Chinese generators

[petehoehill]

As anyone had any experience or knowledge of these 5-7 KVA super silent diesel generators that appear on E-bay?
I am thinking of buying one, but not sure how good they are.
They are about £800 including delivery.
one old boating sage told me they are ok, but i am not sure.

They are ok but there is a wee problem with them unless you like making your own spare parts.
