I bet Honda is coming up soon with something even better, they have only done a few improvements on the EU7000is in the last 5-6 years. The competition is getting stiff but no one has gone 100% to the Honda level. One thing that none has and Honda does: reliability.
Pound per pound the Honda EU7000 is the best generator of all time.
Hey RebelLucy
👍🏾👊🏾😎💯
I have to agree. I have one and it started my 2.5Ton AC without a softstarter with no issues. I installed one anyway and there is barely a hiccup when it kicks on. I use it with the "Generlink" connector to the house. I tried a buddy's standard 8000W generator and my LEDs had a flicker to them and my Battery backup UPS for my office (computers/router etc) kept beeping if the AC kicked on, or the stove element kicked on. The Honda had none of these issues. And the Honda can run in my driveway or backyard and I can't hear it with the windows closed (A/C running). Hardest part with the Honda is getting one as they are hard to find in my area (Ontario Canada).
You know Honda is the best when you hear competitors say theirs is just as good or better than the Honda. Seems Honda is the bench mark. If Honda is too expensive then simply don’t buy one.. but you must admit the quality is there. For those that probably won’t regularly use a generator, a less expensive brand is a wise choice.
Thanks for posting Gavin, 👍🏻👊🏻👏🏻
You might see my comments on others that create videos on the same generator. I personally have the same generator. Just an older model. Mine doesn’t have the blue tooth capability nor the CO minder. Mine runs full rail all the time with the eco throttle off. I don’t need the CO minder because mine is permanently outside my house in it’s own “house” if you will.
I had an electrician install an interlock in my circuit breaker panel like your set up. Instead of an inlet on the side of your house? I have my inlet inside the generator house. That way no one can tamper with the generator or the cord. Mine is grounded to a ground grid. Something you might consider if you plan on leaving your generator on for long periods of time. (There is a ground lug on the frame below the control panel on the right hand side). Generators can create static electricity & if let to run for extended periods of time could shock whoever touches the metal part of the generator. Hence the ground lug. Consult an electrician about grounding your chassis.
I’m a firm believer that the Honda EU 7000 is is THE BEST generator on the market! Lots of folks like to compare their generators to the Honda but Honda continues to be the innovator. I currently have a hard start capacitor that I had installed for my older Trane 2-1/2 ton condenser. I have heard great things about the soft start. Next time my A/C mechanic is at my house I’ll have them swap that out.
Thanks John thanks for watching
The Hondas are great generator pretty much you buy one for life
As usual great content Gavin! Hondas are always the king IF you can afford one! But if you can swing it they are great! Thanks as always! 💪🏿👍🏿
👍🏾👌🏾🙏🏾💯😎 Yessir
Nice demo. I wish all generators were that quiet. I've got to invest in one of those soft starts for my RV. It would be nice to run one of my A/Cs with my little generator. But, prices are going higher and my income isn't. I'll have to add it to my Christmas wish list for now.
Hopefully the AC manufacturer just start incorporating the soft start to their units
Thanks Tom👍🏾💯
Honda products are absolutely awesome but you pay the price for quality!!!!!
The Honda is impressive, and it did do it better then the Yamaha although the Yamaha was impressive considering its a bit smaller inverter.
This video shows you just how good the Genmax 6000 is to be honest. Fraction of the price, 240V output, and running watts of 5250 which is just shy of this Honda. The Genmax also weights a lot less and just as silent. The only bad part is probably the reliability, if it breaks I’ll just buy another one because it’s cheap. Oh, the Genmax 6000 is also dual fuel.
Just wait till you see what Genmax has coming out!! ohhh it’s Awesome I can’t wait!!!
@@GeneratorReviews I know right. Another point for Genmax's price. When the new sposely 7000IED comes out, if the weight is about the same, and selling the 6000 would be super easy because of the low price point.
@@GeneratorReviews You don't know when is coming the new genmax?
@@josesantiago9287 I don’t have an exact date but hopefully it’s pretty soon maybe next month
Surprisingly, My Honda 7000 can handle one of my two ac units at a time... There is a surge when it kicks on but then settles down and runs... When our power is out we run the downstairs AC during the day, and the upstairs AC during the night... This is without a soft start on either unit... I don't understand how or why it works but I'm thankful it does...
Obviously your mileage may vary...
What size are your ac units? I have a 5 ton down and 2 ton up Carrier and considering soft starts with a Honda EU7000.
David, nice video. We talked about fuel efficiency at different loads. Maybe future testing could incorporate GPH estimate powering loads ?
Thanks again
Gavin, I would love to see you load test this on your RV and throwing as much at it as it can take.
