Hyundai Diesel Silenced Generator 5000W

Starts off a bit loud for 10minutes when we first used it for a few weeks. Now that it has been used a few times it is only loud for approximately minute. We are using it on our water pump. Has worked fantastic to compliment the Solar Panels when it is raining.

Great reliable generator runs & performs well

I have previously reviewed this product, and was/am happy with it. But we have had an issue when pairing into our Sunny Island PV solar battery system. What I found is that the mechanical governors are just not accurate enough to maintain 50hz from no load to (say) 4kw. And our pv inverters demand a pretty accurate 49 to 51 hz range. I think it would be possible to retro fit an electronic speed controller coupled to a stepper motor to control the injector rack but as I seldom need to use it as a back up I've made do with a hand over ride speed control. Takes a minute or so to get it all in sync, but works fine. Peter.... Stewart Island

I am disappointed in this product. It is not user friendly nor is it silenced. Neither of these impact functionality

Great little genset, easy to use and silent.

I purchased this generator to help get me on track with my goal of off grid living, so far it has been very reliable and easy to use. Produces more than enough energy for my power tools and will eventually be connected to an off grid solar system. Well built solid unit, Very happy with this product.

Very Happy at the moment, but since purchase I have heard from others who have bought one, had trouble 300-500 hours. But very happy at moment.

Highly recommended 100% satisfaction

Very good value for money. Very happy with purchase.

The unit I bought has now done 150 hours. No complaints whatsoever about the performance. Starts instantly, and when the load is applied handles 3 fridges & 2 freezers start load without any apparent problems. When final installation is complete will be used together with solar panels to keep a large bank of batteries charged which will run an inverter. Stuff I wish was better. The manual is pretty useless. "If you can't get power because the switch is turned off, turn it on" Or something like that. No Electrical diagram of any sort. Some of us can read these things... The enclosure is terribly restrictive. Gave up trying to fit the insulating covers to the battery terminals. An oil suction pump should be provided or at least offered as an extra. If you live remotely, can't just pop down to the local Supercheap. Seems like a hell of a good core unit. It's a pity about the add-ons.
