Product description
This 5000W dual fuel inverter generator from Redact delivers reliable power with flexible fuel options, ideal for outdoor adventures or emergency backup. It runs on either gasoline or propane, offering a clean, stable output that suits both camping trips and home power outages.
Key Points
The Redact 5000W dual fuel inverter generator provides consistent power with two fuel sources—gasoline and propane—allowing users to switch based on availability. It features both electric and remote start options, giving flexibility in when and where to power up. A built-in carbon monoxide sensor shuts down the unit automatically if dangerous levels are detected, ensuring safe operation. The generator includes multiple outlets: 120V 20A and 30A, plus a 12V DC port and parallel connection ports for extending capacity.

Benefits
This generator maintains clean power output thanks to inverter technology, which reduces voltage spikes and protects sensitive electronics. The parallel port system enables users to combine units for higher power demands, making it suitable for larger setups like workshops or remote sites. The built-in CO sensor enhances safety, especially in enclosed spaces or when used near living areas.
Usage Recommendations
For best results, use this generator in well-ventilated areas—never indoors without proper airflow. It’s particularly useful during storms, outdoor events, or when power cuts occur at home. When running on propane, ensure the fuel tank is properly filled and the regulator is set correctly. For extended use, monitor runtime and fuel levels to avoid unexpected shutdowns. Always turn off the generator when not in use to preserve the engine and extend lifespan.
The compact size (20.6 x 11.8 x 20 inches) and 60-pound weight make it easy to carry and store, whether in a garage or a vehicle. It comes with a propane hose, tools, and a two-year warranty.
