Description
The Ryobi RYi4022X is made with a Ryobi OHV 4-stroke engine that is 212 cc and runs on gasoline. It has a 120V output and a running power of 3,400W and a peak power of 4,000W. The noise level of the inverter generator is 72 dBA, which is just a little louder than a shower. Ryobi’s EasyStart pull-start system is used to start the generator (more information below ). With a full tank, the RYi4022X can run for about 12 hours at 0.5 load on its 3.3-gallon fuel tank (fuel consumption is approximately 0.28 GPH). As the RYi4022X makes a clean sine wave with a Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of less than 3%, you can safely plug sensitive electronics into the AC outlets.
Outlets
The control panel has 5 AC outlets: two 120V 20A (5-20R) duplexes and a 120V 30A (TT-30R) plug-in.
This Ryobi generator is ready for an RV because it has a TT-30R (TT stands for “Travel Trailer”) receptacle.Features
In the event that the oil level is too low, the device’s light indicator will turn on.
The automatic low oil shut-off and overload protection (circuit breaker) on the generator provide you with security and peace of mind when using it.It also gains from Ryobi’s CO DETECT technology, which tracks the amount of carbon monoxide produced while the generator is running.The generator will turn off automatically if it is installed improperly and carbon monoxide levels increase to a hazardous level.Though it’s a wonderful extra measure of security, make sure to carry your generator outside at all times.Along with the essential paperwork and an owner’s manual, which is helpful for immediately starting the generator, the Ryobi RYi4022X’s box also contains a tool kit and oil.Mobility
The Ryobi RYi4022X is made with a typical open frame that measures L25 x W15.88 x H21.75 in, This gives it support and stability and lets you raise it above ground level.
This type of design is great for tough environments and heavy outdoor use.The RYi4022X’s dry weight of 85 lbs lets you use it anywhere you need to.Also, it’s easy to move once it’s on the floor because it has wheels and a handle that folds up.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.
