Do you guys think a Honda 2000 will run a portable air conditioner 11,000 BTU?

An honest question to those who think the op's air conditioner might harm the generator. Considering that the eu2000i has a continuous rated load of 1,600 VA, at what load do you consider that the generator will be harmed, ruined, or have its life reduced? My opinion is that running it continuously up to 1,600 VA will cause no harm.
After owning several different Honda products I would agree. It's designed to run at 1600 watts and surge to 2000 intermittently. That's why they cost more, they are durable and well designed. I have a 3000 honda and I run it full load at times and dont fear overheating it. A heavier load does exert more pressure on the engine parts but that's why I change the oil more often than recommended.
Honda all the way.
