tjh82 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hi all I'm looking at getting a Henry vacuum cleaner to try and tackle an epic dust problem as i'm essentially living on a floating workshop! The model on amazon is 620 Watt, would i be able to run this off my generator? I thought it would save the batteries rather than use the inventor as i'll need to use it for pretty long blasts. My generator is a Kawasaki GA 1400A (4.55A - 5.2A if this helps?!) Thanks in advance, sure there's some clever equation or summat to work out if it'll blow up. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bagdad Boatman (waits) Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 looks ok to me we ran a wet/dry vac with a 1k genny. Look at Lidl/ aldi if they are selling one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaneyJ Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Will run it easily. There is a vid on Youtube of your generator running an old Dyson. Those old Dysons are a lot more inefficient using twice the power of your new low-power Henry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Smith Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I bought a titan wet and dry from screw fix for my fit out, cheaper, bigger and more powerful but a bit louder and should be fine with your genny. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldPeculier Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I've got the Henry Micro which at 580w runs off my little 800w gennie no problem. http://www.amazon.co.uk/NUMATIC-HVR200MA2-Henry-Vacuum-Cleaner/dp/B00N2S98NM/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1443626970&sr=1-1&keywords=henry+micro+vacuum+cleaner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyLady Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 I guess my 2400w Vax would draw too much power. That really sucks :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
