[RE-wrenches] Generator recommendation request

[Sindelar Solar]

Wrenches,
Generators have become a moving target, especially for off grid 
applications. Most are set up for grid backup, and I'm assuming that 
many may simply be unavailable, given that half of most everything else 
is on back-order with no expected delivery date... I'm seldom asked to 
recommend a generator these days, but I am today, so I'm requesting 
recommendations from other off grid-savvy Wrenches, please.

I'm working with an older (2014?) existing dual Outback VFX3524 system 
which will be upgraded to dual VFXR-3648s to work with a 16kW Blue Ion 
LiFP battery bank; 4kW array with upgrade infrastructure in place to 
later add 2kW more if needed. Once the upgrade is done I expect 
relatively little generator runtime. The customer would prefer LP fuel 
and 2-wire start (for remote control). Pretty much any well-regarded 
model in the 8-14 kW @240 VAC rating range could work.

Thank you for your suggestions!
Allan
