Rohan Review by
Generator started 1st pull. Runs very quietly and efficiently. I connected a 560ltr fridge/freezer, 75in TV, laptop charging and boiled a kettle, the Generator didn't miss a beat. Compact and easy to carry. The yellow makes in more visible at night avoiding tripping over.

Great generator Review by
From the previous reviews I got conned, took three pulls to start but maybe because I forgot to use the choke. Seriously though used it to provide power to major appliances in my home when the electricity supplier decided to turn off the power for maintenance. Ran from 9 till 4 on a tank of fuel and never missed a beat. Will be using it in the van on my big loop next year.

Brilliant!!! Review by
I LOVE my genny. I've used it many times to charge up my AGM batteries and fire up hot water system in my MH. She starts first pull Every time and purrs on low load. The revs speed up when heating the HW system but I don't use this very often, so the noise factor is no biggie.

DOING THE JOB HASSLE FREE! Review by
Started on first pull, runs the aircon and hot water and all lights etc. Initially ran for 10 minutes and then gradually put accessories on it did stop when switched hot water on but realised that it was on economy. Switched to full and everything ran smoothly and later put on to economy and no problem.

Good Value Generator Review by
We bought this generator for our caravan, after adding oil and fuel it started on the 3rd or fourth pull. Very quite when its not under load however it was noisier then expected when under load. We ran our Dometic Harrier AC, microwave, toaster and kettle okay, only one appliance at a time. Overall very happy with the Generator does what we wanted it for.

Pleased with my decision to buy Review by
Bought on review recommendation just for household backup in times of power outage. Have not yet had to use it for this purpose but have tested it and it responded well. It starts easily and instantly and runs very quietly. I am pleased with my decision to buy.

Fantastic value Review by
After researching gennies for quite some time, I decided on either Honda or Yamaha until an ad for Cromtech popped up. It didn't make any sense to not buy this, considering it offers very close to the other 2 AND it was over $1000 cheaper. I've had it installed on a slide out tray in the boot of my coaster bus and extremely happy. Easy to start, easy to carry and a nice compact size. It will also run my rooftop air con

Cromtech 2400W Generator Review by
Started first pull and runs quietly. The finish looks good and the price is very competitive. I'm not sure why you would spend double on a Honda or Yamaha. The Kelmatt generator bag fits it perfectly.

Great little Generator Review by
Previous Generator died so I needed a new one. I was looking at getting a Honda, then saw these Cromtech. After reading a lot of reviews and doing a bit of research I decided to purchase. After all, it's half the price and slightly bigger in capacity. My order arrived faster than was stated and in good condition. Filled up the oil, put in some petrol and first pull it stated! Very impressed. These generators are light weight, quiet and do exactly what they're supposed to. Quality of finish is quite good too. We live one the road in our 5th wheel caravan and don't need a gennie very often so I would expect a long life from this generator. Would recommend one to others.

Have only used once but starts well and runs quite, intend on using for caravan so time will tell. Just a pity the warranty isn’t longer.

Great value for money Review by
After researching many generators, this one came up as the best value for money. My main criteria were, noise, cost and continuous power output. The Cromtech 2400 starts easily and is surprisingly quiet. I tested the auto throttle with the different settings on a hair dryer and the generator rpm increased nicely as the power requirement increased. I do not intend to use it consistently over long periods of time so expect longevity will not be a problem. Main use will be for emergency backup and charging batteries on caravan. The noise level whilst charging batteries is very low and would not bother anyone in the vicinity. Best value for money by far.
(Posted on 17 November 2021)
Noisier than expected. Review by
Put the oil in and a little bit of fuel (98 RON) set the choke and it started first pull. Very easy. Put it on load to a heater and it supplied the demand no problem. However, it was a bit nosier than I expected (due to their marketing) but it was running in my workshop. However, my other (slightly smaller) generator was noticeably quieter in the same location . Maybe it needs to be "run-in".
(Posted on 14 November 2021)
So far so good Review by
Put the oil in and a little bit of fuel set the choke and it started first pull. So easy.Put it on load to the caravan then started the air-con and it supplied the demand no problem.Have to say it was a bit nosier than I expected but that might be because it was running between the brick wall of the house and the garden fence (tin).Very confident it will do the job we have bought it for.

