Our take
The best thing about the WEN 55201 Magnetic Oil Dipstick is a magnetic tip on an M18 x 2.5 thread. No buyer reviews yet, so the WEN 55201 Magnetic Oil Dipstick has to win you over on paper. The catch with this WEN oil dipstick: no word on the exact fit. We'd pick the WEN if you just bought a new generator; otherwise, put it next to the Alpha Rider GE-192 Magnetic Dipstick first.
