New 2800 Watt Generators Announced by Honda.
Honda has just released two new inverter generators in the 2800 watt range. The EG2800i and it’s brother the EB2800i. This size output is ideal for many users both in the industrial segment as well as for personal use. At only 67 lbs. these new units are ultra portable and at only 61-69 decibels they are also pretty quiet. Since they are inverter units they produce extra clean power and are suitable for use by sensitive equipment and the like.
Feature Packed.
These units are packed with rugged features like a full cage frame to protect against damage. Honda engines are known for their legendary reliability with features such as Oil Alert to shut down the engine from a low oil situation, easy starting and a USDA qualified spark arrester/muffler.
Two Versions.
Honda has two versions of this new platform and each is targeted at a distinct part of the market. The EG2800i model will be used by recreational users ranging from camping to emergency backup. And speaking of camping this unit will be ideal for RV use in powering a standard 13.5K BTU AC unit. In addition to the EG2800i model Honda will also have an EB2800i model which is their industrial model which will have features geared towards working professionals. These features include all GFCI protected outlets, individual outlet circuit protection and fully OSHA LA-ETL compliance. Like all Honda generators these are protected by a 3 year residential and 1 year commercial warranty.
