Questions people ask us
Straight answers about choosing, paying, delivery and warranty. Still not sure? A real person will help you.
Choosing
What size of gen do I need?
Think about what you want to run at the same time. Bulbs, fans and TV: 1–2.5 kVA. Add a fridge or freezer: 3–5 kVA. One or two ACs or a pumping machine: 6–10 kVA. Offices and clinics: 10–20 kVA. Our power calculator adds it up for you, including the extra kick a fridge or AC needs to start. See the guide How to choose the right size.
Petrol or diesel?
Petrol gens are cheaper to buy and good for homes and shops up to about 10 kVA. Diesel gens cost more but use less fuel per hour and last longer — best if the gen runs many hours every day, or you need more than 10 kVA. More in Petrol vs diesel.
What is an inverter generator?
A small, quiet generator with clean, stable power — good for laptops, TVs and phones. It usually costs more per kVA than an open-frame gen. See Inverter or conventional?
What is an ATS and do I need one?
An ATS (automatic transfer switch) switches your house or office from the grid to the generator by itself when light goes, and back when it returns. It makes sense for key-start or standby generators, especially 10 kVA and above. See What is an ATS?
Products
Are your generators original?
Yes. We sell only brand-new, original generators in the manufacturer's box, with manual and accessories. See how to check an original generator — you can check it yourself on delivery.
Why are some big generators “available to order”?
Large sets (20 kVA and above, and big diesels) are not kept on a shelf. After you order, we confirm stock, the delivery date and the delivery price with you within 2 hours — before you pay.
How long is the warranty?
Every generator has a warranty. The period depends on the brand and model and is shown on each product page — most are 12 months. It covers factory faults: we repair or replace. See Warranty & service.
Payment
Is it safe to pay before delivery?
We send payment details when we confirm your order. Before you pay, we call you to confirm stock and the delivery date. Every order has its own number and tracking page, we start the generator in front of you on delivery, and if it does not match your order you get your money back (see Returns).
How do I pay by bank transfer?
Place your order. We call you to confirm it and send the payment details — they also appear on your order page. Transfer from your bank app, use your order number as the reference and tap “I've paid”. We confirm and prepare your delivery.
How do I get 10% off with crypto?
At checkout choose “Crypto (USDT / USDC)”. The 10% comes off your total straight away. You pay on a secure crypto payment page — if the link is not ready at once, we send it to you within 15 minutes and it also shows on your order page.
Can I use WELCOME5 and the crypto discount together?
Yes. WELCOME5 takes 5% off your first order, then paying with crypto takes another 10% off.
Do you offer pay on delivery?
No. You pay by bank transfer or by crypto after we confirm your order. That is why we confirm stock and the date with you first, and why every order has its own tracking page.
Delivery
How fast is delivery?
For generators up to 20 kVA: Lagos 1–2 working days, Abuja and Port Harcourt 2–4 working days, other states 3–7 working days. Bigger sets come by truck — we agree the date and price with you. See Delivery.
Can I pick up my generator?
Yes — free pickup in Lagos. Choose “Pickup in Lagos” at checkout. We send the pickup address in Lagos when we confirm your order. We start the generator with you before you take it.
Do you start the generator on delivery?
Yes. We unbox with you, add oil and fuel and start the generator so you see it working before you sign the delivery note.
Can you install it?
Yes. Our engineers can install your generator and an ATS. The price depends on the job and is agreed with you before any work starts.
After the sale
What if the gen has a problem?
Contact us with your order number and, if you can, a short video. If it is a factory fault covered by the warranty, we repair or replace it.
Can I return a generator?
If it is damaged or not the model you ordered, tell us within 7 days of delivery and we replace it or refund you. Unused items in unopened packaging can also be returned within 7 days. See Returns.
How do I track my order?
Open Track your order and enter your order number with your email or phone number.
How often should I service my generator?
Change the oil after the first 20 or so running hours, then every 50–100 hours depending on the model — your manual gives the exact interval. See our maintenance guide.
