Review: Pretty good for the price - Pretty good for the price. I have another closed frame inverter, which is "better". It's quieter, comes with a power supply to charge the battery, is A LOT quieter, includes more breakers, has automatic choke, has a digital display with more information, more ports... but it's also twice the weight and twice the cost for the same power output! I bought this guy as a backup, but it's now my primary because it's easier to deal with, and all that other stuff doesn't matter as long as it supplies the power I need during an outage. If I had it to do over again, I would have bought two of these. I have used this one twice for prolonged outages and it works great.
Review: Great all around generator - I wanted a quiet, multi-fuel, portable, whole house generator. And that's exactly what I got. An early warning though - this unit is not light. Don't think that you are going to throw it into the back of a pickup truck and like you would a more portable unit unless you have some help. Having said that, it does have 4 wheels and wheel-barrow-style handles to move it around.....and moving it is not a problem. When I need to use it, I will just roll it out of my garage and plug it into my electrical panel. It arrived on a skid just days after I ordered it. Exactly as advertised. Once you cut the box away it's easy to roll it off the skid.....just use part of the box as a ramp. It was well packaged with no damage at all. I read all directions, hooked my 20lb propane tank to it, and it started right up (you need to add oil first). Easy step-by-step. Anyone can do it. When my electricians arrived to install a transfer switch next to my electrical panel, they were intrigued that this unit could be powered by propane, natural gas, or gasoline. Once they finished the installation, we hooked up the generator to the house and turned it on. My entire house worked without a hitch. I have a 3,000 square foot house and turned everything I could on to see how much wattage was being used. I don't have the specs, but the electrician said I had room to spare. All this while just having it run by propane. The unit comes with the hoses for propane and natural gas. I have an outdoor grill on natural gas so all I had to do was purchase an expansion coupler to accommodate the bigger 1/2" gas fitting. This unit is quiet when running, but keep in mind that it still makes noise....mind your neighbors. I highly recommend this Pulsar generator. It was less expensive than the "higher-end" brands, but it is a great product. I won't be using for anything other than in case of power outages, so I'm not concerned about issues with over-use. It does seem like this product would last a long time. It is solidly built.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long will a 20lb propane tank run this generator?**
A: If it was filled properly and fully, expect around 4.5 hours at 1/2 load. If you tank came from one of those 'convenient' exchange places where they short you 25%, in the name of safety; of course; expect a bit over 3.

Tom

**Q: Can two of these run in parallel?**
A: Not very well. Inverter based generators, like our PG4000 and PG2300 types are better suited for parallel operation.

Tom

**Q: Are the wheels too wide to go thru a doorway?**
A: I purchased the unit and before I had it installed I stored it in the garage. I entered the garage through the side door which is a standard door size and it went through with no problems. Unit looks ultra large, but is is not as large as it looks. It is a good unit. First time out I ran it for 6 hours on propane and it used less than a quater of a 30 gal. tank. I am very pleased with mine.

**Q: What about powering computer equipment such as servers, network equipment, camera systems, etc..etc..?**
A: That sounds expensive and possibly delicate. Please consider using a robust inline power conditioner or UPS system. The generator makes plenty of power, your concern should be the integrity of the waveform. Server equipment is probably looking for a very clean sine wave.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Runs well on propane, adjust rpm for proper frequency
*by U***S on September 29, 2024*

I won't use gasoline to avoid fuel storage and longevity issues for times it doesn't get used, but propane works great with this generator. I ran it on my home circuit for 6-7 hours on a 20lb tank. It varies but it was about a constant 2500 watt load. I did have issues initially with the generator outputting too high s frequency. I understand it does this to compensate for a full load and it would settle around 59hz when it is fully loaded. But I was getting 64.5hz with no load, and my home load still didn't bring it below 62hz. This caused my UPS battery backup's throughout the home to trip over to battery mode and never charge on generator power. After some research I found you can adjust the RPM with a screwdriver and a wrench via the linkage to the carb. I turned it to be at 60.2hz while it running my usual home load. Now the UPS's accept the power and no longer trip. It starts up quickly and easily with push button or pull start. Assembly was easy as well. It will come on a pallet from a truck with a lift gate, so be prepared to have a way to move it or assemble where they leave it. Tips for oil changes, I cut a small jug the height of the frame and slid it under for easy draining with no mess. I ran mine for the 5 hours they recommended with synthetic 5w30, then I drained and replaced with the same oil, ran it for 5 minutes, then changed it again so I know it's ready for service and all the break in metal is removed. I think for $200 more I could have gotten a similar one with a remote start, I probably would have rather done this but it's working just fine for me.
