Your choice.

ONLY HONDA POWER EQUIPMENT DEALERS HAVE ACCESS TO THE TECHO INFO TO REPAIR HONDA GENNIES .THIS INFO IS NOT AVALIBLE UNLESS YOU ARE A DEALER.CAREFULL WHAT YOU ARE TOLD AT FEILD DAYS.SORRY MATE BUT I AM A HONDA DEALER AND THERE IS A LOT OF DIFFERANCE BETWEEN THE TWO .
YES I AM BIAS!!!!!!!
CHEERS MATE
OMGIU

As a guide for usage we have a 30amp 3 Stage charger installed in the boat – at it’s full output it draws just over 550w (at 240V), a Honda 1 runs it with out problem.
If we used a 2 the auto throttle would provide a quieter operation because it not working as hard therefore running at lower throttle setting..

I do agree with OMGIU on this one. Honda have built up their name over many years. We've got a Honda fire pump that gets started once a year at the beginning of the fire season, and every year it starts on the 1st or 2nd pull of the rope.

The other brand might look the same, but it's like putting on cheap non-genuine parts on your Landie, they're generally not "quite" as good as OEM.

sorry about the caps im new

cheers omgiu

I bought a EU20i on friday.
The Honda Shop is doing a special at the moment.$1990 with a 14W solar panel,security cable and 5 year warranty.I got an extra solar panel to give me the 2 new 14W panels and the 2 x 37W panels I already have.
Im running the generator in at the moment,it isnt much louder than I remember Grazs EU10i being.It has the 80lt engel on freeze,a porta-flood light and its charging BlackBettys batteries up.I switched it to economy and it will still run the gear plugged in at about half the revs its doing.Back up to full revs for the run in.
