DuroMax XP13000HX Overview
The DuroMax XP13000HX is a portable dual fuel generator that runs on gasoline or propane and includes CO sensor shutdown. On gasoline it is rated at 13,000 starting watts and 10,500 running watts, enough for loads that range from lights and a refrigerator to a home air conditioner and high-amperage power tools.
A 500cc OHV engine provides the power, and it starts with a push button, with a recoil start as backup. A front fuel switch selects gasoline or propane, or lets you run the carburetor dry before storage. A wheel and handle kit and a propane hose with regulator are included. Runtime on gasoline is 17 hours at 25% load and 8.5 hours at 50% load, and it drops to 13 and 6.5 hours on propane. The engine takes 10W-30 oil, with a 40.5 fluid ounce capacity, and the unit measures 74 dB, so it is a large machine meant for serious loads.
Key Features
- 13,000 peak and 10,500 running watts on gasoline; 12,500 and 10,000 on propane
- Idle control that lowers engine speed when no load is connected, saving fuel and reducing noise on intermittent job sites
- Low oil shutoff that stops the engine automatically when oil runs low
- Power panel with a 120V 30A twist-lock outlet, a 240V 30A outlet and a 240V 50A outlet, plus a voltmeter and 12V DC charging posts
- Front-mounted fuel switch for gasoline, propane or carburetor run-out
- Rated for RV and home backup use, with a 5 year warranty listed in the specifications
- Digital voltmeter, hour meter and battery switch on the panel, plus an 8.3-gallon gasoline tank with a fuel gauge
Who It’s For
A fit for homeowners who want whole-house backup capacity and for contractors who need high-amperage tools running. The dual fuel design suits people who want the choice of gasoline or propane.
