Could not pass up the deal I got on this through Outbax, I paid $264 delivered! Great little 800w generator! It was bought as backup to charge my 1200w Power Station, when no Solar or 240v is available.The battery's AC input charge is max 600w so the 800w is more than enough. Runs all or most of my power tools, Dremel, drill and small grinder etc… Read more · 1
easily anything within spec. I added oil and fuel engaged the choke, primed the fuel, it started easily on only the second pull, then on the first kick after turning off and restarting after a few minutes. Cheers
Great small and lightweight generator for when the sun won't charge my battery while camping. I like it because it doesn't take up much room. Easy to start too. Highly recommend Show reply
We are very happy with our Gentrax Generator, it saved our holiday last year as we do a lot of bush camping. The fridge blew up the batteries went flat, so we used the Generator for 5 weeks. It was so good on fuel, glad we bought it. Show reply
Super quick delivery , customer service and information Brilliant, generator started immediately by following the concise instructions, generator performance every bit as good as a similar 2.2Kva generator but a third of the price , have had multiple generators and this is undoubtedly the best value generator I have had by a long shot and backed by excellent customer service, thank you Show reply
Had it for a couple if years, only ran it once to test, then I prepped it for storage. When I needed it to work, it ran fine for half an hour before an overload warning turned it off. Minimal current draw at the time. It will restart, but overload shuts it off every time about 5 seconds later with no appliances connected. Not good! Looks like the… Read more
inverter failed. Gentrax wouldn't cover it as it was out of warranty, and offered half price on a new inverter board. So that's better than nothing.
But frankly, getting 1.5 hours out of this unit is not good, and I was very badly let down by the unit when I really needed it (3 day power outage).
Delivered quickly, good price way cheaper than solar batteries run well. I like my generator a lot. The customer service is impeccable. Show reply

Gentrax G3500 open frame generator – Very happy with our Gentrax open frame inverter generator which we bought from Outbax. This is our second review and our thoughts are still the same as we thought of it first time round. We have used it twice now due to power cuts and could not be happier easy to start and very economical on fuel, also not noisy. Thank you Outbax and Gentrax. Show reply
GT 2000pro a great unit indeed – I must say we are very happy with our new Gentrax GT 2000 Pro inverter generator, ( which I note is sold out, no wonder at all ) a very good all round model it basically runs all our needs large Samsung fridge and my wifes home office with absolutely no problem at all, in fact as a trial we managed an entire work day and the unit just ran out of… Read more · 1
fuel towards the end of an eight hour day, pretty good we reckon. As we live far NW regional Tassie unfortunately power interruptions are common, which given the rural area no surprising so we now have no worries at all.
Go Gentrax – Fantastic Generator, runs our Caravan A/C, Microwave and other 240v gear no worries, quiet and great on fuel, so much cheaper than its big-name competitors and just as good (if not better), and what a great company to deal with, follow up after purchase has blown me away, thanks James.

Gentrax G3500 Inverter Generator – Gentrax G3500 Inverter Generator was delivered on time. Operating it was was straight forward with clear instructions. Always starts on the first pull. No issues at all. Great little genset. Highly recommended. Show reply
Excellent inverter generator for a reasonable price – Received my Gentrax GT2200 inverter generator two days after ordering directly from Gentrax. It took five minutes to set up and started on the second pull. It was able to run a continuous 1600w load without any problem. It handled surge demand from a fridge/freezer easily. Ran a front loading washer through a long cycle without a hitch. Run… Read more · 1
time on a full fuel load was about 4.5 hours. Noise level was very good indeed - very close to that of similar models from Honda and Yamaha. Build quality appears to be excellent.
There are frequent grid outages where I live and this unit is perfect for keeping essential appliances running. I would purchase this unit again in a heartbeat.
Pleased value for money – Needed a generator to replace me 1kw honda Didn't want to spend $1400.00 on something I use infrequently . Gentrax price was so cheap I was hesitant and sceptical about buying but once it arrived and i tested it . Its a beauty perfect for charging my deep cycle system and fits nicely for storage behind passengers seat in my camper . Output isn't… Read more · 1
anywhere near 700/800watt more like tops 500/600watts but I expect that for price range still great for size and price

