Factor in its ease of installation and use, and it's a solid investment for assured power supply, provided the inherent noise and weight issues of generators are not a deal-breaker for you.

Style: 8000-Watt + Tri-Fuel + Electric Start + CO
I've been watching this item for a long time, but with the recent sale price and sales tax holiday in FL, it was time to pull the trigger. With the triple fuel options, it seems like a great option for emergency use. I've been through a few outages associated with hurricanes, and natural gas service has never been interrupted so I really wanted that option. Delivery was on time and arrived in a box. There was no pallet to deal with. Putting on the wheels was easy, but cumbersome when doing it alone, a lot of weight to deal with. The included natural gas hose added value, as did the propane hose with regulator and the necessary oil. My plan is natural gas only over the lifetime. It seems like a well-made machine. Nothing felt cheap or flimsy. Instructions are clear. I plumbed a natural gas line off of an available 1/2": pipe, added the required shut off, and added a quick connect at the end. Now the hose will quick connect at both ends. I'm sure much to my neighbor's delight, I ran the generator for 5 hours over two days and varied the load just as the instructions required. It fired up easy and ran great. It's loud, but hey, it's a generator, no louder than another. After 5 hours I changed the oil. They made that easy as well. I also purchased a transfer switch and interlock kit. At 7000 watts on natural gas, this thing isn't going to run my central air, but it should run most everything else, if I manage it. I plan to turn off all double breakers, (2 AC compressors, 2 air handlers, Pool) and with a transfer switch, I will have everything else available to me versus being limited by a generator sub panel. I had an electrician out today to put in the transfer and interlock and we gave it a test fire. I came in from outside and the lights and fans were on. So far so good. Now, with the great sale price value, and complete install, comes the weird part. I HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO USE IT! ... show more

  • Tri Fuel Generator - Great Idea!
Style: 8000-Watt + Tri-Fuel + Electric Start + CO
I have had a portable Champion gasoline fueled generator for several years and was very impressed with their quality. The only drawback was every time I needed to use the generator, I had to be prepared with a lot of stored gasoline and/or try to find a gas station that had power to pump gas. Neither was desirable. So, when I found that Tri fuel portable generators were coming out I waited and did some research on them. There are other brands out there, but Champion had consistently high reviews, Plus, my previous experience with on older one convinced me to stay with Champion. Pleasently surprised that my new one was more powerful and yet more compact than the previous one! One warning: If you are going to use a quick connect fitting for your supply line hose, you will need to get your own adapter fitting from a gas supply store. The threaded end that fits in the hose from the generator is 1/2" diameter and the male end is for 3/8" supply line. Just follow the instructions provided for operation. I used the provide oil for the 5-hour break-in period and then changed to a full synthetic oil (5W-30). Like my old one, I will be running it once a month for about 30 minutes just to keeps things well lubed. Most trouble occurs when they sit a long time without running periodically. Oh, I forgot to mention how nice it is to have battery start function instead of having to use a pull cord (even though you have one, if needed). I cannot speak for longevity yet, as it is still new. I will update if there are issues later. I use Natural Gas for mine. ... show more

Style: 8000-Watt + Tri-Fuel + Electric Start + CO
We have a KOHLER back up generator system for our house, but it has failed. The automatic transfer switch actually burned up even with a surge protector things happen so I bought this generator from CHAMPION and have a lockout installed on my panel and a 30 amp breaker as well well, connected to an inlet on the outside of the house. CHAMPION provided a 25 foot natural gas hose with connectors and I installed a tap with its own shut off on the gas line going to the KOHLER. It all works beautifully now. The CHAMPION also works with gasoline and LP gas. Electric start works flawlessly. I have other portable CHAMPION GENERATORS as well like their 3500 W inverter. customer service is always great. You cannot touch the value of CHAMPION set up is simple. It's clean layout and although it's not an inverter. The power is clean. Highly recommend ... show more
