I'm still in the process of reading this whole thread pero ill post na muna my questions and just edit later if nasagot na sya sa ibang post na mababasa ko.
Anyway, I'm looking for a genset that can power a 2HP aircon, 10 lights, 4 electric fan, 1 TV, 1 computer, modem/router. There will be times na I will turn off the aircon so that I can plug 2x refrigerators (22cu-inverter type auto defrost and 14cu-manual defrost).
As of now, my best bet is the Honda EG6500CXS (5.5kva nominal/6.5kva max) pero medyo namamahalan ako (P81,000+)
I tried looking at Ace Hardware and they have the following brands:
- Navigator NPG8500E2- 6.5k watts nominal / 7.5k watts max (don't know the dbA) - P50k price
- Promate
Sa MC Home depot / Wilcon website they have this:
Kipor KGE6500X - 5.5Kva nominal / 6.5Kva max 74dbA (P70k price)
Promate 8800ES - 7000watts nominal / 8800 watts max 72dbA (P70k price)
Sa Sulit/OLX merong Elemax (powered by Honda) generator. Ok din ba eto compared to the original Honda genset? Mas mura kasi eto ng konti.
I've read somewhere about coleman powermate / kubota / robin. ok din ba eto?
I've also read na may mga China brands. Ano bang mga top quality China brands that you can recommend?
Available din ba yung mga Honda/Nagivator/Promate/etc sa Quiapo area? Malaki ba price difference? Hirap kasi sa Quiapo baka used na yung ibenta sakin.
Also, I don't really know if I should invest this much on a generator since gagamitin lang naman eto mga 1x to 3x a year pag nag brown out due to typhoon and such. Would buying a China generator be good enough or should I go with the branded japan/USA gens? Sana tumagal eto ng mga 10yrs. Kaya ba ng China gens eto?
FYI, I'm particular with the price as well as the noise level. Ayoko kasing maka distorbo ng neighbor. Maingay naba ang 74dbA relatively for a genset? May nabasa kasi akong ibang genset nasa 80 to 90+ ang dbA. Also, are the gensets i've mentioned above the "closed type" gensets ive been reading? Or eto pa yung open type?
