I have been thinking on adding a generator to my. Inventory. Thinking on one that burns gas or propane also. Looking at price range of around $750 to a grand. Advice or recommendations greatly Appreciated

Westinghouse IGEN4500DF. It’s the most bang for your buck for an inverter generator.

I’ll never own another air cooled conventional generator.
too heavy, too loud, dirty power that sucks up gas.

spend the money and get an inverter generator. So much easier and bearable to live with

I have a dual fuel Firman from Costco. Runs gas and propane and has a lifetime warranty plus the costco return policy.

I just bought a CAT2000 inverter from Lowe's. It looks simple to use and is supposed to be extremely quiet. It can run for six hours at half power. All I really want to run is my refrigerator, a lamp, and a fan.

I have two Honda 2k inverter generators.

They’re hands down the best and I can link them if I need more power for whatever reason.

Just bought my second 3500 predator. It's so fricking sweet.

Going to get a parallel kit for it.

Change the plug to NGK and do a carbon canister delete. YouTube it.

It's awesome. 9-10 hours on 2.6 gallons.

Ran two fridges, lights, tv, and 2 windown units (5k and 8k btu).

Turn off and AC and wash clothes.

I have a duel fuel that’s 10000. Propane makes it like 8k but I burn a standard bottle in 8 hrs running a 16x80 trailer. That’s with a 4 ton central air. The only thing I don’t run is my 220 stuff like hot water heater. If I run that I shut off all my other shite and let it run for while I need it. Otherwise it’s all cut off and we run fridge, freezer, chest fresher, central air, and 3 bedrooms with teen boys that don’t know how to turn anything off and have tons of shite charging at all times.
