Can Two Propane Tanks be Connected to Firman 10,000 Watt Generator H08051
Question:
Can two 20 lb LP tanks be connected to this generator? Id like to know if two 20 lb LP tanks can be connected using an automatic switch over valve and if so what hardware would be required.

That is a good question so I contacted the manufacturer, Firman, who told me that the Firman 10,000-Watt Portable Generator # 333-H08051 must use the regulator provided with the generator. What that means is you are unable to use two propane tanks because two tanks would require the use of a different regulator with an automatic changeover, like you asked about.
Even without being able to use two propane tanks, the Firman # 333-H08051 is the most powerful, longest-lasting generator that can be powered with propane and is a great option because it can power so many different appliances at once. I have added a link to the instructions for you to check out as well.
