Gurus in the house, good morning,I use a sumec fireman key start gen, the battery ran empty , bought a new battery, it didn’t use up to 3weeks it stopped starting until I pull to start, called a technology, he said the automatic kick had issues, he changed it there was a loud grinding noise, called him again he later said the complete kick had issues which he changed, he refused buying a new one he claimed follow come works better , issues now is key starter works ,but noise of the generator has increased, could the kick starter be the cause of the noise, every thing works fine just the increase in the noise while working

No....not from the kick starter...

Check the following..

a. Exhaust
b. high voltage
c. The coil sitting and the bearing in it .


Mind you ... If the coil sitting (some Repairers call it sitter)..is bad or making, it will damage the coil any moment...which means bigger cost

Good evening boss @Eenochgaga ur posts have been really helpful… pls I want to ask of ur opinion about some generators that I saw on jiji (I pass my neighbors) i saw then in various kinds which I want to be using for my mini footwear making business. I want to ask how if it’s advisable to buy them and besides I saw one that the seller claimed it came from Germany and it’s last price Is 45k. I will be using it for my bench grinder(shoe filing machine) and one industrial sewing machine. I don’t want to make a mistake that’s why I’m asking for ur opinion about the gen. I will attach some pictures of the gen from Germany and one other one I saw which the seller claimed it’s the old tiger generator(I pass my neighbors). Thanks for all u do sir

Don't mind them ..

Though the first generator claimed to be from Germany may be because the name isn't in our market but is better for you to buy a brand new small generator . That 45k will get you a new one and better quality too

Please sir I'm currently facing a very difficult situation right now
We haven't had gen in a long time so just recently, we got one new elepaq 4.5kva. although according to engineer he said its truly 2.8kva not 4.5kva as claimed
After it was coupled, we tested it for few minutes and it worked, the next time we turned it on same day, it brought light and immediately the power went off, the next day we called the installer and he confirmed the AVR got spoilt, we changed the AVR and turned it on, same thing happened... we've changed AVR 3 times consecutively and it is a new gen so our engineer decided the gen must be having factory fault problem cos once it's turned on and we change over, the transformer becomes hot immediately and the voltage rises towards 300 instead of 220 according to the engineer even without anything else being on apart from bulb but this is a generator that was tasted at the sellers shop and it worked perfectly for several hours
So later the seller changed the engine and gave us new one but to my greatest surprise, the issue still persist
So now it's obvious the problem is from our house not the generator, maybe from connection or something that we haven't figured out yet but same connection has been in use in the past without facing issues
Please what exactly do you think is the problem here and how can we resolve that cos right now it's as if we bought new gen but can't use it
Thanks

Yes...is from the factory..

But the issue is the small coil also called ametur...once bad...it will also damage the AVR

Good morning wisemen, My budget is 140k. I need a gen that can power a double basket fridge and a 1hp pumping machine at the same time.

3.5kva can do that

Thanks you, this noise started after the kick was changed though

Good morning people.

Please I’m looking for a new medium generator to buy.
Things I intend to power: a 32 inch smart tv, a laptop and a ceiling fan and 5 bulbs.

I see people advising against SENWEI, why exactly please?

A brand new Senwei medium size is 63k here, and a brand new Sumec Firman of same size is 80k.

I don’t want to spend more for differences I probably won’t notice, please I’ll need your honest advice.

What if I told you that this generator is cheaper than this, would you think it is fake?

You guys should stop patronising online websites claiming to be Sumec... If you need to make enquiries, come and I'll give you the best price.
I'm a direct importer of Sumec Fireman generator and Air-conditioner...... Sumecplaza is a website that buys from us and resell with over 30k or 40k profit

This gen matter na wa o!
I am now forced to get a gen for my office due to my noisy neighbors.

I'm considering buying the smallest thermocool generator but I have gone round different thermocool outlets here in warri but that gen is scarce.

I'm now thinking of tigmax, lutian or kemage. I just also saw up there that someone bought a navigator gen.
Pls which other brands is durable and robust?
I'm considering powering 2 bulbs, a fan, a 32 inch TV, a laptop, phones and power bank.

Gen prof and other experts abeg help.

Hi folks,

I need to get a 5kva gen. I am looking for the one with the least noise.
My current gen is rated 97db (10m) and that;s just too loud.
Please recommend a very good one and I don't mind switching to diesel.

Which Engine oil is the best for a Sumec Navigator 2.9kVA

Hello House,

Good afternoon


Please I need a 7.5kva generator. I am torn between a Sumec Fireman and a Thermocool.

Please which do you advise.

I hope people know that Sumec pass Sumec. Lol

Firman > Sumec Firman > Sumec (any suffix)


This Sumec Navigator I'm seeing upandan is not up to Sumec Firman SPG/FPG level o. Maybe that's why its cheap.

thank you Boss. Was busy today couldn't go... Thanks alot but Can I get a 4.5kvs or 3.5kv for 150k

Phoenix3000:

Yes it can. The gen is actually 3.75KVA/3.125KVA Starting/Running. I think you meant 2.5KW.

KallmemrB0:
thank you Boss. Was busy today couldn't go... Thanks alot but Can I get a 4.5kvs or 3.5kv for 150k

Naaa, 4.5kva is well over 200k, 3.5kva I think from over 170k depending on if its manual or electric start.

thanks boss on my way to a warehouse.. Can the 3.5kv carry 1.5-2hp AC too while freezer is on

Remove 2 HP AC from the equation. You can go ahead with 1.5 hp if the AC is inverter type.

I hate generators, no idea of price...

why not spend 1m to 2m on renewable energy and say bye bye to generators...it will pay for itself over time

My bosses, quick one.
I have a 3.7kva thermocol gen which I use for my 1.5hp inverter AC, 55inch TV, 190w thermocol refrigerator, 1 standing fan, mini home theater and 8-10 bulbs.
Now I plan on adding a pair of 2 or 3 hp standing AC (like the pics I attached below) , I don't know the power rating of standing AC. I want to ask what generator rating will power this type of AC with my present load too.

Only problem is renewable energy no fit carry AC and Co
