As far as big generators, I have a Miller 12,000 watt Miller Trailblazer engine driven welder with a built in inverter. Amazing machine and welds like a dream. Yes it costs $10,500 but I make money with that so I could justify that to the wife. Hard to cough up $1,200 for a 2200 watt Honda when WEN sells a 2250 watt for $442.

Brand new.. I got my eu30is used on Facebook market place for 200$. The engine was ceased. The owner thought it was dead after he did not use it for 5years And so i bought it cus it was spotless and only had 20hrs on the display. Long story shot turns out the owner had filled the gas tank to brim about 3 years ago. He ran it occasionally and the last time he shut it off he left the fuel valve open and so the fuel had leaked from the carb and the intake valve was open when the generator last stopped so the fuel filled the cylinder and passed the rings , diluted the oil and the rotten residue of the ethenol mixed petrol caused the piston to get stuck. The carb and fuel tank was in rough shape. Carb boul had black tar to top and i had to soak it in methanol for 3 days then in diesel for a week before running it through ultrasonic cleaner few times , i didn't want to buy a new carb cus in my experience the aftermarket ones run worse than the oem even if the oem is not perfect but the oem carb is expensive. After i managed to clean the carb and tank. I ran the generator and it started in 3rd pull. Made power immediately. I ran it for 2hrs with a variable load. (18000btu ac non inverter ). And it ran so good. I was so happy i went to the honda dealership and bought a whole gasket kit and fuel system parts to replace all the rotten and cracked pipes and filters in the tank. All in all i spent 200+50$ to get that generator running again and about a month of my time. It was totally worth it. I have converted it to lpg. I don't want to deal with preserving petrol and cycling them . Lpg is cheaper and burns cleaner , no fear of calendar degradation. I keep a bunch of lpg cylinders and they each run the generator for more than 12hrs. I have already ran it for more than 100hrs last year after a cyclone knocked off the tree in my yard and fell on the transformer that powers my home. I was without power for a 5 days. Generator ran non stop only stopping every 12hrs to replace the cylinder..

That was a brutal way to test a Gold Star Genset. To be honest figure out the wattage of all the kit you desire to run at the same time and budget for a unit that can produce the power It's easy to calc and rather than have the Honda screaming its rings off, just cycle thru what apps you need to run. With your getup I would have invested in the 3000 unit. My 2.0EU runs 99% on eco and gives me 13 hours run time per tank, yes it idols all night long lol That's just juicing up a 80lt Engel and a 400w kicker system and LED lights I purchased the Honda because it has 100% service coverage in Oz. 5 years ago the Yammy was still growing the service sector.

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the video. So, yes essentially the generator will definitely help keep those appliances running and charge the batteries each day for a few hours. Whether or not it will completely fill the batteries would be a question of the idle amp draw of your van, the size of your charger and the setup of your charger. You will find that some chargers slow their rate of charge significantly when reaching the 90% to help with battery longevity. If you planned on using the generator once day, every day for a few hours, then it should be enough to keep the van ticking along. Cheers, Nathan.

To me it seems like another safety device/point of failure that is not necessary for people who know they're supposed to run their generators in well vented areas. I just picture setting up my generator in the very corner of my porch (trying to keep it out of the weather) after a hurricane and then have it turn off from the co-minder because there's not enough ventilation.

Download the owners manual for the eu2200iTAG then read about cominder on page 24-25. It says do not use in partially enclosed areas, do not cover with wood or a tent even if away from building, do not place it next to another generator (even though they're made to be hooked together), make sure the generator exhaust is not pointing into the wind. Also there is a service life of the sensor (5-10 years I think) and a light will start blinking when it's close to needing to be swapped out by a certified Honda technician. Also there's a light that blinks when the cominder system malfunctions. So it can shut your generator off if the wind blows the exhaust by the sensor or if you're using it next to another generator or a running car, or if you set it up in a dog house, outside, to keep it out of the weather or if the cominder sensor reaches the end of its service life or malfunctions.

No fuel indicator as such, but you can see the level from the top when the cap is removed 👍 Cheers, Nathan.

Absolutely. This would a perfect unit for power outages. It produces clean sine wave power, suitable for all electrical devices 👍

It will depend on the power draw, but from my experience it's very likely that it will be able to run both very easily together. Cheers, Nathan.

@XploringOz Have you used a toaster & a kettle with the aircon,hot water service + fridge at the same time with the generator ? Considering getting a Gene soon

Hey mate, at the moment I haven’t tried that combination. I don’t actually carry an electric kettle in our van, as we do so much off grid camping we only use the stove and don’t want to carry 2 around. My belief would be that it would work without the hot water system on. This system does seem to use a fair amount of power and with it turned off you would have plenty of power in reserve ready to go.

Best to use them electric items separately one at a time especially the kettle as they are often over 2000watts and will over load the gen set cut off switch into action. Toaster will be ok with the fridge, will need to turn the a/c off tho most likely and the hot water. Two slice toaster will most likely be 1200watts, them coffee machine use less power than a kettle 1200-1000watts but take up a tad more space, microwave could be used instead of the kettle running at around 1400watts. If you have an inverter microwave that’s even better as you can put it on 50% and only use 750watts but need to run the timer twice as long.

Get a micro air easy start and this can power any rv AC.

Did u have eco on? If so u get less power right… so im confused about your test?

@XploringOz

3 жыл бұрын

Hey mate, ECO mode does not produce less power, it simply lowers the RPM of the engine to match the power requirements of the appliances being used. If you turn off ECO mode, then the engine will run at full RPM all the time, regardless of power actually required. Hope this helps a bit. Cheers, Nathan.

Where can I buy these generator?

There are many local dealerships around Australia, anywhere that stocks Honda small motors, but personally I purchased mine from GeneratorPlace online. This was still cheaper (even with the shipping) than most stockists. Cheers, Nathan

Also .. how do you check the fuel level in the generator?

@XploringOz

3 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately no fuel gauge on this model. It's not hard to see though from opening the cap, but extra fuel would be required to carry to be sure.

Seems like some 22i’s have Bluetooth and some don’t? Great video!

Yes that's correct. The LED lights are powered from the 12V battery source. The generator is only powering the battery charger, so even when the generator cuts out, the lights are still able to run on battery power. Cheers, Nathan.

I had a Honda 3kva and it would not run everything in my van so I ended up buying a 5 KVA Redback generator this is the best on the market I pay 1600 for this generator and it runs absolutely everything in my van I can run battery charger fridge aircon microwave kettle and toaster and still does not kick out I hardly recommended as it is a lot cheaper and a lot better then the Honda and it also runs a Hyundai engine in the generator you cannot go wrong with this type of generator look into the redback generator
