Your cart is empty.Remember when you had clean and quiet portable power? The WEN 6800-Watt Inverter Generator provides clean energy, free of voltage spikes and drops, without all the noise of a regular generator. Produce up to 6800 surge watts and 5100 rated watts of power on gasoline, or connect a propane tank using the tool-free quick-connector for up to 6000 surge watts and 4500 rated watts of power on LPG. The keyless electric start lets you turn on your generator at the press of a button, and includes a recoil starter as backup. The WEN Watchdog CO Shutdown Sensor helps protect both you and your family by automatically turning off the generator if dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are detected. Our 224cc engine operates at a modest 64 decibels at quarter load. This limits its invasiveness while camping, hunting, tailgating, and restoring backup power. The WEN 6800W Inverter Generator is also equipped with fuel shutoff. This feature turns off the flow of fuel, allowing for the generator to use up the remaining fuel from the carburetor before automatically shutting down. This helps fight the build-up and blockages caused by stagnant fuel inside of the carburetor, minimizing maintenance while prolonging the unit’s lifespan. Designed to mirror a pure sine wave, this generator limits total harmonic distortion to under 0.3 percent at no load and under 1.2 percent at full load, making it safe to run laptops, cellphones, monitors, tablets and other sensitive electronics. The built-in wheels and telescoping handle make for easy portability while the ultra-efficient 2.9-gallon tank provides up to 6.1 hours of half-load run time (or 9 hours half-load run time on a 20-pound LPG tank). The fully-packed panel comes equipped with one 120V/240V NEMA transfer-switch or electric-vehicle-ready L14-30R receptacle, two three-prong 120V NEMA 5-20R receptacles, one 12V DC receptacle, one 120V TT-30R RV receptacle, a voltage selector switch, and two 5V USB ports. Maximize fuel economy by engaging the eco-mode switch. This allows the generator's engine to automatically adjust its fuel consumption as items are plugged into and unplugged from the panel, preventing the unnecessary usage of gasoline. Need more energy? Easily link up any two 240V WEN inverter generators using a WEN 240V Parallel Connection Kit (sold separately) in order to share wattage amongst multiple units. Low-oil and low-fuel automatic shutdown combine with the built-in overload protection and indicator lights to safeguard both your generator and your electronics from damage. The bonded-neutral 240V configuration provides low-power Level 2 battery EV charging for peace of mind when your electric vehicle is off the grid. And because this is a WEN Product, your inverter generator comes backed by a 3-year limited warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians, and a friendly customer helpline. Remember when your generator powered your electronics safely and quietly? Remember WEN.

I needed to feed a bunch of people at the Rolex 24 races. I needed a generator that could power a 3600 watt dual element induction cooktop and a dual burner 4000 watt 24" electric griddle (not a the same time, that'd take a BIG generator). This unit worked GREAT for my 240v needs!! 120v appliances are always limited to their 15 amps, 240v appliances can be much more powerful and are often commercial quality.This is a cool design, it's essentially 2 inverters that will parallel for 120v or run in series for 240v.It's quiet, fuel efficient, it's got loads of power, and easy to move around. A++ in my book!

This wen inverter generator is awesome. Perfect for boondocking our camper and quiet too! Have a normal conversation while standing beside the unit. Push button start is a great feature as wel as the fuel shut off to prevent the carb from gumming up after sitting for long periods. It ran both my camper ac units, a coleman 15k btu and 13,500 btu. Great purchase and upgrade to keep sensitive electronics safe.

I purchased a set of them and the parallel cable. Judging by the fact the case was popped apart on one. And the poorly running engine which I later found out leaked fluid. I would say they rolled around in a truck, or got dropped. The boxes didn't look terribly bad, but not good. Neither arrived in working condition. WEN has been a good brand, long lasting, they probably just need a little more reinforcement in the boxes and better padding. This was my first try with inverter generators. So far Amazon has refunded one says they will refund the other and will not pay for disposal fees. (Understandable but still frustrating).

This generator is super quiet, easy to run and arrived on-time with no issues. I'm very impressed. This is my first Wen generator and the build quality and performance is great. I've done some testing running a single 15k AC unit on a trailer (likely would run two if both had soft starts). I've also tested it with my whole home generlink transfer switch and it was able to run everything in my home, minus the ac units and hot tub. The generator is small and light enough to be portable, but powerful enough to run large loads. I'm very happy with it and highly recommend!

All in all the generator runs fine. The documentation is very poor. No where in documents does it tell you what these symbols are. I was able to figure it out but others will have issues. I saw on other models they have words instead of symbols.In case anyone wants to know what the symbols are. Going from top then clockwise:Engine off, fuel off, run, chokeAfter 8 hour break in upate:I don't think the wheels are going to last. I used this over 4 days. I wheeled it from garage to backyard all on level concrete garage and side walk. No grass or dirt. The wheels look shot and I'm trying to figure out how to get over grass to backyard shed.On the plus side I'm still on first 20 pound propane tank and its pretty quiet. Noise is between AC and lawnmower. I loaded with refrigerator, coffee maker, toaster oven and about 2 rooms of lights and TVs using plugged into generator interlock inlet to house.

This hard-to-find WEN DF500ix is my third generator and definitely my favorite. I have a 9-year-old open frame Predator 4000 that had only been started for maintenance until Hurricane Helene. During the storm it worked flawlessly but was annoyingly loud. After the storm, I started prepping for the next power outage and locked it on the DF500ix after hours of research. But, it was never in stock even on the WEN site. While waiting for the DF500ix to become available, I stumbled upon a brand-new WEN 3600 Watt "suitcase" inverter generator for a steal.The DF500ix has push-button start, 240v output, duel fuel and toolless propane connect. Honestly, I don’t NEED any of those features but love that the DF500ix has them.The wheels and collapsing handle are a back saver. The wheels are secured with a bolt (10mm socket) into what appears to be a single rod running the length of the back of the generator. From what I can see, the wheels are sturdy, but if they were to fail, they can be easily replaced.The small data display is helpful as you don't need to add an additional hour meter. The display shows output volts, hertz, session run time and total run time. It would have been interesting to have an RPM meter also.WEN customer service let me know that a magnetic oil dipstick is not available since the DF500ix "utilizes 1/4 turn style with metal rod dip stick." With that in mind, after swapping out the OEM sparkplug with an NGK, I went overboard on the break-in with variable load - 1, 2, and 5-hour oil changes. Full-synthetic oil for 2nd and 3rd oil changes.As noted by another reviewer, WEN does not provide a legend for the 4-in-1 dial. This is a fail, and makes first operation unnecessarily confusing. In comparison, the WEN 3600 has a description next to each symbol on the dial.Finally, while the DF500ix is quiet, I don't agree that it is "extremely quiet" as the product description says. Subjectively, I'd rank the Predator 5000 Super Quiet inverter generators as extremely quiet, but I don't have any objective dB measurements. Of my three generators, the DF500ix is the quietest--it has a low rumble that is more agreeable than a higher-pitched sound.

dumped the oil in, connected the battery super easy.loaded self adjusting idle, push button start, pole starts in one pole, not overly noisy.i’ve only use this generator for 5 hours but so far it’s been great. Puts out at least 3.3 kWh.on the 240 outlet.it was a great price and so far so good.
