Hyundai HY1000Si Recreational Leisure Generator

This redesigned model has a slimmer case which allows you to store it in your car boot or caravan cupboard, as well as a molded handle which makes it easy to carry with a lightweight design of just 14kg. This smaller case is made possible due to the compact inverter board which is brand new for Hyundai inverter generators. It also features a full digital display which makes it easy to monitor the performance of the generator, including the voltage, frequency and hour count.

Powered by a 50cc 4-stroke easy start, recoil pull Hyundai petrol engine, the HY1000Si produces 1000w / 1kW and is more than capable of powering televisions, small air compressors for inflatable beds, electric heaters, laptops, lights, etc. The control panel features a 230v socket for use with any appliance which uses a standard 3-pin 13A UK mains plug, as well as a 12v DC battery charging outlet, so it’s ideal for a variety of uses. Producing a pure sinewave output, it can safely power all sensitive electronics without risk of damaging or overloading them.

This inverter generator is extremely popular for powering family holidays, and it’s built to be user-friendly with low maintenance requirements. Digital overload protection will shut the generator down should the load pass the maximum threshold, and low oil shutdown also turns off the generator should the oil levels drop too far.

Already an economical generator, the HY1000Si also has the added benefit of an “ECO” mode which, when selected, will lower the engine revs to match only the load being applied, which in turn increases the fuel economy, lowers the noise produced and extends the lifespan of the engine.
