The EF2200iS is powered by Yamaha’s high-output MZ80 OHV, air-cooled, single cylinder 4-stroke engine to deliver a maximum 2,200 watts of AC output, with a maximum AC current of 18.3 amps at 120 volts. The MZ80 offers greater fuel efficiency, running a continuous 10.5 hours at a ¼ rated load. Its efficiency combined with Yamaha Quiet Technology reduces noise levels to 57-65 dBA at a ¼ rated load, allowing people to have a conversation without realizing it is running.
Don't see how Yamaha expects to "keep up" with Honda when this new EF2200is still uses the same size 80cc engine as the former EF2000is whereas Honda's new EU2200i uses a much larger 121 cc engine compared to the 98.5 cc engine in the former EU2000i. Those stated noise levels would also be a concern also, if accurate. :?
