Our take on the Tomahawk TG17000i 17,000 Watt Inverter Generator Electric Start

The Tomahawk TG17000i is a large gasoline inverter generator with 17,000 peak watts and 14,500 running watts from a 760cc engine. It pairs inverter power with electric start, a CO sensor that shuts the unit down in high carbon monoxide, low-oil shutdown and overload protection. A 10-gallon tank runs up to 10 hours at half load, and it rolls on heavy-duty wheels at 300 lbs. It is a whole-home or jobsite class machine, not a tailgate unit.

Questions and answers

How much can the TG17000i actually run?
It delivers 14,500 running watts and 17,000 peak watts, enough for a whole house's essentials or heavy jobsite tools. Peak watts only cover motor startup surges, so keep continuous load under 14,500 watts.
How long does it run on a full tank?
Up to 10 hours at 50% load on its 10-gallon tank. At higher loads, expect shorter runtime and more frequent refueling.
Is it quiet enough for a neighborhood?
It is rated 72 dB at 23 feet, which is loud for a suburban backyard. Place it away from windows and doors and expect it to be heard by neighbors.
Does it have a CO shutoff?
Yes. A carbon monoxide sensor automatically shuts the generator off when CO levels get high. It is not a substitute for running the unit outdoors, away from openings.
Can one person move it?
It weighs 300 lbs, so moving it on its wheels on flat ground is manageable, but loading it into a truck takes two people or a ramp.
What comes in the box?
The generator, wheels and handles for assembly, and the owner's manual. Check the listing for whether a battery for electric start and any cords are included.
