Haaaa this one don even pass 20mins sef

Its possible repairer has damaged your battery in an attempt to remove the screen. If it's possible, get another battery to test. By the way, how does the phone behave, is it constantly on miui logo or it goes off sometimes. If it's constantly on the miui logo, do you at anytime notice a change in the screen brightness?

Obton:
Good evening boss. So I followed through with your instructions. Even changed the engine oil. But the loud chattering noise still remained. Engineer later came and said both the smoke and sound where due to a damaged crankshaft and I'd need like 13k to fix everything.

Omo, I don go return the gen laikdis. I nor fit for stress in the name of cheap stuff.
The gen even seemed badly maintained cos the engine oil was practically dry before I changed it.

Planning to get to Benin soon to just buy a brand new Thermocool junior.

Peace is priceless! Thank God for you . Many times awoof dey purge belle, many times sellers sell off because of the plenty wahala they have faced, even mechanics advise them to sell off problematic generators, na the buyers I pity.

Orlaoluwayimika:
Thanks bro.

Pls do u know any sure showroom where I can get the original generator around mainland side.

Their outlet (Fireman) posted on their site that is in ikeja said they are not open for now and the lady I spoke with said she is not sure when they would open.

Other dealers I am seeing are just like regular online store without showroom promising to deliver and I ve seen ur warning where u said neva buy online.

So I would appreciate if u can recommend any walk in store around

There should be other outlets on their site. It's better to even travel far not minding the cost to get an original.

molybdenum0012:
It’s a synthetic oil, 5W-30


I am also suspecting the plug… cos it makes this popping sound and then goes off

Good oil. Yes, you should clean or change the plug. Are you sure the oil is still not too much? Oil should not be dripping out when the generator is placed on a level ground with the oil cover off.

Obton:
Lemme see whether the sound improves a bit when I increase the speed.

You have to actually reduce the speed to achieve that.

molybdenum0012:
Hey guys,

Please what could be wrong with my fireman spg3000. I change the oil from heavyduty to my vehicle engine oil ( Hardex), since then the generator refuse to start. I figured out I poured too much oil as large oil were seen deposited at the filter. So I had to drain some out to the full limit marked and then clean the oil filter and also the plug. I try starting it again, it worked! But for a few seconds. Then I tried again, it then make an explosive noise and never start:


What could be wrong please? Could it be the oil I used?

Please your input:

What's the weight of the oil?

Obton:
Hello boss Gptech. So I've gotten this lutian 1.0kva gen. Seems to be working fine. Only problem is the excessive noise. Like it's really intolerably loud. And it smokes a lot. I'm suspecting the smoke is just too much engine oil though. But is there anything I can do about the noise?

And what else should I be checking for in the gen to confirm it's in good condition?

You should have gone with an engineer to check it for you. At that price, some parts may have been replaced hence the noise and smoke. Try reducing the running speed a bit if the noise with decrease

Hello GPTech.

I've decided to go for the Sumec 2900. 2.2kva.

Will this be good enough to carry my Tv, Laptop, Sound system and Small fridge properly.

Yes, it's even more than enough.

Orlaoluwayimika:
Thank u very much boss.

He actually reffered to the yellow one in this picture as a 2.8kva gen.
Since this particular one is a 3.5kva then I shld be fine with it right.

Because the pump is 1.5hp, should go with the red one.

[quote author=genius43 post=105695733][/quote]Make I jus drop dis last one here, I nr even search for these threads ooo, blike one mod dey use miui dis night .

genius43:
Xiaomi sent the the bug to the A70.

Weekend to begin like dis .

I don laf tire, meanwhile, where the bug hunters.....

Orlaoluwayimika:
Thank u bro I spoke with one of Sumec dealers today for pricing and he said a 3.4kva is 178k and 3.3 kva 160k pics attached below (tho not exactly this but he said it looks like this) respectively.

I intend going to their showroom tomorrow in ikeja to make my choice.

For ur final input, do u think a 3.3kva would serve me cos 18k plenty small

Many of those sellers don't know the difference between kva and Kw, they use them interchangeably. The Red one is 4.25kva (3400W) max while the yellow one is 3.5kva (2800W) max. Now you know the reason for the difference in price.

udosam:
Ogaboss Gptech,

Please me chose between Lutian LT3600 which is 3.5kva and Sumec Firman 2.5KVA SPG2900 both are Manual.

Which is better and stronger not minding the rated power and both are enough for my use.

Basically, we want know how strong is the lutian compared to sumec sir.

Thank you very much

Don't trust Lutian, go for original Sumec.

