I can hazard a GUESS and its only a guess
at 1300 with econ off the motor runs at full throttle but without full load, the motor has a little 'breathing room' can run a little faster and NOT be on the ragged edge of lugging
with econ on 1300 is not quite enough load to kick it up to the next throttle level its using all the power the engine can produce and there's no lee-way no breathing space
kinda like holding your car at top of 3rd gear to do 50mph when it would run easier in 4th gear, NOT identical , just a loose allegory

The reason is because an inverter generator saves fuel by throttling back at lower loads. If it doesn't throttle back because the load is high enough to keep it at high rpm - then it saves no fuel.
yep, I know this. But why would runtime be less above 1300W with ECO mode ON as per this guys data?
