natog: I understand - the cables are the parallel option for the eu1000, & require that you use the existing receptacles on the genset. They can also be ...
There are two versions of the Gen-Tran, I think the plug will fit, but have not verified. The reason for the Gen-Tran is to have a single power source, instead...
I always camp with full hookups but think it would be nice to have the ability to cool my travel trailer off at a rest stop or while eating lunch along the...
I'm looking for a diagram or instructions that show how to wire up a homemade parallel kit that uses the banana cable ends that feed in to a box that has a 30...
It's sort of a hit and miss proposition. Mine works, but not always. to attempt to get it to work you have to turn OFF eco-throttle so the gen is at full...
... Quick step, look at the breaker in your load center. If the A/C breaker is 20 Amps, a single eu2000i will not handle it. A 15 Amp breaker would be a ...
Actually it's quite simple to make your own parallel box. Where to purchase the shrouded banana plugs can be found through the link below by opening up the...
Tom, Here is a link to some photos a guy took of his version of the box. He went the duplex plug method which is not recommended, but the wiring is the same....
http://autos.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/Honda_EU2000_Generators/photos/b rowse/c33f Follow the above link to our photo section. If you'd like me to make you...
Yep, that's a nice cord, but first let me make two points... 1) $100 on sale is pretty dang expensive for something you can make with parts from Home Depot for...
Sounds like it should work and there are other advantages as well. First let me say I run a 13,500btu RV A/C just fine on a pair of Eu2000's with a home made...
I can run my 13,500 btu AC with one EU2000 with the eco mode off. I can not run it with the eco mode on. The gas consumption is extremely high with the unit...
Yes, the 'burp' was my way of defining the generator's reaction to a sudden load increase. These things lend themselves well to personification ;) Is an RV A/C...
... Agreed. I'm fairly handy, and the net sure is a good place to find ideas and direction for DIY projects. :) ... To keep the generators in Eco mode....
Bill, Yes, with a pair of EU2000's in parallel and in eco-throttle mode you will see gas consumption decrease as neither unit is running at full speed. I get...
This is a standard Honda factory banana plug wireset. You can buy them at your generator dealer or I can procure one for you. I chose to not include a breaker...
I am currently in the process of converting my two EU2000i's to propane. The first one is essentially done, and I have now climbed the learning curve. The...
Really looking forward to hearing more about your project. I'm particularly interested in fuel consumption. Anyone know how to estimate LP fuel consumption...
Not true. My eu2000i will start my 13.5k btu travel trailer a/c just fine and it is on a 20 amp breaker. Like someone said earlier, I flip the breakers to make...
OK, the first one's done. I scapped the idea of the mixture valve through the gas hole. In fact, I scapped US Carb's mixture screw all together and installed...
David, something like this: http://www.campingworld.com/browse/skus/index.cfm?skunum=24494&src=CROS Is it safe to pull close to 30 amps through one of these?...
... I cannot start the A/C with a single eu2000i and that is with all other electrical shut off. Two start it just fine and one throttles back right after...
Natog- That adaptor is probably rated at 15 or 20 amps, max. The plug designed to go into the adaptor should only be on equipment designed to pull 15 or 20...
Another reason to use the convenience cord, or something like it. Parallel setups are designed mainly for RV and transfer switch use, not my intended extension...
Sure...plugging each appliance into its own generator eliminates the need to combine output, as long as the individual appliances' requirements are within the...
Let me make one point which could be confusing some readers... Also remember not all 13.5k btu A/C's are the same. Some are designed to start on lower powered...
