DuroStar DS14000iX 11000W Electric Start Dual Fuel Portable Inverter Generator w/CO Alert Features:
DuroStar DS14000iX 14,000-Watt Dual Fuel Portable Inverter Generator
The DuroStar DS14000iX Dual Fuel Portable Inverter Generator delivers high-output portable power with the cleaner, more stable electricity of inverter technology. Producing up to 14,000 starting watts and 11,000 running watts on gasoline, the DS14000iX is designed for home backup, jobsite power, RV use, and other applications where substantial portable power is needed. Unlike a permanently installed standby generator, it gives owners the flexibility to move the generator where power is needed while still providing 120/240V output for demanding electrical loads.
DuroMax's Dual Fuel technology allows the DS14000iX to operate on either gasoline or propane. On gasoline, it produces 14,000 peak watts and 11,000 running watts; on propane, it delivers 13,500 peak watts and 10,500 running watts. This fuel flexibility can be especially valuable during extended power outages, allowing you to use whichever fuel source is more readily available. A front-facing fuel inlet and quick-connect inlet also help simplify setup and fuel connections.
At the heart of the DS14000iX is a powerful 550cc OHV engine paired with inverter technology and a fully loaded power panel. The generator provides 120/240V output and 45.83 amps, giving it the capacity needed for a wide variety of household appliances, tools, equipment, and other electrical loads. A Digital Control Center makes important operating information easy to see, while both push-button and remote starting provide convenient ways to start the generator.
For longer outages and extended use, the DS14000iX is rated for up to 12.5 hours of runtime on gasoline at 50% load and approximately 12 hours on propane at 50% load using a 60 lb propane tank. DuroMax also equips the generator with CO Alert Technology, which adds protection against dangerous carbon monoxide buildup. All-metal construction, a large fuel tank, battery tender, remote start, and a portable wheeled design round out a generator built for serious backup power applications.
