FAQ
The included wireless remote key fob can start or stop the generator from up to 80 feet away. This is especially convenient during storms or at night when you don’t want to walk outside to the unit.
CO Shield is Champion’s carbon monoxide auto shutoff system. It continuously monitors CO levels around the generator while it’s running. If CO concentrations reach an unsafe level – such as when exhaust is blowing toward a structure – the system automatically shuts off the engine. It is an important safety feature, but it is not a substitute for an indoor CO alarm. Always operate the generator outdoors, far from windows, doors, and vents.
This generator is designed for window AC units, not central air conditioning systems, which typically require much higher starting and running wattages. At 10,000 starting watts and 8,000 running watts, it can comfortably handle a window AC, refrigerator, lights, TV, and other common household loads simultaneously during an outage.
Yes, the battery needed for the electric start is included in the box. You won’t need to purchase one separately before you can use the electric or wireless remote start functions.
Yes. This generator includes a 120/240V 33.3A outlet (14-50R), which is the standard 50-amp RV-style outlet. This makes it compatible with RV hookups and many large appliances. A compatible 50-amp generator cord (sold separately) is needed to connect.
With a full 7.7-gallon tank of gasoline, the generator runs up to 10 hours at 50% load (4,000 watts). Heavier loads will reduce runtime, while lighter loads can extend it. This makes it well-suited for overnight outages without refueling.
