Back Up Power,
October 15, 2007
By Anonymous Reviewerfrom Cadilac, MI
"Used as back up for power outtages at farm,do not have to worry about gasoline going bad in tank and carb and always have diesel fuel on hand.I hooked this up to a transfer switch at the utility companys meter base and can supply power to any building when needed.6500 watts is plenty of power for the most important things when the electric is out."

Strong and sturdy little USA generator,
April 9, 2007
By Dieseldocfrom South Carolina
"I have two of these 6500 DPG units and am very satisfied with their performance and the service from North Star. The units serve as home back up power units and have proven very adaptable and reliable. There are less expensive "clones" available on the web but I had reservations about reliability and service of these "clone" units. All diesel units will require some maintanence and upkeep. I have found this 6500 DPG to be very solid in all aspects and the North Star service personel extremely helpful as I have adapted the units to be essentially fixed standby units that interface with a Xantrex solar power inverter system. It has a strong little Yanmar 10 hp motor (same manufacturer as in my sturdy trouble free John Deere tractor) that is well adapted to its power generator end and solidly put together in Minnesota. The only thing that would make it better would be a day tank / fuel pump option or larger fixed tank, and a two wire auto start option. Pay a little more and get the best. I highly recommend this unit. Dieseldoc"

Well Worth The Money,
January 14, 2007
By Wildcatfrom Dothan Al. Formerly From New Orleans (Katrina)
"I Bought This Unit To Power My Travel Trailer And It Is Powerful Enough To Power 2 Of Them. Starts Up Easily After Sitting 2 Or 3 Months And Runs Great. I Keep Mine In The Back Of My Pickup So I Have Electricty Anywhere, Anytime I Need It. Power Output Is Clean And Steady--No Annoying FlIckering--Just Steady Constant Electricity Just Like It Was Comming Off The Pole.It Is A Little Noisy, But Well Worth It. Heavy, But That Helps Keep It From Sliding In The Back Of My Truck Or Growing Legs And Walking Off If You Know What I Mean. This Is No Toy , So If You Want A Serious Generator For The Long Haul, This Is It."
