VX Level 18 Water-Cooled Methanol Engine Generator Set Electric Start 12V 30W DIY Power Plant
Hero Section: The Ultimate Water-Cooled Micro Power Station
Take your engine hobby to the next level with this VX Level 18 Water-Cooled Methanol Generator Set. This is not just a model; it is a fully assembled, high-performance micro power plant. Featuring a genuine Level 18 nitro engine modified with a complete water-cooling system—including a radiator, pump, and transparent reservoir—it delivers stable, efficient power without the overheating issues of air-cooled units. With Electric Start and a digital voltage display, it combines the raw excitement of internal combustion with the precision of modern engineering.
Why Choose This Water-Cooled VX Generator?
- Advanced Water-Cooling System: This set features a professional-grade cooling loop:
- Metal Water-Cooling Head: Replaces the standard air fins for direct heat transfer.
- Radiator & Fan: Actively dissipates heat to the air.
- Belt-Driven Water Pump: Circulates coolant efficiently.
- Transparent Reservoir: Allows you to monitor coolant levels and flow visually.
- Benefit: This system allows for higher compression ratios, greater power output, and significantly longer run times by preventing cylinder wear and overheating.
- Electric Start Convenience: No more pulling cords. The engine is equipped with an electric starter motor, allowing you to fire it up instantly with the push of a button.
- Real-Time Monitoring: A built-in LED Voltage Display gives you instant feedback on the generator's output, ensuring your connected devices are safe.
- Stable 12V Output (30W): The integrated generator head produces a regulated ~12V DC output at 30W. It’s perfect for charging phones, power banks, or running outdoor LED lighting rigs.
- Premium Build Quality: Mounted on a sturdy Double Bottom Plate, the entire assembly is rigid and vibration-resistant. The combination of the flywheel, belts, and transparent tank gives it a complex, industrial aesthetic that looks incredible on display.

Usage Scenario: The Field Lab
Imagine setting this up at a campsite or in your garage. You fill the fuel tank and the coolant reservoir. You press the start button. The engine roars to life, and you see the coolant rushing through the transparent tubes. The voltage meter lights up "12.0V". You plug in your phone, charging it with a miniature, liquid-cooled power plant you control. It’s the ultimate blend of mechanics, thermodynamics, and electrical engineering.
Important Tips:
- Power Limitations: This is a micro-generator (30W). It is designed for low-power electronics (phones, lights). Do not attempt to power high-wattage household appliances.
- Starter Battery: The electric starter requires an external power source (typically a handheld starter unit or battery pack, check kit contents).
- DIY Nature: As a hand-modified custom product, minor cosmetic imperfections (scratches) on the base or custom parts are normal and do not affect performance.
- Maintenance: Regular maintenance of the engine and cooling system (checking coolant levels, after-run oil) is required for longevity.
