This is a great deal. I'm also a 100899 version owner (same electrical and front panel as this one, but more yellow plastic). I have been happy with it. I have only run mine on propane. Try starting it like the manual says, but I found that if you keep it in the choke/start setting and keep pulling the cord that it will start to sputter to life. Then I quickly rotate the switch to the propane/run setting and away it goes. With that start procedure, it starts with 4-5 pulls from cold.
This generator and mine use the same inverter module so electrically they should be the same. With a 1kW load, I measured 1.56% THD which is pretty clean (cleaner than my home AC).

This is a smoking deal! Thanks for sharing OP. I just ordered one.

I've been wanting to buy this particular model because of its portability and low noise rating. I only plan to plug in a fridge and other small items during power outages so this fits the bill. A lot of reviewers mention they have trouble starting it with propane, but I'll take the chance.

I bought the 2000w dual fuel version in early June for $502 from Amazon. I've used it a few times and love it. Yes it takes a couple of tries to start on Propane but otherwise runs great. With a Supco start cap, it even runs the 15k btu A/C on my camper. Very reasonable noise level.

Edit: I posted a link but I'm dumb.


I'm very tempted. Usually can't find anything dual fuel less than $400 I think. Unless I'm missing something.

Amazon seems to have the same generator, but different color/model #, for the same price. Champion Power Equipment 100900 2000-Watt Dual Fuel Inverter Generator, Ultralight https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08J9NZ9D7/

That's not the same item, the Amazon one is 500w less than the Walmart one

Really tempted after the rolling blackouts last winter. This would be enough to run my furnace(NG) fan and a fridge. I've been waiting fro the 4500-5500 rolling ones but if that's all I run this would be even more efficient. I want dual fuel so that you can run propane if needed.

I have a traditional generator which outputs 30A that I connect to the generator panel. This doesnt seem to have a 30A output. So how do I connect this one to my existing wiring?

Can you parallel these with the original champion models? I have a big yellow gasser that's still ticking

Seems like this particular model has issues with the propane regulator leaking and issues starting with propane

Thanks OP! Been waiting for a deal on dual fuel portable for a month. Not looking to power the whole house just a couple of essentials. Bought one. Now I can rest easier if the power does fail and light enough I can carry it.

I have the 100899 Lowes version of this and it definitely took a few pulls to get it started with propane. But I think that's fairly typical for propane generators. It takes a bit longer to work through the system.

I didn't have any issues with the included regulator. I'm sure if they had issues with that they probably fixed it quickly since it's an external part.

Does this use straight gas or gas/oil mixture?
