This is a portable generator from Generac with an electric start, so you don't need to pull a cord to get it going. It suits anyone who needs backup power at home or on the go, such as during an outage or at a campsite or job site.
What we like
- Rated for 11,250 watts at starting power, which gives extra headroom for motors and other loads that draw a surge when they switch on
- Rated for 9,200 watts of running power for steady, continuous use
- Electric start makes it quicker to fire up than a pull-cord model
- A well-known brand name in home and portable power
Worth knowing
- The 9,200-watt running rating is the number to plan around for everyday loads, since the higher starting figure only applies briefly
- Check that the total wattage of what you plan to power stays under the running rating before you buy
