Agreed!
I really like the EU1000, perfect size for a Vanagon.

Cheaper and louder.  The Honda is significantly quieter (53db v. 62db at no
load).

And... it's a Honda.  I have one of the original Honda generators, like the
EU1000, that I bought back in the early '80s.  Still running great.

Cheers,

Jeff

While it may not be quite as popular as a Honda or Yamaha the price is much
better.

Hello,
By now a lot was recently written about generators. But what is the best up
to 2000 watts geenerator with the cleanest power output, low noise level,
fuel consumption, longest life, best weight to power output ratio and the
best for charging the batteries ( I am gravitating to selecting OPTIMA
YELLOW TOP battery )? The cost is of no concern for me who will get on 6
month trip around Europe.
Thanks in advance,
Ark
