| Summary | The DuroMax XP15000HXT is a 12,000-watt tri-fuel generator built for stationary backup power and job site work. It runs on gasoline, propane, or natural gas, giving users flexibility to match fuel availability to their location. The 670cc OHV engine delivers 15,000 peak watts on startup, enough to handle the inrush demands of air conditioners, well pumps, and heavy power tools. At 12,000 running watts, it sustains refrigerators, furnaces, and multiple circuits simultaneously. This is a home-backup or construction-grade machine, not a portable camping unit. | The Ryobi RY909500 is a 9500W Portable Gas Generator featuring a 500cc OHV engine, delivering 8000 running watts and 9500 starting watts. It offers a 7.5-hour runtime at 50% load, making it ideal for storm backup and jobsite use. |
