I just ordered yesterday a Champion 3400 watt inverter with remote start. I had a dual fuel connection added for $145 and a hour meter installed for free. You can't get the dual fuel option with the remote start without doing it this way. I'm hoping That the propane runs my 13500 A/C if it does I don't think I'll ever use the gasoline feature, as we have a great solar system that runs everything else. And propane so much easier and cleaner. This cost me a little over $1200 I'll have here next week I'll let you know

So I got it today, it's out back now running for the 5 hour break in period, Having had recent back surgery I love the handle and the wheels. I'm going to make two 2x6 boards with a lip on each side and I'll be able to roll in and out of the truck. It's very quiet even when on high load, not much different then my son's honda 2000. I still could run in parelel if I chose to, but I don't think I will ever need to. So I'm running on propane now. But during 5 hour break in I have to change loads from o to 1/2 of the out put. And then I'll change the oil and tomorrow I'll start running with a full bottle under load from My 13500 A/C for two hours and then I'll go top off the 5 gallon propane and post how much fuel it used. So far I love it. The wife started it with the remote. she was inside the house and it was on the patio it fired right up, and you could not here it through our sliding glass door 3' away.
