New Honda eu3200i Security Mount now available

[Patriot]

Today I received the first initial production mount of the new Honda eu3200i security mounting system. This came after weeks of collaboration, exchanging measurements and photos, emails and phones calls with fittingdesignsco@gmail.com.

Note: You will need to modify your cargo box to use the key to unlock the puck mount. This will require drilling a hole in the side of the cargo box in order for the key to be inserted to unlock the puck mount. The base plate of the mount will also need to be be bolted down in the cargo box. I will add additional photos of mounting this gen security system when we return home from the rally. The unit pricing is $375.00 plus tax shipped to the lower 48. If interested, please contact the company at 530-913-2271 if you have further questions or wish to place an order.

Curious;  do you happen to know if they are working on a device for the Predator 3500?  I did send them a note this morning but was hoping you might have some first-hand knowledge.  Thanks Paul (2-Hobos).

Hi Paul,

I am not sure. I will say he is pretty prompt about returning calls and emails. His focus has been developing mounts for then more portable inverters. It never hurts to ask.

Today is a gorgeous 76 degree Western North Carolina day. And a really good cool, breezy day to install this new gen security mount - https://fittingdesignsco.com/products/generator-lock-security-low-profile-mount-honda-generator-mount-predator-generator-mount-camping-travel-mount-truck-mount

Here are a few install photos. I measured and cut a piece of 3/4” thick rubber horse stall mat to serve as an additional vibration isolator.

The install was straightforward using all stainless fasteners. Due to the length of the 3200i and the design of the security tray, this was the only installation configuration I was happy with. Overall, I am really pleased with how it turned out. 

This is the tray with the puck lock, which is bolted to the bottom of the generator. When you unlock the puck, the tray lifts out of the generator basket. The basket in the next photo is the basket that receives the tray and then the tray is locked into place with the puck lock.

 

 

 

 

Do to the length of the 3200i and security tray it required a hole to be drilled to allow

full key access to the puck lock. (Warning do not loose your keys!!!!) 

I still need to finish sand off the fresh edges of the key hole.



I have ordered a custom made heavy duty cover with our Hull # on it for the 3200i from www.coversandall.com. This should arrive in a week or so. Presently Honda does not sell a cover for the 3200i. This custom cover will be much more robust than the Honda light weight covers. 

This is where the gen will live.

OK, manufacturer told me they DON'T have a locking plate for the larger Predator generators at this time.  Maybe in the future.

After installing my Honda 3200i generator security basket in the Oliver cargo tray. I decided to get a little creative and add a 3 gal rotopax spare fuel container. (Not a fan of gas fumes in our truck bed under the camper topper). I made sure to leave 5.5” of width between the rear cargo tray and the gen during the security install to accommodate the 5” wide roto pax. This allowed the 5” wide rotopax to fit comfortably in this space. You can just barely see the rotopax in the full front photo. Now I am waiting on the custom heavy duty gen cover I ordered for the 3200i to finish this mod. 
⚡️Power On!⚡️

Happy Camping!

Where will you put the rotopax while running the genset?

@SeaDawgGreat question and TBD..😊  a work in progress. Where do put your fuel container when running your gen? 

Hopefully sooner than later I am actually planning to install the www.hutchmountain.com new 3200i LP conversion kit.
That will take gas out of the picture. I am on the waiting list we’ll see. If not I may attach this mount lock onto the non exhaust side of the cargo basket to at least lock the roto pax down when running the gen. I guess if someone wants the gas bad enough they will just siphon it.

Generator roto pax security update. I added a 24” combo cable lock which secures the roto pax to the Gen handle. The cable lock is not super robust but will keep the roto pax from growing legs. The cover is secured with zip ties through the cover grommets.
 

I added a thin piece of hard foam to prevent the roto pax from rubbing the side of the gen.
