Description
The Champion 200911 has an OHV 4-stroke engine that is 224 cc. It runs on gasoline and has a running wattage of 3,350W and a peak wattage of 4,450W. It gives out 120V. The generator is meant to make 68 dBA of noise (quieter than a regular conversation). It uses a simple, traditional pull-start mechanism to get going. With 4.7 gallons of fuel, the 200911 can run for about 14 hours at 0.5 load if the tank is full (fuel consumption is approximately 0.34 GPH). Due to the 200911’s relatively high THD (20%), it’s not a good idea to power sensitive electronics with it.
Outlets
The control panel has 4 AC outlets: two 120V 20A (5-20R) outlets, one 120V 30A (L5-30R) outlet, and one 120V 30A (TT-30R) outlet.
This Champion generator is ready for an RV because it has a TT-30R (TT stands for “Travel Trailer”) plug.Features
To help you monitor the state and activity of the 200911, the control center has an Intelligauge meter that displays voltage, frequency, and lifetime hours.
The generator has an integrated fuel gauge, which enables rapid, simple, and convenient evaluation of its gas level.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.Volt GuardTM, a built-in surge protector from Champion, protects your appliances and electronic devices against voltage peaks.The Champion 200911 also includes a funnel and cover in addition to the standard papers and owner’s manual to get you up and running quickly.Mobility
The Champion 200911 is 23.6 inches long, 23.8 inches wide, and 22.5 inches tall.
It has a typical open frame design that makes it stable and allows it to be raised above ground level.The generator is built to work well outside and in rough places.The generator weighs 108 pounds, so it may be hard to move or transport it by hand, even though it is technically considered “portable” (movable).Still, its wheel kit (dia:8 “) 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 200911 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.
