In the forthcoming sections, you'll delve into its power characteristics, the various outlets it offers, its overall portability, and the additional features it boasts.

Power & Run Time

The Firman H05751 in use

The Firman H05751

Featuring dual-fuel technology, the Firman H05751 provides 120/240V, and offers both power and versatility. Running on gasoline, it delivers a running wattage of 5,700W and a starting wattage of 7,125W. When propane-powered, it offers 5,700 running watts and 7,125 starting watts.

With a noise rating of 74 dBA (just slightly more noisy than a dishwasher), the generator features a classic hand-operated recoil starting mechanism, but also a convenient and easy-to-use electric starter (battery included).

The running time of the H05751, with its 8 gallons fuel capacity, can reach around 12 hours at 50% load on a full tank of gasoline (fuel consumption around 0.67 GPH). With propane, it can reach around 5 hours (estimation based on a 20 lbs tank - propane consumption around 0.94 GPH).

As the H05751 has a high THD (<25%), it is not recommended to use it to power sensitive electronic devices.

Outlets

The control panel features the upcoming 6 AC outlets:

Two Duplexes 120V 20A (5-20R) GFCI
120V 30A (L5-30R) receptacle
120/240V 30A (L14-30R) receptacle

Despite not meeting the 'RV Ready' criteria, this Firman generator grants the advantage of simple RV compatibility via its L5-30R receptacle, enabling you to conveniently power your RV by using an L5-30P to TT-30R adaptor. Besides, since it boasts a twist-lock L14-30R receptacle, the H05751 is engineered to be transfer switch ready, ensuring easy integration with your breaker box to provide backup power to your home during outages.

Portability

With dimensions of L30.2 x W27.5 x H26.3 in, the standard open frame design of the Firman H05751 provides stability and easy maintenance access to components, as well as good air circulation. The device has been designed for tough environments and demanding outdoor use.

While the generator is considered to be technically 'portable' (in the sense that you can move it), manually lifting and transporting it may be challenging, due to its high weight of 194.5 lbs. Nevertheless, it can still be moved quite conveniently with the help of its wheel kit (⌀10") and its folding handle, once it is placed on the ground.

Features

The H05751's control panel

The control panel of the H05751 includes a convenient meter showing you voltage, frequency and lifetime hours, helpful for the monitoring of its status and activity.

The generator allows for a quick, easy and convenient assessment of its gas level, as it is equipped with a built-in fuel gauge.

From a security standpoint, the product offers an automatic low oil shut-off and an overload protection (circuit breaker), allowing you to use it with a peace of mind.

Beyond the standard documentation and an owner's manual (opens in a new tab) to assist with setup, the Firman H05751 ships with supplementary accessories: tool kit, oil, propane hose and funnel.

The Firman H05751 versus other generators

The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how some of the key specs of the Firman H05751 compare to dual fuel generators of similar power (between 5500 and 6500 W).

  • Considering its dry weight of 194.5 pounds, the Firman H05751 is one of the heavier dual fuel generators producing between 5500 and 6500 running watts. If you are concerned by weight, one of the champions in the above-mentioned power range is the Pulsar PGDA70BiSCO, with a dry weight of just 118 pounds.
  • The generator's noise output, rated at 74 dBA, falls within the average range expected for devices in its type and power range. If noise emissions are important to you, one of the least noisy generators of this power range is the DuroMax XP7000iH with only 62 dBA.
  • With around 12 hours of runtime at 50% load, the H05751 provides a one of the highest run times when compared to similarly powerful dual fuel products.
  • Run time is crucial, but it heavily relies on the fuel tank's capacity. Thus, considering fuel efficiency alongside is essential. This generator doesn't excel in fuel efficiency when compared to others of its kind: it consumes approximately 0.67 GPH at a 50% load. If not satisfied with the afore-mentioned fuel consumption, you may wish to check out the DuroMax XP7000iH. With a fuel consumption of as little as 0.38 GPH, it is one of the most efficient generators currently on the market.

Unlike many websites, we did our best to research each of the specs above. That being said, we are not immune to making the occasional mistake or omission. Should you notice any missing or incorrect values, don't hesitate to suggest improvements so we can address the issue.
* Propane runtime is our own estimation, based on a 20 lbs tank and NIST 1994 GGE (Gasoline Gallon Equivalent) formula: 5.66 lbs of propane = 1 gal of gasoline.
