I like it. This is turning into a learning channel/thread. We are able to get many points of view and actual testing results. I have had lots of fun with the 'KILL A WATT (P3)'. Just this morning I plugged in the B&D Coffee Maker. It registered 122.2v 59.8hz and 980 watts to start and settled in @ 910w for the coffee maker. The 1875w Conair hair dryer on high was 1410/1412w and 415w on low. Kinda like my 1500w room heater. It runs @ 1370watts. The 1100w M/W in the MH hits up to 1375 to start with High cooking level. The Eureka Vac 12a operates @ 1030w ~
'MrRchitty' has found some interesting results with the Champion Global Power Equipment 2000i. A little different than previous posts. This will be good news to the folks a CPE. I'm told they read all the generator threads, no doubt the other brands tech folks do the same, that's a good thing. They can read to good and the bad.
I also found it interesting that 'pritch272' found his All Power 2000i to be not exactly like the Kipor 2000i and not a chonda. That's different than what I've read. Guess you can read most anything on the Net. and doesn't make it 'exactly' correct. I would like to know if the Module in the Kipor and All Power is like the Honda or more like the Champion Global Power Equipment 2000'. ~ The Honda/Yamaha/Kipor are said to use 'analog transistor induced technology, in the module, which is said to be simulated signal processing. Running cool and requiring no Heat sink. The Champion 2000i on the other hand and pictured in a recent post, has a large heat sink module, saying to me, it must operate with some amount of heat. We all know, heat kills.