Dipping my toe into lithium – I purchased my gentrax 200ah lifepo4 battery on Bunnings online as a third party seller. Product was on special. Cheap cheap but I did some research and at that price it was worth dipping my toe. Delivery was excellent. So now fitted and working to replace 2x 120 ah agms. So far plenty of power . Now it’s been put into storage only charge once a… Read more · 1
qtr. Hoping that I get a fraction of the 2000 cycles advertised. So far so good. Time will tell. I fitted a victron charger and a smart shunt to monitor and charge it so I will be able to tell if it’s degrading prematurely.
Bloody good unit – Had mine for 3 years and use for caravanning as well as a work backup where power isn't available. Starts first pull 99% of the time. Ran 2 fridge/freezers, tv, internet and lights when power was off in West Gippsland recently. 2 fuel tanks kept us happy for 3 days and, thanks to a gas wall heater, we were warm as the generator ran the heater fan.

Gentrax plenty of portable power – I recently had a power outage from. A storm for 4 days I used this generator non stop for the 4 days It ran my two fish tanks , lights, tv , fridge. I had no problems with it and it starts easily. Comes with Instructions on how to maintain. Show reply
Backup power – Performed beyond my expectations. Generator + electrician under $3,000.00 Can comfortably run my house in case of blackouts Hot water looked after by solar diverter. Highly recommend. Show reply
Gentrax genset – The little Gentrax 3 kva gene is a beauty, have had the big name brands before and it is every bit as good as those. Show reply
Used it for 5 years and never let me down to power caravan and fridges – Best generator I’ve used and super quiet better than Yamaha Show reply
gentrax review – recently took generator camping to charge batteries in camper run jenny every day for a week and did not even use 20ltrs of fuel great economy and quiet to run always started first go so impressed i bought a second one Show reply
Do your self a favour get this generator – Small compact powerhouse, easy to start runs like a Charm best decision I’ve made in many years to purchase it Show reply
So much better than expectations – Currently gold prospecting in outback WA. Temperature has been in the mid to high 40,s. The generator runs flawlessly in one of the harshest environments. Fuel economy is as advertised and the reliability is better than expectations. Brilliant machine providing all the power we need. We run a ibis 4 airconditioner, battery charger and an airfryer without issue. Show reply

Awesome little generator – Bought a 3500i open frame generator from Outbax camping eBay. Arrived yesterday brand new in the box. Opened it up filled with 10w30 Honda premium 4 stroke oil and it fired first pull. I am currently running it in with a 1kw heater before I load it up to max. After 20 hours running in @ 1kw I will drain the oil and fill it with new oil and put a… Read more · 1
new plug in it like the manual recommends. 10.5 hour's continuous running with 1kw load and it only used 10L of fuel. Only issue is fuel leaks out of the cap if full and tilted because it has to thin of a rubber seal under the cap from factory. That and it used 120ml of oil after 18 hours running in which I thought was a bit excessive for brand new piston rings. There was a bit of broken steel/metal shavings in the first oil change which the manual said there would be. I'll run it for another 20 hour's and hopefully the oil consumption slows down a little now it's broken in. Other than that it's a very good generator.
Great after sales service – Great service and excellent after sales service. The team were fast to respond to my query and very helpful. Show reply
Disgraceful piece of equipment – I have been in constant contact with both Gentrax and Outbax camping regarding this so called generator and all I’ve got is return it to us for service….the shipping cost is in excess of $200 so that’s not an option. Next off they told me to take it to a local small engine repair shop for evaluation …I asked who footed the bill for this work….no… Read more
answer to that one…..I have had this generator for some time and it will only start after 60 or 70 pulls and I have had a complete wrist fusion which makes this difficult to achieve…wth the help of my son we have managed to start it on two occasions but have now given up as it’s near mission impossible. Despite the Gentrax representative telling me he would achieve a satisfactory outcome for me, it appears that he too has now put it in the too hard basket….disgraceful actions by both Gentrax and the retailer Outbax camp,ing
