Looking for a generator with the ff specs:

- 5 - 6kVA range.
- prefer diesel, but gas is ok
- easy start + manual start available
- silent type(optional)

Ano pong magandang brand, one that is serviceable with plenty of parts?

Regarding the noise: is it possible to DIY an insulation enclosure for the generator?

Malaki ba price diff between normal and inverter-type engines?

thanks

Power generators Usually last for 20k hours... On prime power...

Diy enclosures.. Pwede

But I don't recommend... Too many factors to consider...

Pag Mali ang pagkagawa.. It can start a fire, overheating problems, problems sa pag service sa unit.... Accessibility...

sir glenn, is it true na possible i-convert ang car engine into a generator set?
sabi kasi ng pinsan ko, bili na lang daw kami ng diesel or gas engine tapos i-convert nya.

if possible, anong pros & cons non?
thanks in advance.

Sir maganda po ba yung kipor? a dealer once told me this is the #2 genset brand in China, class "A" naman daw. Di kaya problema sa piyesa?

Tried looking for Honda, they don't seem to have any (locally) beyond 3kVA.

Also tried looking at Kubota...parang wala naman less than 10kVA :p


Re car motor as generator: with enough engineering knowledge and machine shop skills, pwede siguro, but considering even a lowly 40hp engine, that's around 29kVA right? Unless you have that kind of load, parang sayang lang sa fuel.
