Description
The Champion 75531i has a 171 cc 4-stroke Champion engine. It has a 120V output, runs on gas, and has a running wattage of 2,800W and a peak wattage of 3,100W. The pull-start mechanism on the inverter generator is standard. It has a noise level of 58 dBA (less noisy than a conversation at home). The 75531i can run for up to 8 hours on a full tank of 1.6 gallons of gas (fuel consumption is approximately 0.2 GPH). The 75531i makes a clean sine wave with a Total Harmonic Distortion of less than 3%, so it’s safe to plug sensitive electronics into the AC outlets (THD).
Outlets
On the control panel, there are 3 AC outlets: a duplex 120V 20A (5-20R) outlet and a 120V 30A (TT-30R) outlet.
It also has 1 DC outlet: a 12V 8A receptacle that makes it easy to charge your batteries.This Champion generator is ready for an RV because it has a TT-30R (TT stands for “Travel Trailer”) plug.Features
The lights let you know if the generator is ready, if it is overloaded, or if it doesn’t have enough oil.
As for safety, the device has an automatic shut-off when it runs out of oil, so you can use it without worry.The Champion 75531i comes with basic instructions and an owner’s manual that will help you start the generator quickly.It also comes with a tool kit, battery charging cables, and a funnel.Mobility
The Champion 75531i’s unique encased inverter generator design (L22.4 x W17.3 x H18.3 in) makes it look better than any other open-frame product.
The goal of this modern design is to give recreational users the best way to get power.Since the 75531i weighs only 83.8 lbs, you can take it anywhere you need power.It can also be moved easily thanks to its two wheels (diameter:5.5 “) and its handle that folds up, once it’s on the ground.Product Videos

- 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
A US-based producer of power equipment, Champion Power Equipment was established in 2003.
The comparatively tiny business has established a name for itself in the portable generator market as well as the larger power equipment market, with a concentration on heavy duty machinery like log cutters, snow blowers, chipper shredders, etc.Their whole product line is American-engineered.The corporation does not, however, disclose the country of origin of its parts.Warranty Information
There is a warranty on the Champion 75531i for up to 3 years.
This warranty may not cover all parts of the generator or may only cover certain parts.Champion’s warranty policies can tell you more about how long the warranty on a Champion generator lasts.You can also call their customer service line at 1-877-338-0999.
