I'm glad Curt continues to post on this thread, he has a valuable perspective to share, IMO.
FWIW, Curt was an early "voice of sanity" regarding the champion gennies. When all sorts of wild (and false) claims were made regarding these products, Curt calmy related his own experiences and praise of the Champion 3500, and because he was a Honda owner his words carried more weight with the red-only crowd.
I also agree with him now.
I too agree Curt has been fair. Honda has been the one to set the Gold Standard for the market. Some of the Honda K/O's are giving them a run for their money (product), it seems. The way I see it from all the posts on this thread, the 2000 watt Inverter class has broken out in three groups. Those with the 79/80 cc engine, Champion being one, those with the 98 cc engine Honda being one, and many others with the 125 cc engine. 'Power House' with the 125 engine has been featured by Professor95 and others. It is said to be able to operate an RV A/C and comes with Electric Start and Remote Control @ about $699.
We wait others to give us their own experience with the Champion 2000 Watt Inverter units, what ever the color;)
Is it not a fact that one cc will only produce so much power? So yes, the Champion is the weak one. How long will Champion lag behind? Perhaps they already have a new model just waiting to come to market. As Professor95 states, he knew about the Champions now on the market Inverter years ago. I think my mantel with hold a big sock. Have I been a good boy & 77?:h
