Champion’s 11,000-watt inverter generator is built for when the power grid goes dark and you need to keep your home’s essentials running. Its standout feature is the remote start, letting you fire it up from inside your house during a storm. That convenience, paired with CO Shield’s automatic shutoff for safety, makes it a serious backup power solution.

The 459cc engine delivers 11,000 starting watts and 9,000 running watts. That’s enough to simultaneously handle a central air conditioner, refrigerator, and several lights or a TV. As an inverter, it provides clean, stable power for sensitive electronics like laptops and phones. You’ll notice it runs quieter and more efficiently than a conventional open-frame generator of this size.

At over 200 pounds, it’s portable on paper with its wheels, but moving it is a two-person job. Fuel consumption is significant under full load, so plan your gasoline storage accordingly. For extended outages or demanding job sites, this generator’s robust output and smart features justify its footprint.
