Is there anyone with any experience or information on the Kipor IG series of portable generator? They appear much cheaper than the Honda yet have a similar spec - other than the noise is a couple of db's higher for the 2600. The sales info states that they are the inverter type and are suitable for use with computors and other sensitive electrical items.
Have had a Kipor KGE3000 for a couple of years and no problems except the smart throttle does not always follow larger loads. Pretty good on fuel as well.
Waveform is pretty close to a 50 Hertz sine wave with no bad harmonics , so suitable for electronic equipment as well as motorhomes. Use mine as primary power source for Valve based RF power ampifiers while out in the wild away from mains supplies.
As has been said they are a Chinese copy of the Honda, and seem to remember there was something about them infringing Honda copyright.
Looks like China is doing to the Japanese, what the Japanese did to others.

Hi Nigel,
When you say power is not so good - what do you mean exactly - that the power fluctuates, doesn't deliver what it says it should ?
Martin - thanks for your comments - I didn't know it was Chinese (not that that would be a problem - if the spares/service was ok) On the KGE3000, what is the noise level like in comparisson to other brands?
There is a company on the Internet selling the IG2600 (yellow case) for £350 - has anyone seen them cheaper?
Don't forget that a decibel is a logarithmic expression so what might seem to be just a small increase (2) is actually a lot higher than that in perceived noise.

Hi.
After asking a similar question I bit the bullet and bought a HondaEU2i, it may be helpful to read here..
Just a bit off the track but has anyone used the Telair 2500B generator. They normally retail for around £3K fitted however there is a Belgium company got them on special offer for £1471 including VAT They are out of my league just now but are they worth saving up for?
