I have a Lincoln flux core 80~90 amp? 120v welder
I normally use the Onan to power it
I have used a champion open frame 3000w generator to power it
I don't think I would try it with a Honda 2000 , unless it was an emergency fix to get me to a shop
It might work for sheet metal, don't think it would be strong enough to weld hitches or frame..etc..
Not knocking the welder, it's the lack of Power from a small generator
I've done broken hitches with my Lincoln, not a permanent repair, but good enough to carefully get someplace to make it right
You can do a lot with a small welder if you take your time
