Ships in 1-2 weeks
- ✓ Automatic generator start controller
- ✓ Dry contact trigger from any inverter
- ✓ Ignition + starter + optional choke relay control
- ✓ AC frequency engine detection
- ✓ GenStart Cloud optional: web app and firmware updates, first month free
- ✓ Start event history & logging
GenStart Cloud
GenStart Cloud adds the web app at genstart.acidni.net, firmware updates and product support. The first month is free.
Then $10 / month or $100 / year per device, chosen at checkout and billed to the same card. Each controller or bridge kit counts as one device. Subscribe or switch plans any time from Billing in your portal.
You can also buy without Cloud. The controller still starts your generator on its own, with no web app, remote status, firmware updates or product support, and you can add Cloud later.
Wireless Dry Contact Kits
These kits are for customers whose generator already supports dry contact or 2-wire start. You get the wireless bridge and, if needed, the same Pro sensor pack without paying for starter and ignition relays you do not need.
