Is it only for short time period or can it run for 5-10 hours in a row?

Should work for days if necessary. Have only needed it for a couple of hours so far.

It will run for as long as you have fuel & the oil level is maintained & fuel pressure is up ! You don't have to pay$450.00 for Kohler start-up but Warranty will begin on day of purchase instead of day of installation if you don't get Kohler to do install & start up ! If I had to do it over again I would purchase from Amazon & get Kohler to take it over from time of delivery !

We have used it for approximately 6 hours straight but thankfully, haven't been without power longer than that. :) Of course, it also depends on the amount of propane you have on hand. Hope this helps ...

It can run for a long time. If you are using it as a backup generator and your power is out for days - no problem. It could also be used for power if you are totally off the grid. Think cabin in the woods. We have a large propane tank for heating the house. Our generator is hooked up to it for its' fuel supply. Makes running the generator when power is out easy.

You can choose the length of time and the instruction book is helpful. I set mine to run 7 minutes once a day starting at 1 pm.

Timer goes for an hour you just have to reset it. Should not bother it at all to run it three hours. It will only get so hot

Yes, if it sits for extended periods let it run for 15-20 seconds. Works great.

No. You can set it to start immediately, and only run for X hours, after that it changes to a warm setting. I love it!

It says that it goes for 30 minutes... But that is if you run it non stop. I can run it for up to 90 minutes, turning it off in between areas.

If you're using it once for a long time than Yes it will give you 30 odd minutes run time, but generally I use it for max 5 to 10 min at a time so the charge last for at least 3 to 4 times of use.

Is can run for a period of time. However, I had mine on comfort mode for a month and stopped working.

yes, no problem. It has small blocks, each reprensent a 30 minute period, so if you want 2 hours, just leave 4 consecutive blocks down and it will be on for just 2 hours. Personally I have a fan connected and it's set to run for 1 hour then stop for 30 minutes then 1 hour and stop for 30 mins, etc.

When you press the power button only it will run continuously for about 7 hours. There is a 2nd button which sets it to run for 10 minutes then off for 20 minutes, this will continue for about 21 hours.

The unit could be set to run as you describe. It has the capability of running 3 times daily on each outlet. Also, you can set for every other day operation as you describe say 36 hours. Downside is that if you set for every other day operation, that controls both outlets. Hope this helps.

It can be set for more than 3 hours. I just went up to 12 hours to see if it has a maximum but I don't think it does.

I think you can keep it going for 24 hours--you set the number of hours you want when you start it up. I don't see why you couldn't do 24--
