How consistently does the unit start under documented conditions?

Follow the manual exactly and record three ambient-temperature starts plus three heat-soaked restarts. Report attempts, elapsed time, start method, battery state, and any intervention.

Attempts per startStart timeAmbient temperatureStart method

Controlled conditions

Record the exact model, serial number, firmware, sample source, and test date before any measurement.
Log ambient temperature, humidity, elevation, wind, surface, and background sound for every test block.
Record instrument model, range, accuracy, and most recent calibration or verification date.
Repeat timing, starting, and sound measurements three times when conditions allow; publish every valid run.
Keep original notes, load logs, meter exports, photos, and any excluded-run explanation with the result.

Safety gate

Operate fuel-burning equipment outdoors only, far from occupied structures, openings, and ignition hazards, with working carbon-monoxide monitoring for personnel.

Testing is for qualified personnel using correctly rated load equipment and the manufacturer’s required grounding, bonding, clearance, and protective-device instructions.

Never connect a generator directly to building wiring or bypass overload, temperature, battery, GFCI, or carbon-monoxide shutdown protection.

Stop a run for unstable voltage or frequency, overheating, fuel or electrolyte leakage, abnormal sound, damaged wiring, or any manufacturer fault indication.

Badge rule: this product receives no “FMG Tested” label or score benefit until a real unit, instruments, conditions, valid runs, raw records, and limitations are documented under the public protocol.
