Power generators are used to provide emergency backup and portable electrical power. The generator is composed of an internal combustion engine, electrical generator, and fuel source mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. Many power generators are portable – some are small enough to be hand-carried, while larger ones may be mounted on a wheeled frame or housed inside a vehicle trailer. Other power generators are stationary and tied into a home or business electrical system to provide backup power during power outages. Fuel sources include gasoline, diesel, propane, and natural gas. Power generators are used in applications such as providing emergency power for home and business, remote power for construction sites, and portable power for recreational use.

Honda manufactures automobiles, motorcycles, aircraft, robotics, engines, power generators, and lawn equipment. The company, founded in 1948 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, meets International Standards Organization (ISO) standards 9001 and ISO/TS 16949.

HONDA EU3000iS Inverter Generator, 2600W Review

Bought this baby over 5 years ago when it first came out. I needed the 2600W for a floor model 9000BTU A/C unit. The power HAD to be smooth sine wave, like home power, not modified like most gensets. This generator fit the bill nicely. I mounted it on the rear catwalk of my Freightliner, installed a RV twist plug (3 prong)added a four-way work box with outlets and had my power! It handled the A/C unit with ease. Adding a 900W coffee maker taxed it but, it ran both seamlessly at high RPM. With the inverter it charged my batteries for my drill, my computer ran without a hitch. It was an IBM clone custom desktop. Computer, monitor and peripherals ran with no problems. The inverter allowed me run ANY digitally controlled units flawlessly. This unit WILL run a home refrigerator. I know, I tried it!

It rode on that catwalk for 4 years, through rain, snow, salty roads and intense summer heat. It quite literally took a pounding and came back for more.

On a lite load, using the Eco setting, the generator ran for almost 12 hrs. continuously. On full power, running the A/C unit, it ran for 8 hrs. before running out of gas.

Pros:
1) 4 stroke gas engine. Very quiet at Eco setting, a little more noisy at full RPM but, I slept with no problem.
2) Easy start with key, if the battery goes dead, the pull start is smooth and easy.
3) Weather-RESISTANT (not weather-proof) outer shell. All was well with the weather cover installed.
4) 120 volt smooth sine wave (house) power.
5) Easy oil changes.
Cons:
1) Will run on regular but, premium gas ensures smooth operation.
2) Uses oil. Maybe it's just mine but, I had to add oil at least twice a week when I used it every day for 8 hours. Crank case holds about 3 pints.
3) Difficult to add oil. Needed a curved spout, very narrow funnel.
4) Hard to start in extremely cold temperatures (0 degrees and colder). I attribute that to being on the back of a semi speeding down the inter-state in January in North Dakota!

Over-all, even with the cons, I give this unit a 5 star rating due to it's dependability, and durability.
