400 Watt Mini Portable
YM400
Certainly the Smallest but Simple and Reliable this is no toy.
Unfortunately the YM400 is currently out of stock pending a new model being developed. If you are interested in this sort of unit please complete the Inquiry form for details.
This is really a mighty little unit. Weighing only 6kg it can be taken anywhere.
With up to 400Watts (25Amps at 15V) of regulated charging current.
It can also power 12V DC loads directly due to the permanent magnet alternator being fully self exciting.
Yes it's a 2 stroke engine and in this case that means simplicity and lightness.
Please note that the DC outputs of this machine are at Full Capacity unlike the low wattage auxilliary DC outputs often provided with AC generator sets.
If charging batteries consult the battery manufacturer's recommendations on charging voltage and current. This unit does not incorporate multi step voltage levels.
The YM400 is the worlds smallest DC generator and ideally suited for extended travel situations where you use DC power from batteries.
Typically in a camping situation you would run the generator once a day to replace lost charge in your batteries. Idealy this could be while you are away having a swim (or whatever) so it's running does not annoy you. Unlike AC generators it is not necessary to have it running at the time you want to use the power.
The output of 20Amps at 12V would typically bring a large car battery up to full charge on one tank of fuel after a night's usage.
