inverter generator 3300W

Not the quietest in that if you want the power, and it's certainly got it, a smaller power model may be better for you. Done oil change as the book recommends and starts every time all season. Mainly powers my microwave and air fryer when camping.

Bought this a few months ago, and up until a couple of days ago had only done basic testing. However, on Christmas day, our power went out for 18 hours which was almost a disaster. I hooked it up to the house with the main fuse board switch off, and successfully powered the entire house for the duration - including my rather large / expensive salt water tropical fish and coral tank which in itself draws an average of around 1500w. Sure, it is not powerful enough to run our electric ovens, but with some careful load management kept the total power draw within it's 3.5kw rating. This little gem kept us from having our Christmas day ruined - almost everything was able to be used as normal during the power outage. So extremely happy with the generator performance - noise is acceptable when under full load, reasonably fuel efficient, and handled the continuous high power demand without any issues at all.

Used this because our electric was going on an off for over a month because of an one going fault at the local dub station To keep the fridge going because of insulin was easy to use compact size and plenty of power to run alot more. Easy to start......... before use id buy some cheap oil to fill it and run it for half hour then change the oil and buy some decent oil in. To get shut of any metal bits inside the generator engine.

I got an allotment recently - I wanted to dig out some posts but the ground was very hard, lots of stones, couldn't do it with a spade - so used the chisel function on a SDS dill (1500w) - that was zero issues. I have a garden waste crusher too that can use 2500w - which is why I went for this bigger unit (3500w). Always get a generator bigger than the wattage of the items you are going to use on it, the values stated (on this model 3500w) wouldn't run a 3500w unit - or at least not for long time or efficiently. I have a garden waste crusher which uses 2500W, so this should easily cover that. As its pure sine-wave, it should accurately reflect the 50mhz of the grid. I am thinking that I could put an isolator switch on the mains and feed this into the solar inverter. This should mean I can have power from the batteries even if the grid is down. Its pretty heavy, but still portable - carrying it a 100 yards or so can be done, but its not the kind of thing you would want to carry for half a mile ! Its not annoyingly loud either - especially when you have it running as an inverter - so low powered when not under any/limited load - like phone chargers etc. I'm pleased I bought it. Especially as I just found out we are having a day of a powercut for local infrastructure works. We have medicines in the fridge - this will power the fridge during that event and other things like phones etc

I purchased this generator to run our motorhome whenever mains hook up is not available. In the past I have just hired one, but they tend to be noisy, large and at around £70 a week, a pretty expensive option in the long run. I knew I needed around 3KW to use the travel kettle while the emersion heater was on, and I wanted something compact, quiet and not too heavy. Having read many reviews and watched a number of U-Tube videos I picked the maXpeedingrods 3300W petrol only model. This generator ticks all my major requirements and will happily provide all the current I need without any issues. It is really easy to start and is far more fuel efficient than the ones I have previously hired. It is exactly what the listing claims, it was delivered next day and it has worked perfectly ever since. So why only 4 stars? There a two things missing from this generator that would make it perfect for my application. 1 - It does not have a standard 16A socket for use with motorhomes and caravans 2 - It does not have an AC on/off switch, to isolate the load before starting. These are not major issues, I already had a 13 plug to 16amp socket adaptor lead, though it is not weather resistant, and it is not exactly difficult to unplug the generator before starting it, it is just annoying and easy to forget to do! The generator does not claim to have these features, and I purchased this product knowing that, so this is not a criticism of the product marketing, it is just a product limitation which could easily be improved by the manufacture. As you can see from the attached picture, I have now modified mine to have both a 16A and a 13A output and I added a 240V isolator switch. While this has invalidated the warranty is has made the generator perfect for my application, I may even get a new decal made up just for completeness :) In my experience, most things that are going to fail, do so in the first few hours of operation, so I am happy to forgo the warrantee for the extra convenience, I know others would feel differently. Should you buy this generator? Yes, the missing features may not be important to you, and they are certainly not show stoppers. This is a solid product with plenty of good product reviews from trustworthy reviewers. It is very quiet, especially in idle mode, fuel efficient and reasonably light weight and compact. Good value for money, especially if you buy it during a discount period, which seem to occur on a regular basis.

Just needed this during a power outage due to storm Goretti, worked flawlessly, gave us TV, WiFi, microwave, fridge. (Used a camping stove for tea) Only started it during daylight hours as it’s not completely quiet. Used about 2.5l petrol over 4 hours . Confident a tank will last 6 hours. Great piece of kit.

This maXpeedingrods 3300W inverter gennie is really great, economy mode is relatively quite for a gennie this powerful, easy to add oil before first time use and it starts really easily and in testing so far it runs our SoHo office kit 3 PC's, monitors, network switching and NAS file server fine as its an inverter with sine wave output. Also if we do need more power in future, for example to run the whole house through existing home wiring consumer unit into a Manual Transfer Switch (fitted by a qualified electrician) from Mains source to Genni into the consumer unit we can always buy and pair another one of them with double capacity. Also used it for a cutting and drilling project down the garden to power my 240V tools, well pleased. If your in any doubt, take the plunge and buy one you wont regret it, be wise to the looming daily blackouts next Jan and Feb 2023 its a decent investment

I’ve set the generator up as instructed, and I cannot start it. I’m having to get somebody to have a look at it so I’m not best pleased so it might have to come back to you regards Nick.
