Our take on the Champion 4000W Tri-Fuel

The Champion 201223 is a portable generator that runs on gasoline, propane or natural gas, so you can switch fuels with a dial instead of buying a second unit. On gasoline it delivers 4000 running watts (5000 starting) for up to 14 hours at half load; propane drops it to 3600 running watts and natural gas to 3240. Electric start with Cold Start Technology, a CO Shield shutoff and the Intelligauge meter make it easy to live with. It suits RV owners, tailgaters and homeowners who want backup power without storing fuel, and its tri-fuel flexibility is rare at this size, where most rivals are gasoline-only or dual-fuel.

About the Champion 4000W Tri-Fuel

This portable generator runs on gasoline, propane or natural gas. A Fuel Select dial lets the user choose the fuel source. It has a 224cc Champion engine with electric start, a rocker switch and an included battery. Cold Start Technology supports quick starts in cold weather.

On gasoline it produces 5000 starting watts and 4000 running watts, and runs up to 14 hours at 50% load on a full 5-gallon tank. On propane it produces 4500 starting watts and 3600 running watts, and runs up to 10.5 hours at 50% load on a 20-pound tank. On natural gas it produces 4050 starting watts and 3240 running watts.

CO Shield monitors carbon monoxide and automatically shuts off the engine if it detects unsafe levels. An LED indicates a CO shutoff or fault. It does not replace an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or safe operation, and the generator must always be used outdoors, far from occupied buildings, with the exhaust pointed away from people and buildings. Intelligauge tracks voltage, frequency, session run time and total run time, which helps monitor output and maintenance intervals. A low oil shut-off sensor is included.

Questions and answers

Can it really run on three fuels?
Yes. A fuel selector dial switches between gasoline, propane and natural gas, and both the propane hose and a 25-foot natural gas hose with NPT adapter are included.
How many watts do I get on each fuel?
Gasoline gives 5000 starting and 4000 running watts, propane 4500 starting and 3600 running, and natural gas 4050 starting and 3240 running.
How long does it run?
Up to 14 hours at 50% load on a full 5-gallon gasoline tank, or about 10.5 hours at 50% load on a 20-pound propane tank. Natural gas runtime depends on your supply.
What can it power?
It handles RV appliances, lights, TVs, fridges, fans, phones and small tools. It will not run a whole house or large 240V equipment like a central AC.
What comes in the box?
Engine oil, a propane hose, a natural gas hose with NPT adapter, an oil funnel, a wheel kit and the starter battery.
Does it shut off automatically?
Yes. The CO Shield system monitors carbon monoxide and shuts the engine down when levels get unsafe, and a low-oil sensor also stops the engine.
