"Double your power with Parallel Capability
Parallel capability is an additional benefit of inverter technology.
Using a special cable or kit, you can link two EU1000i, two EU2000i, two EU3000 Handi, or two EU3000is generators together to get as much as double the output. (Please note: you can only parallel two identical units together.)
This gives you extra power when you need it, without having to trade up for a larger, heavier generator. You get more power without sacrificing portability.
Honda also offers a special Companion version of the popular EU2000i with a built-in 30-amp receptacle. This model is designed specifically for parallel operation with another EU2000i. It's also perfect for RV and use with a transfer switch, where a 30A outlet might be preferable."
