Buy the yammy 2400 can't go wrong with the Genny or the dealer (mom). Do it.
You can parellel with yammy's as well.Us Honda models can be connected together with a parallel cable 2-2000 watts together only need to pack one unless you know you need ac +the are only 930 bucks each in the usa
that is the biggest difference between honda, yamaha, and the clones. with the first two, you won't need parts in 2 months...lol. when I bought my 3000 honda the dealer hands me a bag with manual and a special 10" long spark plug wrench and says "put these in a safe place, because in 10 years when you need to change the plug you will need this wrench..."Sooo beware of the ones "just like" honda.. I had my arse reamed out from a lady who bought a "honda like" generator. the sales man said oh ya.. easy to get parts.. so she came and asked me.. she couldn't understand why after only 2 months her generator wasn't working, and why I didn't have parts for it.. "but it looks just like that one".. ya.. close but no cigar.. or parts..
Thank you PowderStew!! let me know..
haha true story. I've had my 3200ie for around 6 years. I have no idea where my big ol spark plug wrench got to. Might have to borrow yours if I ever need one.that is the biggest difference between honda, yamaha, and the clones. with the first two, you won't need parts in 2 months...lol. when I bought my 3000 honda the dealer hands me a bag with manual and a special 10" long spark plug wrench and says "put these in a safe place, because in 10 years when you need to change the plug you will need this wrench..."
that is the only "complaint" I have with the 3000 honda. I think I read it's 130+ lbs. it's a good grunt to get it onto the tailgate of my truck by myselfIf you want "suitcase" portability, you would have to stick to the 1000 or 2000 Honda / Yamaha. The 2400i isn't "suitcase" carry-able, but it's a lot easier to muscle around than the 3000 Honda (which is a GREAT genny BTW). I think it is 70ish lbs.
Atleast you have gravity on your side getting it out, getting it in is a different story ..................that is the only "complaint" I have with the 3000 honda. I think I read it's 130+ lbs. it's a good grunt to get it onto the tailgate of my truck by myself

I'll go the extra few bucks and buy the Jap machine every time. Time proven.Gunna throw another one into the hat.... You can get a boliy with electric start and remote start for 1899$ and u have heard great things.... We had a non e-start at work and was a great little unit
