Gptech:

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.

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

Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by udosam(m): 9:31pm On Sep 10, 2021
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.

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.

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.

Guys I intend getting Sumec fireman 1800.

Things I intending using it on, Tv set, 2 celling fans, home theater and mini fridge. Can this work? Or I should look for something higher.
Note: The price is 77k.
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by molybdenum0012: 12:27pm On Sep 11, 2021
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:

Hi boss Gptech. What do you think about this fairly used gen going for 20k?

It's a lutian 1800s with 1.0 kva rated output (Basically I better pass my neighbor with better design?) 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.

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?
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by IghravweIG(m): 1:26pm On Sep 11, 2021
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.

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

Oh, I haven't really finished up with the transaction. An engineer is supposed to come check it this afternoon and then I'll send the full amount.

Lemme see if I reducing the speed improves the sound.

You have to actually reduce the speed to achieve that.

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.

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

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. grin
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. smiley

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

Good evening everyone. How do I max out the capacity of this generator. I bought it for work and it's not doing it as expected. According to the specifications, it's 7.5kva generator. It's a kipor generator

Hello prof,

My Thermocool junior max 1500 generator sometimes drops to low current but when I put it off and on after a few times it returns to normal current. What could be the fault please?

Hi boss.

I eventually got the gen on Saturday evening. Got a contact of one of their dealers via their service centre.
I finally resolved to the one below due to budget constraints.

But I would like to ask is this a 2.5kva cos from their outlet they said this is 2.5kva.
