I Converted My Generator to LPG And Tested The Fuel Consumption/Cost (88321 Views)
crestedaguiyi: 3:13pm On Jun 12, 2023 |
I just ordered this kit today from alaba. It's less than 20k. The use of lpg is far cheaper. 12.5kg of gas will run for more than 42 hrs. 25litrs of fuel will not give you 24hours on same gen. This text has been done in Nnewi last week, the carburetor already has a dealer there who has large quantity in stock. Ibo people, Una wan sabotage dangote 96 Likes 12 Shares |

LPG gas is too expensive in Nigeria to make a difference in saner climes, 1 Kg of LPG is around half the price of 1 litre of petrol It might even be more expensive to run on LPG sef ![]() Nigeria na nonsense abeg. All of us don enter am whether you like it or not ![]() 16 Likes 1 Share |

eghuan1: LNG will be more expensive as it is more compressed, so more work done and higher price. I have a feeling that the cost of running CNG will almost be the same as current petrol price. That deceptive APC government is simply using CNG propanganda to divert attention on the proper use of the replaced subsidy money 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Badb0y4lyf:You're right. Nice one sha Gazzuzz. At least now folks can know what to expect and go for what works for them. At the current price point of both, it looks like a tie to me...although the lpg would be better for the environment. MODIFIED: I can now see that the 2hr 38 was ed while the LPG test was still in progress, and the 3hrs 17 is the final score Also, like someone pointed out, shouldn't CNG have been used in place of LPG?. Cos I know cars run on CNG wella, so gens should be able to as well, AND CNG is wayyyy cheaper. I think CNG should have been used, and that one makes financial sense big time. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

GAZZUZZ: Good day my dear brother. I would like some clarification on how the gas is istered versus the petrol because the entire 1kg of gas may be fully exhausted and we'll measured, but the petrol, if poured into a completely empty tank, there may be some reserve fuel left in the tank which the generator may not be able to utilize before it goes off. How do we for that. 14 Likes |
GAZZUZZ(m): 5:44pm On Jun 12, 2023 |
nex: Good question. I factored that consideration into my calculations by draining fuel from the carburettor supply line not by emptying the tank complete. Approximately 1L of petrol was used in this experiment. 28 Likes 3 Shares |
