Verified5 reviews
Great unit for use in the recent flood in Brisbane – Bought this 18 months ago to use when we go camping which works great.But the big test was recently when we we were flooded in our estate, the unit started first pull and ran our main fridge , chest freezer & our Ingall fridge plus a charged all our portable chargers plus our neighbours. I was surprised when our friends bought around there coffee maker….no problem it did not trip nor did it when I tried a 4 slice toaster. So I highly recommend this product in this price range
Purchased in for $450.
engine seized failed – After about 40 hours of operation spread over 3 years the engine seized. Was always at full oil level,always operated on flat ground, oil changed each year/20 hours. Otherwise it started easily and ran well, quiet operation.
Purchased in at eBay for $350.

can you get me a replacement conrod or tell me that original engine designation is so I can source one from china. that would be all the help i need. Turns out the oil lubrication gear that drives off the crankshaft came of its spindle (C-clip fell off) and that caused the conrod 'big end' to seize on the crankshaft.
Not perfect – I have only used it a few times,less than 20hours.it did run my air con in caravan just,electric toaster,kettle separately,not used for 12 month's,now it won't run the toaster.etc.tried running my 1000 watt Holegen light stand.and it won't operate them.just goes out on overload. I FIXED IT.,had to clean the carburetor,and I sprayed the electric throttle body with inbox.
Purchased in at Mytopia for $560.
yes all good – that company seems only to stock great quality genet's and invertors. even have a fuel filter something other brands off internet don't have. and this makes them much more reliable. a fellow boatie has one next size down I could believe it had a fuel filter when I serviced it for him. it does blow smoke but. he has done many hours charging his battery bank with it.
Enough quiet power at a fraction of the cost – Brought this generator on eBay from Edisons. A fraction of the cost of the big brand names. Delivered in two days to Horsham (Vic) I filled it with oil and fuel and had it running in no time. I run it with no load for 1 hour then changed the oil (I use SAE30) and run it for one hour at 75 % load. Starts very easily and runs very quiet at idle. With 50% load you can carry on a conversation right next to it. A bit louder at 75% and above. The cold start label is back to front so hot is cold and cold is hot. Had me stumped the first couple of pulls. If that is the biggest problem I have then I will be happy. Runs the caravan stuff but of course not all together. The way I have it figured I can get 4 of these delivered compared to one Honda so although I know this is not a Honda (I know I will be told this at lots of campgrounds) it does the job.
