WEN DF 400i DUAL FUEL 4000-WATT INVERTER GENERATOR - SUPER QUIET & RV READY!!!

[@bmcc12]

I recently bought a Wen 4500 dual fuel electric start generator in march of 2023. I have owned more than twelve generators in the past, but my new Wen is the best so far. I have adapted three twenty pound propane tanks together, and I now have around thirty six hours of continuous run. I’m thrilled

[@OutsidebySide]

@bmcc12 That is so awesome to have that kind of run time! Thanks for watching! We like the Wen best as well and we also purchased the DF 11,000KW. 🤩

[@Papa_Smurf7]

Wow, this was a fantastic and complete review. This is probably one of the most comprehensive reviews I have ever seen. Yeah, its a bit long but for anyone who wants to know every aspect of this generator this is perfect. Thanks for leaving out the unboxing (man, dislike that!). I also enjoyed your showing setup and oil change. I ordered mine today along with the Magnetic Oil Dipstick because of your review. Great Job, keep up the good work!

Considering one of these for use with our travel trailer and other use. I currently have a Champion but it's not an inverter style so it is LOUD. Never used it to camp for that reason even though it is capable of powering the camper. When have so many models. I am not worried about remote start but electric start would be good. Also not sure if I would use the propane feature or not but tempted to get the dual fuel model just for the flexibility. Definitely a cool feature when it comes to extending the run time.

[@OutsidebySide]

@davva360 Yes, those are pretty loud. We have loved the dual fuel generator. Appreciate you taking time to comment! 🤩

[@bubbatime]

Comment about the fuel shutoff…. It still leaves a few teaspoons of gas in the carburetor bowl. The best way to drain fuel out of the carburetor for storage is to use the drain screw on the bottom of the carburetor bowl.

[@OutsidebySide]

@Scott Yes, that is correct. The carburetor bowl can also be drained, to prevent the fuel from gumming up the carb. Thank you for watching our video and taking time to comment! We would appreciate your support by subscribing to our channel! 🤩

[@guyina4x499]

Great video. I changed the oil in my wen 3 times, each after 1 hour of running. First 2 were pretty ugly, 3rd was pretty good so I'm going to let it go to 10hrs total before the next change. I also have a predator 3500, got a little over 300 hours on it, i think the wen is quieter and definitely is lighter. I like the predator display better, easier to see and you can change the display with a button.

[@quadcomputers]

Good coverage but how long will it run 1/2 load on propane? I have used various inverter generators, they are all the same the displays soon go bonkers, but 1/2 load on a tank of gas it should run 15 to 20 hours (multiply the tank gallons by fuel cost for cost per hour)

[@OutsidebySide]

@Robert Daddario This generator will run 9 hours on a 20 lb propane tank. 8 1/2 hours on 2.2 gallons of gas. So far so good with the display after about a year. Thank you for watching our video! 🤩

[@paulhiebert1887]

Thanks for your review, if I may, I've been told that you should never plug into your generator until it has warmed up and settled down. Apparently it may Harm the inverter doing that. Do you know if the generator switching over to gasoline automatically is just a Wen feature or do all duel fuels do that???

[@OutsidebySide]

@Paul Hiebert Thank you for watching our video & taking time to comment! Our RV does not have an inverter. we never turn the AC on, or any other heavy electrical loads until the generator has started or warmed up. Not sure if other generators has the auto switch function. 🤩

[@campingalan]

Hello from Ouray. New subscriber here. Thank you for doing a video on your generator! It is very informative. We have an Outdoors RV trailer that should arrive in a couple of weeks. We plan to exclusively boondock for the next 5 years on 1-2 week trips monthly. Then, we will push out for 1-2 months to focus on exploring specific regions in the country. I will install a robust solar set up. But, I will want a generator for charging back up , as well as for any a/c days. I am all over the map with regards to what generator solution to get. I would love to just get a smaller 2200-2500 watt generator and put a soft start on the a/c. Of course, that may not cut it in the higher elevations. I would love to get a 2200 w Honda. But, if we eventually needed 2, that would be big bucks. So, The other option is for an off brand smaller one and could get another later if we needed to parallel the power. And as you have highlighted, one of these 3000+ watt options will just do the job, for sure. The Wen 3800 gas and 4000 dual fuel look like they are awesome. They have all of the features I would want. My only objection is the 100lbs. I can carry those now, no problem. But, no telling in the future. I see you have already passed through the San Juan Mountains. So, maybe can meet up if you return again. Our forest roads will close in a few weeks. So, I think our shake out trips will mostly be to the west towards the UT desert. Safe travels!

