Supposed to get the DuroPower 3500 ES tomorrow. I'm going to break it in and make sure all is OK, then probably will add the remote start next. I scored a car remote starter kit on Ebay super cheap and plan to adapt it to the gennie. One snag I hit was that the remote starter does not allow for "infinite runtime". It is only programmable for 4, 15, or 45 minute runs and then it shuts the ignition down. I have designed a circuit that when the remote turns the ignition "on", it passively turns "on" another bypass ignition circuit so when the remote cuts out after the programmed time, the engine will continue to run. The circuit then can be triggered "off" using a negative pulse from the car door lock or unlock button on the remote. I think this circuit will work - plan to build up the relays and bench test it and if successful, install it on the gennie. Here's the circuit:
