Simple setup and love the dual fuel and remote

I'm going to use this as a whole house standby in case of storms. I like the dual fuel option, but my plan is to only use propane, so I stocked up on 4 spare 20lb tanks. Propane puts out slightly less power but lasts forever. The generator went together easily, just the feet and wheels needed assembly and of course oil fill and battery connection. It came with oil and a oil fill, very nice. I connected to propane with the included hose and regulator to my tank, pressed the start button and after just a second or two of cranking it fired right up (on propane no issues). This unit even with reduced power to 8500 watts is more than enough for the 30amp twist lock connector. My electrician comes next week to install a 30amp interlock, then i can try it out as a test. My amp measurements show short of my electric dryer it should power everything including my two split AC systems and oil fired burner with no problem. The remote is added bonus as I can start the unit from inside after switching the breaker panel over. I expect it will be very handy in bad weather.

Awesome Features

I decided to purchase this during the wrath of Hurricane Sally. I had been wanting a generator and being without power for 4 days helped me to decide that I needed a generator which can handle freezers, refrigerator and most importantly the beer fridge. The electric start feature is fabulous and a must for me.

Appears solid and meets expectations

Initial test shows that the generator works seamlessly with my manual transfer switch and propane input. Assembly was easy, but female portion of bolts that hold the feet have a defect and I couldn't attach one of the bolts.
The generator started up first try, and although loud (expected) I look forward to a powerful solution next time the power goes out.

Works Beautifully,

I’ve run this generator through its paces, including different loads and switching fuels in midstream. It’s responsive. It’s easy to start on either fuel. It switches smoothly between fuels while running. I couldn’t ask for anything better I believe.

Generators starts right up, can use propane
on October 3, 2020

Installed a hook up right to my breaker panel. The electrician that did this also bought the WGen9500DF. It started right up. I enjoy the electric and remote start way more than I thought I would. Nice. I particularly like the ability to use propane. Then I don't have to worry about the gas in the tank going bad (even with extenders). I just got a couple extra propane tanks (they work on my grill). This generator is a great, and much less expensive, way to get power to our house. I am ready for the next power outage.
