Our Technology

In order for an engine to run, fuel must be added to it. Traditionally, carburetors have been the fuel-delivery system of choice for portable generators. Carburetors rely on mechanical parts to inject the correct ratio of fuel and air into the engine’s combustion chamber.

Electronic Fuel Injection technology is a more precise way of injecting the fuel-air ratio into the engine. Getting that ratio just right gives your portable generator engine exactly what it needs to perform its job at peak efficiency. This translates into safety and savings.

Traditional non-EFI generators experience a significant performance loss when operating at high altitudes. This makes it necessary to install replacement carburetor jets to correct the air-fuel mixture.

EFI technology allows optimal performance at all temperatures and altitudes with no modifications necessary, plus the carburetor-free design eliminates bad fuel issues and gum-ups.

This dynamic, reliable fuel-delivery system reduces dangerous carbon monoxide emissions by up to 90%, making portable generators even more safe and environmentally friendly.

Portable generators with EFI will run more efficiently, resulting in up to 25% savings on fuel.

Unlike a carburetor, EFI is completely unaffected by air temperature or elevation since it makes its own pressure with a fuel pump. This means it can inject gas into the engine any time it wants, regardless of weather, location, or air pressure.

Portable generators with EFI technology easily adapt to changes. Sensors within the EFI fuel system provide feedback to the engine so it’s constantly adjusting to provide the optimum power for the current load. When a generator powering only a coffee maker switches to powering an A/C unit, EFI technology ensures that performance and efficiency remain consistent.

Although storing fuel long-term in any kind of gas engine is not recommended, EFI does simplify storage. Since an EFI fuel system is sealed, fuel-related issues like corrosion or damaging deposits are less likely.

Whether you’re backing up home essentials during an emergency, enjoying a weekend camping trip, tailgating or powering your latest project, Champion’s Dual Fuel Technology allows you to choose the fuel source that works best for you.

A Champion Dual-Fuel generator can be operated right out of the box on gasoline or propane, and since only one fuel source is allowed to operate at a time, you can easily and safely switch between fuels.

Dual Fuel Technology was developed to allow you to choose the safest and most effective fuel option for your needs.

Gasoline is readily available and is a fuel source that is easily portable.

Propane is less expensive than gasoline, and may be easier to obtain during emergencies when gasoline is in short supply. However, propane is not as easily portable as gasoline.

Propane has a longer shelf life and remains stable in storage for longer periods than gasoline, which is helpful if your generator will be used for backup during power outages. Also, propane is considered to be eco-friendly and is a cleaner burning fuel source than gasoline.

Champion understands that different situations require different sources of fuel.

Take control of your generator, your way. Powering your life is more convenient and versatile than ever with Champion’s innovative Dual Fuel Technology.

• Control – Dual Fuel Technology puts you in control and allows you to choose either gasoline or propane to power your portable generator
• Convenience – Champion makes it easy to switch between fuel sources
• Choice – Power your generator your way by choosing the best fuel source for your needs
• Safety – Safely switch between fuels, since only one fuel source is allowed to operate at a time
• Champion Support – Dual Fuel Technology is supported as part of your Champion generator’s warranty, which includes FREE lifetime technical support from dedicated experts

Whether you’re backing up home essentials during an emergency, enjoying a weekend camping trip, tailgating or powering your latest project, Champion’s Wireless Remote Start technology makes portable power even more convenient.

Now you can start and stop your Champion compatible portable generator from up to 80 feet away with the push of a button.

Portable generators with Wireless Remote Start include a convenient remote key fob to ensure quick and easy access to your portable power.

Champion’s Wireless Remote Start technology allows up to two remote controls to be used with one generator. Generators featuring this technology come equipped with a wireless set button feature which lets the user
sync or reset remotes to the generator.

To begin using the Wireless Remote Start feature, make sure your generator is on a flat, level surface and that all electrical loads connected to the generator are turned off.

Turn the fuel valve on and enable the battery. Then, press and release the “START” button on the wireless remote key fob to start your generator.

Champion’s Wireless Remote Start technology is equipped with a safety feature which delays the electrical power availability during starting mode for approximately 15 seconds. This practical feature prevents damage to the
generator if electrical loads are accidentally left on during engine startup.

Take control of your generator, your way. Powering your life is more convenient than ever with Champion’s Wireless Remote Start technology.

• Connection – Clear directions and a pre-programmed remote put you in control quickly and easily
• Convenience – The handy remote key fob puts portable power in the palm of your hand, plus up to two remote controls may be used with one generator
• Control – Start and stop your generator from up to 80 feet away
• Safety – A 15-second delay during starting mode prevents generator damage
• Champion Support – Wireless Remote Start technology is supported as part of your Champion generator’s warranty, which includes FREE lifetime technical support from dedicated experts
