(1) Wonder if the extra 10 will cause Keiths clocks to run faster cheating him out of 12 minutes of his life per hour?

(2) KayWhy?, is that a new power unit or a typo!

Experience is a wonderful thing. It helps you recognise a mistake when repeated.

It might be to do with the "stopping for the chicks" thing.[emoji12]

Chicks definitely for Tanks!!
If you look at the PDF I linked to you can see KY refers to the model.
I had trouble finding the 4KW model in 50htz ...........
Probably should have looked for the Au version somewhere but I think it's 'close enough'? lol

The hondas and kipors actually produce a better wave form. Ours is rates at 3600w, and wont run the battery charger properly unless the air con is on and loaded up.
The push button internal start is great though and its quiet enough that we can sleep with it running if needed

Martin what did you end up doing with your original Onan?
Do you have a Kipor now?

Bruce, we left it as part exchange on a near new onan. The Unit we got was 18 months old with 70 hrs on it. Came out of a winnebago, because it wouldnt run their washing machine. We really only have it to run the battery charger and cover for heating and cooling extended runs ie over 4 hrs. The batteries take care of the rest. I think we have put 40 hrs on it in a year. The inverter does it all so much better!
We debated a cheaper genny, but the better half wanted something easy to use. Who was I to argue!
