DuroMax XP16000iHT - 13000/16000W Tri Fuel Inverter Generator With Remote Start

In short, the DuroMax XP16000iHT is a powerful portable inverter generator adequately designed for:

• Professionals in need of safely powering high-intensity work or lighting equipment
• Homeowners in need of an emergency backup power for their essentials

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 XP16000iHT

The DuroMax XP16000iHT delivers 120/240V and is equipped with a tri-fuel technology, enabling it to operate on gasoline, propane, or natural gas. When powered by gasoline, it achieves a running wattage of 13,000W and a peak wattage of 16,000W. Switching to propane provides 12,350 rated watts and 15,200 peak watts, while natural gas operation delivers 11,200W of rated wattage and 13,800W of starting wattage. The impressive running wattage makes this unit one of the biggest inverter generators currently on the market. Additionally, the parallel capability (parallel kit not included) facilitates increasing of power output when linked to another similar or compatible unit, offering enhanced energy capacity and reliability for diverse requirements.

At a noise rating of 67 dBA (less noisy than background music), the inverter generator is started via a practical and straightforward electric starter (battery included). Furthermore, for added convenience, the XP16000iHT offers remote starting capabilities (key fob included).

In terms of its run time capability, the XP16000iHT, furnished with a 10.6 gallons fuel tank, can maintain operations for around 10.5 hours at 50% load on a full tank of gasoline (with fuel consumption averaging 1.01 gallons per hour). It also provides around 3 hours (on a 20 lbs tank - propane consumption around 1.57 GPH) of operation with propane.

The XP16000iHT ensures a clean sine wave output, boasting <5% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) to protect your sensitive electronics when connected to its AC outlets.

Outlets

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

Portability

As the DuroMax XP16000iHT is an inverter generator, its encased design (L38.3 x W30.8 x H34.4 in) offers more aesthetics than a conventional, open frame product. This modern design aims to provide an ideal power solution to recreational users.

Despite its weight of 368 lbs, the generator is still considered 'portable,' meaning it is movable, although its heftiness may restrict portability in certain environments or require additional considerations for transportation and setup. However, the limited maneuverability is remedied with its set of 4 wheels and its folding handle, facilitating convenient shifting once the generator is positioned on the ground.

Features

The XP16000iHT's control panel

For easy status and activity monitoring of the XP16000iHT, its control panel integrates a digital data center, offering insights into the voltage, power output, frequency and lifetime run hours.

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

The built-in fuel gauge of the inverter generator ensures simple and quick gas level assessments.

In terms of security, the generator features an overload protection (circuit breaker) and an automatic low oil shut-off, ensuring peace of mind during its use.

The XP16000iHT 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.

Along the basic documentation and an owner's manual (opens in a new tab), useful for starting the generator right away, the DuroMax XP16000iHT's package also includes these accessories: tool kit, battery charger, funnel, oil, key fob, natural gas hose with NPT adapter and propane hose. An official running cover is also available, as a separate purchase.
