Paired up a new Honda 2200 with a 5-year-old 2000, and it works fine. Actually, a 2200 with 2 other 2000s for a grand total of 6200w max.With just 2 in parallel I cannot run the microwave and the air at the same time. With 3, no problem. Hardly a sag at all in Eco mode.

How did you parallel all 3 at the same time? is there a kit for that now?

They are pretty darn hard to kick out. Yes, I plug them all in before starting any generator. I think you can buy your own banana plugs if that's a concern. Let's just get that out of the way first.

The EU2200's hit the market then suddenly all gone due to a recall. I haven't seen any available locally in Canada recently. Can you give a bit of a review on your thoughts on the new 2200 vs the tried and true 2000 which is what I have currently. I have seen a few videos and one thing I noted is the 2200 has a different sound. Thanks in advanceDaryll

Don't really notice much sound difference, but they're all running at the same time. Later today I can fire it up by itself and have a listen. I *think* the oil fill hole may be larger which means I can't use my handy oil change aluminum spout to make oil changes easier. Not sure about that yet.

For sure would be keen to hear your thoughts. I also bought a custom aluminum spout back in the day. Would be sad if it didn't work on the 2200 also

I ran it alone and didn't really hear much difference. The on/off switch has a 'click' on it to turn off.

I have the all new EU2200i and it sounds the same as the many EU2000s I've owned.

Here's a video on it.

As for pairing up non identical or brand units it can be done. My son a an EU2000i and added a B&S 2200 inverter and they work fine together. Funny thing is his Honda will power up his compressor while the B&S will not even though it has a higher rating.
