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.

Quote from Stinch :
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.
https://www.amazon.com/Reliance-C...0743BQDT4/
I have one of these wall kits and they are easy to install-an hour at most. Read the instructions first and then test it after installation. They have a good install video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOG0qCDutWg.

I run one 12/3 extension off the top row of plugs and another off the bottom and then distribute power through the house off those extension cords. I'm running a 7000 watt genny.

It is critical you don't go cheap on the cords or else you will have problems like a fire so be smart. I recommend 12/3 only as main extension cords off the panel and then you can go a little lower like 14/3 but honestly, 12/3 ensures no issues and allows you max flexibility without dealing with which cord is 12/3 or 14/3 or a family member not knowing which to use if you arent around.

They are pricey but shop carefully and build up your inventory when they are "cheaper".

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.
Okay great, thank you. Makes sense! 😀👍

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?
lots of people install these (usually bigger ones) for semi-regular use in a plastic resin shed (obviously modification to the shed is necessary for exhaust and air intake) but for occasional use, a half sheet of plywood and a half dozen cinder blocks would keep this dry. My camping shelter setup is a piece of plywood with legs on hinges, it folds up flat and the back is lower then the front, allowing for easier access and allowing the rain to be directed down grade. if you are getting wind, stake it down or put weight on the plywood.

1600 running watts seems like a bad investment when there are other similar sized/priced units now that have the full 2000 running watts.

This model seems to be emerging as the favorite if you don't want to pay the extra $600 for the Honda badging with essentially the same specs..

Can something like this be converted to run on natural gas?

That is a good idea. Just getting generator ideas at the moment. But looking for something during extended power outages (more than a few hours). To use on and off for two fridges (one in garage), deep freeze, fans, misc. If it could power two fridges or a fridges and deep freeze that would be good. I dont intend all to be connected at once. But basically keeping food from spoiling.

so when your power is out for a week that's 14 - 20lb tanks.
whew, that's a lot of trips.

I'll stick with gasoline and just syphon out my car and truck.

a typical fridge/freezer has startup wattage of 800-12002. so as long as they are not both 1200 and both starting at the same time, this should run 2 fairly easily. I went with a 3500 inverter because i wanted fewer limitations and i found a stupid deal on it at HF ($225 with 4 hours on it).

Quote from zaarel :
Would this run two standing freezers?
Fridge/freezer compressors are all rated with LRA - Locked Rotor Amps. This is the "most" current it will draw at startup. LRA is marked on the compressor. Either look at the compressor or research what compressor your freezer has and the LRA rating. It may not draw full LRA bu it wil give you an idea of what it is required. You could alternate betwen freezers and no need to run them 24 hrs a day.


LRA - Locked Rotor Amps: The current you can expect under starting conditions when you apply full voltage. It occurs instantly during start up. RLA - Rated Load Amps: The maximum current a compressor should draw under any operating conditions.

Which one is better - this or Wen 57225i? I don't care about the dual fuel.
Wen. More power, same weight, has usb and 12 vdc. Not on sale though if it matters...

Sometimes I could go as high as 13-14 on a tank, but 12h is the safer bet. For me it wasn't bad. I kept 5 tanks and propane is far easier to come by than gas, after a storm. When I got yo my last tank, I'd just go fill the others. Not really a big deal when the alternative is a heat index of 110, without AC. 🤣
