DuroMax XP16000iH - 13000/16000W Dual Fuel Inverter Generator With Remote Start

In short, the DuroMax XP16000iH is a powerful portable inverter generator adequately designed for:

• Professionals who want to ensure that a power failure will not prevent them from working
• Small homeowners in search of a full power backup solution

The subsequent sections will explore in detail its power characteristics, the diverse outlets it provides, its overall portability, and the supplementary features it offers.

Power & Run Time

The DuroMax XP16000iH

The DuroMax XP16000iH, equipped with dual-fuel technology and delivering 120/240V, ensures both power and versatility. Running on gasoline, it delivers a running wattage of 13,000W and a starting wattage of 16,000W. On propane, it provides 12,350 running watts and 15,200 starting watts. The impressive running wattage makes this unit one of the biggest inverter generators currently on the market. 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.

Operating at a noise rating of 67 dBA (less noisy than a normal conversation), this inverter generator starts up with a straightforward and intuitive electric starter (battery included). In addition, the XP16000iH also supports remote starting, enhancing user convenience (key fob included).

The XP16000iH, with a fuel capacity of 10.6 gallons, reaches a run time of around 10.5 hours at 50% load utilizing gasoline (fuel consumption around 1.01 GPH). Alternatively, it can reach a run time of around 3 hours (on a 20 lbs tank - propane consumption around 1.57 GPH) with propane.

Delicate electronics can be plugged in the AC outlets safely, as the XP16000iH generates a clean sine wave, reaching a <3% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD).

Outlets

The control panel is equipped with the following 6 AC outlets:

The unit features an ATS plug, which makes it compatible with automatic transfer switches.

Portability

Since the DuroMax XP16000iH is an inverter generator, its closed design (L38.3 x W30.8 x H34.4 in) not only provides an aesthetic advantage but also contributes to reduced noise levels compared to conventional, open frame devices. This type of design is the most modern and convenient way to recreationally generate power.

Though weighing 368 lbs, the generator remains classified as 'portable,' indicating its capability to be moved, though its weight could pose transport challenges. Despite the restricted maneuverability, its set of 4 wheels (⌀7") and its folding handle provides a solution, allowing for convenient shifting once the generator is positioned on the ground.

Features

The XP16000iH's control panel

A digital data center, one of the features of the XP16000iH's control panel, gives you information on the frequency, voltage, lifetime run hours and power output, and thus, is helpful for the monitoring of its activity and status.

In addition to this info, several light indicators serve to show you when the generator is on overload, its oil levels are insufficient and the generator is ready.

The inclusion of a built-in fuel gauge in the inverter generator streamlines gas level checks for quick and convenient assessments.

Considering security aspects, the generator boasts an overload protection (circuit breaker) and an automatic low oil shut-off, offering peace of mind throughout operation.

The XP16000iH 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.

Alongside the standard documentation and an owner's manual (opens in a new tab) for quick setup, the DuroMax XP16000iH is bundled with additional accessories: tool kit, key fob, propane hose, funnel and battery charger. An official running cover is also available, as a separate purchase.
