Product Description
Ideal for use on farms and ranches, maintenance, construction, and even emergency power outages at home, the DuroStar DS4000WGE gas-powered generator has a 16.0-horsepower, 480cc engine that cranks out 3,500 constant running watts of power (and a peak of 4,000 watts; learn more about wattage needs below). It includes both a standard recoil start as well as an easy electric start.
Additionally, the DS4000WGE power generator doubles as a powerful arc welder, and it's designed for stick welding with quick, easy arc starts. It has a welding output current of 150 amps with an amp range of 50-210 amps and voltage range of 26-30 volts (DC).
Note for California residents: This model is not CARB-compliant. Units sold to California must be CARB-compliant.
The power panel features the main controls, including start switch, volt meter, and circuit breaker. It offers two 120-volt, 20-amp, 3-prong outlets to supply power to all of your home appliances, plus one 120-volt, 30-amp three-prong twist-lock outlet for high-powered tools.
With the electric start, it's as simple to get this generator going as turning on your car. And if the battery isn't fully charged, you can use the single-pull recoil cord to start the generator.
The DS4000WGE has an 8-hour run time at 1/2 load, and it has a 7-gallon fuel tank that also includes an easily readable gauge. The heavy duty steel frame has four-point fully isolated motor mounts for smooth and quiet operation. This generator is also easily portable thanks to the wheel kit with large, all-terrain knobby tires that will never deflate and a flip-up, stow-away handle. Other features include a super quiet muffler that reduces engine noise, and automatic low-oil shut off to protect the engine. Backed by a 1-year limited warranty.

Your Generator Needs
To determine whether a generator is appropriate for your needs, you need to first add up the wattage of tools, appliances, and motors you want to run at the same time. Then select a generator with the running wattage rating to match or exceed the total load.
Keep in mind that tools and appliances with electric motors require additional surge wattage at startup that can be double or triple the normal running wattage requirement. Look at the surge watts required and make sure you choose a generator with enough additional wattage to start them. (And remember that you're typically not starting more than half of the items at the same time.)
Here's a sampling of power ratings for common household appliances.
