Which Honda Generator ?
Looking to purchase a 25-30 travel trailer. I will be getting a Honda generator for it, but don't know if I should get the EU2000, or 3000 ? My use - just me.. maybe a few lights, water pump, wate...

I just busted out my EU2000i for this thread. I haven't run it in 8 months. Warmed it up and started the dometic 13,500 brisk air circa 1999 and it fired right up with a small dip in rpms. Then cycled it off and put it on econo mode and turned AC back on. Took about 1-1.5 sec of throttle up and then ran fine.
After the AC was running I switched to econo mode on gen and it only needed about 1/2 to 3/5 throttle to run the AC on high.
Of course the temp was 75 and at 1400 ft and will probably use more power at 100+ degrees.
Btw, no hard start cap on my unit till it comes in the mail tomorrow.
My honda 2000 will start my coleman just fine at 75-80F, even in eco mode. But it won't when it get's into the 90's. But the brisk air is known for being easier to start than the colemans. However, the real test is above 90 and above about 2,000ft.
