I just bought the Junior Tec 1.5kva with Max output of 1.1kva.....for 66k at one of the Haiar Thermocool offices in Bode Thomas.

I decided to get the second gen because I noticed that my Sumec 2.5kva Gen was begining to suck fuel despite all the changes i have done to it, including changing the carburetor.

With the Sumec 2.5kva .....before it started sucking fuel, 4 litres would last for about 4hours but since the servicing and repairs, I noticed 4litres take around 3hours at more than half the capacity of the Gen output..... that was just not sustainable for me in this lockdown and working from home era....

That was when I decided to get a small Gen, despite the advice from my Gen Mech to get a Sumec because they make their own parts and blablabla.... I settled with Tec Junior

Does anyone has a seller of tec junior in port harcourt?
I am contemplating between SPG1800 and Tec junior. Although Tec seems more expensive.

I settled with Tec Junior because I noticed that most of the Sumec, Elepaq and all these other popular Generators in the market are the same thing with different tags.... getting an original Sumec will be a herculean task that I was not ready for..... when I checked online for the major distributor of Sumec Firman in Lagos, I only found one and they are in Ikeja.... who get that kind power....

Besides, the testimonies I have heard from tec users especially about fuel economy, as that ranks top on my list of importance, got me very interested. I went online and did my own research on Tec generators, when I pulled out their Datasheet and saw how everything was laid out and transparent, I just knew I would eventually go Tec. Plus you get the stated capacity and run time, and you are certain you are buying a generator with real copper armature and not some coated stuff with a lot of the fakes.

The Tec Junior impressed me the most,
from the data sheet, it says;

Full tank is 8.5L
At Half capacity with a full tank you can run the Gen non-stop for 18.9hrs

At full capacity with a full tank you can run the Gen non-stop for 10.5hrs

That was enough for me.... I don't run any major stuff in my house, just a couple of fans, one led TV, a couple of energy saving bulbs 3 20W and 1 40W.... that was exactly what I wanted.... I was looking for an "I pass my neighbor" equivalence but with AVR and separate oil chamber...

On the first day I used the Gen, I added 2 litres of Fuel and it lasted for 4 hours and I was more than half the capacity of the genset.
I am still guaging the fuel consumption.

Will probably put out more update when I see any striking difference but do far, I have been impressed by the fuel economy especially when I compare it with my 2.5kva sumec gen which I will only be using when I need to cool off the foodstuff in my refrigerator and freezer but the Tec Junior will take the lead for daily work.


Can you post a pic

The Junior Thermocool I know is 1100 watts max and 1000 watts rated

I clean mine every month after each oil change although if you don't normally use it all the time, you might have to increase oil change to every 6weeks provided you use good oil (I use mobil oil anyway).

My gen is 1yr 2months now and I've never change any part or do any service beyond oil change even I'm yet to change spark plugs till now

Led TV(2), decoder, fan, & lights (16pcs 15watts)

I don't really overload the gen at all because I tried to calculate power consumption of appliances I load on it to ensure I don't do much

You can use small fridge on the gen but please check the wattage on the mini fridge to ensure you don't overload your gen

Pls, who knows where one can buy the fuel tap for Tec Junior Max. Mine recently started dropping fuel even after locking tightly. All stores checked say they don't have it.

Thanks a lot, but the conventional ones have a different screw thread for connecting to the tank. They mostly have one that matches the Sumec type of Tec Junior.

Hello house, please how good is this Senci generator? It looks a lot cheaper than the popular brands( Firman and Thermocool). How good is the engine and fuel efficiency. Please would you recommend it or should I just save more to get the popular ones. Also, would you recommend Elepac generator?. Please help a brother. Really confused and dont want to make a mistake.

Thank youu.

Good Afternoon Prof. Please my sumec firman keeps burning appliances. This started after a mechanic changed the spark plug. He is saying I need to change the piston and rings

Generator is less than 8 months old
I am not a gen prof but I don't think piston and rings have anything to do with burning appliances problem should be with capacitor.
