Weird generator review
 
I know I wouldn't be very impressed with a generator that got loaded
down by a web page opening on a computer. The author doesn't seem to
understand what "load/speed control" implies.


===========================================
It has outstanding load/speed control, very responsive. I could hear the
slight change in pitch, and load correction, as the computer was loading
internet pages and then finishing. You can't get any better than that.

Nasty looking thing. Not legal in California.

I'm not surprised. The thing probably dumps more garbage into the air
than a cluster of Mississippi clunkers.

Those generic Chinese generators are a pretty good deal, if you never
run them more than about 50% of their rated loads, and your life doesn't
depend on them working.

-----

I went shopping for a portable generator a while back....
Dunno how it is in other countries, but you have to lay out some *major*
dollars to get a generator that either the engine or the generator head
isn't Chinese-made.

The most common problem I found (online) with the generics is the
regulator circuit on the gen head burning out. The parts aren't labeled
and getting replacement parts from the Taiwan manufacturer is a hassle,
if it's even possible.

I bought a generator from Sears, probably still Chinese/Chinese, but it
is bigger than I anticipate needing... and at least I can get parts for
it at Sears.

I hope....
