    Hurricane Beryl with Mep 802 and Light tower back up.

    So LED lights would work fine when there was no change in load? Thats good to know!

    Yeah, I would check the oil the very least every few days at minimum if I had an aircooled (Spoiler, I wouldn't own an air cooled)

    I guess I'll share some generator Beryl pics, just to pay it forward. I know we all love seeing hurricane power outage pics (Or, am I just weird?) 6 days and 6 hours on generator power until utility came back. Generator has a Mitsubishi 4G64 2.4L I4 engine, ran great Started with 24...

    Under 3000, seems very good condition but no paperwork available that I know of Light towers around here usually have 15K+ hours

    Do I pull the trigger for $1500 if I can talk the guy into that price?

    I'm glad I found this thread! I am looking at an almost identical unit for $1500. Would you pull the trigger? I was worried about the power quality out of the Pancake generator end, and this thread confirmed what I was suspecting. Did you ever figure out a way to add some kind of AVR? We are in...

    Choosing a Generator

    Good thinking about the fuel storage, that must be the reason as there are plenty of 1800 RPM Natural gas units What I say I'll do and what I actually do are always changing :p I probably won't pour a slab, I think a trailer or cart is something that makes sense

    Choosing a Generator

    It won't be something I'd move often, but part of my want of a reliable genset is that we plan on buying land in the future, and of course we would need a genset. The Kubota could "easily" be put in my truck, and an MEP on a trailer could also be "easily" moved there I do wonder, why is there...

    Choosing a Generator

    Actually, one mounted on a trailer with a 100 gallon fuel tank and pump so I can move the fuel, would be awesome

    Choosing a Generator

    Yeah, a 1040 or an 803A would be ideal The downside is they are not really portable at all unless I mount one to a small trailer (The military trailer is a bit big!)

    Choosing a Generator

    I ended up listing in on Marketplace for $850 and got endless messages, sold it same day to a guy who has an identical unit with a dead generator end So I get a free hoist and D rings etc, and a good profit, and I got to play with one!