Happy so far Review by
Purchased this generator after several power outages in my area and needed for emergency back up. Have only used once so far but ran smoothly and quietly throughout the day powering home essentials fridge, power to electronic devices etc. Used about 2.5 litres of fuel over 7 hours. Happy so far but proof will be over longer term use.

The Cromtech 2400w Inverter Generator has not disappointed! Good size unit that hasn't skipped a beat. Works wonders in the heat (lives up to its outback name). Best value for money generator going around in my opinion. Even other family members have purchased after us and are impressed as well.

better than expected Review by
I looked at them all, Honda's, Yamaha's, kings etc etc, I settled on this one for a few reasons, Cromwell"s have been around for a long time, the amount I'll actually use it versus cost versus size, weight etc, I've had it for about 2mths and used it only twice, both time's - awesome. It's quiet enough to be able to have a conversation within 2metres of it, it starts 1st time, it's not too heavy, For 2400 watts, it's finished nicely, easy to use, can't wait to use it camping/4 wheel driving. sweet.

My Yamaha 2000 hardly ran anything on my van, so procrastinated for some time on the Cromtech 2400, much cheaper, smaller cc engine. After chatting to My Gen, reading Reviews, more research decided to bite the bullet again. Arrived within days, started first go, to my delight tested at home, ran aircon no probs. Now for my big run to NT.

Brilliant bit of gear Review by
Started first pull out of the box.Ran the caravan air con with no problems.It will come in handy for the cyclone season and will be able to keep my fridges running during any power outages.Fix in the generator box on the van with room to spare.

So far so good Review by
The generator starts after a couple of pulls on the recoil. Is really under load running the air con in my caravan and once the fridge is engaged the generator is screaming it’s guts out, I guess the fridge can run on gas. Now we’ll see how it stands the test of time as it won’t get a great deal of use but will be started regularly.
(Posted on 2 November 2020)

Haven’t had the opportunity to fully test the unit for the purpose it was intended for (COVID) However, trial runs & home testing is fantastic. I also was swayed by Crommelins for service etc as I have dealt with them many times.

Cromtech 2400W Review by
I ordered the Cromtech 2400 as a backup power source so I haven’t really given it a good run yet but it was easy to set up. What I liked was that the footprint and the weight was small for a 2.4KW generator. It took a while for the generator to arrive, 2 weeks but in all fairness there are difficulties with all imported products due to the pandemic.
(Posted on 12 September 2020)
The Best Investment I've Ever Made Review by
Bought the Chromtech 2400 as a second hand unit from a mate, who originally bought it to overcome an power blackout problem he encountered while working on the tools just out of Brisbane, and he no other alternative to buy this 2400 chromtech, so when he said he was going to offload it and at the price of $600 dollars, and being an avid camper I jumped at it and him and didn't let him get away, so in summary although being second hand it has not missed a beat and now it's over two years old and run s like a purring kitten, performs all; that I could wish for, runs my 60 litre fridge, 2 CPAP machines and when needed the toaster, and kettle,plus lights, just make sure I don't overload it with all at the same time, but in my words it's a little ripper.
(Posted on 10 September 2020)
Excellent gen Review by
After plenty of research nothing else stacks up if you want a gen over 2000kw. The value and quality seem really good. In fact using it right now and it’s running two phone chargers and the jug no dramas. Pretty quiet too. Obviously a little louder when at high revs but I’ve got it running on a longer lead so it’s further from our site. Also extremely easy to start.

