The Champion Power Equipment 201160 MKE 12000 Portable Generator is designed with your safety and convenience in mind. Owning this rugged 12,000-watt generator means the next time there's an outage, the power in your house stays on.

For projects, the massive 717cc Milwaukee Series V-Twin Engine has what it takes to handle the multiple power tools and large equipment you need to get the job done. Champion's got convenience covered. You'll appreciate the handy electric start with included battery, plus Cold Start Technology ensures a quick start in cold weather.

The Intelligauge monitors voltage, frequency and operating hours, while the Lift Hook, foldaway U-shaped handle and never flat tires make it easy to load, unload and move your power where you need it. At 15,000 starting watts and 12,000 running watts, this powerful unit has a durable steel frame and can handle it all in an outage, lights, sump pump, refrigerator, modem/router, security system, window AC, furnace blower, fan, TV/DVD, computer, well pump, microwave and will start and run a central AC with a manual transfer switch (not included).

Not only that, but the Volt Guard built-in surge protector prevents overloads and keeps your equipment safe from spikes in voltage. This powerful generator features CO Shield carbon monoxide auto shutoff system, plus it has better fuel economy, lower emissions, and reduced friction for less wear and longer life thanks to the newly designed Milwaukee-VTwin engine.

The engine's 90-degree V-Twin design results in superior balance and low vibration, plus the fan reduces noise and ensures maximum airflow. All the outlets have covers for protection and include 120V 30A (L5-30R) and 120/240V 30A (L14-30R) locking outlets, a 120/240V 50A outlet (14-50R) and four 120V 20A GFCI-protected household outlets (5-20R).

Fill up the 11-gallon tank of gasoline, and enjoy up to 9 hours of power at 50% load. From 23 feet, the noise level is 78 dBA, similar to what you'd hear curbside on a busy street. This unit has a low oil shut-off sensor and includes 1.5 quarts of 5W-30 engine oil so all you'll need to buy is gasoline.

This generator is EPA certified. Buy with confidence, Champion Support and our nationwide network of service centers will back your purchase up with a 3-year limited warranty and FREE lifetime technical support. CO Shield technology monitors the accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas produced by engine exhaust when the generator is running.

If CO Shield detects unsafe elevated levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine. CO Shield is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or for safe operation. DO NOT allow engine exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through windows, doors, vents or other openings.

Generators must ALWAYS be used outdoors, far away from occupied buildings with engine exhaust pointed away from people and buildings. Meets the requirements of ANSI/PGMA G300-2018.
