We cut the noise level in half by integrating Quiet Technology digital components used in more advanced inverters, and then we created an efficient mechanical design to decrease the overall footprint and weight by up to 20 percent. A quiet, lightweight addition to your RV and a cost-effective power solution, this Open Frame Inverter generator is smaller, quieter, lighterBETTER! Operate your Dual-Fuel generator on gasoline or propane, and easily switch fuels with a quick turn of the fuel selector dial. Using gasoline, the 224cc Champion engine produces 4250 starting watts and 3500 running watts, and will run for 22 hours at 25% load when the 4.0-gallon fuel tank is full. It produces 3825 starting watts and 3150 running watts, and will run for 14 hours at 25% load when using a 20-pound propane tank. This inverter has a 0.6-quart oil capacity and a low oil shut-off sensor, and operates at 64 dBA from 23 feet, which is a bit louder than normal speech. Confidently connect your sensitive electronics since our Open Frame Inverter produces only Clean Power (less than 3% THD). Our Quick Touch Panel offers fast access to controls, while Economy Mode monitors power consumption, and Cold Start Technology ensures a quick start in cold weather. The outlets in this RV Ready inverter include a 120V 30A RV (TT-30R), two 120V 20A household outlets (5-20R) and a 12V DC automotive-style outlet with a dual USB adapter included. Sold separately, the optional ParaLINK Parallel Kit, with included standard 50-amp RV outlet, allows you to increase output by connecting up to two 3000-watt or higher inverter generators. Buy this EPA certified and CARB compliant generator with confidence – Champion Support and our nationwide network of service centers will back up your purchase with a 3-year limited warranty and FREE lifetime technical support. Review: Very high quality - Happy Camper - I bought this for a variety of reasons: - Dual fuel and the ability to run Propane. This generator will be used very rarely, perhaps every two or three years whenever local power goes down. It MUST start when needed. Propane, unlike gasoline, does not deteriorate during long term storage. Therefore I plan to run it with a couple of 100 lb propane tanks. - High ratings. - The Champion website seems well organized. - Complete and well organized user manual, parts list, and wiring diagram. - Competitive, innovative technology and fully featured product range. They offer dual fuel on their smallest generators. - Very reasonable price. - Light enough that I can lift it, should the need arise. - Lots of youtube vids. Comments: - I bought their wheel kit, it installed in about 10 minutes. - At first I was unable to start the generator. A shot of starter fluid got it going for about 5 seconds, then it stalled. I thought it was a spark problem. I called Champion service and got a knowledgeable person on the line in less than 2 minutes. I asked if the low oil shutoff could be stuck. They said it's very rare for that to be a problem. The solution was to pre-load the recoil starter. That's when you pull the cord until you get resistance (about half way), then release the cord, then do a full pull. I did that and it started instantaneously. - The fuel gauge was stuck on empty. Champion service is sending a free replacement. They said it's very easy to replace. - The overall impression is high quality, nothing feels cheap. I was a little skeptical about the EZ start dial, which is a combined gas/propane fuel valve and ignition switch. However, it feels robust and operates with a positive action. It's wonderful to be able to switch from gas to propane with just the flick of the wrist. The propane hose and fittings are top quality, and even include a snazzy removable bracket to hang it on the generator. - Noise is on par with other small generators. But the relatively large 224 cc engine doesn't sound buzzy, more of a subdued rumble. Conclusion: Yes, I recommend this generator. Review: Amazing generator! Plenty of power and multiple connections. - We got this for off grid RVing and it worked flawlessly for our 2 week camping in the boondocks. We work remotely, so it powered our Starlink, computer, printer, and even had enough power to run our small AC unit and microwave, but not simultaneously. It starts very easily, has a large tank for gas and can operate on propane of needed. I really like the gas run-out shutoff that is integrated into the start switch. No more hunting down the fuel switch to run the carb empty. Much better for storage. Do know that it's heavy. About 70lbs, so it's a pig to move. But we appreciate the quiet so moving it 100ft away is still worth it. I'll work on building a little wagon for it lol. ## Features - ADVANCED DIGITAL HYBRID DESIGN: 50% quieter and 20% lighter than a traditional Champion 3500-watt generator, plus our Economy Mode feature saves fuel and extends engine life - DUAL FUEL: This RV Ready inverter operates on gasoline or propane and has a 120V 30A RV, plus two 120V 20A household outlets and 12V DC outlet with dual USB adapter - QUIET TECHNOLOGY: 64 dBA is great for RVs, tailgating, your next project or home backup, with 4250 starting watts and 3500 running watts for up to 22 hours run time on gasoline.
