| Summary | The DuroMax XP12000E is a gasoline-powered generator with a rated wattage of 9500 watts and a peak wattage of 12000 watts. It features a recoil and electric starting system and is compliant with CARB and EPA standards. | The Honda EB6500X is a 5500-watt gasoline generator built for job sites and extended outages. Its 6500-watt peak output handles large equipment startups, while a 6.2-gallon tank delivers 9.8 hours of runtime at half load. The recoil start and included wheel kit make it mobile, though at 215.8 lbs it requires planning for transport. |
