What can a 2500W inverter generator run?

It handles lights, a fridge, fans, TVs, laptops and phone chargers. It will not start a central AC, a large well pump or most electric heaters.

Does it really run on propane?

Yes, it is dual fuel and accepts a standard propane tank through a hose. Expect lower wattage on propane than on gasoline.

Yes. The inverter design produces stable, low-distortion power suitable for laptops, phones and TVs.

Inverter units in this size class run quieter than open-frame generators, especially at low load. Expect noticeable noise when a heavy load kicks in.

Not directly. It is too small for a whole-home transfer switch. Use it with extension cords or a small transfer switch for selected circuits.

Typically the generator, a propane hose, a tool kit and the owner's manual. Check the listing for the exact included accessories.