Obton:
Hi boss Gptech. What do you think about this gen going for 20k. It's a lutian 1800s with 1.0 kva rated output. Would it be able to power one TV, small table top fridge, ceiling fan, standing fan, home theatre system and laptop?

Everything will never be on at the same time tho.

Can't say about the fridge sha. If it's possible, test it before paying.

Orlaoluwayimika:
Thank u very much boss.
I sincerely appreciate ur response.

With the brand and kva u re recommendingbit loos like it is way above my budget.

I ve cancelled AC from it patapata but the pumping machine and oda appliances still stays but won't be used concurrently.

Is there any gen that can work for my budget (150k).
I spoke with an engineer b4 stumbling on this thread so he recommended Constant ELePaQ 3000.
What's ur take on that and do u know any where around mainland (Ketu) that I can get original

The pumping machine is the main issue here, you need something big to power a 1.5hp. That Elepaq 3000 looks like 2.5kva generator. With around 170k or so should get your problem solved.

Orlaoluwayimika:
Hi Gptech,

I would appreciate ur honest review of this generator attached below

Intending usage is to power a TV, two fans, small freezer, 1.5 hp pumping machine, washing machine and an inverter AC not sure of the hp of the AC but the picture is attached below.

Pls note that all of this items won't b running concurrently but just a picture of what I intend using the gen 4

Or can u recommend a generator for me that can suit my usage/budget
My budget is btw 100-130k

Honestly, I can't give a proper review as I haven't used it before. But for your need, go for at least a Thermocool Major (3.75kva) or Sumec SPG 3000E2

saddik:
Are u saying that for 115k 3kva generator is a fraud?
Just asking pls, and do u have any knowledge on this brand called Corolla Generator.
Picture above.

This is only the second or third time I am seeing this brand.

saddik:
Hello Prof,
I want to buy a 3kva Corolla generator in Abuja.The price is 115k and it comes with key start and also has a wheel. I want anyone who has a review on the quality of the product as well as ruggedly compared to sumec.
The dealers told me its better cos they are many fake sumec on the market.
Pls I will appreciate ur advice.
Tmx.

Why won't they say it's better when they obviously want to force it down your throat. Since they know fake Sumec is everywhere they could have made themselves different from others and sell only originals. You can't get an original 2.5KVA generator for 115k now. If money is not an issue you can experiment with this.

samoy:
Thanks Gptech for ur response sir. Pls, can I get Tec Bobo manual or the one with wheel and kick?

Both have same power, the electric start is for more convenience.

SILENTandSMART2:
Okay sir

What about my second space i don forget it password...

Ppu are talking about bugs on redmi devices, but I never notice any bug on my Redmi note 8, or am I not observing close enuff? I usually thought redmi devices are almost flawless in all dimensions.

There are millions of users like you with no single complain, but people like to pay attention to the minority, looking for issues where there's none.

ityP:
But seriously, if you're looking for bugs after updating a device, you go see am. I updated my Redmi Note 4 that I got late last year abi early this year sef (I don forget). No issues whatsoever. Every phone has its ish

Everything don turn bugs now, even when network ish dey too na bug, some ppl just like exaggerate. Even when we used to have weekly beta updates, the bugs complain nr even near wetin these ppl dey talk now.

Klamour:
Gptech,
please, what's your view about Maxmech generators? I need a 6.5 - 7kva generator to power a fridge, freezer, 1.5hp & 2hp AC (both are LG GenCool, Smart inverter). I will appreciate your recommendation

Don't trust any right now except Thermocool and Sumec. If you are bent on the Maxmech, take a good mechanic with you to inspect it.

heybel:
What is the price range of the thermocool junior?

Should be around 80k region.

Phayteprecious1:
Please how can I connect my email to my mi account?

Go to Mi account on any browser, sign in, you'll see recovery email, add your email address from there.

SILENTandSMART2:
How..

With either the phone number or email address you used to sign up for Mi account.

samoy:
Thanks for your timely response but what if I put everything off before putting on the pumping machine. To pump water doesn't take more than 20mins and this would be done twice in a week at most. Can I still get Tec Bobo 2.5kva for it? I need ur candid opinion sir

Yes of course, you can get it.

sbot:
Boss,

Please can you help with Firman flagship stores especially on the Island. Thanks

Not sure about Island, but check out the numbers on this link http://ng.sumecfirman.com/list-5-1.html

heybel:
Am very happy to find this forum...

I'm thinking of getting a generator tomorrow. My gadget: Tv, table size freezer, standing fans, etc.

Can 1.3kva senwei gen power the above listed gadgets without issues?

Thermocool junior is recommended for that size of generator, forget about Senwei.
