Power Outages are no longer an issue!
on December 14, 2025
Posted by: Bill
from South Georgia
I went through two hurricanes a few years ago here in the Southeast with no power backup. One was a week long and the second was ten days long without power. Lost thousands in multiple deep freezer food losses and we were miserable. I priced a home generator installation and crunched the numbers. I determined DuroMax was the way to go. A close friend bought a DuroMax 15K dual fuel Genset a few years ago and he loves it. I purchased this 16K DuroMax Dual Fuel Inverter Genset and installed it myself with just a little bit of effort. I got the inverter model because of all my sensitive electronics and appliances that have digital printed circuit boards. I have mine on the LP Gas option. We fire this baby up once every month or so as suggested to keep it at ready for any loss of power. Now I don't think twice or worry about any type of power outages. I built a nice permanent shelter on a concrete pad just outside of the home near my LP gas tank. Installed two 50amp inputs for complete whole house balanced power. This generator is a beast. The engine runs flawlessly and seems to be very good quality. All outputs were tested and spot on. My neighbors are very impressed with the quality of and price point of the DuroMax generators.

It's a beast!

I live in an area where the power goes out all the time. My electrician advised me to purchase the most powerful generator I could afford. I decided to go with the 16000 watt dual fuel inverter. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. This generator is well built, very sturdy, and easy to maintain. Changing the oil is very easy making it worry free to keep my generator ready for action. This generator is heavy, so it would be best to put it in a large generator shed and use a 50 amp plug to connect to your home during an outage. Running this generator is very straight forward and it's fairly quiet. I love the remote start, but it'd be great to have an onboard light above the control panel to make it easy to operate this unit when it's dark outside. I added a rechargeable strip light above the control panel for this purpose. We had a power outage recently where we had to use this unit. It started right up and easily connected to house through the 50 amp port. We could run everything in our house including the central AC (on a soft start) with NO problems. I love this unit. Well worth the price.

My first REAL generator
on November 24, 2025
Posted by: JT
from Northern California
I have owned multiple generators rated at up to 9000W. This 160000W is just silly powerful, when I plug in a tesla portable charger you can barely hear the RPM come up. The display is high quality compared to my past units from other brands and it doesnt rattle in the slightest. My last unit from Firman was so loud. This quiet (and expensive) model is actually worth it. You can talk while standing next to it under load. Impressed.

So far, so good!

I bought this beast a couple of years ago because I live in hurricane prone Florida. Came quickly on a LTL freight carrier, no problems. I fortunately haven't had to use it for extended power outages, but all the features seem to work - this thing should power the whole house via a transfer switch, including the whole house air conditioner. It's big and heavy, but the quality handles and wheels make it manageable. Hopefully, the true test will never come, when it does, I'll post another review.

Great Generator!
on October 3, 2025

The generator came in excellent condition. It came with a step-by-step instruction manual that was easy to follow, including a reminder to register the generator with the company. It included two remote controls to turn on the generator, which comes in handy for both safety purposes and peace of mind.
