Solar Powered Generators

You are looking at the all new 2011 4th generation variable engine speed Magna 3000 Watt digital inverter generator in attractive red color. It is very similar to Honda EU2000i but with more power. It is light weight, quiet, and portable. It has a built-in 30 AMP (TT-30R) standard RV receptacle. You don't need any adapter or loss of power for RV connection. It is brand new in box and in stock ready to ship. It is also the most powerful portable inverter generator and with pure sinewave output. This generator is save for sensitive electronics like personal computer and communications devices. Magna generators are state-of-the-art power generators. They are small, efficient and quiet operation, these generators will run longer and cost you less while providing the best power output in the industry. It had been selling in Europe and Asia for a while in the 220V market. It has the extra wattage to power some of the newer ultra efficient RV AC, it is the best portable generator on the market for 5th wheels and travel trailers. Tested on smaller 18' to 24' RV's - We ran some tests on 5th wheels and travel trailers. This Magna 3000 Watt can handle most of the newer 13,500 BTU rooftop RV AC units.

The manual was fun to read with the descriptions appearing to be computer translated from Chinese. The generator feels a little tight when starting but a few pumps to the primer bulb seemed to do the trick and it started right up. I used it the first weekend I got it to power my rv, especially the AC unit. It would start the AC if everything else is turned off at the breaker panel and my AC unit was vented for "waterfall". (My deep cycle battery was very low and the converter had to be turned off.) I ran it HARD for two days in a Tennessee field, temps 96 degrees F and 60% humidity, after starting the AC I turned the breakers back on to everything but the microwave (I didn't want to risk it or produce any heat inside the RV). I ran it 6-8 hours a day for two days with no problems. Make sure you don't push the choke handle back too far, it will get stuck behind the rear cover. It used about 50cc of oil during tha first weekend. this was enough to make it more sensitive to it's being out of level causing the low oil condition to shut it off. ALWAYS BRING THE SPECIAL OIL DISPENER WITH YOU! The unit ran well during the weekend and if the AC was to finally shutdown, always after dark, we could watch tv and dvd player with plenty of 12 volts items (3 lights, 2 fans, stereo playing to the outside) and the generator would idle down very low and make very little sound. 41 of 42 people found the following review helpful. Magna 3000 Review By Clint C The first Generator I received was defective - motor would not run consistently. The support concerning this matter was outstanding. The second generator arrived the day of my vacation. It performed as intended, but the Magna 3000W gen will not handle even a newer, 2004 13.2 Unit. with Hard Start installed. So be aware the claims made are somewhat mis-leading per my experience. Overall the unit is cheaper than the Honda EU2000 and appears to be a good choice for the basic RV uses. It's compact and quiet. The lack of a parallel kit option is something to consider if you quest full RV capability. One annoyance is once the over-load trips the only way to re-set the unit output is to shut it off. 27 of 27 people found the following review helpful. So far so good! By David C. Martin First off this unit REQUIRES ALCOHOL FREE GAS!! This can sometimes be hard to find, and with time your only outlet might be marinas. To protect your investment get a dedicated gas can for your generator and mark it . Thanks to my fellow reviewers. I would not have bought this unit without your sage advice. Also Exciting Products did a good job with price, handling and prompt delivery. Now to the product. Overall construction is good. I did a quick nut, bolt screw tightness test and found no problems. The choke lever will get pushed under the cover if you are not careful. Oiling up is not much of a problem. Just measure out .9 liters to start with and remember the dip stick is read after holding it in the fill hold...not screwed in. I did some comparing to the honda 2000 on engine size and it appears the Magna has plenty of engine to meet the generator needs. The Econo setting is great ffor low steady loads. Really holds the noise down. With all due respect to my neighbor in Monteagle, the manual is well written and goes into more details than the honda 2000's. A lot of detail on output is included. I wish the full explanation of output was included in the product writeup. Bottom line, for purely resistive loads this unit will produce 3000 watts for 30 minutes and run continuously at 2700 VA. What is confusing it that the manual also states that the AC output at unity pf is 2500 W. Last time I checked VA = Watts at unity (1.0)power factor . So what gives?? As for starting air conditioner with induction motors, I can't help. I
