All of the generator's outlets are circuit-breaker protected to safeguard your electronics. .Engine is Easy-to-Operate, Durable, and EfficientThe TG72K12 features a powerful, 14-horsepower, 420-cc, four-stroke, gas-powered OHV engine that is capable of producing 7,250 continuous watts and 8,250 maximum watts. Its easy-pull recoil and electric-start make for reliable startups every time.
The engine isn't just powerful, it's also quiet. Thanks to its oversized muffler, the TG72K12 portable generator produces sound at just 70 decibels during operation.
And with a 6.42-gallon fuel tank and efficient power delivery, the engine is capable of running a 50-percent load for up to 10-1/2 hours or a 100-percent load for 6 hours and 36 minutes.
The engine also features auto throttle control technology, which automatically speeds up the engine when power is needed. This helps increase the longevity of the engine and also increases fuel efficiency.
Alternator Technology Safely Delivers Electricity to Your AppliancesOne of the most innovative features of the TG72K12 is its ETQ Clean Sine Alternator Technology that ensures low total harmonic distortion (THD). THD is a measure of the quality of the electricity produced by a generator, and THD above six percent can damage electronics and other components over time. With THD of less than five percent, the TG72K12 ensures high-quality, safe delivery of electricity from the generator to your electrical components.
With low THD, this generator is computer-friendly, meaning it's completely safe to use with laptops, printers, desktop computers, and more. The TG72K12 will give you peace of mind knowing that your computer hardware is completely safe from power surges and bad-quality electricity.
Up to 8,250 Watts Power Most of Your Household ItemsThe TG72K12 produces up to 8,250 watts of power to run most of your electrically powered household items. You can use the 120-volt, 20-amp GFCI-protected outlets to simultaneously power lamps, TVs, computers, fans, or other low-wattage appliances. Or you can power 240-volt appliances, such as your water heater, using the convenient 240-volt twist-lock outlet. Additionally, there's an included 120-volt, 30-amp RV connection for added versatility.
Heavy-Duty Steel Construction That's Built for PortabilityEverything--from the engine's heavy-duty cast-iron sleeves to the durable one-inch rolled steel tubing surround--is built to last. And with semi-pneumatic foam wheels and a fold-down handle, the generator is easy to move and store. The generator weights 207 pounds and measures just 32.87 x 22.24 x 23.82 inches (LxWxH).
Outlets Feature Circuit-Breaker ProtectionThe generator offers several ways to connect your appliances or electrical equipment. There are two 120-volt outlets available for most of your everyday, low-wattage appliances, such as fans, TVs, computers, microwaves, and toasters. There's also a convenient, 240-volt twist-lock outlet for running single, higher-wattage appliances and electrical equipment, such as water heaters or central air conditioners. Finally, there's a 120-volt, 30-amp RV connection for even more usage options.
All of the outlets on the TG72K12 Portable Generator are circuit-breaker protected to eliminate the risk of power-surge damage, which can potentially ruin your appliances and electrical equipment.

Customer Reviews
Wow, this is a large generator, 29"W x 28"H x 30"L with wheel kit installed. The unit looks just as pictured. Very happy with the shipping, unit was delivered by ABF without a scratch. They had a lift gate and a cart to move the unit right up into the garage. First order of business was to place the wheels on the unit, this proved to be simpler then I originally thought. I cut the box off of the unit and tilted the unit up on it's side and placed the wheels on with the provide brackets and bolts. I had the unit ready for gas in about 30 minutes of delivery. Oh, but not so fast, I had other work that was required before I would put this baby to the test. My next purchase from Amazon was the GenTran 301660 30 Amp 6-Circuit Transfer Switch for up to 7,500-Watt Generators. Well, I just finished the connection of this unit to my home. It proved to be simple, but if you have no electrical experience I would recommend you get a professional electrician, balancing the loads is important and may be beyond the normal do-it yourselfer. So today I fired this baby up. I added oil and a little gas and flipped the switch and within 2 cranks this unit was running. I let the unit stablize for about 5 minutes and then I connected my 30 AMP cord to the Transfer Switch and turned on the breaker and transferred my home circuits to the unit. I noticed that my A-Phase was pulling about 3750 Watts and B-Phase about 750 watts. I was confused on what was going on because I was sure that I had balanced my loads. After further investigation I realized that my wife had the washing machine going, although the unit was operating with this large difference on the phases it was holding the load just fine! The rest of the house lit up just as if we had never lost power. I ran the unit for another 15 minutes and turned off the loads. I then turned off the fuel valve and allowed the generator to run out the fuel in the bowl and line. I use STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer in my tank so I'm hoping it's good for a year. Well, this baby seems to work perfectly, the real test will be when we have one of those ice storms or those hurricanes that we here in Virginia always look forward too. Now I need to look into stockpiling some gas. :)
I noticed that in another review on this unit that there was a complaint on the location of the pull cord. I took a note from reviews of the smaller unit and drilled a hole in the frame located directly in line with the pull cord and fed the cord through there and placed a grommet in the hole. Works superb, best $.50 I ever spent. My cord is now located right below the on/off switch. I highly recommend this small enhancement because as the previous reviewer said it is in an awkward place.

Live in Clear Lake City ( between Galveston and Houston)and Ike( the Hurricane) took the power away on Friday Morning around 1:30 AM. Once the wind was down and my neighbors could get out into the weather without worring about projectiles, they got out the new generator, added the oil and gasoline. On the third pull it started. It has run 7 days without stopping, well shutting it down to to fill it up with gasoline. What was good about this model is that it has 4 ea. 120 outlets, and I was able to share with a neighbor. Also, was suprized that it was running over 10 hours before having to refill the tank. The only problem that I had is the generator just shut OFF own it's own several times with plenty of gasoline. Only took one pull to start it back up, after turning OFF the breaker and the KEY. Loaning it out to a friend that still does not have a generator. Have three neighbor that are going to look into getting them one. Also, they like the deal that I got with Amazon.com. It is not on right now. It was delivered to my house with a truck that had a lift and a dolly to get it to the garage, I was at work and the wife (66) could not help with this.
