The DuroStar DS8000iX is an 8,000-watt dual fuel inverter generator built to keep your home running when the power goes out. Running on gasoline or propane, it delivers up to 6,500 running watts of clean, stable inverter power that's safe for sensitive electronics, with enough capacity to handle major appliances, a well pump, and HVAC equipment. A rugged all-metal frame, 100% copper windings, and a cast iron cylinder sleeve are built for long-term reliability, while electric push-button and wireless remote start make getting power online effortless. Backed by a 3-year warranty and USA-based support, the DS8000iX is just as ready for a jobsite, food truck, or weekend getaway as it is for home backup.

Fully Loaded Power Panel
The DS8000iX's fully loaded power panel puts every connection within easy reach. Four 5-20R household outlets and one L14-30R twist-lock outlet are protected by built-in GFCI, while a digital display tracks voltage and running hours at a glance. A battery switch, electric push-button start, and included wireless remote let you start the generator without ever touching the panel.
Power Your Whole Home
When severe weather knocks out the grid, the DS8000iX keeps the essentials running — refrigerators, sump pumps, lighting, and HVAC — for as long as 21.5 hours on a single tank of gas at 25% load. Dual fuel flexibility means you can switch to propane when gasoline is scarce, and RV-ready connections make it just as capable on the road, at the jobsite, or off the grid.