Great Generator Review by
Excellent unit, looks very well put together, put some oil & petrol in and 2nd pull away she went ticking over like a two bob watch. Hooked it up the the caravan and started the air con (Ibis 4) hardly murmured, turned the fridge on as well and the revs picked up a bit, but still quietly ticking over. Thought I'd test it and turned the hot water system on as well. That made it run flat out but I left all three going for about 10 minutes and no problem. Very good to know. I turned everything off and then tried the electric kettle (1850 -2200 watts on the label) It loaded the generator up but it boiled the kettle no problems. Looking forward to using it in future. Very happy so far.

Excellent Review by
Product arrived in quick time, sooner than I expected. After reading the manual and instructions I added fuel and oil, gave it two gentle half pulls and then a gentle full pull and it started very easily and continues to start in the same manner. I have now been away for 7 days and have used it each day. I use it mainly to charge up my caravan battery and whilst that is charging I can run my Ac on heat cycle, microwave and charge my phones and tablets. I asked my neighbor in our free camp if he minded me running my generator and he said that he had left his genie at home so I offered to let him hook onto mine and we charged both batteries while we enjoyed the fire and a drink. He agreed it was a great value generator.

After purchasing online, received the generator to my door within the expected time. After following instructions pulled starter cord for first time and generator fired up before the end of the pull.

GREAT BANG FOR YOUR BUCK Review by
Purchased Generator for running my caravans ibis 3 air con while free camping in the warmer months. I have used it once so far over a weekend a worked faultlessly. Kept the caravan super cool while camping on the Murrumbidgee river. Noise level was fine under load (way quieter than my friends kings generator running beside mine). I went for a cheaper brand generator as It will be only used around 5 times a year. As I have a EU10 to charge batteries if needed and use a diesel heater in the colder months. An other selling point was even though it is a Chinese gene we have a Crommelins service agent in town. Very happy with my purchase.

Great unit with excellent power output at a realis Review by
The unit arrived within 3 days of ordering.The online ordering system was so easy to follow. On arrival I followed the instructions and the unit started on the first pull of the cord.The product was so good I have since purchased a Waco refrigerator and roof top air conditioner. Great company to deal with with prompt service.

Great service and value Review by
Delivered extremely promptly. Small technical issue, but the service department sorted that out whilst I waited. I have hooked up lights, TV and a fan heater so far, and it hasn't missed a beat. It appears to be a very capable generator with excellent local back-up.

Fantastic unit Review by
This generator is great. We were on our maiden trip last week end at a free camp, we had all the comforts of home in our van, hot water, lighting and fridges all running and our quiet generator just purring away in the back ground, we were quite surprised how quiet it was and great fuel consumption as well, we think we have made a really good choice .

Looks Good - Works Well -Great Value for Money Review by
Very Happy with the Cromtech. Excellent online experience from purchase to delivery. Great looking product simple instructions easy to use. Fill it with oil and some fuel and started first go. Tried my car polisher 1200 watt powered it easily. Tested on my RV and will run my air conditioner that draws 6.0 amps (1440 watts) very happy. This unit will be fully tested at the Big Red Bash in Birdsville this July.

Very impressed with the quality. I pulled it out of the box, loaded it with oil and fuel, followed the starting instructions and it started on the FIRST pull! Unbelievable!Plugged our Jurgens Lunagazer into it and it easily runs the Sparrow air conditioning whilst also running the fridge,and battery charger.It also runs our Aldi coffee machine and the toaster separately.It’s pretty quite but you will still need to be respectful of your fellow campers.Did a lot of research on this size generator and apart from the price, the Cromtech service network was the deal clincher for me.

Great service, communication and quality item! Review by
Good quality generator that does everything required when we need it . Great to take away in the van as it only weighs 20kg ! Looked at all brands of generators but the Cromtec had good specs compared to all the others and even though there were cheaper you couldn't go past the quality of the yellow !!!

Cromtech 2400w Review by
Arrived safely and packaged well. Traveling through WA and NT with limited solar this will solve all my power issues. Read through the instructions, oil and fuel and it went first start. Super quiet and most importantly runs everything in the van and the air conditioner......happy camper.

