Complete Package

The documentation is complete and shows all technical info for the proper maintenance of this unit. The tool kit and funnel are a welcomed inclusion. I like the ability to keep the battery charged with the included AC adapter. This thing has all the bells and whistles.
I would recommend this to a friend!

WGEN9500DF First Impression
on January 13, 2022
Posted by: Jerry100
from Charlotte, NC
I just got the generator and am impressed with the features and choice of receptacles. The key fob is a convenient plus. The dual fuel option really makes it a true standby for anything generator because I always have 20 lbs tanks of propane around that never goes stale, and sometimes getting gasoline can be a problem with a major power outage. The frame is robust as I would expect for a heavy generator. It is not as quiet as the generator in my motorhome, but I did not expect it to be. After putting it together and filling the engine with oil, I ran it on propane to test it. Using the key fob to start it, it started on a cold day in the 20's on the second crank. After letting it warm up, I loaded it up with 1000 watts of lighting, a 1500 watt heater, and a 15 amp (1800 watt) air compressor. I never noticed any strain at all and the volts and hertz on the meter remained consistent, no dips. I am very pleased with my purchase. Two things to note though. (1) The 1.16 qt bottle of oil was not quite enough oil to get a good level on the dipstick, so I had to go buy an extra quart to top it off. (2) I really wish the wheels had rubber tread like you see on push lawnmowers rather than the hard plastic tread. I'm kind of a sceptic on the longevity of the wheels. Time will tell if the wheels hold up.

kinda weird features, but works great

instructions good, included stuff pretty complete so good, starting went good...the kinda weird #1 why a remote when you are supposed to shut off fuel and AC power to shut down can't do that with a remote, if you do it right can't start it either B+ should be off...#2- oil-they send a quart and the instructions say 1.1 qt. so why not either make it 1qt. or send 1.1 qts ?? #3 noise level is weird too- the db is as expected but the weird part is the level seems the same outside the shop as it is 100ft.away. I know that this seems wrong but hay that is the way it is.......
