I wish there were more tri-fuel inverter options out there, but I understand there isn't a big demand for them. We have a natural gas outlet on our patio so this would be very helpful during winter storms. The only other 2 I know of are closed frames made by Genmax and Pulsar, but both are over $2000. Firman said they should be releasing a closed fram tri-fuel inverter this year, so hopefully that is cheaper.

Your most cost efficient option is one of the DuroMax gens and buying a Tri fuel kit. It's easy to slap on. We have 4 DuroMax gens. 2 on the farm and dad and i both have 1 each wired up to our houses. I'm not shilling duromax. I just know we've had Good luck with them. But to each their own. Do the proper break in and I would suggest a magnetic oil plug. Not necessary but it's a very small price aftermarket piece. Since these gens don't have oil filters.
Yes I like Durostar/Max as well, and they have tri fuels but again they are not inverters if needing.
True. But from I've learned over the years is an inverter is quieter. That's about it. You can debate the "THD" all you want I guess. But I've ran my heat pump and all the electronics in our house on my 10k gen with no problems so far. (I will emphasize so far) for about 6 yrs off and on in outages. Maybe total 40 hrs. But we also run our grain bin fans with these for over 100 hrs a yr with no problems. They have a single circuit board per fan so I don't know how much it would affect that. I've always been worried about my heat pump. But it's still running good. I think if your generator is taken care of and runs like it's supposed to you will be fine. It's when it runs out of gas or spits and sputters from poor maintenance is when you get the voltage fluctuations and messes with your electronics.
Yes I'm the same, better bang for buck. I have 3 "regular " Units and never had a problem either. I was just adding that for ones needing to know.
Inverter generator with low tdh safe for electronics.
tri fuel with natural gas hose included.
decently quiet
good power
long running on gas
electric start
decent weight
300$ cheaper than Amazon and 400 cheaper than others like tsc and home Depot

Home Depot refused to price match it. Their reason was that this offer has free shipping and HD charges $55 for shipping so it wasn't an exact match, strange reasoning but that's what I was told. Amazon says URL invalid when trying to submit their "found lower price" form.

Realize load is a deciding factor, but I haven't seen anything specified.
They have a gas/Ng run time but don't specify tank size.
Wish they made the new 61db version with tri-fuel.
I'd be all over that.
