Product Summary

Remember when your backup plan had a backup plan? Whether we're providing your home electricity during a crisis or charging your family's cellphones at the campgrounds, WEN has been reliably lighting up lives since 1951. Now, with the WEN 14500-Watt Tri Fuel Electric Start Generator, you’ll be able to pull power from three different sources. Simply select your preferred method – gasoline, propane, or natural gas – and power on. With 14500 surge and 11500 running watts on gasoline, 12500 surge and 10300 running watts on LPG, and 10500 surge and 8750 running watts on NG, it’s durable enough for the job site and reliable enough for home emergency backup. Electric start lets you power up your generator with the turn of a key, and includes a recoil starter as backup. Our packed panel features four three-prong 120V NEMA 5-20R outlets, a 120V/240V 30A NEMA L14-30R outlet, a 120V/240V 50A NEMA 14-50R outlet, and a standard 12V DC automotive outlet. The onboard data meter digitally displays voltage, frequency, total runtime, and session runtime to help keep tabs on maintenance intervals. Run your lights, TV, refrigerator, sump pump, power tools, or other essentials with ease. 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. The wheel and handle kit makes transportation easier than ever, while the included six-foot LPG hose allows for immediate connection to propane tanks. Thanks to its 240V capability, powerful 500cc engine, and included NG quick-connect adapter, this generator is the perfect portable alternative to hefty and expensive standby units (NOTE: NG hose not included / sold separately, part no. TF1450X-1431). Simply connect the NEMA L14-30R or 14-50R outlet to your transfer switch for power when and where you need it. Fill the gas tank with up to 8.2 gallons of gasoline for a half-load runtime of up to 12 hours. Compatible with the WEN 56413 Generator Cover and the WEN GNA273 Magnetic Dipstick. And because it’s a WEN product, your generator comes backed by a three-year limited warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians, a stocked inventory of replacement parts, and a friendly customer helpline. Remember when you didn’t have to worry about the power going out? Remember WEN.

Questions

1–7 of 7 Questions  
Sort by:

  1. Can I use two extension cords with this generator at the same time—one connected to the 120V outlets and the other to the 220V outlet—to get power from both simultaneously?

    1 answer

    1. Multiple extension cord can be used with the generator at the same time, as long as you do not exceed the total capacity of the outlets or the generator.

      Helpful?

  2. Can this generator be used in Europe 

    1 answer

    1. The generator could not be used in Europe. It is built for US standards at 120V/240V 60 Hz, Europe is 230V/400V at 50 Hz.

      Helpful?

  3. What is the decibel rating on this generator? Does it have or be set up with a remote start? 

    1 answer

    1. The generator is rated at 74 decibels (DBA). It does not have remote start and could not be set up with remote start.

      Helpful?

  4. Does this unit contain an oil filter system? 

    1 answer

    1. This generator does not have an oil filter system. It uses a 4-stroke engine that relies on a splash lubrication system rather than a pressurized filter system.

      Helpful?

  5. Amp load?

    1 answer

    1. The generator has a maximum running load of 95.8 amps at 120 volts and 47.9 amps at 240 volts on gasoline. For propane, it would be 85.8 amps at 120 volts, 42.9 amps at 240 volts. Natural gas would be 72.9 amps at 120 volts and 36.4 amps at 240 volts.

      Helpful?

  6. I am intending to use the 50 amp receptacle mainly, but I am curious if I can also plug into the standard 15 amp outlets to power a cordless tool battery charger at the same time as I am using the 5o amp service?

    1 answer

    1. You can plug a 15-amp power tool cordless charger into one of the 120 volt outlets for charging a tool.

      Helpful?

  7. Can you run the 30 and the 50 at the same time?

    1 answer

    1. You are unable to use the 30 amp and 50 amp receptacle simultaneously. The receptacles are designed to be run alternatively. The receptacles will draw from the same source internally. Using them at the same time may exceed the generators capacity and cause damage.
