Bought for home back up power. Handles our entire 2500 sqft home along with the well. Comes with bonded neutral but jumper is very easy to remove should your application need it. Oil capacity is quite a bit higher than listed in the manual. The manual looks like an incomplete repurposing of the smaller models manual leaving some details to be desired. It’s not quite by any means but it is barely audible, if at all, from inside our home. I received the updated model with the 50amp plug on the left so no connection troubles for me. I also bought a cover from GenTent and am very happy with its fit. I did four oil changes in the first 25 hours (1,3,10, and 15) of operation and would recommend anyone else do similar due to the amount of metal shavings removed in the first few changes. Shipping company left some to be desired but for the price the additional aggravation was worth it. Read full review

I've only run it briefly to make sure it runs (on propane). I might give it four or five stars in a couple of years if it holds up. Price for a dual-fuel unit with such a high power output is unmatched in my searches. Electric start with battery included is a plus, but I was delighted to find that it has a 50A outlet, in addition to the expected 30A one. Twin handles AT THE RIGHT HEIGHT with bigger wheels give much easier maneuverability on the rough dirt floor of my barn than my 6000 watt Aldi Kingcraft.

It took a really long time for this generator to get delivered. Due to holiday peak loads and bad weather (I live in Texas where we dealt with the polar vortex ice storm) there were a lot of delays. I was willing to wait because the price was really good for a generator of this size and wattage. It just arrived yesterday March 31, 2021. I have another generator, but it is only a 6500W machine and isn't able to fully power my house, so I upgraded. I also upgraded for the following reasons: This generator: -Goes to 50a -Is 12,000W -Was priced under $900. And under $1000 is really worth it -Has 50a and 30a outlets -Has an electric start and battery -Has duel fuel, and my house does use propane -Comes with the wheel kit included I am super swamped with work, so I didn't have time to put oil in it and start it yet, but it looks great. It is slightly smaller than my previous, less-powered, generator that I will be selling soon (like new). What they don't tell you is that you are getting the updated and newer version of this generator than the one that is depicted in the add. In the add, you can see the 50a outlet is on the far right, above the wheel. That makes it difficult to plug in a thick and rigid 50a cord because the wheel is in the way. The 50a outlet has been swapped with the 120/240 regular house outlets in the middle so it is easier to plug in. I wasn't sure about the double handles for moving it because my current generator has a single handle, but believe it or not, it makes the weight much lighter. It could be the better wheels as well. It's just lighter. I'm really looking forward to powering it up. I will update my review after starting it up. Read full review

With this being a dual fuel generator, I planned to run it primarily on propane. When I hooked it up to my brand new and filled 20 lb propane tank, it ran very rough and I could not get it off of full choke mode without it dying. So, I took the provided hose and regulator down to my local propane supplier to see if they were faulty and they found they were operating correctly at 1PSIG. I called Pulsar and described the problem. They diagnosed it was likely the diaphram regulator where the hose connects to the generator and promptly sent out a replacement diaphram regulator. What turned out to be the real problem is that the new propane tanks come with an OPD shutoff valve that activates if you open the trangle valve on the tank all the way. The flow is too great, and the OPD valve shuts off and then opens up causing a pulsation of the propane flow. You must only open the triangle valve on the tank one full turn of 360 degrees, then the generator starts up just fine and runs great. This needs to be included in the instructions packet. This is why I am giving the product 4 stars. Read full review

I assembled the wheels, handles, and leg rests. Added gasoline, and oil. Set the choke, and it started with two pulls on the manual lanyard. Then I connected with a 15 amp electric chain saw and the saw worked as normal. The surge was handled with no drop in performance. Next test is propane but this generator is high quality and performs. It is heavy, but was shipped on a pallet. The manual ia OK but some of the critical sketches are too small to read.. I feel confidant this generator will see me through the next hurricane or power failure.
