Overview
A house with a refrigerator, sump pump and air conditioner to keep running through an outage is the target for this generator. It runs on gasoline or propane and starts from a button or a key fob.
Large running output and the choice of two fuels are the reason to buy, with a transfer switch ready outlet to power a panel through one cord. The listing gives no load level for the runtime figure, and it is a hefty machine to move.
Who it's for
A homeowner who wants to run major appliances through an outage using gasoline or propane. A camper, tailgater or apartment dweller who wants something small should choose a lighter inverter model.
Pros and cons
- Dual fuel flexibility
- Remote electric start with key fob
- Transfer switch ready outlets
- Fuel gauge and hour meter
- Heavy even with the wheel kit
- Runtime load level not stated
- Fuel limited to gasoline and propane
Performance notes
Running watts are what the generator can supply continuously, and peak watts are a short surge for starting motors, so appliances must be added up against the running figure. Automatic voltage regulation holds output steady as the load changes, and a low oil shutdown protects the engine. The data display shows volts, frequency and hours, which tells you when maintenance is due.
