Question concerning max RPM's of various generators. Mayberrys has posted that both the Honda EU2000i and EU3000is max out at 3600 rpm, but I've read posts previously stating that the 3000 only goes to 2200 rpm thus accounting for it being quieter.
Does anyone have any info for the max rpms of the various uints? That Honda EU3000is is starting to look attractive.
Mayberrys info is wrong. For the eu2000i, the idle speed with eco on is 3,000 rpm, with echo on it's 4,300 rpm. Max speed is 5,000 rpm. The Honda specs used to say the max speed of the 3000is was 3,500, but later versions say 3,800. The 3000 handi runs faster. Maybe 2,200 is the idle speed for the 3000is. I've found the most reliable specs for the Honda gens are in the Owner's Manuals, downloadable from the Honda web site. For engine speed, however, they list only the maximum.
