I have had the GM9000ied for a year and has been awesome thru both a 4 day and a recent 3 day blackout. Might upgrade to this as conversion kit to natural gase requires a lower gapped spark plug then gas/lpg as well as installing a separate part. Not impossible to undo but a pain if natural gas is out and have to do at night. The 3 way selectable fuel switch makes all the difference in an emergency.

This was a very well done video. I especially like the fact you included the oscilloscope, current meter, volt meter, and frequency in digital. Testing on an RV is okay, but you could not fully load the generator with this method. It would be especially nice to see it under a load bank situation where you could push it to surge limits. Otherwise, very nicely done.

This is an awesome generator!

Great test. It looks like that tiny blip near zero volts on your O-scope is a typical zero crossing of an IGBT based generator as the transistors trade duty. In my experience in very high quality IGBT inverters in the high speed rail industry, GenMax did not skimp. They are using tight, high quality transistors which speaks well of how long this generator will perform over long runs. I would love to see that 50 amp plug tested at capacity on your RV to truly simulate shore power of an RV resort power pole, but that requires a parallel of two of these generators, because with only one generator of this model, that 50 amp plug is current limited to 30 amps

looks like it was pulling 50? or are you saying limited to 30 amp per leg?

On the 10500 that bonding plug pops the gfi outlet. You need the bonding plug that connects to the l30 outlet

@daveglover8942 : Where can you obtain a bonding plug for the non-GFI NEMA 14-30L outlet so that this won’t be a potential issue ?

In one of your other videos, there was discussion about whether these Chinese built generators had an iron cylinder sleeve or a much cheaper and shorter lived aluminum one. No one seems to know which it is. So in thinking about this, I believe I may have a solution. In my shop I have a small magnetic pickup tool which could be inserted inside the cylinder after removing the spark plug, If it sticks to the cylinder wall, then the cylinder wall has iron in it and the unit is likely to have been built with the more durable iron sleeve. If it doesn't stick to the cylinder wall, it is likely made of the cheaper aluminum material with a much shorter wear life. I haven't done so yet but will check this out the next time the plug is going to be changed. Sound reasonable ????

Did you ever test whether the cylinder wall was magnetic or not?

No not yet but I will.

Why doesnt duramax, westinghouse, champion, etc have a trifuel inverter generator close to 10kw?

Very well-done and comprehensive video presentation of this unit. What can you say about their domestic customer service and product support?

Our portable generators come with a one-year limited warranty for recreational use from the purchase date that includes parts and labor.

I have a propane line coming into my house from a 500 gallon tank. There is a regulator at the tank, and a second one at the house. There is a port for connecting a generator after that second regulator at the house. If I wanted to connect this generator to that port would I still use the regulator that came with the generator?

Does anyone know approximately how long one Full propane tank would last under a medium load. Or just on average.????

Where is the discount code????

Where can I buy a replacement battery for my 9000iedc. Battery died even when connected to a battery maintainer.

i have a 6000 Ied today and it's awesome. I wish there was a trade in program so I can upgrade to this though. Maybe when the 6000 dies, I'll replace it with this. But the quality is really good, so I think I'm stuck with it for a while! :D

Thank you for your like. We appreciate your feedback and will take it seriously. Have a good day!

Nice video. Just confirming. This generator is a floating neutral correct? I read one of the comments where the person said the bonded plug pops the gfci . But that would only be true if it was connect to the house and rhe plug is in correct? You would use the plug only when using as a stand alone nor connected to the house.

Yes, it's Neutral Floating. For easy bonding, make it perfect for home standby back up power easy connect the house. Using our special Bonding Plug(Sold seperately) to change the neutral floating to neutral bonded status for portable use.

@@dinkingofficial7521 connecting to a house the main panel will be bonded thus the generator should be floating.

Please I'm in ghana how can I get one to buy?

Shame its not available in Australia...we just went through 3 days with no power due to a cyclone...

Is the Pulsar a good option vs this one? They look the same

Yea was looking at that as well - seems like a rebrand of the same product. Can’t find warranty info on their website though

you're planning to produce an European version?

Can you put premium gas in these for longevity?

Ethanol free gas would be for longevity.

Whether it’s Premium or Regular Unleaded gasoline, won’t matter if you’re concerned about longevity. Most gasolines in the U.S. have at least 10% ethanol and it’s the usually the ethanol component of gasoline which can potentially shorten the life of any generator. The reason is that water is miscible (or mixable) in ethanol, unlike the other petroleum distillates in gasoline, with which water does not mix. So leaving fuel with ethanol in the generator (or even a small amount in the carburetor), can lead to damage. If the generator is exercised regularly, you should be fine. I learned this the hard way and now try to use ethanol free fuel when exercising my generator. If you have a tri-fuel unit, why not just run it on nat. gas or propane and only use gasoline as a last resort?

Nothing wrong with the scope: THAT'S THE WAVEFORM. I suspect they falsely advertise "CARB Compliant", because NEITHER Amazon nor Walmart will ship it to a California address. I'm going to wait for more reputable manufacturers to offer similar products.
