Geronimo John Posted December 21, 2022 Posted December 21, 2022 A few years ago, generators were all over our forum. Nearly all portable generators were of standard Motor/Generator design. I refer to them and my Dometic Penguin AC as "Hammer Mills". Then Honda came out with their inverter line. Super quiet, fuel efficient, and their EU 2000 watt unit with an EzStart would run our A/C units. The vast majority of us purchased the Honda inverter 2000 or 2200 units. But they were, and are pricy. Time has passed and most of us still have the Hondas that you could not pry out of our dead hands. But much less costly Champion, Yamaha and Predator inverters (to name a few) have come into play. With the OTT production rate acceleration, I suspect we have many new owners that likely would likely benefit from a revival of the topic. This thread is intended to hear from our owners their thoughts about their generator. Please touch upon the below as well as your experiences: Generator Name and Model Cost of Purchase Power Output (Rated Full Load) Ability to handle our A/C cycling while switched to "Eco-Mode".

Ollie-Haus Posted December 22, 2022 Posted December 22, 2022 I'm liking this a lot. Generators are advancing rapidly in tech and features and there are dozens of manufactures. Honda no longer owns the "quiet generator" market, and amazingly they seem to be getting smaller at the same time they are getting quieter. I have two linkable Sportsman 2200w inverter gens I bought several years ago. I'm willing to bet they are Honda knock-offs but they were really cheap, and they have turned out to be very reliable. They almost always start on the first or second pull of the cord. They are very quiet, the specs say 53 db, and of course very light weight at about 48 pounds. Looking them up I found they are now duel fuel for propane operation, and they are on sale at Tractor Supply for about $500 each. Wish I didn't already own two of the older ones. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/sportsman-2-200-watts-dual-fuel-inverter-generator-gen2200dfi?cm_vc=-10005 5 What's today?............. the most frequently asked question as a retiree 🙄 Chris and Stacie Neuhaus Greenfield, Indiana 2021 Ford F350 7.3L Tremor (Redzilla) LE2 #1373 - Ordered 10/21/22 - Delivered 05/10/23
CnC Posted December 22, 2022 Posted December 22, 2022 After looking around at our needs for our Ollie's 2000 watt inverter and its lithium batteries, we chose the 2500 Champion dual fuel inverter based on price, weight and the fact that I never plan to use gasoline in it. Note that propane wattage output is always less than that of gasoline. It took us only a short time to realize the need for TWO regulators - the normal pressure regulator on the Ollie tanks AND the back-pressure regulator that comes with the unit for attaching it to a remote tank. After some alternations, we were able to use propane regulator included with the Champion to hook up directly to the Ollie. The propane-powered unit is reasonable quiet. It runs our AC or microwave and it will provide our lithium batteries with about 28 amps of charge. While you can buy two and link them together, we have had no need to do that. We do use a null plug, which eliminates the need for grounding the unit. Note that without it, the Ollie's surge protection won't like you! We've had it over a year, but haven't had the need to use it much as our lithium batteries provide for most our needs. But, we take it each boondocking trip and at 39# it is easy to load/unload into the back of the pickup. At less than 18" high, it fits under the hard cover on our pickup. We have made LP hose and electric cord so they reach our Ollie front connections without excess. While our unit is a year old and Champion continues to change/upgrade them, it is similar to this unit, which can be viewed at https://www.amazon.com/Champion-Power-Equipment-200961-Ultralight/dp/B08L45W2V9/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2HQF8CA30OCBA&keywords=champion%2Bdual%2Bfuel%2Binverter%2Bgenerator&qid=1671671377&sprefix=Champion%2Bdual%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-3&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.c3015c4a-46bb-44b9-81a4-dc28e6d374b3&th=1 Last, but not least, I had the need to contact Champion's phone support. It took a while to get through to a real person, but he was very helpful and supplied a part that I had screwed up when altering the back-pressure regulator to fit Ollie's LP connection. He expedited the shipping and there was no charge for the new part. In short, the Champion 2500 Dual Fuel Inverter works for us.

Charlie: You are making a very salient point. As Solar and Lithium technologies adoption and capabilities increase, the use of generators is being greatly reduced. For our vintage of OTT, solar as a factory option priced us out. So boondocking made having a Honda EU 2000 essential. Now, in our case with 3 each 100 aH Battleborns, a 200w solar suit case, an upgraded PD converter, and an Orion DC/DC 30 amp charger we generally go 2 to 3 days without even unloading our Honda or needing shore power. This gives us much greater "power security". Point is that having a "Honda" is now very nice to have, not really essential. This opens the door to purchase of less pricy generators. A significant paradigm change. GJ 3 TV: 2019 F-150 SuperCrew Lariat, 3.5L EcoBoost, 10 Speed Trans, Max Tow, FX-4, Rear Locker OLLIE: 2018 OE2 Hull 342, Twin Bed.

