FAQ
1. Difference between gasoline and diesel generators?
Gasoline generators are fuelled by petrol or octane, while diesel generators run on diesel alone. Gasoline generators are portable in nature, while diesel generators are not. Although gasoline generators are more eco-friendly, diesel generators have the advantage of producing very low noise (decibel) levels.
2. Can gasoline generators run on gas?
Simple answer is no. Gasoline generators use petrol or octane as running fuel. Extra mechanisms are required to make it run on gas but very ill-advised, as it is harmful for the engine and reduces its productive life.
3. Generator fuel types?
Gasoline generators run on petrol or octane. Diesel generators run on diesel alone.
4. How many hours can I run my generator continuously?
Every generator has its own running limit. A general rule of thumb is to let the generator rest for 1 hour after every 3-4 hours of consistent use.
5. Why is the HG series more expensive than the LG series?
The HG series gasoline generators are built with Original HONDA engines, which are imported from Japan and assembled in China. The quality of this product is equivalent to Honda generators themselves, boasting greater reliability, which justifies a higher price.
