As the XP15000EH and the XP15000E are both DuroMax generators, they benefit from the same level of quality and attention to detail.
Power Comparison
The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the DuroMax XP15000EH compare to the DuroMax XP15000E.
- Fuel: The DuroMax XP15000EH is a dual fuel generator. Thus, it has the advantage of being able to run either on gasoline or propane, whereas the other generator only runs on gasoline.
- Power: As both the DuroMax XP15000EH and the DuroMax XP15000E share the same running wattage of 12,000W, they will both allow you to simultaneously power the same appliances. In addition, as the 2 generators have the same starting watts (15,000 W), they will both give you the same boost needed to start the motor of your most demanding appliances.
- Runtime: At a 25% load, these 2 portable generators offer the same runtime on a full tank. Each of them will be able to deliver power for up to 18 hours.
- Fuel Efficiency: At the same load as mentioned above (i.e. 25%), both generators will approximately burn 0.59 gallon of gasoline per hour.
- THD: Neither the DuroMax XP15000EH nor the DuroMax XP15000E has a THD low enough to allow you to safely power your sensitive electronic devices (both <12%).
- Noise: Both devices have a noise rating (lower limit) of 83 dBA. If noise is important to you, neither of them will be easier on your ears.
Portability Comparison
- Bulkiness: As these two products share the same overall bulk, neither of them will really take up less storage space.
- Weight: Considering that both devices weigh 380 lbs, neither of them will require more effort to be manually lifted and transported.
- 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.
- Lifting Hook: These 2 generators enjoy a lifting hook on the top of their frame. This lift hook offers an additional safety feature while facilitating their transport, loading and unloading.
Feature Comparison
- Starting System: These two devices offer the same starting convenience, as they can be both easily started with an electric starter.
- Outlets: The XP15000EH and the XP15000E both offer 7 AC outlets. They also both feature GFCI outlets. 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 XP15000EH's and the XP15000E'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.

This is very helpful! question: can the EH model be converted to natural gas? My brother-in-law wants to buy one and so do I. Does the EH model have a pull start rope?
The XP15000EH is designed to run on gasoline or propane only. NG conversion could be possible, but would most likely void your warranty, and could put you in violation of your local emission laws. Neither the XP15000EH nor the XP15000E has a recoil backup. They’re both electric start only.