Moderators SeaDawg Posted December 23, 2022 Moderators Posted December 23, 2022 I will offer my comments on our Westinghouse 2500 (2200 running watts) with the caveat that we have an Elite with a 9500 Houghhton ac. We have only used the Westinghouse with the Houghton once, just to test it. Won't help anyone with a bigger ac make a decision. We normally use a Honda 1000 to recharge our 2x 105 ah agm batteries. Obviously, that little gen won't run much of anything. We bought the Westinghouse because it was on sale, ridiculously cheap, and we were building a pole barn on our property in nc with no power. We used it for an entire summer to run saws, charge drill batteries, and charge the trailer batteries. We didn't charge the trailer batteries with anything else in use. It's pretty quiet. Not as quiet as our now 15 year old Honda, which has also become louder, but still pretty quiet. Meaning, you can have a conversation without shouting, without a long extension cord. It is a bit louder this year than last. Not a lot, but I want to be honest. We rarely camp in organized campgrounds. It's been fine, it's cheap, it has a number of nice features, and if someone stole it next year, it wouldn't break my heart. We got plenty of heavy use out of it, for two years. Yes, I'd be upset, but on sale, replacement would be around $400. I can lift it in and out of the truck, and carry it up a hill, as a smaller but fairly strong woman, for my size, and I can pull start it by myself. Those features, I really like. It can run most if the day on one tank of gas, even powering saws. And, it has a display to tell me low fuel, etc. Edit to add, right now my Westinghouse is around $600. Watch for sales. But, even at $600, its a bargain, imo, for our purposes. 1 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar. DC compressor fridge. No inverter. 2 x 105 ah agm batteries . Life is good.
CnC Posted December 23, 2022 Posted December 23, 2022 1 minute ago, Geronimo John said: This gives us much greater "power security". GJ, I agree. Just in case the sun doesn't cooperate, the take-along Champion 2500 Dual Inverter is insurance as we cannot be deprived of our creature comforts. I also take a 1000 watt Yeti AND a 300 watt Jackery. After many cloudy days boondocking in Colorado a few years ago in a Sprinter Airstream, we actually NEEDED the 1000 watt Yeti as our Sprinter battery and four BBs ran "too low" to supply the needed 12.6 volts to kick in the solenoid for the onboard generator. We plugged into the 1000 Yeti as if it was shore power and used it to boost to 12.6 so we could start the onboard gen to charge everything back up... Damn, that old Onan was noisy 🤔 Charlie. 2 Arizona | 2020 Oliver Elite II Twin bed Hull #617 | 2021 Ram 1500 e-Hemi 4x4

Guest Posted December 23, 2022 Posted December 23, 2022 1 hour ago, Geronimo John said: This opens the door to purchase of less pricy generators. For us, the only reason to consider a generator is to run the air conditioner which might need a more expensive generator. The only reason we would buy one would be to power the AC to keep the dogs cool while we were on a long bike ride while doondocking . I’m not sure that this would be a good idea, but it is the only reason I can think of. So far, from what I’ve read, the new Honda 3200 would be the best to accomplish this. It would probably be easier and cheaper to just make sure we we plugged, but that’s not always possible. I will test our setup this spring and see how much run time I can get out of our 640 Ah lithionics and our 3.6 kWh external battery on a sunny day in the low 90s and the AC set in the high 70s. If I need more juice, I might consider the new 3200 Honda with a BERG external tank. Kirk

