Generac’s GP8000E Portable Generator Features

Powerful 8,000-Watt Capacity for Heavy-Duty Use

This generator offers 8,000 watts of power, making it perfect for running multiple appliances, tools, and electronics at the same time. It’s ideal for emergency backup, construction sites, or outdoor activities needing reliable, high-capacity electricity.

Easy Electric Start So It Is Always Ready to Run

No more pull cords or dead batteries. The GP8000E features a one-touch electric start (battery included) and a plug-in charger jack that keeps your battery topped off and ready whenever the lights go out.

PowerRush™ Technology for Extra Starting Power

PowerRush™ technology provides over 30% more starting capacity, making it easier to power demanding appliances like refrigerators, air conditioners, and power tools. It boosts electrical current when starting electric motors, saving time and energy during startup.

Easy Electric Start with Battery Included

The electric start feature allows us to turn on the generator with just a push of a button. The included battery ensures quick operation, so you don’t have to manually pull-start it every time you need power, saving effort and time.

Long Run Time For Less Refueling

The heavy-duty 7.9-gallon steel fuel tank with built-in fuel gauge delivers up to 11 hours of runtime at 50% load, so you can power through the night without interruption.

Smart Maintenance Reminders

With the built-in hour meter, you’ll always know when your next maintenance interval is due — keeping your GP8000E performing like new for years to come.

COsense® Technology for Safe Operation

COsense® technology monitors carbon monoxide levels constantly. If dangerous levels are detected, it automatically shuts down or alerts you. This ensures safe operation, especially in enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces, protecting you and your loved ones.

Rugged Design with Never-Flat Wheels

Built with heavy-duty, rugged wheels and a strong steel cradle, this generator is easy to move across rough terrain. Its sturdy construction withstands tough environments, and the wheels never go flat, making transportation and handling simple and reliable.
