Today I look at the new Dinking DK2300i-M inverter generator. After a quick unboxing, I head straight into sound testing, and electrical load testing, and I finish up with a parallel test with a Harbor Freight Predator 1600/2000 generator. This new inverter generator from Dinking Power Machinery is smaller, lighter, cheaper, AND it makes more power than the comparable Harbor Freight Predator inverter generator. This little generator would be perfect for use with smaller RV’s and/or campers… or even while tent camping in a campground. It might be a bit small to be considered “backup power” or a “backup generator”, or for use as full time power in an off grid living situation, but it might be a good supplemental power supply to a full solar system on cloudy days. It could be very useful in multiple emergency situations. It’s always handy to have a compact generator available at all times…. you never know what can happen.
If you’re not familiar with Dinking, that’s okay… they’ve been around for over a decade making many other Inverter Generators under different brand names, and private label for retail stores. Some of the other generator brands they have been manufacturing are names like “Genmax” “Duromax” “Maxpeedingrods” and I also highly suspect they are the manufacturer for many of the Harbor freight Predator line of generators. I can’t prove that with 100% certainty, but a lot of the Dinking produced generators have many of the exact same components and features as the Harbor Freight Predators. If Dinking does NOT make the Predator, I would be VERY surprised, and I would wonder how a different manufacturer has access to many of the identical components that are used by Dinking. This little inverter generator is very impressive for it’s size. It runs very quiet, it’s easy to start, it makes VERY “CLEAN” electricity and best of all, it’s cheaper than the comparable competition. What’s not to like? If you’re in the market for a new inverter generator in this size category, be sure to look at this new Dinking DK2300i-M inverter generator. It’s hard to beat.
Thanks for watching.