It's RARE to get such VALUE FOR MONEY & SERVICE Review by
The price was too good to pass up, and why would you go past the Cromtech with all the positive reviews anyway. Since it was delivered I have filled the oil and petrol tanks, given it a trial run, first powering the caravan air conditioner then the fridge (at the same time). The Cromtech handled the tasks easily and quietly, confirming my confidence in it's performance. I look forward to using my Genny and the benefits it will provide for us as we travel. I will be recommending My Generator to fellow caravaners and anyone else looking for the great products and service which you provide.

Great service and very knowledgeable toward gettin Review by
We ordered our new “My Generator” recently in anticipation of the bad weather that was ominously forecast for northern NSW. Luckily, we were well prepared, as there were monstrous winds, trees down everywhere and the power dropped out for several hours. Not in our house though, thanks to the compact and easy to use “My generator” we had power on hand straight away. And also, I’d like to add it was first pull start and extremely quiet whilst in operation so as not to offend our neighbors- or to make them jealous!!

Product Q&A

Ask Us a Question
  • My product manual for my inverter generator mentions an 'earthing wire / earthing stake' - do I need this?

    Hi there, good question. This is mentioned in generator manuals and is a safety feature that will earth the generator. You do have the option to fit an 'earth wire'. Connecting an earth wire and stake is an option available to customer's that purchase a generator.

    An earth wire and stake are not supplied with generators that we sell and is application specific. In practice, we do not see customer's do this, especially for inverter generators. It can be something that is implemented for more specialized generators on mining work sites for example...for common applications, it is not common practice to 'earth' the generator with a wire and stake. If you are in doubt, and you have a specialized generator requirement that may need 'earthing', please consult an electrician. Hope that helps.

  • Hi, we are interested in the cromtech outback generator, but would like to know if the engine cylinder is only alloy or a steel lined?

    Hi there, great question – the cylinder for the Cromtech Outback is a cast iron liner type. Many thanks.

  • I plan to leave the generator outside my long term camp setup, what's your best inverter generator that can handle all weather conditions, especially heavy rain?

    Hi there, sounds like a nice set up! The short answer is that electricity and water don’t mix. Whilst we are aware that some people run their inverter gensets in all weather conditions, it is not recommended as safe or best practice for your equipment, as inverter generators do not come with weatherproof outlets as standard.

    Ideally, you would somehow shelter your generator from the rain. But just remember that fully enclosing your generator whilst its running is not an option - generators need fresh air intake for the engine to run and they emit carbon dioxide, so they should never be contained. Overall, some rain protection but also room for fresh air intake and fume emission is what you need.

  • Will this generator run the pump for my house water system?

    Hi, that is a tough question to answer without knowing more details about your pump. Water pumps come in a range of sizes and some smaller pumps can run on a small 2000 watt generator, whereas some house pumps would need around 6000 – 8000 watts or more!...electric pumps are notorious for having quite high starting loads. So, you would need to find out the peak load (in Watts) required to start your pump. If you cannot find the starting load from the product manual or data plate, you could contact the manufacturer of your pump, or engage an electrician to take a reading.

    Once you have that all important stating load amount for your pump, you can then choose the right sized generator to run your pump.

  • Will this Cromtech 2400w run my Caravan Air Conditioner? Thanks

    Hi Warren, we get this question a lot. The short answer is:  it depends on your air conditioner. So this Cromtech 2400w inverter generator will certainly run many caravan air conditioner models on the market, but there are some air conditioner models which may require a larger generator to handle the start up power.

    The way to find out is; contact the manufacturer of your air conditioner, ask to speak to their technical department and when you quote the make and model of your particular A/C unit, they will advise a recommended generator size for you. Note that they will often advise a size slightly larger than the exact needs to provide some breathing room.

