I bought this after my 5000 W Gen wasn’t enough to run the electric HW heater in my new house. The electric start is great as I wouldn’t want my wife to have to pull start a 420cc motor if needed. The wireless FOB to start it is nice but not 100% necessary. I wanted the dual fuel but there were none in stock at the time. This also pairs nice with my Reliance 10 circuit transfer switch rated at 7500 watts.