I'm glad you redid this video. Still not sure if I should try my EU7000is with my 4-ton with EasyStart 368. The bluetooth app shows my startup as 55A with the easy start, but running is about 14A. This means the Honda would have to surge to about 11kw to meet the inrush.
The 55 A is coming from the soft start capacitor whatever the Honda gives it will make up the difference
@@GeneratorReviews Well, I hooked up the generator today and tried to start the 4-ton HVAC with the EasyStart and it didn't work. The EasyStart errored out. I was using gasoline with eco mode off and all breakers off except the air handler and the condensing unit. I set the fan to on instead of auto and it was drawing about 300W per leg. Then I set the thermostat lower and the AC tried to kick in but only the fan on the condensing unit ran. The compressor wouldn't run. I tried it twice with the same effect. After unhooking the generator and putting utility power back, the HVAC worked fine, with last startup on the EasyStart app showing 50A. Just too much for the Honda.
@@browsedeweb8834 you’re probably gonna have to let your EasyStart learn for a while before trying again
Great video Gavin please keep them coming I learn something new every video you post
Which generator at any price range in this segment feels like a tank in build quality beside this one ?
Holy quiet. I thought my duromax 9000 inverter was quiet. But damn
What is your ac RLA and LRA nameplate values? I have a 5 ton Carrier with 26.4 and 134. I am considering a setup like yours but not sure if it will work.
I am looking for someone on youtube observing the energy that comes from this Honda with an oscilloscope to see just how nice the output waveform really is. I tried calling Honda early yesterday to ask about the Honda EM6500SX, and their help line employees do not have a clue if it is a modified sine wave or a pure sine wave output. Honda does not prominently display the type of output on their boxes or in their literature (modified sine wave or pure sine wave). I do not know why they keep it a secret.
This is a nice Generator, but man this thing is Spendy. I could not justify this price but would love to have it.
I came across your video which I found very helpful in installing my own EasyStart for my 4 ton AC unit. My next step is to figure out which generator to get. Can you let me know what is the InRush reading of your 5 ton AC unit that Honda EU7000is was able to run? Thanks in advance!
I don’t think the 7k will be enough to get the job done but a 9000w or 10500w works perfectly.
My inrush for the 5ton was 132 before the soft start.
@@GeneratorReviews My 4 ton was at 130 before the EasyStart. After installing the EasyStart, it's been consistently pulling 42 start peak amps. I was hoping that the EU7000is could work.
Hello Gavin, I am trying to find a inverter generator 220/240 watts and 50hz as I will be using it in Jamaica, please help me to find one
Is your AC a 2-stage compressor? That makes a big difference. My 4-ton Goodman is 2 stage. It pulls 10.1/12.8 amp for 1st and 2nd stage but the inrush current is normally 122 amps measured with a clamp-on meter. But adding a hard start kit reduced the inrush to 63 amps. At that level my generator which can produce 6850 watts on Nat.Gas could start the AC compressor if the inside fan was already running and nothing else was on in the house.
This is a single stage compressor
@@GeneratorReviews You did great!
Galvin, great video! Thank you! I like to know if you will be reviewing the DuroMax 12000 Watt / Max 15000 Watt Portable Generator Dual Fuel Hybrid Electric Start | XP15000EH? Or if you have, please paste a link. Also, I wonder if you've looked at the Generator Zombie Box. This product looks great but wanted your thoughts or review on this product. Thank you so much!
I can build you one and ship it to you
Can I wire this to the new eu32 also so that I have a full 10K I can send to the panel? I'm going to put my interlock kit on later this week. Wanted to wait for an electrician but they charge too much so am following youtubes. thanks
I don’t know if one being only 120 V and the other one being 240 V that might be a problem.
Do you turn your breaker switch off before you turn. You're generator off? Or after?
Just the large loads I make sure the central air is off since it’s the largest one
@@GeneratorReviews oh okay so I've been, trying to figure out why my eu7000is. Would overload when I turn my 3.5 ton ac on. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. So I need to have the circuit protector off when I turn. My ac on?
Hey Gavin, do you think the Honda could run your 5 ton AC & blower for hours without overloading? Thanks for all your testing videos!
I think the 9000 watts does a better job when it comes to powering the 5 ton ac for long periods of time
Can we run 5hp electric moter
On hydralik meachen
Yes, that shouldn’t be a problem 👍🏾
Do you think the EU7000 will run a 3.5 ton AC without a soft start…?
No, I don’t think it will won’t have enough amps to start the AC compressor
Why does this sound quieter then my duromax 9000xp but it's the same DB
🤔ahhh Because it’s quieter than the Duromax the Honda and the powerhorse are crazy quiet
Will it run your oven, or dryer?
Yes, it will around the oven or a dryer
Mine only gives me trouble. Im about to chunk it!!!
Why?
