As the DuroMax XP10000E and the Generac XG10000E do not share the same manufacturer, their overall build and technology in use can vary.

Power Comparison

The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the Generac XG10000E compare to the DuroMax XP10000E.

  • Power: With a running wattage of 10,000 W, the Generac XG10000E will allow to power more appliances and tools than the 8,000 running watts of the DuroMax XP10000E. Moreover, compared to the 10,000 starting watts of the DuroMax XP10000E, the Generac XG10000E and its starting wattage of 12,500 W will give more power to start the appliances which require an additional boost to get their motor running.
  • Runtime: At a 50% load, these 2 portable generators benefit from the same approximate runtime on a full tank. Therefore, regardless of the model, you'll be able to enjoy power availability for around 10 hours.
  • Fuel Efficiency: With a gasoline consumption at 50% load of 1 GPH (gallon per hour), the Generac XG10000E is less fuel efficient than the DuroMax XP10000E with its 0.83 GPH. The latter will therefore be more economic to run than the former.
  • THD: The Generac XG10000E with its low THD (<5%) is the only of these 2 generators that allows you to safely power your sensitive electronic devices (the DuroMax XP10000E has a THD <12%, which is too high for electronic products).

Portability Comparison

  • Bulkiness: With dimensions of L29" x W30" x H26", the DuroMax XP10000E offers a much more compact experience of power generation than the Generac XG10000E and its L31.2" x W29.5" x H31.3".
  • Weight: Weighing 218 lbs, the XP10000E is much lighter than the 300 lbs of the XG10000E.
  • Portability: Both products benefit from a wheel kit, which greatly enhances their maneuverability. Both offer a folding handle, which improves your grip when you wish to move them around.

Feature Comparison

  • Starting System: While you can get both devices running via a convenient electric starter, the DuroMax XP10000E is the only one which benefits from an additional conventional pull-start mechanism.
  • Outlets: The Generac XG10000E offers a higher amount of AC receptacles than the DuroMax XP10000E: the former benefits from 7 AC outlets, whereas the latter has 5 AC outlets. Yet, they both feature GFCI outlets. The latter also offers a DC output. In addition, it is worth noting that they can both produce either 120 or 240V. For more detailed information regarding all their respective receptacles, refer to the Generac XG10000E's and the DuroMax XP10000E's product pages.
  • Data Center & Fuel Gauge: Each of these 2 portable generators is equipped with a data center allowing you to conveniently monitor some aspects of the power output. Besides that, these 2 products are fitted with a fuel gauge allowing to see their fuel level at a glance.
