The Excel Power XL2200E is an open-frame petrol generator that sits at number 9 in this guide, priced at £199.00. Its headline pair of numbers is the one that mostly survives a second look: the bullets claim 2300W peak against 2000W continuous, a 300W gap, and the spec field headed "Output Wattage" agrees at 2000 Watts. That is the pattern this guide keeps checking for — the big number is the starting figure, the smaller one is what you run appliances on.

Elsewhere the same page argues with itself. "Running Wattage" is listed as 2300 Watts, which is the peak figure, and "Starting Wattage" repeats the same 2300 Watts, so the table contradicts the 2000W continuous figure in the bullets. "Total Power Outlets" reads 1 while the bullets advertise dual UK 13A sockets, and the Frequency field says 60 Hz. The star breakdown supplied with the listing adds up to 100 ratings across the five bands, while the rating count on the same listing reads 40. Everything on this page — the 15 litre tank, the up-to-8-hour runtime, the 36 kg, the 66 dB, the 3 year warranty — comes from that Amazon listing and the reviews left on it, not from any test of ours.
