I've heard that they are as good as the Honda.

Possibly but they are noisier than the Honda (size for size) having had both. Honda purrs MM putters

i read somewhere they are the electronic pulses created by the genny,if you have them they are supposed to stop any damage to delicate leccy items(ie laptops)i have used my laptop when the genny has been on with no problems.
this is what got up honda,s nose as it was copied from their model.(so it must be good)

Difference between Honda & M. Mart generator is like Rolls Royce and Ford, you get what you pay for.

yes agree
but when its half the price and does a virtually identicle job,you go with what you can afford.

answer,how long is a peice of string.a chap i know drives a morris minor which is over 55 years old,had it from new,probably paid £250 for it,i have a volvo xc70,cost new over £34000 4 years ago,will my car reach 55?i really dont think so.
ps i did not buy it new,i would never pay that much for ANY car(not that i can afford it)thats why i bought my excellent kipoor(yellow)as opposed to the red ones they bought out.dont want anyone to think i am loaded.?
reason for being skint i just bought a new van

I believe red kipors are digitally modified waveform that puts a bit of a point on the square wave. Will not power everything, can have large spikes.
Whereas yellow kipors are pure sine wave, same clean electricity as in your house. Will power anything.

that sounds the same as the Clarke ones,

We have decided to go with the Kippor

If you can afford it go for a pure sine wave type. Much better for electronic goods , microwaves ect.
It may be worth looking at a 80 or 125w sola panel and two batteries with 12 volt chargers for phones ,lap tops ect and a sine wave inverter around 1000w to 1500w for short use of things like hair dryers hovers ect.
This may be cheaper and lighter , depending on your needs.
Also more sites are getting fussy about generators.

I have a Xantrex 1800i 24V inverter that I may be interested in selling if anyone is interested. It has all the cables and I can provide an RCD and 16A Euro connector (standard carvan type) for the output.

Pm me if you are interested, these are top notch inverters retailing at around £1200. Make me an offer if you want

Pic is not mine but a quick web pic, I shall provide pictures of my one if anyone is interested.
