4,700 Watts of Dual Fuel Inverter Power — Clean Enough for Electronics, Ready When the Grid Isn’t

The BE Power Equipment BE4700ID is a dual fuel generator that runs on gasoline or propane and delivers 4,700 starting watts of clean inverter power. As a portable generator it stays quiet and refined enough to charge phones, laptops, and other sensitive electronics, yet it carries enough load to keep a fridge, lights, and a few tools running when the power drops. Push-button electric start, a lithium-ion battery, and a telescopic handle make it as easy to live with as it is to move.

It’s built for people who want backup power without the bulk of an open-frame unit: homeowners riding out a storm outage, tailgaters and campers who need clean quiet power, and tradesmen who want a light second generator on the truck. Switch to propane for cleaner, long shelf-life fuel that starts easily in the cold, or run gasoline when you want the full 4,700 starting watts — the choice is yours every time you fire it up.

Key Features

  • 4,700 starting / 3,800 running watts on gasoline (4,000 / 3,500 on propane) — — dual-fuel output that covers a fridge, lights, and a few power tools, or feeds clean power to sensitive electronics.
  • True dual-fuel design (gasoline or propane) — — run 86-octane gas for maximum output or propane for clean fuel that stores for years and starts in the cold.
  • Pure inverter power at max 3% total harmonic distortion — — safe, stable voltage for laptops, phones, and control boards that an open-frame generator can damage.
  • Powerease 160cc OHV engine with electric and recoil start — — push-button starting backed by a recoil pull, plus automatic low-oil shutdown that guards the engine.
  • Automatic CO detector — — shuts the unit down before carbon-monoxide levels turn dangerous, an added safety layer near enclosed spaces.
  • Lithium-ion battery, LED floodlight, and Sub-Zero cold-start — — onboard extras that keep it starting and working when conditions turn against you.
  • Enclosed sound-dampening shell rated 63 dB at 7 m — — quiet enough for a campsite or a residential job without shouting over it.
  • Telescopic handle and wheels on a 58 lb frame — — one person rolls it off the truck and repositions it, no second set of hands needed.

Power and Setup Requirements

✔︎  Add up the running watts of what you plan to power, then leave headroom for start-up surge — this unit covers 3,800 running / 4,700 starting on gas (3,500 / 4,000 on propane).
✔︎  Choose your fuel: keep fresh 86-octane gasoline (up to 10% ethanol) for maximum output, or a standard propane tank for clean, long-storage backup.
✔︎  This is a 120V model — there is no 240V outlet; power your loads from the two GFCI 20A duplex receptacles or the 30A twist-lock (NEMA L5-30R).
✔︎  Run outdoors only, well away from windows and doors — the built-in CO detector adds protection but never replaces proper ventilation.
✔︎  Compact and light at 58 lbs (69 lbs boxed) — easy for one person to lift and load without a pallet or liftgate.

Built like a tank

It handles my F-250 like it's nothing. 12,000 lb capacity gives me confidence with the heavy trucks. Best investment I've made for my garage.

Easiest garage upgrade I've ever done

These tiles just snap together, no glue, no tools, no prep. Whole two-car garage done in one afternoon. Cleans up with just a hose.

Worth every penny

Bought the MEC10 to dig trenches on my property. Compact enough to fit through my gate but digs almost 66 inches. Saved me thousands vs. hiring out.
