As the Westinghouse WGen9500DF and the DuroMax XP12000EH 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 DuroMax XP12000EH compare to the Westinghouse WGen9500DF.

• Fuel: The 2 portable generators enjoy a dual-fuel technology, which allows them to run either on gasoline or propane, providing additional versatility and convenience.
• Power: As both the DuroMax XP12000EH and the Westinghouse WGen9500DF share the same running wattage of 9,500W, they will both allow you to simultaneously power the same appliances. However, compared to the 12,000 starting watts of the DuroMax XP12000EH, the Westinghouse WGen9500DF 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: When loaded to 25% of their max capacity, the DuroMax XP12000EH offers a higher runtime on a full tank than the Westinghouse WGen9500DF: it can operate for up to 19 hours, whereas the Westinghouse WGen9500DF offers a maximum runtime of 12 hours.
• Fuel Efficiency: With a gasoline consumption at 25% load of 0.44 GPH (gallon per hour), the DuroMax XP12000EH is more fuel efficient than the Westinghouse WGen9500DF and its 0.55 GPH. The former's operation will therefore cost less in terms of the money spent on gasoline.
• THD: Neither the DuroMax XP12000EH nor the Westinghouse WGen9500DF has a THD low enough to allow you to safely power your sensitive electronic devices (respectively <12% and <23%).
• Noise: Both devices have a noise rating (lower limit) of 74 dBA. If noise is important to you, neither of them will be easier on your ears.

Portability Comparison

• Bulkiness: When compared, the Westinghouse WGen9500DF and its dimensions of L27.2" x W26.1" x H26.5" offer a slightly more compact experience than the L29" x W30" x H26" of the DuroMax XP12000EH.
• Weight: With a weight of 211 lbs, the WGen9500DF is slightly less heavy than the XP12000EH (which weighs 224 lbs).
• 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: Both devices can be started either via a pull-start mechanism or an electric starter. The Westinghouse WGen9500DF offers another layer of convenience, as it can be remotely started.
• Outlets: With a total of 6 AC outlets, the Westinghouse WGen9500DF offers more AC receptacles than the DuroMax XP12000EH, which 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 DuroMax XP12000EH's and the Westinghouse WGen9500DF'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.
