Per previous post reviews.

Well its finally died.

The engine still runs well but the elctronics side has bitten the dust. 

7 years of pretty light use, think about 220 hours, with some intermittent issues. Cant seem to get the same parts for repair and the cost of similar parts would make the process pointless.

Bought a 2nd hand Subaru 5kva for a replacement, no fancy Eco mode or pure sine or electronic start. Decided didnt really need a pure sine digital inverter type as really I only use it for tools and occasional battery charging. Yes its noisier but not a lot and Im pretty isolated and the only person it annoys is me.
