Life Expectancy of 12kw Power Tech?
The M380 I was looking at today had over 4700 hours on the generator’s clock. I know there are many variables, but would that be about mid-life, end of life, or on borrowed time of what you’d expect? Thankyou for your replies.

I wouldn’t think twice about 4700 hours unless I had reason to believe dramatic abuse. It’s getting broken in. Especially if the owner adhered anywhere close to the 100 hour service interval in the book. The entertainer coaches run them for weeks at a time on tour. Not uncommon to see those coaches with 20-30,000 gen hours or more. Those engines are used in refrigerator trucks, bob cat utility tractors, many small farm type tractors and numerous other uses. They tend to be pretty robust.

Welcome to the forum. Good luck on your search.
