Product Q&A

Can this generator run a welder?
Hi John, an 8kVA conventional generator like this model is a good size to run a standard stick welder up to around 180amp.
When you start going above that in terms of welder sizing, you may need a bigger generator. We always recommend that you contact the manufacturer of your welder (e.g. Unimig, Cigweld etc.) and ask their advice on what size generator they would advise for your particular make and model of welder. In our experience, the technical departments of the leading welding manufacturers are very helpful in advising the best generator size for their welder models.
Many thanks.

What is the power output wave form? Pure sine wave, modified sine wave?
Hi Jeff, this is a conventional generator using a brushless alternator that produces a power output with harmonic distortion of +/- 5%.
A conventional generator is designed to run appliances with resistive and heavy loads, e.g. power tools, farming equipment, domestic applainces without microprocessors. Conventional generators can handle 'overloading' for short periods, where an appliance will surge (usually when starting up) briefly. However, conventional generators are not intended to run sensitive electronic equipment (e.g. TV's, laptops, mobile phones etc.). Conventional generators are built tough and are popular for trade, construction, farming, industrial use, plus certain domestic requirements.
The type of generator that produces pure sine wave output is an inverter generator. An inverter generator can run sensitive electronic equipment. Note that Inverter generators cannot handle large 'overloading' that conventional generators can. Too much overload on an inverter generator will cause the generator 'trip the breaker' and stop producing power. These inverter generators are quiet, fuel efficient and are designed for recreational use, small home backup, DIY tasks, small mobile business and small events.
Finally, its worth mentioning AVR Generators. This type of generator has an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) fitted, so they reduce large voltage fluctuations that can potentially damage appliances. These types of generators are commonly used for Domestic backup applications and small business backup requirements.

Can I use this generator to charge my power tool batteries?
Hi there,
Charging battery packs is fine from a conventional generator, we'd recommend having a steady load on the generator and don't connect appliances that will cause the load to jump around during charging.
Thanks.
