Best duel fuel compact inverted generators

Recommended Posts

I searched and most of the posts were years old and as we all know technology is always changing. I’m looking for a compact duel fuel inverted generator, 3500-5000 watts that I can run on the propane from my RV through the quick connect. So it is already regulated. I have only confirmed that one will work so far. These are my top 3 I’m looking at so far.

1. When DF480ix (4800watt) great value and loaded with features. Emailing with an engineer at Wen about it.

2. Wen DF402ix (4000 watt) good value but it is an open inverter generator. Emailing an engineer at Wen about it.

3. Pulsar GD400BN (4000 watt) good value and I know it will work, but the #1 has way more features and only $23 more. 
 

I have compared all these based on size, weight, wattage on propane, features, db ratings and stated run times under stated loads would take x amount of propane. It’s not about the money, it’s about the value. 

What is everyone using and what are the pros and cons of what you have? Should you buy it again? 
Thanks

While mine is not a compact generator, it is pretty easy to move. Actually easier than carrying one of my Honda 2000's and certainly easier than carrying both at the same time. 

I purchased a Westinghouse a few years ago that is a dual fuel. 

 Here it is running for the first time. Still on the pallet it was delivered on. Tried every store in Cape Girardeau, MO. to find one in stock without success. Found on eBay and almost drove to KC to pick it up but the gas cost would have been more than the shipping in my Jeep and I'm not sure if it would fit in the 2 door. 

It rolls easily up my ramp into the truck, you would think going down the ramp would be just as easy, but it's not. At least for me.
