Shop name I not too sure.

But when I shop around, only 2 shops are selling portable gen set and the gen set are display out, its quite easy to spot them.

 

My 650w unit is good enough for my PC.

Its running on petrol, every 2L I pump can last me bout 4hrs.

As it is a 2 stroke engine, u need to add 2T to the petrol.

Size and weight is about a 14" tv

The user menu and a sticker on the gen set states 50:1 ratio.

The user menu did not mention anything on the min octane level, I have been pumping ron95 to it.

Hi, any bros know where to get the spark plug for the generator. It is different from our car plugs.

 

Thanks

You can ask those shops at Kelantan lane which sell portable gen set to do servicing for it.

 

Cheers

Thanks bro. Any idea how much it would cost? Thought of going there to get spark plugs.

I had a hard time trying to start the generator especially after long period of not using it.

Sorry Bro, I have no idea also.

But the boss told me that they do servicing when I got my gen set.

 

Cheers

May I know where to get the generators, and are they very cumbersome? Cos I stay at HDB, and seems not much choice if I want to machine polish....

Did you try from your home 240v power point and get the same results?

I would suggest everyone take a look at inverters, they work equally well, no noise, much less smoke, no 2t to worry about.

Only downside is you need to have the car's engine running after some time depending on how large your battery's capacity is.

 

Therefore, when using inverter, start with the front bonnet first with the car's engine off, then proceed to other parts with the engine on if needed.

 

I gave up on the generator after just one use, it is heavy to carry it from my home to the mscp, it is very noisy (unless you are using the honda generator which is quieter but cost much more), you have to make sure the exhaust points away from your work area and that the fumes are not blown towards your work area.
