  • Works well
I've used this several times to remotely turn on my generator, I just unplug the power cord and this starts the generator. I plan to use a relay switch to cut power to then start the generator, this makes it possible for Westinghouse generators to have the two wire start capability of expensive diesel generators. Up to 20amp can be supplied to the two plugs and you can still use spare plugs on the generator itself for higher loads. I love that this also trickle charges the battery. The cables are long, but maybe not long enough for this device to be indoors away from an outdoor generator. I'll probably end up shortening the cables since this will be in a weather protected generator enclosure near the generator. ... show more

  • Westinghouse technical service is a scam
The ST Switch did not work right out of the box. Followed all instructions and could not get it to start the generator. Not a generator or cable problem because I could disconnect the cable from ST Switch and jumper pins 2&3, generator would start. Technical support did generate a case number for my inquiry, but once a week I would get an AI generated email with questions that were no help to me. I would answer right off, but not get an email back for another week. Contacted customer service and actually spoke to someone who couldn't help me, technical issue. They said they would contact technical support to call me. Never heard from them. Do not buy from this company, their technical service is a scam. Ended up calling amazon who sent me a new unit. ... show more

  • I don't know what took me so long.
For the life of me, I don't know why it took me so long. For 25 years I have been dragging out my wheel-less COSTCO Generac 5,000 Power Plus "The Old Red Sled" generator. It gave my all electric home most of what I needed. But as the years went on, my minimum power requirements have changed significantly and 5,000 watts is insufficient to give my bare minimum requirements. I also, really want the ability to use propane as gasoline goes bad over time. And the last power outage, I wiped out my back ripping on the recoil starting cord. Time to upgrade. My neighbors had a Duramax 12,000 Duel Fuel I was checking out during the last power outage. I was impressed, but at the $1,300.00 price tag, not so much. Then as my research continues, I run into the WGEN9500DF. The quality was on the same level as Duramax, in a slightly more compact frame, undercutting price, slightly higher starting wattage, and more options. Remote starting - I can now start or stop my Generator from my bed. ST Switch capability - With a small additional investment, I now have an Automatic Backup Generator of 2,400 Watts, 20 Amps to automatically provide heat, power to my UPS that powers my and Entertainment/Communications Control Center, and a few LED lights for my living room. This is great for shorter outages. So, for the same price as my neighbors paid for their Duramax 12,000 I also got a remote start, and automatic transfer switch. I do not need to tell you which one of us regrets their decision. ... show more

  • It works as advertised
This is an inexpensive "transfer switch" that provides one 20A 120VAC receptacle. I use it for stand-by power for my heating system. My one complaint is that the setup instructions fail to note that the generator's voltage switch must be set to 240VAC. Once I got the switches set correctly, the setup worked perfectly: starts generator upon main power loss and shuts down when power is restored. ... show more

  • Westinghouse power generator synchronized in-house use
This unit syncs well with the Westinghouse backup power generator we purchased separately. This unit plugs into the main backup power generator and a 115v line plug for seamless energized generator and house power supply during a line outage. Great add on unit.

  • Does not work
Been through 2 of these and 2 generators and still the automatic start feature does not work. Westinghouse service literally sucks, they have basically done nothing to fix the problem if I would have know I would have bought a Generac instead

  • Finally back in stock
I had been waiting for this item to return to stock. and I finally got it and at a sale price. This switch is invaluable and certainly a must to have with my generator.
