If one were selecting a portable generator that has all the makings of portability, power delivery, fuel efficiency, low noise and low failure rate the Honda EU3000iS generator would have to be on the short list of choices.
Honda needs no introduction when it comes to internal combustion engines no matter where they are used. Internal combustion engines have been developed for use in automobiles, locomotives, airplanes, motorbikes and other equipment here mechanical power has to be derived from fuel.
Honda took its place in the leadership over half a century ago. Apart from being the leader in the automotive industry they are making world class generators, both portable as well as permanent power generating giants that provide emergency electrical power to entire buildings and industries.
A star in the line up of Honda generators is the EU3000iS portable. The 3000 in the name indicates the maximum electrical power that the generator can produce..
The Honda EU3000iS delivers 3000 watts or 3 Kilo-watts of electrical power at 12 volts. In terms of Amperage this works out to a maximum of 25 Amperes and a normal load of 23.3 Amperes (2800 watts). It also has a DC output at 12 Volts providing 144 watts of Direct Current ideal for charging batteries.
This is probably the most silent generator in its category. With a double noise dampening system in place, this generator produces just 58 decibels on full load and 49 decibels at a fourth the load. Just to give you an idea of a decibel - a whisper in a quiet library is 30 decibels, and a normal conversation in a room is 60 to 70 decibels - that is how silent the Honda EU3000iS is at 59 Decibels max.
The generator has a wire recoil for manual start as well as an electrical starting system to make things easy for the ladies of the house.
With a 3.5 gallons of unleaded gasoline in the tank the generator can run for over 7 hours on full load and provide 20 hours of power at a quarter of the capacity.
Backed by a solid 3 year commercial and residential warranty, the Honda EU3000iS stands 22.4 inches high, 18.9 inches tall, 25.8 inches long and weighing in at 134 pounds. This is one heavy weight little "genie" that snuck into the light weight category!
