The Westinghouse iGen5000DFc is a portable dual fuel inverter generator that runs on gasoline or propane. It is rated at 5,000 starting watts and 3,900 running watts. Its inverter output has less than 3% total harmonic distortion, which suits televisions, laptops and phones.
It starts with a push button or the wireless remote. A variable-speed engine matches output to demand, which saves up to 50% in fuel costs compared with traditional generators. A double-insulated cover and a low-tone muffler keep noise as low as 52 dBA. An LED Data Center shows fuel level, power, voltage, remaining runtime and lifetime hours.
The generator has an RV outlet, a standard duplex outlet and two USB ports. Wheels and an extendable handle make it easier to move. Parallel operation needs a compatible kit. Split-phase 120/240V needs the dedicated iGen240V kit and two generators with parallel communication ports. Check the generator revision before pairing, since the kit and second generator are sold separately.
