Description
The Energizer eZV3200P has a 208 cc Energizer OHV 4-stroke engine that gives off 120V, uses gasoline, and puts out 2,800W while running and 3,200W at its peak. Also, since it can work in parallel (INVEZVPLKIT is not included), this power can be doubled by connecting it to another unit that works with it. This inverter generator has a noise level of 52 dBA, which is just a little louder than a refrigerator. It can be started with a pull-start mechanism or a convenient, easy-to-use electric starter (battery included). The eZV3200P can also be started from a distance, which makes it even more convenient (key fob included). With a full tank, the eZV3200P can run for up to 15.5 hours on its 1.95-gallon fuel tank (fuel consumption is approximately 0.13 GPH). The eZV3200P makes a clean sine wave. With a Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of less than 2%, you can safely plug sensitive electronics into its AC outlets. This low THD is made possible by Energizer’s Dual Wave Technology, which controls both voltage and current to make a pure sine wave output, no matter how much load is on the device.
Outlets
On the control panel, there are 3 AC outlets: a duplex 120V 20A (5-20R) outlet and a 120V 30A (L5-30R) outlet. It also has 1 DC outlet, which is a 12V 5A receptacle that makes it easy to charge your batteries. Even though this Energizer generator isn’t quite RV-ready, an L5-30P to TT-30R adapter makes it easy to connect it to an RV.
Features
The control center of the eZV3200P has a handy meter that shows voltage, frequency, and lifetime hours. This helps you keep track of its status and activity. In addition to this information, the generator has a number of lights that tell you when it is ready, when the oil level is too low, and when it is overloaded. The inverter generator has a built-in fuel gauge that makes it quick, easy, and convenient to find out how much gas is in it. As far as safety goes, the device has an automatic shut-off for low oil and a circuit breaker for overheating, so you can use it without worrying. The Energizer eZV3200P comes with the standard paperwork and an owner’s manual, which will help you get started quickly. It also comes with a tool kit, battery charging cables, a key fob, and a funnel.
Mobility
The encased inverter generator design of the Energizer eZV3200P (L22.8 x W16.7 x H17.5 in) makes it look better than any ordinary open frame product. The design fits with what’s popular now and is perfect for generating power for fun. The 96-pound weight of the eZV3200P makes it easy to take it anywhere. Also, it’s easy to move once it’s on the ground because it has two wheels and a handle that folds up.

- We compared more than 500 portable generators at 50% load. We found that there is “skewed right” distribution for the difference between 50% load and 25% load and the median comes at 1.43. With this number we converter all the 25% load runtime to 50% load. Same with the propane efficiency, where median is 1.38.
- For some generators where propane runtime was not given, we used NIST 1994 GGE (Gasoline Gallon Equivalent) formula: 5.66 lbs. of propane = 1 gal of gasoline. All propane runtime is for 20 lbs. propane tank (4.7 gallons).
- Unlike many other sites, we actually tried to find out information about each of the above requirements. However, we are human and are therefore capable of the odd oversight or mistake. Please let us know if you spot any missing or erroneous values so that we can fix them.
About the Manufacturer
Energizer Holdings, Inc., a company that was established in 1896, is best known for producing Energizer, Varta, Rayovac, and Eveready batteries. However, Energizer has worked in a variety of industries over the course of its existence, including power generation. Most of the power generators offered by Energizer Brands LLC, a division of Energizer Holdings, Inc., are portable and come in both conventional and inverted designs. Although their manufacturing is outsourced to other countries, all Energizer generators are designed and supported in North America.
Warranty Information
The warranty for the Energizer eZV3200P lasts for up to 3 years. This warranty may not cover all parts of the generator or may only cover certain parts. For more information about Energizer generator warranties, call 1-877-528-3772 and ask for Energizer Customer Support. Check Energizer Website for more information.
