Generators are going cheap these days.

My dad pitched up at home last night with a gift in the form of a collection slip from Builders Warehouse for a 5.5kva 4 stroke generator - r2999.00. I remember not a year ago when the little 700w ones were going for more than a grand.

Supply and demand...
I want a 20kva silent genny.

Aint that the truth.

I haven't started mine up yet but I doubt it will be anything close to silent.

Ja, they have an overstock ... incorrectly anticipated the need for generators.

Now they need to get rid of old stock... a good time to buy a genny.

And it's a good suggestion to use it once in a while to keep everything oiled and primed.
