| Summary | The Firman H03655 is a 3,650-watt dual-fuel generator built around a 208 cc OHV 4-stroke engine with a cast iron sleeve. Running on gasoline, it delivers 4,550 starting watts and 3,650 running watts. Switch to propane and output drops to 4,100 starting watts and 3,300 running watts. This power level runs a refrigerator, microwave, window air conditioner, or multiple power tools simultaneously. The dual-fuel flexibility means you can operate on whichever fuel is available, a practical advantage during extended outages or when propane storage is more convenient than gasoline.
At 67 dB at quarter load, the H03655 operates quietly enough for residential neighborhoods without disturbing neighbors. The 5-gallon tank delivers 14 hours of runtime at 50 percent load on gasoline, translating to roughly one full day of moderate use before refueling. The RV-ready configuration and included wheel kit position this unit as a go-anywhere power source for camping, job sites, and home backup scenarios. | The Powermate PM3800 is a durable and compact portable generator, ideal for home use and DIY projects. It features a Generac 212cc OHV engine, delivering 3800 starting watts and 3000 running watts. The generator offers a 21-hour runtime at 25% load, facilitated by a 5-gallon fuel tank. Its POWERDIAL™ simplifies the startup process with an integrated off/run/choke knob. |
