Hmmm, the one without tyre. There are three variants. I will send you the details later. They all look alike but very different based on capacity and make. I almost got the inferior one if not for detailed research and a trusted seller. I got it for 145k. Physical store.

Thanks for the info, kindly share the variants for proper identification, thanks in anticipation.

At least I now know that the 120k previously budgeted for this non-key model WON'T be enough.

Please will be expecting the details.

SV68000...Manual start, 145k

So I finally got the 4.5kva elepak generator.

Which model did you buy and is it one with tyre?

How much was it?

Exumal:
I've gotten elepaq SV6800. Rated 4.5kva. performed well during test today. I couldn't afford the kemage, it's quite expensive. Thanks sir.

Which one did you buy, is it the one with tyre or one without tyre?

How much did you buy it?

Was it online purchase or physical from a store? If online kindly send the URL.

Please help answer those questions!

Which brand and model of washing machine did you buy finally buy?

I bought LG Twin Tub Washer WM 961RDNL 7KG for 124k, but fouani sells at 123k.

The machine is just tagged 7kg but it's bigger than the 8kg in dimensions.

Attached are the pictures.

Israeltt:
8kg LG semi automatic machine

This machine does not take much power, I have it.

Washing Section = 360 Watts
Spinning / Wind Jet Dry Section = 260 Watts

I had to write emails to official LG email addresses both in SA, Dubai and Ng requesting for the wattage, even fuoani could not tell me the wattage and that made me not to buy it from them despite it was one thousand naira lesser than what I bought it.

Note: I used the smallest elepaq constant 1kva to power this machine comfortably.

@Gptech, I remembered asking you if Elepaq Sv6800 can power this machine but it was the seller that gave me a definite answer that I better pass my neighbor can power it; and we tested the machine before I bought it.

So bro your tec3.75kva will power this washing machine comfortably.

I had to take my time to write this to help others who intend to get this machine but are skeptical if they Gen Kva can power it.

Gptech:
If the pump is indeed 2HP, get a generator of at least 5000 running Watt from either Sumec or Thermocool.

Thanks, what about that of the 8kg LG washing machine, how many kva gen do I need for it?

Gptech:
This generator, I doubt if it's original. People have been advised to stay away from Elepaq for now, too many fakes around. They also stamp unrealistic power rating on these generators.

Okay which would you recommend for such load?

NB: The washing machine and pumping machine will be used at different time.

Avast:
EC5800CX, 2.5KVA.
I don't think I remember the hp of the machine

Thanks, but please help to check the HP of the machine as I intend buying Elepaq SV6800 3.5kva to pump water.

@ Gptech

Please can SV6800 carry 1.5hp or 2hp pumping machine?

Can it also carry "LG Twin Tub Washer WP-950RC 8KG"?

Lastly is it 3.5kva or 2.5kva?

Please help to answer those questions thanks.

Good morning, please I used to power my pumping machine with my Elepaq 2.5kva but now it is not powering it again. immediately I switch on the machine, it gives this horrible sound that shows it is working under stress so I just swith it off back.

What can I do, does it mean I can't use my gen with the pump again?

Please what's the model number of Elepaq you are using to pump water, how many KVA and what's the Horse Power of the pumping machine.

Kindly answer above 3 questions as I intend to purchase Elepaq that can pump water.
