There are many options out there for RV Propane Generators now. Are they worth it or is it better to stick with gasoline generators for RVers. Each has its strengths and weaknesses. Here are the links to what we talked about in this video, and do a quick review of the Champion 3400 Watt duel fuel RV Generator

    I love watching videos that were pre-covid, our poor souls had no idea what was coming
  • @48kornbinder19
    Your generator is a nice one. Thanks for all of the work and research you put into your videos.
  • @BK-dv1hh
    Great information and consideration of multiple issues. If this one had remote start, it would be a no-brainer! I have a 3500 gas model with remote start and really love that feature, as well as desiring to run everything in the rig if need be. Especially helpful for cold weather camping. You’re also right about the micro air easy start. Such a great addition to an RV air conditioner for generator use.

    We bought one of these generators last month. We’re excited to use it. 😊
  • @WeekendRVing
    We use the same generator and we love it. Runs one ac just fine. Great review
  • @Blue99Si
    Awesome edit at 10:09. That was really cool. Thanks for the great videos, as always!

    I love my champion duel fuel. I only use propane and mine runs 20 hours on a 20 pound tank and no more messy gas cans.
  • @richlondon4661
    Jared, I have the exact same generator and love it. I always use it with gas because I think it's cheaper to run it that way, but love knowing that I can use one of my propane bottles in a pinch. I'm not as strong as I used to be (that's my excuse anyway) so, I avoid the heavy lifting by wheeling the generator up a ramp to my pickup bed.

    In emergencies, gas pumps don't work nor do they get deliveries so gas is much harder to get. We've had gas shortages but I don't remember a propane shortage. You can exchange propane tanks almost anywhere
  • Thank you so much for your review on this generator!! I had no idea that there was such a thing as a generator that ran on propane! I am actually in the market for a generator and didn't like the idea of having to tote around gasoline for it. I am a newbie RVer so I need all the help I can get! Stay Safe ❤️

    I bought this generator last year and love it. We use it at deer camp in the winter when we boondock with our rv and it is our home backup power. I wanted duel fuel because I always have propane around but not always gasoline. Would like a fuel guage though you can take the fuel screen out. Great video.
  • I just upgraded to the Champion 4500w dual fuel. Many improvements over this one (although I loved this one too). Nice job. -Ed
  • Coming from Alex and phil channel. Look forward to watching your videos. Love from Iceland
  • @emersonkk33
    I do not own one of these but plan to get this exact one when I hit the road. But I have heard of one more "con" about it, no hour meter. But the good news is you can get one cheap and seen it was easy to put on. It looked like you did this from the vid. Love your videos, one of my favorite channels. But there is one "con" about your channel...we need more vids! lol. Keep up the good work!
  • We contemplating this dual fuel generator versus the gas only version, and chose the gas only because it was available with a remote start. For dry camping situations where the generator can only be started at certain times, it’s nice to be able to start/stop it at a precise time if you’re in the RV (eg. Sleeping in :) ). Also, gas storage never an issue for me - I always add stabilizer to the gas can before I fill it. Even if I forget to do that, gas stations always sell stabilizer, so I will buy it then.
  • @SunsetSeekers
    Thank you so much for the video! We had never considered a propane generator before.
  • @bobarnall3913
    I bought one of these two years ago, works like a champ. My generator has worked very well and I couldn't be happier. I did have a problem when we first bought it, it wouldn't start our AC however the customer service was super sent me the new mother board which was easy to change. I did add a starting capacitor to the AC just to make it easier and the cost was just over $10. Excellent video. Thanks

    What an impressive, very informative video. Great job!