    In our experience, most leading caravan air conditioner brands (Dometic, Air Command, Truma, Coleman, Denso etc.) will recommend around a 2400w to 2800w sized inverter generator to run the majority of caravan air conditioner models. There are exceptions to this both ways though; some newer, more efficient model caravan air conditioners such the Dometic Harrier Inverter A/C can comfortably run from a smaller 2000w inverter generator. Then there are other larger (sometimes older) caravan air conditioner models, that can require 2800watts or above from a generator.  

    So, overall – the Cromtech 2400w inverter generator is a popular for running caravan air conditioners, but you should first find out from your caravan air conditioner manufacturer what size generator is required for your particular caravan A/C model.   

  • Does this have a decompressor on the pull start for easy starting like the Yamaha?

    Hi, thanks for your question; The Cromtech 2400w Inverter Generator has an automatic decompressor (on the camshaft) that provides easy pull starting.

  • How do you access the oil and sparkplug? Do you have to remove the whole plastic yellow shell?

    Hi - thanks for your question. There is an easy to remove panel on the back of the generator which you can take off to access the oil filler cap and the spark plug. 

  • Just wondering does this unit have fuel petcock or not, and if running 2 power leads for AC power does it allow for 2000w each or is 1000w per outlet? Its to run a portable hot plate.

    Hi - yes this unit does have a fuel petcock, so you can switch it off whilst running to drain the remaining fuel in the carburetor.

    The unit produces a total power output of 2400 watts maximum and 2100 watts continuous. If you place a power demand on the unit that is greater than 2400 watts at peak, or 2100 watts running, then it will trip the circuit breaker. Many thanks 

  • Hi Guys, what function is the on/off where the petrol goes in? Thanks.

    Hi Carl,

    This is the fuel cap breather/vent.

    Per the user manual:

    The fuel tank cap has a vent to balance inner and outer pressure of fuel tank, and stop fuel flow. Turn vent knob clockwise from OFF to ON to allow fuel to flow into carburetor to allow the generator to start.
    When generator is OFF or moved, ensure to turn vent knob counter clockwise from ON to OFF to avoid possible fuel overflow or vapor

  • Hi, i presume unleaded is the petrol of choice for the Cromtech 2400w Inverter Generator? Thanks.

    Hi Carlos,

    You are correct, standard unleaded is the recommended fuel source for the Cromtech Outback.

  • We are retirees and will be touring Australia in a 4x4 Sprinter campervan. It has a Dometic FreshJet 2200 aircon. We like the price, weight and reviews of the Cromtech 2400 generator but wonder if it will cope with usage in the Top End where we may need

    Hi Kristin,

    The Cromtech Outback would be just fine in the Top End.

    We have sent a number of them all over the country and they have been working a treat!

  • Hi guys - What is the engine build like? How many CC? Is it brushless? How does it get 2.4kw when same size yamaha only gets 2kw? Any reports of main concerns with this new entrant?

    Hi Mal - great questions. It's a Chinese non-name engine, so it's not like a genuine Yamaha or Honda engine. The engine size is 79CC and typically the cheaper budget branded generators work the engines a little bit harder to get the same (or slightly more) power output, meaning they can sometimes be smaller in size/weight but have a higher output rating compared to some other brands. That is why the budget brand generators are recommended for light use and if you need regular, intensive use its best to pay more and opt for a premium brand generator (Yamaha or Honda). 

    To date, the overall experience with this Cromtech Outback 2400w inverter generator has been very, very positive. They launched in early 2016 and as at this point (July 2016) we have sold many dozens of them and have had exceptional feedback. For recreational use or occasional backup requirements, they are very compelling given their price point. The thing we like most about them is the Crommelins national service support network that backs these Cromtech units up - there are over 500 Crommelins Service Agents nationally so if you ever needed spare parts, the unit repaired or inspected under warranty, there is plenty of support available; most Chinese made budget brands don’t offer this.      

     

  • Hello, Just wondering if there is the availability to get an extended warranty on your Cromtech 2400w Inverter Generator??Thanks, Mark

    Hi Mark,

    There is no option for extended warranty sorry. Cromtech only provide the 12 Month warranty.

