WHAT APPLIANCES CAN THE SUMEC FIRMAN SPG3000 WITH WHEELS GENERATOR RUN?

The Sumec Firman SPG3000 with wheels generator can power most home appliances such as;

However, the SPG3000 with wheels generator can power only one 1.1HP, or just one 1.6HP or one 2.2HP Firman Inverter AC under the normal link mode.

 

THIS GENERATOR IS TOO SMALL FOR ME. WHAT IS THE NEXT LARGER SIZE?

Suppose the SPG3000 with wheels generator is too small for you. Consider getting a 3.0 KVA or a 3.5KVA generator, such as the ECO4990ES, ECO5990ES, SPG3800E2, SPG4000E2, FPG4800E2 and AC6000E2. These are common choices for those interested in having a more extensive coil. Also, a 3.0KVA or 3.5KVA generator can simultaneously power a 2500W pressing iron, a 1HP non-inverter AC, a 1.5HP inverter AC, and a fridge and freezer with a few extra light bulbs and fans.

 

WHICH GENERATORS THAT ARE SLIGHTLY SMALLER SHOULD I CONSIDER?

The generators smaller than the 2.5KVA generators are the 2.0KVA. The options available under the 2.0KVA generators include SPG2500, SPG2900,  FPG2800E2 and RD2910. They can power essential home appliances like light bulbs, fans, television, and three Firman 1.1HP Inverter ACs under the gen link mode or two Firman 1.6HP Inverter ACs under the gen link mode without other appliances.

IS THERE ANY COMMON MYTH ABOUT THE SUMEC FIRMAN SPG3000 WITH WHEELS GENERATOR?

Yes, there is! The most common myth is that it is a 2.9KVA or even a 3.0KVA generator because the model number is 3000. The truth is that it's a 2.5KVA rated generator. Although, it is a common myth in the market and on other websites like Jumia or Konga. Please do not fall for it and overload your generator.
