A Closer Look at the Honda EU2000i Super Quiet Series Generator
The Honda EU2000i Super Quiet Series generator is an inverter-equipped, portable, lightweight model that features a totally enclosed body resulting in noticeably quieter performance. It provides up to 9.6 hours of running time on just 1.1 gallon of gasoline, and with a dry weight of just 46 pounds, it can be easily carried and conveniently stored in small compartments. What's more, it can power a computer, TV, coffee pot, and small refrigerator. As increasing numbers of consumers are turning to fuel-efficient, portable generators for outdoor work and play, Honda generators can be found at sporting events of all kinds, job sites, campsites, picnics, tailgating events and marina parties – powering fans, TVs, radios, blenders, coffee pots, small power tools and notebook computers.
Honda Super Quiet EU models were the original generators to offer parallel capability: working in tandem, two lightweight Honda EU2000i models can deliver their full, combined power, easily able to start and run an RV air conditioner along with other appliances.
