New little generator manufacturer
« on: May 07, 2023, 07:24:01 pm »
Found this little generator while browsing AliExpress. Seems pretty well made, but a bit more expensive than I care to jump for. Thought someone may be interested, there are 2 versions, with one having bearing stands and the other with them attached to the core.

I have one I bought on Black Friday 2023 . I just used it this afternoon, and it really puts out the power . It is even better than my P M Research generator , and really looks good too.

What is the cost in USD?

I like the industrial look, but it's not a bargain price. I got it down to $131.22 through some discount checker, still not enough discount for me to buy it.

That does look very "Industrial", but I'll have to agree with Bruce, not quite in my budget at that price point.

That is very nice looking but in this day of CNC machining you would think the price would be less than half of that.

They are expensive but , when a Jensen 15 generator costs 150.00 , that price is not out of line . It is also a D C generator , and works well with LED's and incandescent bulbs . I have both makes , plus a P M Research generator , and this one definitely produces the most power at lower RPM's .

Now the price is $118.97.  Hmmm, maybe it will go lower.

Good looking little generator.  Just ordered one for $48.38 which is a lot better than the initial pricing and makes it a lot more desirable.  Now just hope it shows up.
Regards,
Larry
