6.5 hp
3 240V outputs
1 360V 3 phase output
6500 peak watts
6000 watts normal.

From £175
Anyone tried one?

they look like a lot of the cheaper re branded gennys with Honda clone engines
I like the price £8.75 per kg lol

6.5KW from 6.5Hp! You have to admire the hopelessly over optimistic power outputs they clame on these generators.

Gone off the idea now as each 240v output is limited to 2000w, no good for welding unless you have a 3 phase welder.

6.5KW from 6.5Hp! You have to admire the hopelessly over optimistic power outputs they clame on these generators.
