keep in mind that when running on propane, you aren't getting the full 2kw peak. That rating is using gas. propane produces 10-15% less. Not a deal breaker for most, just something to know before going into if you are planning to max it out.

I've used a Duromax XP2000EH for three years now. I have over 400 hours on it. I've used I through three major hurricanes now in Louisiana for 5+ days straight during each.

On propane, I can run a normal refrigerator/freezer and a 5k BTU window unit. With various other electronics. Normally get around 12h on a 20lb tank.

Note the Amazon model includes the 12v adaptor, and the Walmart model swaps it for the set of USB charging ports.

After looking at Wirecutter's reviews, this generator is rated well but totally left out of the conversation for its lack of Carbon Monoxide detection feature. I would think as long as you keep it away from the house, that it's not really an issue?
You can always put a sensor next to it.

I just bought two because screw these recent two Texas power outages. I have two fridges and our bedroom is far away from the fridges. Is the add on Walmart service plan worth it at $58 per generator? Also, does anyone know the best type of extension cables to use when running the power cables into the home?

How do you folks use these generators? Long extension cords running from outside to inside? It's hard to keep lots of things running that way? Or do you have transfer switch?

Costco sells a 2 pack of 50ft 12/3 Heavy Duty Extension Cords, usually around $40-$50. Getting longer cables will increase resistance and the amount of current will shave off a little bit.

It should be repeated that carbon monoxide detectors are a very cheap way to survive something that kills a lot of people.

These size generators are not meant to keep your quality of life standards going during an outage. Just meant to keep your essentials like your fridge, CPAP machine, etc going. As a result, you usually just have one cable (maybe two) going into the house.

Can this run a basement sump pump? Sorry newbie
In general, you're going to be dealing with either a 1/3HP or a 1/2HP sump pump. Find out which one you have. A 1/3HP sump pump will be about 600-800 watts while running, with start up watts around 1,300-1,600. A 1/2HP sump pump will be about 800-1,000 watts while running and will have start up watts ranging from 1,500-2,150. A 2,000-watt generator is the smallest size that you will want to attempt to run your pump — especially if you have a 1/2hp pump. The starting watts of a 1/2hp pump may very well exceed the capacity of a small 2,000-watt generator. Even if it does start it, you'll be putting it to the absolute limit by doing so. I'd personally recommend a 3500 watt or higher generator, which you could then use for other things. Plenty of wattage calculators and charts online to help with your research.

I would do something more permanent and do a though the wall installation. They sell kits for this, that way there is no need to have a window open with a cord running though it. I personally would build my own kit as this seems expensive to me, but its an all in one solution.

Are these generators waterproof? Since you can't run them inside, are they safe to operate standing in the rain? Even if you put it as close as possible to the house, during a heavy downpour it would still get pretty wet I imagine.

Or do you run these from a garage with the doors open or something?

Thanks for this great idea. I agree, DIY will be a fraction of the cost.

Running in a garage even with the doors open is a bad idea. They are made to be outside. An improvised rain shelter like a patio umbrella wouldn't be the worst idea but it's unnecessary. Just make sure your extension cords are in good condition.
