What is AVR?
AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator)
Electronic equipment such as laptops or televisions could fail if the electricity quality is not high enough. High quality smooth power is achieved with AVR technology maintaining a constant output voltage, compensating for fluctuations when the equipment starts up or the load changes. This helps provide a stable power source vital for running sensitive electronic devices safely.
There is one small caveat to to changing the generator to AVR option, it reduces the maximum output of the generator by around 5-10%
Why should I choose a LPG Dual Fuel option instead of petrol or diesel?
An LPG dual fuel option refers to the conversion of petrol engine to run on either LPG or petrol. Petrol engines weigh less, produce lower emissions and are inexpensive to purchase, in comparison to diesel engines. Although, they have much higher running costs. Diesels are more fuel efficient, but weigh more, produce much greater emissions and are comparitively more expensive to purchase.
LPG essentially enables the user to purchase a lower costing, lighter, lower emission petrol engine and also have the low running costs of a diesel. Advantages include;
•Up to 50% reduction in running costs in comparison to petrol
•60% lower CO2 emissions in comparison to petrol allows a more environmentally friendly operation.
•Due to the lower carbon content of LPG, consumables such as spark plugs and oil have extended life.
•Running times can be extended with the use of larger LPG bottles.
•Safer to use, as LPG avoids the hazard of having to refill a hot engine with highly flammable fuel.
•An LPG conversion means there is no danger of fuel contamination or fuel going stale in the carburettor, a common problem with petrol.
•Re-fuelling is made easier, as the user simply needs to re-connect a new cylinder bottle
