smileypete Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Noticed this on Screwfix over the weekend, £169.99 for a small inverter genny doesn't sound tooo bad... http://www.screwfix.com/p/impax-im800i-700w-inverter-generator-230v/15760 OK, 'ya get what ya pay for', but this sort of money buys a lot better cheap genny than a few years ago, and if it breaks within the guarantee it could be returned to the local Screwfix. Not as good as a Honda clearly, but might serve as a bit of a backup to solar in the winter months. There's also some reviews for an identical looking genny on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Earthquake-11613-Portable-Generator-Compliant/product-reviews/B00FL89I2W/ref=dpx_acr_txt?showViewpoints=1 Put it this way, you could have a fairly decent solar setup AND this little genny for the price of a Honda EU10i, not bad if you're on a budget. cheers, Pete. ~smpt~ Edited July 14, 2014 by smileypete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard10002 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Run time over two hours, but not over three hours, otherwise they could say over three hours. Might be enough for some........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a typo, says 4hrs at 100% load in the manual and elsewhere: http://www.xingyuegenset.com/products/Inverter-Generator/Inverter-Generator-95.htm For a long weekly batt charge it'd probably be more or less idling away much of the time. cheers, Pete. ~smpt~ Edited July 14, 2014 by smileypete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
