Description
8,000-watt Electric Start Portable Generator With COSENSE® Technology
Generac’s GP8000E offers many benefits that make this model a favorite for emergency power or recreational use. PowerRush™ Advanced Technology delivers over 30% more starting capacity* (*increase electrical current upon demand above rated output when starting electric motors), and electric start makes the GP8000E easy to use (battery included). You’ll always be prepared with the plug-in battery jack that keeps the battery charged and ready for unexpected outages. The long-lasting OHV engine and large-capacity steel fuel tank with fuel gauge provide increased durability and up to an 11-hour runtime at 50% load. Rough or rugged environments will not be an issue thanks to the covered outlets for added protection, heavy-duty wheels that will never go flat and a fold-down handle that will enable you to easily transport your generator to any location. The low-oil feature will automatically shut down the generator, preventing damage to the unit, while the hardened 1.25-in. steel-tube cradle increases strength and resilience. And with the regular maintenance alerts provided by your hour meter, you’ll never be caught off guard.
