I will have to re-watch a YouTube video from love your RV. A few weeks ago I watch that video and it turned me off of the energizer product. I don’t remember what it was, so I’ll have to rewatch.

Thank you for the feedback.

I watched his review too and if I remember correctly it was the way the catches on some access panels were angled that he disliked but I don't think it'd be a turn off.
Check out the parallel cables offered for the Energizer inverter generator.

I saw that too and the thing I did not like was the oil fill. I was way inside the panels and you needed a special container to fill it. That turned me off right there. I don't want to have to have some odd container that I need to keep track of just to fill the oil.

For me, I like the champion remote start model. It has an RV style plug so it is ready to go. Dual fuel would be nice and perhaps champion will add remote start to it's existing dual fuel product in the future.

I would go with gas and remote start if I was doing it again. Right now I have gas and a pull cord.

What are your thoughts on these two features specifically?

I find it interesting I can’t find a unit with both features.

Thank you in advance!

Why not both? When I ordered my 3400 Remote start, gasoline Champion, I simply asked that they install the regulator for propane and natural gas. I think it cost me an extra $150, Can't remember exactly. But being able to use propane in a pinch is HUGE. Also the DW who was never able to pull start anything, loves the remote starter. Let me know if you want a link to the Champion dealer I went through. The guy was great, he through in a high altitude jet, when he heard that we boondock on our property at 4200', also he installed an hour gauge for free. I can't say enough good things about our Champion Triple fuel remote start inverter/generator
