Portable engine-generator Einhell TC-IG 2000 — 2000 W, 230 V, 4 L fuel tank, red

The Einhell TC-IG 2000 portable engine-generator delivers mains-grade power where no socket is available. Rated at 2000 W peak and 1800 W continuous output at 230 V, this petrol-powered generator features a 4‑litre fuel tank for extended runtime, inverter technology for stable voltage, a noise-reducing covered housing and a compact, transportable red design weighing approximately 21.5 kg. Two 230 V sockets and two USB ports allow connection of tools, appliances and mobile devices while safety functions such as overload protection and low-oil cut-out protect the unit and connected equipment.

Advantages

The inverter-equipped 4-stroke engine supplies current without voltage peaks, enabling safe operation of sensitive electronics. A 4 L fuel tank extends operating time between refills and the closed housing reduces operating noise. Integrated safety features include an overload switch and an oil shortage fuse to prevent damage. The unit is designed for easy transport and handling thanks to a carrying handle and rubberised feet that ensure stable placement during operation.

Suitable for

• Temporary power backup at home and in detached buildings
• Small construction sites and outdoor workshops
• Camping, events and recreational use in remote locations
• Allotment gardens, garages and hobby rooms

How to use

Place the generator on a stable, level surface using the rubberised feet and ensure adequate ventilation. Fill the 4 L fuel tank with the recommended petrol and check the engine oil level before starting. Start the engine using the pull cable, allow the unit to reach operating speed, then connect devices to the 230 V sockets or USB ports. Observe the generator’s rated continuous power (1800 W) and avoid connecting loads that exceed the maximum output. If the overload switch activates or the low-oil cut-out engages, disconnect loads and stop the engine to investigate and remedy the cause.

Usage recommendations

To prolong service life and ensure reliable operation, use fresh fuel, check oil regularly, and run the generator periodically if stored for long periods. Keep the unit dry and clean, avoid enclosed spaces, and follow local regulations for petrol storage and operation.
