This category covers standalone base models only: bundles, accessories, transfer switches, whole-home standby units, and onboard RV generators are out of scope. Every core specification is normalized from official manufacturer sources with per-field provenance, and safety-sensitive fields follow stricter publication rules — a model with ambiguous CO-shutdown documentation is not published at all. Fuel generators are outdoor-only equipment: they produce carbon monoxide and are never apartment- or indoor-suitable, which is exactly the kind of cross-category fact this index records explicitly.", "attributes": [ { "key": "running_watts", "label": "Running (rated) watts", "unit": "W", "description": "Rated continuous output on the primary fuel.