[@OutsidebySide]

@campingalan Thank you for taking time to comment & thank you for watching our video! Ouray is one of our favorite places & very nice to meet you on KZbin! Would really like to meet up next time we are in that area. We really like this generator and we have noticed that when in the mountains, we haven’t really needed the generator because the weather is optimal! It’s great for running our A/C but a smaller generator would be fine for keeping the battery topped off! Hope you have wonderful memories with your new Travel Trailer and please let us know how your travels go and what generator you decide on! Happy camping!

[@campingalan]

@@OutsidebySide Most definitely! My wife is from Grand Junction. About a year after we had started dating and I had started accompanying her home for long weekends or holidays, she said "I think we should go see the Ouray area. I'm sure you will like it". And boy, she wasn't kidding! It just took us almost 28 years to make the finances, job, and housing work hehehe. Yes...that would be fun to meet up whenever the paths cross. Ok...that is great that you are happy with yours. I first saw the 3800w gas model on one of the generator review channels. I really liked it. And, I'd assume that if it is well maintained, it should do whatever we need it to do. Yes...I am hedging our bets that as long as we are staying in the higher country in the summer, we'd rarely need a/c. I really enjoy the dry climate out here. Even if it is in the 80s or 90s, it is comfortable as long as you are in the shade. Safe travels!

[@OutsidebySide]

@James Akers Our BTU is 1350. Thanks for watching our video!

[@jamesakers8001]

@@OutsidebySide Thank you. Mine is 15k. Do you think this should handle the initial start up after that its running its like 1500

[@OutsidebySide]

@@jamesakers8001 1500 BTU should be no problem for this generator. 🤩

[@michaelweltner2809]

what is the weight of this unit?

[@OutsidebySide]

@Michael Weltner The dry weight is 100 lbs. Thank you for watching our video! 🤩

[@jjrrtt1000]

Can you give me the exact height of this generator.

[@OutsidebySide]

@jjrrtt jjrrtt The height of this generator is 20.1 in. Thank you for watching our video! 🤩

Great video and nice generator. Ever thought installing a soft start on your a/c? It's a game changer. Your generator would work less and you can use the extra watts for other things. Just a thought check it out.

[@OutsidebySide]

@Rob11 Yes, we have thought of this! We are glad you mentioned this on the comments. Thank you for watching our video! 🤩

[@loveracing1988]

A soft start doesn't lower the total wattage the a/c takes it just spreads out the initial surge. So you wouldn't have any extra wattage left over.

[@OutsidebySide]

@@loveracing1988 Thanks for the info but this generator has no issues starting our A/C. Thanks for watching! 😄

[@shanew7361]

I don't like that there isn't an application to run it or to see time until empty etc.

[@OutsidebySide]

@Shane W Thank you for your thought & thank you for watching our video! We definitely see your point but so far we haven’t had an issue with it running out of fuel overnight while using it. That wasn’t one of the features we really needed.

[@shanew7361]

@@OutsidebySide I don't see a CO alarm/sensor either.

[@OutsidebySide]

@@shanew7361 You are correct! It does not have one but we keep it outside most of the time because we use it with our Travel Trailer. 🤩

[@michaelvierra8735]

Be careful about Carbon Monoxide Poisoning! 10 Feet isn't far enough away from the trailer! Your generator needs to be at least 23 or 25 feet away

[@OutsidebySide]

@michaelvierra8735 Thanks for the tip! We were wondering why we were waking up with hangovers when we didn’t drink. 😂 Thanks for watching! 😆

[@rabokarabekian409]

@rabokarabekian409 We have not had any issues so far. Thanks for watching! 🤩
