Review: Not fit for purpose - Absolutely not fit for purpose. Noisey, lasted 3 months one single house build before bearings went on engine. Tried to blame not being serviced every 100 hours (2 weeks) after a lot of hassle they repaired it only to come back even noisier.
Review: Does what it says on the tin! - I'm a big fan of honda generators. Particularly the inverter series. However, needing something with a larger power output and longer runtime with diesel i looked at this model. It is now installed in a custom built shed and controlled by an ATS and so far works perfectly. Noise wise then yes if you stand next to it then its very noisy. 25+m away and its barely audible. Ok for me with large property but may annoy neighbors in for eg a terrice location.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long does this run for on a tank full please?**
A: With the best will in the world I would not agree that this will run for 30 hours. Just running a few lights well perhaps but in a normal household environment with the boiler and the odd kettle of tea I'd suggest that 16 to 20 hours would be more reasonable. It's rather like the advertised fuel consumption on a car, it might give that in ideal circumstances ( and with the steering wheel set straight ;-) but in your home? I don't agree!

**Q: Is this generator plant capable of running an aircondition units ?**
A: Hi ...basically it depends on the size of the aircon unit. Find out the wattage required to run the unit and I can tell you.

**Q: I need a stby genyr for odd time power fails to run fridge freezer kettle and lights plus 5V charging for phone, tabletpc is this overkill**
A: a kettle uses 3KV so no, not overkill

**Q: where can I buy the remote controls for this..?**
A: We offer the remote although you would need to contact us during office hours to discuss further as we would need clarification on a few issues Abbey Access.

### ⭐ Not fit for purpose

Absolutely not fit for purpose. Noisey, lasted 3 months one single house build before bearings went on engine. Tried to blame not being serviced every 100 hours (2 weeks) after a lot of hassle they repaired it only to come back even noisier.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does what it says on the tin!
*by A***Y on 2 January 2016*

It is now installed in a custom built shed and controlled by an ATS and so far works perfectly. Noise wise then yes if you stand next to it then its very noisy. 25+m away and its barely audible.

### ⭐ Avoid
*by J***Y on 13 February 2024*

Nothing but problems a week after purchase, in a little over 12 months (thats how long you get a warrantee for!) it has stopped working 8 times, we have replaced 3 x AVRs, 2 x cooling fans and now the air filter has disintegrated and destroyed the engine and it only has 300 hours showing. Main UK dealer as much use as the air filter! My advice….. spend a bit more on something better and save money and hassle in the long run
