Champion 201532 published runtime

  • Gasoline: 15 hours at 25% load on 4.5 gallons
  • Propane (LP): 18 hours (load not stated) on a 20 lb propane tank

Champion's product description gives these figures. The spec table on the same page lists different ones (18 hours on gasoline and 16 hours on propane at 1/4 load), so we use the description's wording. Champion does not state a load for the 18-hour propane figure, so the calculator shows it as published but does not estimate other loads from it.

Which model this page covers

This page covers model 201532, the 6500W Dual Fuel Inverter with CO Shield. Champion sells several similarly named 6500W models with different specs; they are not mixed in.

Manufacturer figures vs. our estimates

Only the runtimes listed above are Champion's own published figures. When your load and fuel amount exactly match one of them, the calculator labels the result Manufacturer Published Runtime. Loads between published figures are labeled Estimated from Manufacturer Data, and loads outside the published range are labeled Extrapolated with a wider range. Those are GeneratorRuntime estimates, not Champion specifications.

Operate it safely

Like every portable generator, the Champion 201532 must be operated according to the manufacturer's safety instructions: outdoors only, well away from doors, windows, and vents, with battery CO alarms inside your home. A CO shutoff feature is not a substitute for safe placement. Never refuel while the engine is running or hot.
