**Q: whats the gas tank size?**
A: Hello, the gas tank on the Cat RP3600 is 4.5 gallons (17 liters). Hope this answers your question!

**Q: Have you ran a welder from this? If so, what was your experience?**
A: Hello, the Cat RP3600 has 1x 120 volt TT-30 outlet so as long as the welder in question doesn't require 240 volt and doesn't require more than 27 amps continuously the RP3600 should have no problem running the welder. If your welder requires more power, we recommend looking at one of our larger models like the RP5500, RP6500 E, or RP7500 E. Hope this helps!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Ol' Faithful!
  

*by E***Y on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2020*

I've had this genny fot a year and a half and where I live trees fall on power lines all the time. This is my 4th generator, before this one I used Honda's.  This is more powerful and more fuel efficient.  It powers my router, 60" TV, Cable box, Sound bar, 3 lamps and my fridge for over 12 hours w/ about a 1/4 tank of gas left, the most I ever tested it.  Its very well built. I never even changed the oil since I first started it and I have about 100 hours of it running.  Very easy to use and move around (it's very well balanced and solid like all CAT's).  My 75 year old mother can move and operate it, including start-pull, which seems to be always on the 2nd pull.  I live in PA where it can get both hot and very cold and it purrs like a kitten regardless of weather.  I highly reccomend.

    Made in china
  

*by J***X on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2021*

Seems like a well built machine I like all the controls right in the front. Unfortunately it is made in china and the puddle of oil underneath it every time I run it explains it.  Still works it just loses a bit of oil
