I copied the following from an eBay auction for a Boliy Pro3600SI:

You are looking at the new Boliy Digital Inverter generator that output 3,300 maximum and 3,000W continuous. It is brand new in box and in stock ready to ship.

Boliy Pro3600SI is a true Digital Signal Processing (DSP) inverter generators. Similar Honda, Yamaha, and Kipor use the transistor induced technology which is just simulated signal processing. With the advance German made microprocessor, the DSP resulted in a power conversion rate of 20% higher with compatible inverter generators from Honda, Yamaha, and Kipor. The voltage is adjusted to maintain at stable 120V by the computer inverter module. The light weight design makes them ideal for transportation.

Digital Inverter Generators

One of the challenges of power generators today is to combine compact size and low noise with environmentally friendly emissions. The answer to these needs through the development of digital inverter generators. These smart, reliable, and quiet units produce smooth and consistent electrical output. Their sinewave inverters are suitable for sensitive digital electronics that most conventional generators won't work well.

Boliy Digital Generator is Semi-portable and Light Weight

Boliy digital inverter generators are approximately 50% lighter than traditional generators because the alternator is directly connected to the engine, and the flywheel is therefore eliminated. The voltage is constantly adjusted to maintain at 120V by the computer inverter module. The light weight design makes them ideal for transportation.

Boliy Generator is Quiet

Boliy digital inverter generators have a new two-tiered noise dampening system, so the noise emitted by these generators is 6-9 dB less than traditional generators. This translates to 4 to 8 times quieter than conventional generators. A 3 dB drop in noise level represents the half amount on the actual noise. This meets the new noise ordinances that some state and national parks have adopted.

Boliy Generator is EPA Approved

Boliy high-performance combustion system reduces emission levels to the lowest limit. Each Boliy comes with an EPA label. The engine is from the same factory that made the Yamaha engine with special Nikasil (nickle alloy) coating for durability and efficiency.

Boliy Generator is Quality Power

The power wave of this generator set is a perfect sinewave. This produces a "clean" power output that can run precise equipment or instruments sensitive to any disruptive voltage fluctuations, such as desktop computers, life-supports, etc. Use of non-sine wave power generators (most conventional generators), may over time, damage those equipment.


Smart Throttle:

This generator is equipped with the unique smart-throttle. It can automatically regulate the engine speed according to the load, so the fuel consumption of digital generator sets is lower by 40%, than traditional sets, the running time is therefore much longer as well. The noise level is further reduced at lower running speed.

I like that it has a 30 amp RV plug

At first I was skeptical because the claims seemed excessive; then as I read further about it I was intrigued. Thishttp://www.boliygenerator.com/Advantages.html website talks about its 'smart throttle' that regulates engine speed from 800 to 4000 rpm depending on load needs. It is not dependent on 3600 continuous rpm to keep output at 60 hz. because it is all done digitally with transistors. If it works as advertised I can imagine the savings in fuel, noise, vibration, and wear!

I went ahead and bought one of these from eBay.

I hope it arrives next week. Most quiet 3000 watt generators are heavy in comparison. I think it's partly because they have both recoil and electric start (starter & battery) the Boliy Pro3600IS only has recoil start.

Boliy Pro3600IS 3000 watts 75 lbs. 53-58dB

Kipor KGE3500Ti 2800 watts 132 lbs. 62-65dB
Honda EU3000isA 2800 watts 134 lbs. 49-58dB
Yamaha EF3000ise 2800 watts 147.4 lbs. 51-57dB
Robin RG3200iS 2800 watts 130 lbs. 58 dbA @ 7m

According to my air conditioner manual I'll only be using 12 amps after the air conditioner has started. The generator is rated at 25 amps so it'll be running at half of it's capacity - should be quiet.

Marko,
Be sure(Iknow you will ) give us your review after you get a chance to try it out.

Just a bit more info on Boliy Generators:





The Pro3600IS (or SI?) is the quiet model. S = Silence

Here's a photo of the Pro3600I model. I don't know the noise rating.

[markopolo]

Here's are photo's of the Yamaha EF2800i motor:





-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

and here's on of the Boliy Pro3600I (motor s/b the same in the Boliy Pro3600SI)



They look the same to me. The Yamaha EF2800i and the EF3000ise both use a 5.5 hp 171cc motor. So does the Boliy Pro3600SI.