    *As off 21st of April 2022 - any Cromtech CTG2500i comes with a 2 year warranty!

  • Is the cromtech sine wave rated? Is it supplied with engine oil already?

    Hi Paul, firstly: yes, the Cromtech Outback is an inverter generator, which produces pure sine wave power, making it suitable to run sensitive electronic equipment such as mobile phones, laptops etc. 

    Secondly, the generator does not come with oil. There will be a very small amount of residual oil in the chamber from when it was tested in the factory. However, you will need to put fresh fuel and fresh oil in the unit to start it for the first time. The suitable oil is 4 stroke engine oil, 10W-30. 

    Thanks.

  • With the cromtech outback, given the 15amp outlets, do I need a means to convert from 15amp to 10amp when using electrical appliances

    Hi Peter,

    There is no need to covert anything at all.

    10A plugs are compatible with 15A outlets.

  • Considering purchasing- however have wrist injury- is this generator a push button start?

    Hi Sal,

    Unfortunately the Cromtech Outback is recoil start only.  Note the recoil mechanism allows easy pull starting however. 

  • With the Cromtech, where is the closest warranty agent to Townsville if it needs service or warranty work doing?

    Hi Sandra, the Cromtech products are backed by Crommelins Machinery Australia who have a nationwide service agent network for any warranty, servicing or spare parts support for the Crommelins and Cromtech products. You can see the full list of Crommelins service agents HERE.

  • Is the Cromtech 2400 pure sine wave ?

    Hi there - yes, the Cromtech Outback (CTG2500i) 2400 watt generator is a pure sine wave inverter generator -  making it perfect to run your sensitive electronic equipment such as laptops, phones etc. 

    Thanks, Steve.

  • Can this generator be run in parallel with another generator?

    Hi there  -  no, the Cromtech Outback 2400w generator does not have parallel capability. If you are wanting to connect two smaller inverter generators to double the output, you would need to consider models such as the:

    Yamaha EF2000iS

    Yamaha EF24000iS

    Many thanks.

  • what is the maximum wattage of appliances that can be used in the caravan

    Hi There, This generator has a continous wattage rating of 2100 watts. Therfore, you would not be able to exceed 2100 watts.

    Kind Regards,

  • Can a remote off switch be fitted

    Hi There,

    Remote switches cannot be connected to this generator sorry.

    They are recoil start only.

  • Does the Cromtech2400w have parallel compatibility another Cromtech2400w as does its rivals

    Hi There,

    The Cromtech Outback does not have the ability to be used in parallel unfortunately.

  • what are the dimentions please

  • Regarding earthing (mentioned a number of times in Manual), what is the purpose of earthing?, Does it make the generator more efficient? When should an earth be used? Why wasn't an earth wire supplied?

    Hi There

    Earthing is not required for portable generators. Generally the instructions are written for many different countries that may have different earthing requirements.

     

     

     

     

  • Does the unit come with a spark plug insert tool and is it easy or not to access the and service the spark plug carbie to drain and air filter and exhaust? Can you point to a video on how to carry out a service please?

    Hi There

    The spark plug comes with a spare and a tool to get the old one out, and both the air cleaner and exhaust are easily accessible.

    The carby however, is in a difficult spot to get to.

    The booklet that comes with the unit contains a lot of helpful information

    Kind Regards

  • Just an addition to my previous question -- Its really great that you support your unit with spare parts how comprehensive is the range and since you are a well established company and not likely to disappear into the never never, how long would you typi

    Hi There

    You need to make sure the generator is on stable ground, and not directly on sand/dirt. This will prevent any issues of dust ingress.

    Supply of parts is on the manufacturer which is Crommelins Machinery.

  • Looking at your Cromtech 2400w generator. Does this have service agent support if it needs inspection under warranty or spare parts for repair?

    Thanks for your inquiry.
