300 bucks is a ridiculous price for this kit

I have an inverter generator that is open frame

I think you will find that new model does not use the Loncin engine but another make . Please check and verify . Thanks

There's no way to use natural gas with it?

Propane has 2500 BTU per ft3. Natural Gas is usually around 1000 BTU per ft3. Only one thing to watch is that some areas deliver 2PSI and 1/4PSI at the meter residential. At least where I am located. That would require another 2 PSI/ inches system regulator.

Looks like max surge of 2 kilowatts + a bit on propane with a max rated surge of 2200 watts on gasoline so a ~10% probable? reduction in max surge on propane. A key is watching the voltage - for a little while when just some of the second heater was added (2 kilowatts added?) so into the short term surge range it kept the voltage just above 120 volts. Probably with the bit more power on gasoline it would have made it to the rated short time surge of 2200 while keeping the voltage just above 120. Then when clearly overloaded with 2 heaters on it lowered the voltage to around 100 but still around 2 kilowatts on its way to overload warning - shutdown? Looks like your propane set up may well have a running wattage of 1800 watts because it was able to get into the surge range of 2 kilowatts on propane. Long running on propane with a 1800 watt load and 120 volts maintained with engine and exhaust and inverter temps taken and compared to those temps taken under the same operating conditions on gasoline would tell the tale as to a "rated" running watts on propane. propane has great convenience for intermittent use (no bad gas killing carb operation) or use where propane fuel cost is not a concern.

I think the models advised not fit a gas kit are the older honda generators that had dodgy spark plug caps making the spark insufficient change the cap or try some dielectric grease on the spark plug top and and always on the thread to help with replacing spark plugs as i do on my cars helps them from seizing in the engine block and snapping , but in this case makes them easier to remove

Duramax generator is way better quality

We like our propane equipment because it runs cooler.And the oil is always sparkling clean after two hundred hours of hard use

First, love you vids, so much info, AWESOME! I hope this question hasn't been asked yet. So, if I buy your kit and use propane, do I need to change the carb main jet that they give to run it at a higher elevation?? Up hunting the elevation is between 8000 to 9500. Just wondering because I don't know if the propane runs through the carb?? Thanks

Do you have the exhaust extension for sale?

Where can I get a magnetic oil drain plug? Is there a part number and mfr name? Thanks

Just saw your tutorial video. Let me say this, "I Read & keep the instructions for all my units." This is a grow A@$ man channel. Excellent instructions, Sir. 👍🏾😎👍🏾

Did you wait 30 hours for the first maintenance? On my 3500 I did it at 10, then 40, then 100. 30 seems a bit excessive.

i hear that wheel rattling lol

I used champion

We’ll say you are a awesome person thank you for your contribution

the 3500 was around $600 last week and the 5000 was around $800. I am not a HF fanboi, but this review is BS. Buy what you need. If 120v will work, go for it. If 240v is a requiremet for you look elsewhere....

A 120v generator that is advertised as such is something people hate because it can't do 240v? Wow.... Can we relegate these people to another country?

that exhaust ex can also be turned up via electrical conduit. into a 3 or 4 in pvc stack-able stack to get the exhaust to go up and away from where the unit is parked. just need to build a base to keep the pvc up right and inches off the ground. (allows cold air in the bottom). no cap on top, unless you will be running in heavy rain. then place a T and a couple 6 in lengths on top to help keep the rain out. all this would exit a good two feet over the roof of your rv, or home. gets the exhaust up and away. will also cut back on some of the DB's, coming from the unit.

as for fuel, buy real gasoline, not the watered down junk at the pump. i live a very long ways from a place that sales elthonel free gasoline, so i pay the price at a big box store $24.00USD a gallon. it can store in a sealed can for years. is there a source for "rubber" wheels? not balloon, but more solid. just not the cheap plastic.

