Petrol Generator 2.8kVA 4 Stroke 230V Electric Start AVR

A 2.8kVA portable petrol generator built to provide power where mains supply is not available or cannot be relied on. It uses a single cylinder, 4 stroke, air cooled engine and includes both electric and recoil start, making it a practical option for general site use, outdoor jobs and backup power around the home or workshop.

Used for temporary power in garages, workshops, site work and home maintenance, this petrol electric generator suits a wide range of everyday tasks. It can be used for running 230V or 115V equipment where stable output matters, whether for repair work, servicing, outdoor projects or keeping essential power available during interruptions. For tradespeople, property maintenance and DIY users, it gives a straightforward way to keep tools or equipment running away from fixed power sources.

The AVR alternator helps provide stable voltage and current, which is useful when powering equipment that benefits from a more consistent supply. A 210cc 6.5HP engine, 13L fuel tank and single phase output make it suitable for repeated use across regular maintenance jobs and mobile work. The compact structure and lighter overall build help with positioning and transport, while the oil alert system adds an extra layer of reassurance during routine use. Having both electric ignition and recoil start also gives a practical backup if one starting method is less convenient on the day.
