Hi.
Never had one before until now; a plain Coleman 2500 W 120V with BriggsStratton engine.
Measured its output no load, got 150 V AC 44 Hz. Raised RPM controlling the governor, got to 60 Hz and voltage jumped to 195 V AC.
If I want to set RPM to keep 120V, frequency drops. If I want to keep 60Hz, voltage gets too high.
Afraid of plugging light bulbs and burn them.
If anyone has one, how is it supposed to be set or behave ?
