You've got a handy 8,000 watts of continuous source power from the moment you push the start button on the DuroMax XP10000E. This is great, because it means you won't have to run around the house, turning large appliances like the fridge, water heater, and so on - off.

Engine Details
You would expect a machine of this spec to resemble the shape and size of a monster - but thankfully the DuroMax XP10000E is far from that. It's got wheels and a handy handle system - making maneuvering a breeze.
Under the covers is an 8.3 gallon gas tank, which supplies the 16 horsepower engine with its grunt. This engine is CARB compliant, meaning that consumers from California can indeed buy the product - as can the environmentally conscious.
As for noise - you'll hardly hear a sound, with the built in noise reduction technology coming as standard. More about this below.
Onboard Technology
There's something even more important than being able to show off to your neighbors during a power cut - and that is, having ultimate control over who can use your home generator. After all, there's not much use in owning one if you arrive home to find that you trusty neighbor has "borrowed it".
With the DuroMax XP10000E starter system innovation - only you will hold the key to the power - literally. This product is one of the few on the market with an electronic / key starter system - with a battery built in for this reason.
Finally, low oil shut off comes standard - and avoids a yard full of scrap metal if and when the oil level runs low.
