12,000 WATTS G12KBN
I have had this for about 2 years. I run it about every 4 months for 2 hours. The only thing I’ve done is to change the oil to synthetic. The battery will hold a charge for at least 4 months. Spend the extra money to install a 50 amp plug and a loc-out switch.
Generator not starting
I purchased this generator in July of 2023. When I first bought it, it would not start for weeks. Then it finally started and I used it a couple times now it will not make a sound like it has a short because it starts when it wants to. I have a food trailer and been losing out on money because my generation make a sound.
Manual says to use 30 amp power
I will give a 5 for now because I have not used it yet. The generator has a 50 amp plug and a 30. Shouldn’t I use a 50? The manual doesn’t tell me what cord to buy. Maybe I missed it. It also says I need to ground the generator at all times. I thought new generators did not have to be grounded when plugging into the house. Any help is much appreciated.
Pulsar 12000KBN
I live in South Texas, Corpus Christi, and we have Hurricanes ever now and then and I been wanting a gen, set for a while, and I finally got one, Pulsar G12KBN.
Boy what a buy,,, Dual fuel Etc,, but I made it a triple fuel!!! I got me a “DEMAND” regulator so I could also use Natural Gas… I know it want put out as much elect. but that’s OK also .. We have changed our lights to Daylight 60 watt equivalent led’s.. I don’t intend to ever use gasoline in this thing unless I have to take it somewhere!! Go to Nash Fuel store if you want a demand regulator to use N/G.Or just do a search for them. Try to get one with a “Purge” button so you can push the air out of the lines before starting. You will get how it works when you can play with it a bit.. Good luck– Phil
Great Gen for,the money
I don’t see what some customers are bitching about. Look if you have carb problems your letting your fuel sit in the system to long also stay away from ethanol fuel you morons. I run my at least once a month also added fuel stabilizer to the system. And because if you might have a fuel issue buy a extra carb. This only makes seance. I had to run my house for 6 hrs had almost everything on ran like a dream and the rest of the neighbor hood had no power. I only wieh pulsair would make an inverter unit at this size so you could run 18k.
