Bridged EU2000s: how long on a tank of fuel?

Roy, why would paralleling two generators double the run time? Each engine will run the time it can on its own tank. I hope you were kidding.

I get 6-7 hours run time out of my single EU2000i on one tank of gas running minimal use items... I believe my fuel tank size is one gallon.

If I had two 2KW Honda generators paralleled together I would expect this to double or 12-14 hours...

Of course running an Air Conditioner full time would probably be a somewhat max load for the generators using more fuel...

During power failures at the cottage with the fridge cycling on and off I get 10+ hrs on a gallon. In the evening we have one light and the TV for a couple of hours.

wrong....I am running my 2 Honda's without any extended tanks (about a gallon in each) with my AC and getting 6 hrs... Just purchased my 5 gallon Bergs and will be trying it in Richmond in a few weeks.... I am hearing stories of 20-25 hrs ??? We will see...??

You may find that your generators don't load share well and one may consume more fuel than the other. There have been post here in the past and I have seen that with my Honda Eu2000s and EU 1000s.

It depends. If that AirCond is going to run almost continuous then maybe 3 hours. If the AC just cycles on occasionally then 6 to 8 hours.

About 3 hours at 100% duty.
