Did some testing to compare Wayne's numbers with my
Kipor KGE2000Ti.As you can see from the technical specs on the KGE web site I have a 105cc engine with a maximum rated RPM of 4,500.
I too am beginning to wonder how CPE is going to achieve the same results with an 80cc engine. I am still hoping I will be able to get my hands on one before too long so I can find out.
This was my test set-up. A "rated" 1,500 watt electric heater (not) and a 240 watt soldering iron as a load.
The Kill-A-Watt Meter.
And the DTI-20K Digital Tachometer.
The Kipor has two engine speeds - Low or Econo mode measured at 1,390 RPM and high, measured at
exactly 5,000 RPM. There is not ramp-up stepped or inbetween speed.
Below is the Photo Story
The Test Set-up
RPM of engine in the Econo Mode, no load.
RPM of engine with a 1,610 watt load. 5,000 RPM right on the money!
