I see in the Honda EU2200i manual, that it does have a red "blinking" overload light situation, which means there is "an abnormal in the inverter" and to take it to a service tech.
Nothing about that in the manual for my generator, and mine seems to be working properly for 120v output. (So no change in plan)

Only thing I wish my gen had is a fuel gauge. I haven't tried it, but I suppose you could remove the gas filter screen and use a home-made dip stick. I found the fuel gauge in the Honda 3000 we had to be very useful.
Honda says with theirs, if you keep overloading it big time it will damage it, and if you keep overloading it just a little, it will shorten its service life.
If we use the P2200 gen in our usual camping way, it might get a two or three hour run once a month for six months of the year October-March so that is 18 hours a year. (Solar does it in the other months)
It will have stabilizer in the gas most of the time in that scenario, or else it would just sit there with old gas in it most of the time.
