It's time to throw back your head and cackle at nature's petty attempts to rain on your metaphorical parade with the WEN 9000-Watt Generator. Boasting an impressive 9000 surge watts and 7000 running watts, this generator will ensure that your basement stays dry, your meat stays cold, and your TV stays on under even the harshest of weather conditions. The EPAIII compliant 420cc 15 HP OHV engine along with the 6.5-gallon fuel tank combine to provide users up to 9 hours of runtime at half load. To turn the generator on, either yank the recoil starter or use the keyless electric start for ignition at the press of a button. The WEN 9000-Watt Generator includes four 120V 20A three-prong receptacles, one 120\/240V 30A twist-lock (L14-30), one 120V 30A twist lock, and one car-charger-style 12V DC car-charger-style-outlet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe WEN 9000-Watt Generator also comes packed with features, including a spark arrestor, a necessary addition to meet the standards for use in U.S. National Parks and Forests. The automatic voltage regulator helps produce cleaner power to protect your electronics. Power indicator lights above the receptacles inform users as to whether or not the outlets are live. The included wheel and handle kit makes mobility simple for tailgating, job sites and campgrounds. Low-oil shut down safeguards the unit from damage while the digital hour counter helps users stay on a routine maintenance schedule. And because it's a WEN Product, your purchase comes backed by a 2-year warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians and a friendly customer help line. Sure, reconnecting with your family during an evening of electricity-free conversation doesn't sound that bad, but let's be real: you want to watch TV. The WEN 9000-Watt Generator wants to help. Remember when you were able to provide your family emergency backup power in times of need?
