Power Comparison

In terms of wattage, the candidate from the Westinghouse iGen2200 may lose one point to its peer. While Westinghouse iGen2200 runs at 1800 watts, the Westinghouse iGen2500 is more powerful with 2200 running watts.

Westinghouse iGen2500 can peak 2500W higher than 2200W of Westinghouse iGen2200. As a result, the Westinghouse iGen2500 model will be more flexible and versatile in powering appliances or engines that need an external boost to start.

Besides, you must consider each model’s runtime. With the same 25% of the maximum capacity, the Westinghouse iGen2200 can provide up to 12 hours of working non-stop, while the Westinghouse iGen2500 only operates up to 10 hours. Therefore, in general, the Westinghouse iGen2200 model gives you longer runtime.

How about their fuel efficiency? This sub-criteria is essential because it decides whether you can save a big deal of money for running the machine with gasoline.

Honestly, these inverter generators are both fuel-efficient. With 25% of the maximum capacity, the Westinghouse iGen2200 and iGen2500 consumes 0.1 gallons per hour

Westinghouse iGen4500 and Predator 3500 both have low THD, suitable for powering sensitive electronic equipment. (Westinghouse iGen2200 <3% THD and Westinghouse iGen2500 <3% THD)

Both have a noise level of 52 dBA.
