Upgraded to a bigger generator
Had a 3500W generator for years and purchased the G12KBN model on a Black Friday sale. Got it setup and tested it by using propane. It started with no issues. The noise level sounds the same as my 3500W generator. Now I’ll be ready for the next power outage.
Work horse
three hurricanes and no power for approx. 1 week for each. unit is very easy to move out of garage and hook-up to electric panel. very easy on gas. gas gauge needs help. not at all accurate. used a “dip stick” 1/2 dowel with etched marks on it. i am 79 years old and not very agile anymore but had no trouble moving the unit. very well balanced.
Voltaje
Me preocupa que compre esta planta.vivo en cuba u esta trabajando con voltaje por encima de 110/160 y en el caso de la 220 trabaja a 290.de que manera se puede regular ese voltaje? Ya se daño mi refrigerador. Gracias
SC homeowner happy with generator
I bought this generator not long after buying my first house. It has been extremely reliable. It is very fuel efficient and easy to use. Will run almost my entire house. Love it and have recommended to family and friends multiple times.
My only issue with it is how difficult it is to drain the gas tank if there is gas left after finishing using it.
TX Homeowner sure Happy with his Pulsar!!
3 years ago we had a massive freeze in TX that took out our power for a few days. My wife said she would NEVER go through that again. She said she wanted to purchase a generator, naturally she was pushing me toward a huge $25-$30 Grand model, which we did NOT have the budget for. I asked her to allow me to do some research. Ultimately, I chose this model. I had an electrician install an inlet into my home and kept it primed and ready for 3 years, 2 weeks ago Houston got hit by Hurricane Byrle and our neighborhood was out of electricity for 6 days. NOT US!!! I finally got to use this bad boy and let me tell you it was an ABSOLUTLE WORKHORSE and LIFESAVER!!! This unit powered my entire home including all lights, fans, tv Central A/C and 2 refrigerators. This generator literally saved my family, including my 3 year old daughter and 79 year old Mother. I want to personally thank the great folks at Pulsar for making such a dependable piece of machinery. You should feel wonderful about your job as you really are in the business of saving lives! From the engineers to the line men that put them together at the factory and everyone in between. THANK YOU!!
