Your last generator Maintenance Run

[3930dave]

this just reminded me to run my a bit. Ran the Honda EU2000 for a half hour hooked to about 1500 watts of roof melting cable.

Nice healthy load for your Honda :thumbsup:...... much snow up your way lately ? Looking like a green 25'th out this way.

we have about 4" of snow total. Just enough to make everything white, although it isn't enough to cover the stubble in the field.

Sounds good - Christmas card view, w/o heavily messing up the roads.

Best of the Season, to all on this thread, and TBN'ers in general

just a little back up power now with the 2000 watt. I plan on upgrading to a 6500 or 7000 watt with 240V when finances allow!

That additional power/voltage will be convenient, but I do like the size of your 2kw - pretty easy for an average person to move it around.

That 2000 is a great size for portable. I would love one but have the 3000iS for temp home power but it is heavy to haul. I can put it in the back of my pickup but I don't move it from there when going on the road. Unfortunately hard to justify another just because it is lighter.
