Description

Zoom on the DuroMax XP11000iH

To sum up, the DuroMax XP11000iH is a powerful portable inverter generator tailored for:

  • Prudent homeowners who want a full backup power source in case of a power outage
  • Professionals who want to ensure that a power failure will not prevent them from working
  • Homeowners in need of an emergency backup power for their essentials
  • RV travellers who wish to upgrade their experience to another level

In the forthcoming sections, you'll delve into its power characteristics, the various outlets it offers, its overall portability, and the additional features it boasts.

Power & Run Time

The DuroMax XP11000iH in use

The DuroMax XP11000iH

Thanks to its dual-fuel technology, the DuroMax XP11000iH delivers 120/240V and offers power and versatility. When gasoline-powered, it benefits from a running wattage of 9,000W and a peak wattage of 11,000W. When propane-powered, it has 8,550 rated watts and 10,450 peak watts. Furthermore, its parallel capability (parallel kit not included) allows power output to increase when connected to another similar or compatible unit, ensuring expanded energy capacity and reliability for various applications.

DuroMax’s Switch On Demand technology allows you to switch from propane to gasoline or from gasoline to propane while the generator is running.

With a noise rating of 61 dBA (just slightly more noisy than background music), the inverter generator features a manual recoil starter system, but also a simple and elegant electric starter (battery included). Additionally, the XP11000iH features remote starting, offering users increased convenience (key fob included).

Regarding its running time, the XP11000iH, with a 7.1 gallons fuel capacity, can operate for up to 18 hours with a full tank of gasoline (fuel consumption around 0.39 GPH). When using propane, it can run for up to 8 hours (on a 20 lbs tank - propane consumption around 0.59 GPH).

The XP11000iH ensures a clean sine wave output, boasting <3% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) to protect your sensitive electronics when connected to its AC outlets.

Outlets

The control panel features the upcoming 6 AC outlets:

Two Duplexes 120V 20A (5-20R) GFCI
120/240V 30A (L14-30R) receptacle
120/240V 50A (14-50R) receptacle

In addition, it provides 1 DC outlet: there's a 48-58V 10A output to charge your home backup Li-ion batteries.

For RV owners with a 50-amp service, this DuroMax unit is RV-ready, boasting a 14-50R outlet. In addition, equipped with a twist-lock L14-30R receptacle, the XP11000iH is engineered to be transfer switch ready, enabling simple hookup to your breaker box to provide backup power for your home during blackouts.

Portability

Since the DuroMax XP11000iH is an inverter generator, its closed design (L26.2 x W25 x H29.6 in) not only provides an aesthetic advantage but also contributes to reduced noise levels compared to conventional, open frame devices. The generator has a contemporary design, convenient for recreationally generating power.

Despite its 216 lbs, the generator falls under the category of 'portable,' signifying its movability, although its weight may hinder easy portability. However, the lack of maneuverability can be offset with its set of wheels (⌀8.5") and its folding handle, which allows for convenient shifting once the generator is placed on the ground.

Features

The XP11000iH's control panel

Monitoring of the XP11000iH's status and activity is made possible by a digital data center, which provides information on the voltage, lifetime run hours, frequency and power output and is one of the features of its control panel.

In addition to this info, the generator's light indicators provide visual feedback when the generator is on overload, its oil levels are insufficient and the generator is ready.

With its built-in fuel gauge, the inverter generator provides quick and convenient gas level checks.

Regarding security, the generator comes with an overload protection (circuit breaker) and an automatic low oil shut-off, providing peace of mind during operation.

The XP11000iH also benefits from DuroMax’s CO Alert carbon monoxide shutdown. If CO levels become unsafe or rapidly increase, the generator will automatically shut down, an indicator will light red, and the engine will not restart for 5 minutes.

Apart from the typical documentation and an owner's manual (opens in a new tab), which lets you start it right away, the DuroMax XP11000iH also is packed along with the following accessories: battery charging cables, key fob, tool kit, funnel, propane hose and battery charger. An official running cover is also available, as a separate purchase.

The DuroMax XP11000iH versus other generators

The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how some of the key specs of the DuroMax XP11000iH compare to generators of similar power (between 8500 and 9500 W).

  • As its weight is 216 pounds, the DuroMax XP11000iH falls in the expected weight range of the devices in the 8500-9500 rated wattage category. If weight matters to you, one of the champions in this power range is the Westinghouse iGen11000DFc with only 187.4 pounds.
  • With a lowest possible noise of 61 dBA, this inverter generator places itself amongst the most quiet of the products delivering similar power.
  • Among its devices with similar power, the XP11000iH offers one of the higher run times, running for up to 18 hours at 25% load. If you consider autonomy on a single full tank as one of the deciding factors, one of the generators in the same power range that offers the highest run time is the Westinghouse iGen11000TFc, with up to 19 hours.
  • Even though run times are undoubtedly important, they are dependent on the fuel capacity to a large extent. For a more wholesome picture, we must take into consideration the fuel consumption of the generator. This inverter generator has one of the best fuel efficiency when compared to other units in the aforementioned output range, consuming approximately 0.39 GPH (gallon per hour) at 25% load.
According to our stats, the following comparison is pretty popular: DuroMax XP11000iH vs Westinghouse iGen11000DFc.

Price comparison

As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other 8500-9500W dual fuel inverter generators, the DuroMax XP11000iH is on the expensive side of the price range.

While certainly not the cheapest of its kind, purchasing it would most likely also mean enjoying the reliability of a high-end product.
