Looks identical to my WGen 11500 TFC that gets 9500kw on natural gas and much higher on propane and gas. My THD is > 5% and runs like a champ. Less than $1600 and came with both natural gas + Propane quick connect hoses. I think I got a great unit at a better price - hope yours works out.
I had the same generator for 3 weeks put 1 day on it then wouldn't stay running I'm pretty good with engines I took a good look at it and what I figured was the crankshaft bearings/camshaft bearings were not machined in the block correctly it warm up then rpms would slow down then just shut off also the push button start stopped working and could only start with FOB or pull start I did return to HFT they didn't have another 1 to exchange it with so I got hit with a 204$ restock fee which was a joke be they had to send it back finally waiting 2 months i went back to 9000 watt model till they get these figured out I'm not mad for HFT i must have just got 1 that got built on a Friday or Monday haha hope your runs smoothly and have no issues thanks for a good review video happy camping ! :)
you will love it. i have a 8750/7000 and love it got it in 2008. zero wrong with it but it is a little weak for my house. i can run anything but my a/c and water heater. and i just got on and looked and saw this 13000 they said they had it in stock and when i got there all they had was the display. the girl called around and found one 40 miles away and she told them to put my name on it and they did. just a guess 50 minutes later when i got there mine was the only one of 5 that they had. the store was open maybe 1 1/2 hours. and mine runs everything. at the same time but the water heater hurts it. but the a/c and stove can be ran at the same time. i dont recommend running all the 220 at the same time but it will do it. gas its not bad on house propane would only be used as a back up because i used the hell out of it. i have had mine 4 months now and used it at least 100 hours already. and no regrets i might even sell my 8750 generator.
I bought one for our mobile pizza kitchen but had to return the first one, think it was a bad CO sensor. On the replacement unit, I had to remove the battery from the CO sensor for it to even run. I run mine on Propane for a cleaner burn, less smell but lower watts when using propane. It sits in a gen box so I had to build an exhaust through the floor to the outside, and that was a pita since it was a tight area. I hope it lasts a while. GET THE 2-YEAR WARRANTY!! Harbor Freight will swap it out if you have terminal issues. I paid 400.00 for the warranty but imo worth it considering the replacement cost. Regarding the price, buying the tri-fuel generator is not a bad deal.
I just got done cutting some trees at the property and I’m getting ready to start fabricating the gate frame. I’ll post some video up of me using the generator and I’ll let you know what I think if that helps.
I believe that generator is made in China and some of the reviews I have read. I’m not impressed. I won’t be purchasing that. Hope it works well for you.
well it is a 10kW generator for $1100 so how "good" can it be ... When name brand generators with similair power levels with tri fuel are double the price.
yes it is made in china and for as cheap as it was and as long as I have been using it now, it was well worth the money. Most everything now of days is made in china and assembled in the U.S. then sold to us at a higher price.
mine under load sits at a constant 61.5 Hz. Didn't measure thd, but it didn't give my gear any trouble. Happily ran all my electronics (servers, switches, tv's, 5 ton AC, 2 refrigerators and 2 chest freezers for hours with no issue, but I do have my electronics behind BBU UPS's

couple months old now, we used it to power our travel trailer with 50 amp service during a storm and it worked great.

so without a tear down you figured not machined correctly..Your identity has been revealed..SUPERMAN lol
Ha thx the oil was silver now we are talking Termanator 2
@@davo912 he didnt tear anything down.
may be good with motors, so you say but your punctuation is crap

keep track of your wattage usage so you know what you can and cant run together

I haven’t tried the propane yet been meaning to do that. I’ve yet to have any issues with it so far.
Thank You Sir
I have the unit. I didn’t open it yet. Concerned about the 90 day warranty. The Westinghouse is 3 years. Thinking of returning it.
You can buy the extended warranty…For 1100 bucks, plus any discounts you may have…it’s pretty cheap for 13.5k watts…
3 year warranty is $350.00 I have up to the 90 days to add it, going to try it out today with the mig welder
@@ontimegeneralcontracting Thanks. Still torn. They told me only 30 days to add it.

15% coupon just came out through this weekend. I got my price adjustment earlier today. Warranty is still expensive. $359 for two years.

I bought a Westinghouse WGen95000DF. Made in Vietnam. So far. Ok. Two years.

Can anyone tell me is the thd less than 5%?