I’m really impressed of what you have done. I just recently bought a Harbor Freight 5000 and I would like to hook it up to my big propane tank outback and live in Melbourne, Arkansas off grid up in the hills Mount Olive and I know nothing about how to do this. That’s why I’m interested in buying your accessory. If it could be pre-adjusted for that would be wonderful. Anyway, you can let me know how much way I could buy it from you. Also, noticed in one of your videos you done the exhaust I would like to buy that from you also, thank you very much and hopefully I hear from you soon. Have a wonderful and blessed day again, thank you. 0:

Seafoam also has fuel stabilizer in it

Very cool!

Thanks for your detailed videos, the trolls can piss off. We appreciate you 🙏

I've done two of these kits. The kit comes with longer bolts for the carb adapter. The OEM bolts had square heads. The kit comes with round heads. Looking at this design, I soldered in a paper clip. Cut it to just fit without the chance of spinning. Some folks might not have trouble with the round heads. I wanted to make sure I didn't have trouble. Other than that, the kit worked really good. The inner gasket was a bit of work to clean off. (very important). I'll be doing more of these kits. ....

That lock tight can be removed by heating with either a heat gun or a hairdryer

You do a great job on these videos. One request… If you could post links on where you can buy the stuff online. For us first time, generator owners, taking off panels and showing installation would be helpful. Again, enjoy your videos, and keep up the good work

Will this work on the latest version (November 2024) of the Predator 5000 generator? Thank you! Looks like a quality product!

What's Black Friday this week? I was thinking about purchasing. A new one was torn between the thirty five hundred and the five thousand is there a difference in the noise between them which one do you prefer

I bought one and fired it up. Used propane which is a great alternative. I let it run for an hour or so then plugged my RV into it - nothing. Plugged in a standard shop light - nothing. Engine ran great but no juice. Returned it…

You spent a full minute complaining about haters… welcome to UA-cam, not sure what you’re expecting.

“Showcase” is not a synonym of “show”. You just mean “show”

Will this work for the generac iX2000?

Installed this kit 1 month ago and have had no issues. Install was clearly demonstrated by this video and actually did it with my son to let him tinker. Great quality product worth the little bit extra investment. Thanks!

Was it still there in the morning?😊

Where can I get Nr. 4?

Do you think that the 5000 is a lot bit more than what I need for an apartment, any suggestions?

Great info! Do you sell the exhaust pipe extension that I saw in your video? If so I would like to get one

HEY! YOU TALK TOO MUCH! LOL, just kidding I enjoy your videos.

Links to those parts?

Made in China no thanks

Comparing the cost of a 7500W to the cost of a 3900W is definitely SUS.

Keep up the good work G very helpful and educational

Just received my natural gas and propane kit. Really wanted to say thank you!!!!!! I love your videos and this was the last one I needed. Just survived Helene in Asheville NC and wish I had the Natural gas conversion then. I really wanted the 1/2 25 foot hose but thought it was too expensive. I was wondering why you don’t offer the lower price 25ft gas line from harbor freight?

why dont these pod casters have another person hold the camera. ul listed just says they did not give a bunch of them to a US corp to test and destroy, nor give the US government a couple hundred thousand USD for the mark and numbers.

Great video dude 👍 thanks

Without a 30 amp 220 output it’s a waist of generator period. You need that not to run an ac system but so you can hook up to a fuse panel to get it inside. Using extension cords is dumb now days

I bought a 5000 on line from Harbor Freight and within a few days I decided that it was not what I wanted. It was returned in the unused condition in which I got it. However they charged $220 for restocking this item'. PREDATOR is a good name, and that company will notget any more business from me.

Really appreciate how much thought and effort you put into these conversions. I've been really curious about the A-iPower GXS7100 that costco has on sale right now. Have you taken a look at that or the similar A-iPower SUA7600? I'm really new to this world and it's not clear to me how universal some of these kits can be, like I see that you have one on your site for the A-iPower SUA2000, but no other models. I've also been curious about the Duromax XP7000, and I see you have other Duromax conversion kits but not for that model. Are there any good approaches to converting the models I've listed here if you don't yet have a kit for them? I'm specifically really after a closed frame inverter in the 5000+ running watt range.
