Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. And today, we're gonna take a look at this Champion 6,250-watt portable gas inverter generator. If you're looking for an open frame inverter generator that is 50% quieter and 20% lighter than a traditional 5,000-watt portable generator and will have enough power to provide power for your RV, at the job site, or keeping the lights on and appliances running during a power outage at your home, this might be a great option for you to consider. This 6,250 watt inverter generator provides a portable power source that will also safely charge and run your sensitive electronic devices, such as your HDTVs and your computers. Now, taking a look at the control panel here, we see we have an engine switch that's gonna turn this on and prepare it for startup.
And then, we have our economy mode switch, which we'll talk about a little bit later. And then, our choke that you're going to use when you start up your generator. And then, the Intelligauge that is going to provide four modes. First is gonna be a digital meter for displaying your voltage, and then your frequency in hertz, and then your run time, and then your total run time, and then an AC overload reset button. And then, moving down here to these series of lights, we have our output indicator light.
This light is going to stay on during normal operating conditions. It's gonna turn off when the generator is overloaded. Speaking of overloads, the second light here is gonna be our overload indicator light. This is gonna turn on when the generator is overloaded and the power receptacles are cut. And then, third, is going to be our low oil warning indicator light.
As you can see, we also have these circuit breakers, and these are push-to-reset circuit breakers that are gonna help ensure safe use. And then, looking at our outlets, we have one 12-volt DC eight-amp automotive outlet. And this is also going to include a dual 2.4-amp USB port adapter. So this is gonna be great for charging your smartphones, your tablets, and other USB-powered devices. So this adapter is included with the generator.
And again, you'll just slide it into that port. And then, taking a look at our other outlets, we have four AC 20-amp GFCI 5-20R outlets. So that's gonna be great for your household appliances. And then, we have one 120-volt, 240-volt AC 30-amp locking L14-30R outlet. So as you can see, these outlet covers are going to be great for keeping your outlets protected and covered when not in use, so it's gonna keep out moisture, debris, and other things that could get in there. The power line frequency is 60 hertz, and this does feature an easy-to-access ground terminal. Hopefully, you can see that right there. So that's gonna be your easy access ground terminal. And we have our muffler here. And then, going back to our wide view, this does have an easy-to-access and very easy-to-use fold-out handle that you will install when you pull this out of the box. It has a nice kinda like a neoprene-textured or material handle there that'll give you a comfortable grip. And then, that's just going to drop down when not in use. Speaking of mobility, we have eight-inch-in-diameter wheels that is gonna help you easily move this from place to place, around your RV, or around your campsite, or around your house. And again, just use that handle to pull or push this where you need it. And the easy-to-start recoil handle is going to offer you reliable startup even in cold weather. This features a 301-cc Champion engine that uses standard unleaded gas. So there's not gonna be any need to mix gas or oil. And the tank itself has a 4.2-gallon capacity, and it has an easy-to-read gas gauge. And it's probably a little bit difficult for you to see at that angle, but this gas gauge is indeed gonna be easy to read when you're looking straight down at it. And you're always going to know how much fuel you have left. Something else I wanted to point out is that the fuel cap here is tethered with this chain. So you're not gonna have to worry about easily losing that cap. Now, going back to our closeup view here, this does take SAE 10W-30 oil, and it has a 1.2-quart oil capacity. And I wanted to show you here, the oil fill is right here. And then, what is really nice about this is this features a quick-drain oil tube that's going to make maintenance very easy. So it has a little wire here that holds this tube into place. Let me move that there so you can see it. And so when you're ready to drain your oil, you can just un
