Since I don't know what a Magnum is, can't really offer much more. If you have one that you have to prime a bulb, set the choke, then crank (hopefully start) then take the choke off manually, I'd believe auto start would be tricky. Still, people buy "portable" generators for home backup use and I imagine some start automatically.
