Do your electric start generators come with a battery?Updated a month ago
Electric Start Generator Battery Information
All electric-start DuroMax generators include the required 12V starting battery with the unit.
To preserve battery charge during shipping and storage, the battery is shipped with the negative terminal disconnected.
The battery will need to be connected during the initial generator setup before using the electric start feature.
How to Connect the Battery
During setup:
Locate the battery compartment on the generator.
Connect the negative battery terminal to the battery post.
Ensure the connection is secure and properly tightened.
Once connected, the generator will be ready to use the electric start (push-button start) feature.
