Who makes this generator? I was looking for a natural gas conversion kit and Powerland was not listed so I need an alternative.

Powerland: http://www.powerlandonline.com/ Who makes the engine? : Powerland I don't know about conversion kits, but Powerland does sell tri-powered models: gasoline, propane(LPG), natural gas(NG) A quick google search yields a third-party conversion kit: http://www.centuryfuelproducts.com/

I have no idea how it would do with a generator, but I can tell you I bought the thing either last year, or year before, and I'm happily running it right now. Like the thing a lot, but I think it needs a standard outlet.

While I have not tried a natural gas conversion, Generac's website on its LP portable generators cautions against using natural gas. They say that they don't have conversion kits, and that most codes don't allow portable LP generators to be hooked to a natural gas line. To use natural gas, Generac recommends using a solid mounted home generator.

I do not see any adaption stock on this generator... possibly aftermarket.... like Yamaha..... but I don't think so......

Hello CC,Thank you for your question. The NG in the product name indicates that it uses natural gas. For propane, search for FVI-12-LP. Here is the link to buy on Amazon: Eccotemp FVI-12-LP High Capacity Propane Tankless Water HeaterKind Regards,RossGadgetsGo305-791-1101

It's not recommend . I was told by the company to use an Ethanol treatment in the gas. This generator you do not mix oil in the gas . That means it needs oil put in it .

I would also like to know who makes a conversion for this unit. Would be nice to have propane.

There is a person selling this exact same set-up (this 30-watt solar panel and a duracell 600 power pack), for $400. He calls this same combo "solar generator plug n play ...". Check-out his ad both here and on fleabay. He's apparently using the adapter that came with this solar panel. (Even if you end up buying an adapter, you will still be saving money.) Buy these two items (solar panel and battery) - Save about 100 dollars!When you get the correct info on the adapters - please post it here! Try their 1-800 phone number -- For accurate information

The generator listed #56352 is a gas unit. No oil mixing with gas.It runs on regular.

From what I gather you're pretty much on your own with this generator. The original manufacturer went out of business. No warranty or service outlets I'm aware of that support this product. That said, I've had pretty good luck so far with mine, about a year old now... we'll see?

It was included, it's been a great generator. I've only run it on propane. It runs a vacuum and a carpet cleaner at the same time, about 25 amp draw with no problems.

I would definitely recommend adding a sub panel with all of the critical circuits you would need in the event of a power failure. This way you can pick and choose what appliances to run when you need them. Also eliminates the need for multiple extension cords. Generac makes a nice kit to use with that generator

No, it is built to run on gasoline. If you want a natural gas generator check out generac

A company out of California ships them. They are call "duropower". It's a great generator that still starts at 1 or 2 pulls

We had an issue with this generator as well. When we first tried to use it, the generator ran but did not convert the gas to electricity. We notified amazon and was shipped a new one. The new one worked perfectly. I think that you may have a lemon like our first one.

I see only negative replies on the operation of this generator converted to natural gas. My natural gas BBQ is not a stationary appliance and I don't have the need for an embedded generator.
