Which generator to buy

[Doing it for the kids]

Need to buy a few 3 phase gennies PDQ.

probably 25 - 80 KVA range.

seems to be lots out there (all in stock which i will check on!) but any recommendations welcome.

going to need them for 3-4 months so not worth hiring.

obviously need a fuel tank with lots of white in as well...

Quite like my JCB G41QS - Kohler engine & Mecc Alte alternator. Built in tank with option for external feed.

good luck finding one - i was told buy a tenant yesterday everything was sold put and no hires available when he enquired as a lot of people are getting worried about potential energy rationing !

we have a CAT 200kva - can’t recommend it however as it eats controls panels for fun

Cummins & Pramac 65kva 3ph used as std-by only, so no hard use to speak of. Fine though, fitted and nearly forgotten
About £10k now

I’m surprised how little the price differential is.

Purchase price is less than a months fuel

It is a crazy time now, that is for sure.

Slightly related but looking for either generators or water pump type units with a running engine, radiator etc. Pump nor generator needs to work as we’re looking for units to be used as training rigs. We just need units with running engines, cooling sytem, guards, fuel tank and control panel that have ideally fork sockets underneath. Can anyone recomment a company that would have similar units, have not enquired much yet.
