Honda EU3200i Generator Offers Quiet Operation In A Compact Package
Having one of our coasts on the Gulf of Mexico and the other on the Atlantic Ocean, here in Florida we like to keep an eye on backup power options during hurricane season. They’re not only useful for disasters, but they also come in handy for camping and tailgating. The Honda Super Quiet EU3200i portable generator is making its debut and it has a lot to offer.
Honda EU3200i Super Quiet Portable Generator: The Big Deal
The Honda EU3200i portable generator features a fuel-injected 3200-watt GX130 engine. That’s a step up from the 3000-watt unit, giving you that extra bit to run multiple items or get over more startup surge.
Honda tells us its Eco Throttle system offers great fuel efficiency, so you can expect to get runtimes up to 8.6 hours on its 1.2-gallon tank depending on an 800-watt load. At full load, you’re looking at 3.3 hours per tankful.
It also puts off less noise than the average conversation with operating noise levels from 54 to 58 decibels.
Whether you need a generator to power your smart refrigerator during an outage or leisure activities such as RV and tailgating, the Honda EU3200i offers stable power for all of your electronics, no matter their power sensitivity. Honda’s Inverter Technology provides the “clean” power your electronic devices need to avoid damage.
If you find yourself needing more power, Honda provides an option for a parallel kit that allows you to link a second EU3200i generator, doubling the available power to 6,400 watts. This is a good option if you want the power of a high-end generator but the space-saving features of a compact one.
Like all Honda portable generators, the EU3200i includes Co-Minder advanced carbon monoxide detection with automatic shutdown when CO concentrations get too high.
