Frequently Asked Questions About the Hyundai HY3500i

Why Choose the Hyundai HY3500i?

The Hyundai HY3500i is built for anyone who needs dependable power without the bulk of larger generators. Its inverter technology delivers a pure sine wave output, which means it runs laptops, TVs, and other sensitive electronics safely without the risk of damage.

At 23kg, the HY3500i is considered lightweight for its output, making it practical to move and position when needed. Its compact frame also helps save valuable space in caravans, vehicles, or storage areas. With a low operating noise of just 60dB at 7 metres, it runs much quieter than conventional generators, so it’s well suited to camping grounds, caravan sites, and outdoor activities where reduced noise is appreciated.

Can the HY3500i power a caravan air conditioner?

The HY3500i has a rated output of 3000W and a maximum of 3500W. Many caravan air conditioners fall in the 2000W–3000W range, but some can have a higher start-up surge when the compressor kicks in. If your air conditioner’s running load is under 3000W and the start-up draw doesn’t exceed 3500W, the HY3500i should be able to power it.

How long does the HY3500i run on a full tank?

At 50% load, the HY3500i runs for about 5.5 hours on a full tank. Run time will vary depending on how much power you are drawing. Lighter loads will extend the fuel life, while operating near maximum capacity will shorten it.

Is the inverter safe for laptops and phones?

Yes. The HY3500i produces a pure sine wave output, which provides the same quality of power as your home outlets. This makes it safe for sensitive electronics such as laptops, mobile phones, TVs, and fridges.
