Jeremy - I second your positive opinion of the propane Honda Twin GX-6xx
engines for generator use, and I'm also intrigued by the Wildcat product
using them for that reason. I have a client with a 10+ year old Coleman
(back when they made real generators!) 9.5 kW propane generator with the
Honda GX
I have had good luck with Koehler 12kWRES and 15kW propane units lasting well
over 10yrs in off grid usage. A couple of which I know have only had bare
minimum maintenance, i.e. oil changes and filters etc. I have a couple larger
(~20kW) off grid systems that have 25kW Diesel Koehler units. On

another contractor on her shingle roof. Almost immediately it started
having loud popping noises intermittently, but pretty consistently day to
day. The homeowner thought it sounded like expansion and contraction. That

We've seen such poor reliability with the Ecogens, that we can't
recommend them anymore. We've seen as high as 50% failure rates in full
time off grid use as backup. Charging batteries for hours is a very
hard load and does not compare to biweekly exercise mode. The failures
have been fairly
Gary,
Interesting that you bring up Generac in response to my request. The
customer for whom I made this request for recommendations has a dead
Generac EcoGen 15kW at her property now. I don't know what's wrong with
it; it had failed before she bought the property. But she had it checked
