Our take on the Pulsar 5000-Watt Dual Fuel RV Ready Inverter Generator

The Pulsar 5000-Watt Dual Fuel Inverter Generator is a portable RV-ready generator that runs on gasoline or propane and delivers 5,000 peak watts, with 4,000 rated watts on gas. It offers three starting methods, including remote start, plus inverter output clean enough for sensitive electronics such as laptops and TVs. Its carbon monoxide shutdown and low-oil shutdown add safety that many budget generators lack. At 78 lbs it is heavier than smaller inverter units, but it can carry a 13,500 BTU RV air conditioner and is a strong fit for campers and tailgaters who want dual-fuel flexibility without a premium brand name.

What reviewers say

Owners generally find the Pulsar reliable for RV air conditioners and sensitive electronics, and they value the dual-fuel option and remote start. Complaints center on weight, noise under load and the limited outlet setup for RV hookups.

What people mention
  • WeightCriticisedOwners say 78 lbs is a two-person lift and awkward to load into a truck bed or RV compartment.
  • NoiseMixedReviewers find it quiet at light loads but noticeably loud when an air conditioner or heavy load kicks on.
  • Dual fuelPraisedBuyers like running it on propane to avoid stale gasoline and carburetor problems.
  • StartingPraisedThe remote and electric start are called convenient, especially in cold or rainy conditions.
  • OutletsCriticisedOwners note the two household outlets mean an adapter is needed for a standard RV 30A plug.
  • Safety shutdownPraisedThe carbon monoxide and low-oil shutdowns are seen as reassuring for overnight or enclosed use.

Questions and answers

Can it run an RV air conditioner?
Yes. Owners report it runs a 13,500 BTU RV air conditioner, though the startup surge uses much of the peak output. Run the AC alone or with light loads.
How long does it run on a full tank?
The 3-gallon tank lasts roughly 12 hours at half load and about 4 hours at full load, based on the 0.76 gallon/hour full-load figure. Propane runtime depends on the tank size.
Does it have an RV 30A outlet?
No. It has two 5-20R household outlets plus USB ports, so you need a 30A-to-20A adapter to plug in an RV cord.
Is it safe to use near a tent or RV?
It has a carbon monoxide shutdown, but generators should still run outdoors, away from windows, vents and tents. Never run it inside an enclosed space.
What is the difference between peak and rated watts?
Peak is 5,000W for short motor startups; rated is 4,000W on gas for continuous loads. Propane output is lower, so plan around the rated figure.
How loud is it?
Pulsar rates it at 65 dB, which is about normal conversation level. Expect more noise when a heavy load such as an air conditioner is running.
Where is the Pulsar 5000-Watt Dual Fuel RV Ready Inverter Generator cheapest?
At Walmart, for $729.00, 27% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
