Remote start, 50 amp and dual fuel is a no brainer

Bought this as an upgrade to my old 30amp 6500 generator. 12500 kw start-up. Electric start works awesome. Hooked up a 20 lb tank hit the remote start and it cycled twice and ran like a champ. Love the dual fuel capabilities to run propane tanks, much easier to refill vice gas tank. 50amp RV outlet will be connected to a home transfer switch to run entire panel. Way cheaper than a whole home generator, just not automatic.

We bought this last month after a huge wind storm leaving us without power for 3 days. A neighbor helped us with the decision because he has the same model and it worked like a charm for his family. The Quick Start Guide relieved my worry as it's a piece of cake to set up and run. Dang, it's a heavy bugger and getting the wheels and feet on takes 2 people, but it's done!

Power Protection Peace of Mind

Easy setup. Hookup was straight forward. Freight packaging was secure delivering peace of mind that our generator arrived in perfect condition. We tested power strength capabilities on all our desired home utilities. No issues. We are confident that when power goes out next time we will be comfortable and all our appliances will be protected.

Not recommended

I bought this generator a little over a year ago. I initially set it up, ran it and all was good. I even pulled it out of my garage and ran it every so often. When a predicted snow/ice storm came out, I pulled the generator out and put it where I'd be using it if power went out. Only problem, every time I started it, the CO light would flash and off it went. This was in an open area. I have tried several times in differing spots with no luck. It has never really been used, just started periodically. I'm so disappointed. Please advise on how this can be fixed.

Easy Set Up. Solid Construction. Easy Start.

Generator looks great and appears sturdy. Easy to assemble with wheels and provided tools. Also included engine oil is convenient. But follow instructions for initial start up on the actual generator fuel tank. The "quick start" guide is incomplete for that. Once all connections made and valves open, starting generator up is a breeze. Noise is 85 db.

Great Generator for the money!

I purchased this machine on 1/31/26 and I'm glad I did. The build quality is excellent and the measured THD was below 12% ( I was expecting something around 20% or more) and it powers my 4 ton Air Conditioner and the house with no problem. I was also pleasantly surprised to see in the owners manual the instructions on how you proceed if you need a floating neutral so you can safely wire it directly to your electrical system. Everything I needed to get going was included and I'm genuinely happy with my purchase. I will likely purchase one of their smaller Inverter models in the next month or so to supplement my solar system.

Great Futures

So far it's been Working Great for what I've used it for. Main use is for temporary Power during Storms, Ive tested it and runs all the essential Equipment inside my Home until Power is restored. It's pretty quite for the Design and love the Remote Start Future.

Love at First Sight

After the snow storm we walked into the store and the first thing we saw was this generator that could run on gasoline, propane and natural gas. We worried about losing power during the whole storm so we found a salesperson because no matter what, we could get at least one of the fuels to run the generator. No more worries!

Great generator

Bought this when the ice storm started in Tennessee on 1/25/26 and lost power for days and I brought this thing home, started it up and it was a champ. Powered my fridge multiple heaters, WiFi, tv's and never flinched. I couldn't have asked for anything better. Awesome!!

Great generator

Easy unpacking and set up. Instructions are informative. Watch the oil level when adding the oil. There will be some left inside the bottom due to testing at the facility. Just do a walk around to see where choke and fuel cut off is located. Then you are all set.
