You can't forbid living beautifully

The ITC Power GG9i generator is a miniature and very light equipment (it weighs only 9.3 kg - just a "fluff" by the standards of such devices). Typically, design is not a priority for power plants (many manufacturers do not fool themselves with such things, releasing the most faceless generator sets on the market with an unassuming appearance). But in this case, ITC Power did their best and made an elegant case with graceful contours for the generator. It has not only an aesthetic, but also a utilitarian function, as it is a soundproof casing that absorbs sounds produced by the parts and mechanisms of a mini-power plant. As a result, the noise (at a distance of 7 m from the working device) does not exceed 58 dB - this is quieter than the volume of a normal conversation. Therefore, the ITC Power GG9i generator is considered to be very quiet.

A quick look at the structure

Inside the case are a four-stroke gasoline engine (1.4 hp) and an inverter alternator responsible for the production of electric current. Thanks to inverter technology, the unit generates a current with a "correct sine wave", the characteristics of which always correspond to the nameplate (230 V, 50 Hz), even with a "jumping" load. This is extremely important if you plan to use the generator to ensure autonomous operation of “capricious” equipment, such as gas or solid fuel boilers with modern automation, as well as powering consumer electronics, such as a computer or TV. To connect consumers, there are: one 230 V socket, a 12 V DC connector and a USB port. The front panel of the device also has connectors for parallel connection (having a pair of generators, cables and a special device that is sold separately, you can combine two power plants into a single system to work on a common load).

Analogues and equivalents

Exactly the same generators can be found on sale under other names: Black & Decker BXGNI900E, Hyundai HY900Si or Weekender GS950i. All of them are produced at the same plant (one of the subsidiaries of ITC Power) and practically do not differ from each other except for color. But, since Black & Decker and Hyundai generators are more famous and "hyped", online stores ask for a little more for them than for analogues from ITC Power.