ChrisMI Posted December 24, 2022 Posted December 24, 2022 We have a nice large Honda generator for the house and two cheaper knock off units for loaning to friends/family. I find the cheaper units hit well below their weight class in performance and quality. The powerhorse 2300 I purchased from northern tool has an 80cc engine (vs the 120 on the Honda 2200) and spins pretty fast to barely run the microwave. Voltage drops pretty fast when its worked as well. Going forward we’re installing a Truma AC unit and I see three possibilities for generators… The new Honda 3200 + small, lightweight, high quality, just enough power, fuel efficient - spins faster so slightly louder and long term durability concerns? Expensive! Dual Honda 2200’s + ample power, able to run AC at a lower idle? RPM, flexible - double the weight, double the maintenance, double the packing space, double the… A single Honda 2200 and a Victron inverter/charger + small, light, easy, quiet - constantly cycling the battery bank, added stress on the inverter/charger I do not want the stress of always checking the voltage and micromanaging the loads. When I need the AC, I need it. No nonsense, all day if need be. 2
Patriot Posted December 24, 2022 Posted December 24, 2022 We opted to roll with a Honda eu3000is Inverter. This past summer, we converted this inverter to Tri fuel (LP,LNG, gasoline), installing the HutchMountain LP conversion kit. I think we paid right at $2400 and change with my military discount at Northern Tool. I don’t have a lot run time since the unit is brand new. We did a shake down here at home this past summer and really were impressed with how super quiet the unit was in eco mode while running our OLE2’s 11.5 btu Penguin. The front quick connect made for an easy fuel source delivery from our 30# tanks. This coming May right before the rally, we are having the 13.5 BTU Truma Aventa AC installed by Oliver Service. Since the Aventa has no easy start available, we are glad we now have the eu3000is inverter. Pros - It’s a Honda and it is really whisper quiet and Hondas have a very long history of being extremely reliable, clean energy, electric start, manual cord pull back up, super easy to maintain. No more carrying, treating or dealing with smelly gasoline. With the LP kit it’s a much cleaner burning engine with regard to exhaust fumes/emmisions. It’s not as portable as the smaller Honda inverters also meaning it cannot be just randomly picked up and stolen. So I list this as a Pro. (Yes I know if someone wants it bad enough, they will figure out a way). Our 1 ton TV cargo capacity can easily handle the weight of this inverter without any concerns. Strong owner reviews of the eu3000is and HM LP conversion kit. ✅ Cons - So yes, it is heavy weighing 130#. My bride/navigator and I can manage lifting this inverter off our TV tailgate into the gen basket relatively easy. It is on the higher end of cost for a generator including the LP conversion kit. A link to this LP conversion - https://www.hutchmountain.com/products/honda-eu3000is-propane-natural-gas-gasoline-tri-fuel-conversion-kit Note- installing the HM LP conversion kit you will loose the Honda warranty since it’s not a Honda product. The customer service at HM is 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 in my experience. I highly recommend this company. A link to the Honda eu3000is - https://powerequipment.honda.com/generators/models/eu3000is We also own a Honda eu7000is we purchased new which serves as our home portable back up generator. This pic is actually from yesterdays 3- hour power outage here in Western NC. We rolled out the eu7000is and it just purred along and kept us with all the power we needed to stay warm and continue on. It’s a Honda, super quiet, and extremely reliable in our 7 years of ownership. Edit 4/23/23 We sold the below Honda eu7000is after having a 24KW LNG whole house generator installed.

My wife and I both stepped into our trailer while it was running in the gen basket during our shake down and we did not feel any vibration at all and you could barely hear it.

We bought the generator for occasional power outages (with the consideration of an additional one for pairing if needed.) But have mostly used it for remote use of power tools. We added the pneumatic tire kit to move it since it is a heavy beast. Maybe I can fabricate a tongue for it and tow it behind the Oliver when we get it! 🤪 (Surprisingly, with -5°F temps, -36°F wind chill, and up to 50 MPH winds, we have yet to have our power go out for more than a couple of minutes yesterday.

Patriot Posted December 24, 2022 Posted December 24, 2022 @John Welte Oliver actually calls the aluminum basket a “storage basket”. 😉 I personally don’t have any concerns about running our (LP fueled) Honda in the storage basket. When we do run it, it will be for a short duration to cool the interior down, recharge bats, and not for an extended period of time such as sleeping. Gotta use extreme care.

LeBill Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 I have a Generac IQ2000 inverter generator. It weighs 46 lbs, is as quiet as the 2000 watt Honda. I don't think it is a current product, but may be available on the secondary market. Mine works well, starts easily, only runs on gasoline. I have used it as a backup at home, where it powers both my furnace and refrigerator as long as they both don't start at the same time. In our OEI, it will recharge the standard batteries in about 1.5 to 2 hours. 3 LeBill Elite I Hull 1352 2021 Jeep Gladiator Northwestern NC (retired)

As of yesterday according to the Manager of my local the Northern Tool warehouse in SC had 230 EU3200i gens sitting in their warehouse. Seems there should now be enough inventory for Santa to deliver you one. 😊 2 1 2020 OLEII - Hull #634 aka- “XPLOR” TV 2021 F350 6.7 liter Diesel Lariat Ultimate Tremor Retro upgrades - Truma Aventa 13.5 AC, Alcan 5 leaf pack, Alcan HD shackles & HD wet bolts, 5200lb axles.
