    Hi there. From memory your generator is a Honda EU3.. Is it plenty big enough? Would an EU2 run a truck, or do you need the extra? Cheers.

    Well, if you want to run an aircon its right on the limit of the EU2 (it actually exceeds the limit). Some people report that their aircon does work with the EU2, but they have to have a few goes to get it started without hitting the safety cut-out on the gennie.

    The EU3 runs the aircon, hot water and microwave all at the same time with no dramas.

    Big jump up in price though. the EU2 is about $1800. The EU3 is around $4K from memory. It's also 59Kg compared to 20Kg.

    BTW - the model we bought was the "Silent" EU30is (that's what the s at the end stands for anyway):



    If you don't want aircon - then the EU2 would do nicely!

    Has to be a very late model aircon (with soft start) for the 2 to run it(maybe--), we looked at the EU3 but couldnt find the space!!

    Cheers. It'll be an EU3 as I'm setting the house up so it can be disconnected in the workshop and connected to a Genset on those days when the power goes out.

    Thanks for spotting that one for me. He's $45K more expensive than me, but it has quite a bit more gear in it than mine.

    Sort of seems on par, pricing wise. It has higher Kms than mine, but it also includes a Suzuki 4WD.

    Very nice indeed. I was very tempted to down the unimog route but her indoors wouldn't allow it so we settled on a 130 instead. Still im very happy with it......

    I got Wifetec around that.. Took her to see Spudboys truck. Didn't need to say anything.. The double bed, toilet, shower and galley kitchen made the decision for me!!
