GENERATOR SELECTION

There are many factors you should consider when selecting a generator.

Inverter Generators

HONDA Inverter Technology means stable, clean power in a smaller, lighter package.

Inverter Technology is available on 5 HONDA generator models.

Look for the 'i' after the model number. Computers and power-sensitive testing equipment require what is referred to as 'clean' power. 'Clean' power is electrical current that is consistent and has a stable 'sine wave' or signal. In order to overcome this problem, HONDA engineers developed a revolutionary form of inverter technology. This process takes the raw power produced by the generator and passes it through a special microprocessor. This means you can operate a computer or other sensitive equipment at a remote location without the fear of interrupted service or damage to the equipment. Using Inverter Technology, HONDA engineers have integrated parts from the engine and generator set, such as the combination flywheel/alternator. This results in a more compact and lighter product that is purpose-built to make clean, reliable power.

HOW WILL YOU USE THE GENERATOR?

The Honda EU Series inverter generators are primarily designed to be used for Home back up (i.e. emergency power) and for Recreational use (RV, camping, boating). The Super Quiet EU generators are quiet and easily portable.

DURABILITY AND QUALITY OF CRAFTMANSHIP

Quality and reliability are critical when selecting a generator. Honda generators have a well earned reputation for reliability and durability. Honda products are tested extensively and manufactured using the best quality materials. Honda generators offer dependable power and keep on running year after year.

EASE OF STARTING

All Honda generators are powered by their reliable 4-stroke engines. Honda engines are legendary for being easy to start. A number of models offer electric start as an added convenience. Electric start models include the EU30iS and EU70iS.

SIZE AND EASE OF TRANSPORT

Precise Performance

Consider how you will be moving and storing the generator. Look for compact lightweight models, and handles on the larger models.

POWER OUTPUT QUALITY

Voltage regulation controls the power output of the generator . Consistent power is extremely important. Fluctuations in power can cause equipment to shut down or even damage the appliance.

Honda Inverter Generators produce the cleanest power of all. These units are ideal for sensitive electronics, such as computers. Inverter generators offer a number of other benefits, including less noise, lower weight, and greater fuel efficiency as compared to traditional models. Honda revolutionised the use of inverter technology in portable generators with their Super-Quiet EU series.

FUEL EFFICIENCY & RUN TIME

Honda Inverter generators feature their Eco-Throttle, which automatically adjusts the engine speed to match the power needed. This allows for maximum fuel efficiency. Because EU generators are so fuel efficient, they boast incredibly long run times, as much as 20 hours on a single tank of gas.

NOISE LEVEL

The noise level of your generator is a major factor in determining the right model. Many areas have noise regulations that may impact generator usage, particularly at night. Noisy generators are unsuitable for many applications, including camping, powering outdoor events, and RVing. Most generators are labelled with a decibel rating. For every 10 decibel increases, the noise level is 10 times higher. A generator that runs at 70 decibels is ten times as loud as a generator that runs at 60 decibels. Honda 4-stroke generators are renowned for their quiet operation and reliability.
