Senwei 4.5kva Manual Generator -SV6200 – Specs Review and Price

senwei 4.5 kva manual start

Our Take: There is no doubt that Senwei is gradually becoming a popular name for in the generator business in Nigeria. The gradual acceptance may point to some reliability of the brand. This particular generator boasts of 4.5KVA starting capacity though the running capacity is  4.2kva, we always based our reviews on the running capacity. This generator like others in its class is a single-phase generator, meaning it will generate just one positive output line; don’t worry except you have a factory in your flat, this is mostly adequate. Using the 220v used in Nigeria, this generator is capable of supplying about 19A.

 

In terms of load, 18A roughly translates to one 40-inch TV, 6 power saving bulbs, one 1-HP AC(preferable an inverter AC, else make sure you put this on first and make sure the compressor starts working before putting on the refrigerator), one 200L refrigerator and other smaller appliances like your chargers and laptop; this will get your generator to about 65% capacity. Note the running your generator at the full capacity continuously will reduce the life span, increase the frequency of required service, and increase fuel consumption. A 15L tank should run for at least 10 hours at 50% load.

The fact that it does not comes with tires was the reason it was rated a little lower for Features.  The recoil(manual) start is the way to start this generator. You can check the version with tires and key start here. The generator also has a socket to charge your car battery.

I will definitely recommend this 4.5kva Senwei generator for a sizeable household; the capacity should be enough. Just make sure your buy at a reliable seller to make sure you are buying the original.
