Hyundai HY2000Si 2000w Inverter Generator

The HY2000Si puts out 1600W rated continuous power and 2000W surge, which is plenty for a campsite or worksite. It'll comfortably run a 12V fridge, LED lights, phone and laptop chargers, a CPAP machine, and most power tools that don't have a heavy startup draw. It outputs pure sine wave power, so it's safe for sensitive electronics like laptops and cameras. For bigger loads like air conditioners or large compressors, you'd need something with more grunt.

With its 3.8L petrol tank, the HY2000Si can run up to 8 hours. Flick it into ECO mode and it'll throttle back the engine when the load is light, which stretches that runtime out and keeps noise down - handy when you're trying to sleep in the tent.

It weighs 21kg dry, which is on the manageable side for a compact inverter generator. Most blokes can lift it in and out of a ute tray or 4WD boot without too much grief. Dimensions are 510mm long x 270mm wide x 450mm high, so it fits neatly in most storage setups.

Noise is rated at 58dB at 7 metres - about the level of a normal conversation. That's quiet enough for most campsites and caravan parks without disturbing the neighbours. In ECO mode it runs even quieter when the load drops off.

It comes with a 2-year manufacturer warranty from Hyundai Generators. We also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee if it's not what you need. We ship Australia-wide and the delivery is free.

In the box you get the generator unit, 12V charging cables, an oil filling bottle, engine oil, spark plug spanner, screwdriver, and the instruction manual. It runs on regular unleaded petrol - no mixing required - so you're ready to go once you top it up with fuel and oil.
