AC and Honda 2000

For 5 years I have been running an LG 8000 btu LW8016ER with a Honda EU2000i. I added a Supco SPP4E and the mighty little Honda runs it in ECO mode with no issues, under all conditions.

Changing to a Roadtrek and replacing the OE AC and the Onan. The Onan with likely a Honda 2200. The AC I am limited due to size to the new LG 9500 btu LW1019IVSM, this is the new dual inverter unit. This is using the new inverter unit VS the LG 8000 btu. LG is not giving out info on it such as locked rotor amps. I am assuming it will be similar to an inverter mini split but do not like assuming!

Does anyone have any inside info on the LG or any experience with the LG Honda combo? I would get one of the 8000 btu inverter units but they are all too tall.

    I’ve not heard of LG’s inverter unit (do you have a link?), but I can’t imagine the Honda 2200 (which I have) having a struggle with the new LG inverter unit, even if in the eco mode - JMO

  • I would add a year to the introduction date before I considered buying. They want to add, blue tooth, wifi, detectors, FI. All I want is electric start!

    I am partial to the 2000/2200 and never had a bit of trouble with one. Now a EV4010 would get my attention! Sold one with an RV and been kicking myself ever since!!
  • Honda is introducing a 3200i compact generator. Supposed to be available in March in Europe, then selling elsewhere after that. Might be worth investigating if you can wait on your decision.
