DUAL FUEL COMPROMISE: If you intend to burn propane only then consider waiting for the propane-only versions which will be released soon. Propane capability as an add-on to a gasoline generator is a compromise. The full benefit and efficiency of propane as a fuel can't be realized as an add-on.
MAINTENANCE CHALLENGE: Adding the LP control, regulator, extra hoses and a bulky dual fuel carburetor severely cramps the space inside these small enclosed generators limiting access. Replacement cost of the dual fuel carburetor is far higher than a regular carburetor. Neglect in not draining all of the gasoline out after use can quickly lead to clogging corroding and an expensive repair.

...so long story, short, I bought this. I'll keep the other one when we have projected longer outages, but for the running volume, portability and built-in inverter, this seems to fit the bill perfectly.
Thanks OP.
Edit: Looks like the User Manual even recommends using a surge protector at a minimum for sensitive electronics.

Non-inverter generators still create a normal sine wave and almost all of the modern ones are voltage-regulated. The problem is that under load their frequency can vary substantially whereas inverter generators are much better at keeping a consistent 60hz.

Most ups can do avr and you benefit from power conditioning all day everyday. Then on the rare occasion you're using your generator it's fixing the power also.
Ups for electronics and whatever generator you need for load.
I have inverter but I bought it for sound levels and less for power cleanliness.
If you have stuff that requires a true sine wave you probably know it and probably already have a power conditioner of some type.
Everything else the ac to DC convertor does a good enough job
