suco01:Well, it's possible the starting watt is not very high. Before my neighbour started having issues with his generator, it was able to run his Thermocool AC better than than his Polystar, both of them are 1.5Hp. With time it couldn't even power up the Polystar. 1 Like |

Time will tell. You forget that the life expectancy is cut short with this kind of use. Let's see if that generator will last 5-7 years without a major overhaul. suco01: |

How will starting watts not be high? using the Hisense above of 1200W how will starting watts not reach 2000 - 2500watts. and he forgets the compressor will always be asking for this intermittently without telling you (I am about to ask o ). They will power ac first and plug other appliances of 500watts (including your freezer/fridge- some will even have tokunbo version). and now at intervals the ac and fridge/freezer will start/stop. After a few years gen will start to loose compression power, leak oil from gasket areas... we will then be blaming quality forgetting that lack of knowledge to manage the asset contributed to the early demise of the investment (generator).

Hmm! There is little to no standard here. Al lot of manufacturers usually slap numbers that cannot be always replicated on equipment. For Suco, to test how well your 2.8Kw gen will handle such, plug a 1.8Kw microwave, see the high level of noise and observe the vibrations. Simply put, it is not advisable. Gptech: |

Gptech:You may be right. But the lutian LT3900 gen rated at 3.8kw will conviniently power a 1.5hp ac including the hustler max 3.5kva with other loads.

Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Gptech(m): 4:32pm On May 21, 2021 |
tobintin:This is the reason why Inverter AC is advised against the non inverter type. The intermittent off and on of the non inverter type is the issue. |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Gptech(m): 4:44pm On May 21, 2021 |
ringi82:Some of these sites sef! Kva and Kw are not the same thing. The Lutian is 3.8kva(3040W) max, the Thermocool hustler Max is 4.75kva(3800W) max. There's almost an 800W between them, don't use the chart of the Thermocool to assume for the Lutian.

Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by ringi82(m): 9:51pm On May 21, 2021 |
Gptech:As long as the load is not more than 3.5kva, the lutian gen is good to go. I just want a relatively affordable gen at a reasonable price that can conviniently load a 1.5hp normal ac. Even if its only the ac I'm going to run. The heat for my area na die. |

Hello, I just caught up to this thread, i need to know if the Sumec firman SPG 2200 1.8kva gen can power a small flat with 5bulbs. 2 laptops, a bedside fridge a ceiling fan, a 32inch Tv and a 30w sound bar and some phones? Thanks. |

Can sum1 recommend a true rating generator that can power this washing machine. Hisense 8kg full automatic front load. The week I bought it, I have issues with my small Gen not able to power it. Then I bough sumec navigator 6kva rating and it still didn't power it. I made complaint to fouani stores and dey sent their LG technicians with a Maxi generator EK28 Model, and it powers it conveniently. The Maxi EK28 model is 3.5kva rating. I asked wat I could do to make my generator power it, dey said I have to use AC Freezer to step down the power for the washing machine to work. Most of my appliances are energy saver especially my solar freezer. I am stuck now. Can any engineer recommend a gen of 3.5 KVA (true rating) for me? Please note: The washing machine works perfectly with Nepa light.

suco01:Oga nobody said a 3.5kva gen cannot power a 1.5hp ac, the advice we gave is that the AC will damage the engine quicker. I have a neighbour who was using his 2.5kva gen to power a 1hp pumping machine, gen is no longer working uptimally after only 2 months. Again i will advice anybody planning to use a 1.5hp non inverter ac to get at least a 4.5kva gen.... 1 Like |

lakefist:A sumec 6kva could not power your washing machine, but a maxi 3.5kva did? Are you sure the Sumec was truly 6kva gen? 2 Likes |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by suco01(m): 7:35pm On May 22, 2021 |
TrebleChamp: Whichever way u try to paint it, I still maintain it that 3.5kva will power and run 1.5hp. Why should you advise ATLEAST 4.5kva for non inverter AC. Dey take am easy with your advise once more. |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by suco01(m): 7:50pm On May 22, 2021 |
