Off to a bad start

I bought 2 of these a month ago and just got them set up for emergency home power. On one the regulator is bad and neither one seems to have the juice to run a shop fan on propane. Something has to be wrong. I have left a message with WH. I will let you know the outcome. Can't recommend them as of this writing. Hopefully that will change soon.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought a week ago, filled it up with the (supplied) 10W30 oil, about 2/3 quart, hooked up to a propane tank--plugged in the battery and electric start started right away!

So far, I have only done the initial start up on my new IGEN4500DF.
Getting to the initial startup was extremely easy.
Hookup the battery via SAE connectors at the back of the machine.
Fill the engine with the provided oil.
Fill the gas tank with gasoline, or hook up your propane hose to the provided regulator and hose.
Turn the fuel source dial to which ever fuel source position you are using.
Turn the ECO mode off, and the battery switch on.
Then do any one of the following: pull the recoil starter, or push the push button start on the front panel, or use the remote start FOB that is provided.
I used the remote start FOB for the first time from in the house, and it fired up on the first attempt. AWESOME!
Full tank of gasoline (3.5gal) shows 21hrs of run time on the digital gauge, with no load drawn from the inverter. Impressive!
I'm going to let it run for about 3hrs, as an initial break-in period.
Taking it camping with us next month, and I will be running it on LP and gasoline then.

I wish there was a specific heavy duty cover for this model, so I could keep it setup on the tongue of my travel trailer all the time, without worry. Let's go Westinghouse, make it happen. A specific cover for this unit, not a one and done universal cover.
I will update after we actually use this camping.
I only gave it 4 stars due to my initial impression, that may go up or down after it is run , used as it is supposed to be.
I would recommend this to a friend!
