A fuel is any material that can be made to react with other substances so that it releases energy as thermal energy or to be used for work. The concept was originally applied solely to those materials capable of releasing chemical energy but has since also been applied to other sources of heat energy, such as nuclear energy (via nuclear fission and nuclear fusion).
The heat energy released by reactions of fuels can be converted into mechanical energy via a heat engine. Other times, the heat itself is valued for warmth, cooking, or industrial processes, as well as the illumination that accompanies combustion. Fuels are also used in the cells of organisms in a process known as cellular respiration, where organic molecules are oxidized to release usable energy. Hydrocarbons and related organic molecules are by far the most common source of fuel used by humans, but other substances, including radioactive metals, are also utilized.
Fuels are contrasted with other substances or devices storing potential energy, such as those that directly release electrical energy (such as batteries and capacitors) or mechanical energy (such as flywheels, springs, compressed air, or water in a reservoir).
Generator may refer to:
- Signal generator, electronic devices that generate repeating or non-repeating electronic signals
- Electric generator, a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy.
- Tidal stream generator, a machine that extracts energy from moving masses of water
- Generator (circuit theory), an element in an abstract circuit providing a source of electricity
- Engine-generator, an electric generator with its own engine
- Wearable generator, a hypothetical generator that can be worn on the human body
- Gas generator a device, often similar to a solid rocket or a liquid rocket that burns to produce large volumes of relatively cool gas
- Motor–generator, a device for converting electrical power to another form
- Atmospheric water generator, a device capable of extracting water from air
A pulsar (from pulsating radio source) is a highly magnetized rotating neutron star that emits beams of electromagnetic radiation out of its magnetic poles. This radiation can be observed only when a beam of emission is pointing toward Earth (similar to the way a lighthouse can be seen only when the light is pointed in the direction of an observer), and is responsible for the pulsed appearance of emission. Neutron stars are very dense and have short, regular rotational periods. This produces a very precise interval between pulses that ranges from milliseconds to seconds for an individual pulsar. Pulsars are one of the candidates for the source of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. (See also centrifugal mechanism of acceleration.)
Pulsars’ highly regular pulses make them very useful tools for astronomers. For example, observations of a pulsar in a binary neutron star system were used to indirectly confirm the existence of gravitational radiation. The first extrasolar planets were discovered in 1992 around a pulsar, specifically PSR B1257+12. In 1983, certain types of pulsars were detected that, at that time, exceeded the accuracy of atomic clocks in keeping time.
Start can refer to multiple topics:
- Takeoff, the phase of flight where an aircraft transitions from moving along the ground to flying through the air
- Starting lineup in sports
- Standing start, and rolling start, in an auto race

Already bought one of these, just today ordered my 2nd one. I haven’t put it to hard use yet, did hook it up to my welder and done some welding, it really had no problem and the generator barely did have any drain on it. It starts up easily all I’m using so far is the propane, you do have to set the choke to start it up. Some oil in the crankcase or smell of gas is normal as that’s how they test these things when building them in case you’re wondering.

I purchased this generator to back feed my homes panel using an interlock kit on a 50 amp circuit. Currently I have broken in the unit, changed the oil, and then have done some basic load testing. I ran the unit on propane and have a trifuel conversion coming so that I can run natural gas off my line. I have extensively load tested this generator while providing power to my home. For reference- I have a 3800 sq ft 2 story with two 4 ton AC units. Without AC, my home draws about 2-3 kW with every light and fan on, and the fridge running, which this generator handled without any problem. The generator can easily power an AC unit. Starting the generator under minimal load (fridge and a couple lights), the inrush load as the AC compressor kicked on caused a noticeable strain to the generator for a couple seconds, but nothing of concern. once on-line it powered the AC unit and every light, fridge, appliance I could imagine needing without any problem at all. The generator operated at 61 Hz without load to 60Hz under full load without any adjustments to the governor, and I have no worry about powering more sensitive electronics. All operation was on normal propane, and based on the multimeter readings I feel pretty confident I could start both AC units on gasoline without issue and probably keep them both running with everything else we need on natural gas .That said, in an emergency I don’t need two AC units and I plan to run on gasoline only if I lose the other two options. My biggest issue is this might be too powerful. Generators need to be exercised at >50% load from time to time to maintain performance. It takes everything I have to put a sustained 50% load on this generator. Still, I strongly recommend over sizing to allow extra headroom, not only so that it can handle inrush demand, but also considering the full power is only available on (ethanol free) gasoline. All dual fuel generators lose about 15-20% of their max output on propane. For oil changes, make sure you have a way to elevate the generator, as the drain plug is very low and it is impossible to get a pan under it otherwise. Also he sure to break in per manufacture recommendation, it is absolutely necessary.

I was looking for a good one and I find this. Good prices I like how this work.

Awesome unit. I like that it runs on both propane and fuel gas and that you can switch back and forth between them by just flicking a switch. The electric start is nice too. I did have to call tech support as I had trouble getting it started on both methods. They were very nice and helpful and not hard to get a hold of like some companies these days. The issues were: 1) I didn’t have the oil filled enough. I put in a whole quart, but it takes about a quart and a half (or more!) 2) For propane, it ended up being a defective tank that I just got filled. It worked with my bbq but not the generator, for whatever reason. Weird I swapped tanks and it started right up. 3) For fuel, I misread the fuel switch and had it in the closed position and not open. DOH! It runs great and does not seem very loud. I just had my house electrical panel wired so that I can run the whole house. It tested great when shutting the power off. Will need to see how it does in a real or longer power outage in real time. I am sure it will do fine.
