All of this talk about gnerators and batteries, and charging batteries reminds me of something. Over the years, I have ask many people in campgrounds and ask...
First of all, I'm assuming you are referring to lead acid batteries, not ni-cad, lithium, etc. I'm not sure what questions you are asking. Generally, lead...
C.S., Are you asking how suitable the EU2000 is for charging RV batteries? ... My question I have been wanting to post is how suitable are the EU2000s for...
I have a 9 month old gen. We left our boat for 8 months and just retuned. We started the gen to charge the battery and it sputtered but finally started and...
have you changed the spark plug? ... From: sailalaya <sailalaya@...> Subject: [Honda_EU2000_Generators] 2000i Won't start. We are in Ecuador and need...
... Bob, Question: Have you verified the carburetor is actually getting fuel since you cleaned and reinstalled it? Specifically, after you pulled the starter...
... Since the unit is only nine months old and was running when you left eight months ago I would bet on a gummed up carb. Either you didn't get the jet clean...
I really am not that versed on the Honda gen, although I do have a pair of 2000s. I have heard of the low oil sensor malfunctioning which would cut the ...
E2000 ran out of fuel. I may possibly have refilled with kerosene. My nose is not sensitive enough to tell the difference right now. I have two identical 5gal...
Hi, I am new to the group. I searched back to 2005 to see if the topic has been covered, but didn't see it. I am interested in having my 'soon to be purchased'...
Just turn it upside down and empty it out. Then re-fill with gas. Choke it and crank away. It will start but will take several pulls. I did the same thing with...
Kerosene will not flash as you say. You may have gasoline in both cans, or some mixed with the kero. In a message dated 2/2/2009 8:09:49 P.M. Atlantic...
Silly me,Righr after I posted it dawned on me to just upend the gen and drain it. Worked like a champ. I'll certainly take care of the look alike cans come...
On Wise Equipment web site I saw a dual feed extended run 6 gal tank with an electric? pump on top of it. I have no idea if it is powerful enough to get you...
These generators will draw fuel from an auxiliary tank but in all that I've seen they are at about the same level. Is your generator going to be higher than...
The boats main tank would be about 1 1/2 ft lower than the generator. Is that too much head whereby there wouldn't be enough suction pressure? I suppose I...

The eu2000i's DC charging output is pretty lame. Because of it being unfiltered and unregulated it is suitable only for flooded lead acid batteries. It...
Don't sell the generator short. Think about how long you need to crank a car to start it, maybe ten seconds? In an hour of charging at 8 amps you put in close...
... Well, I just plug my "shore line" into my Honda and charge my batteries like that. It is like plugging into to "shore power." Three months in the...
What a great post to balance this discussion. Is the 12Vdc output of the EU really that much worse than what the alternators do to our car and truck batteries...
Here are some numbers for the eu2000i's DC output. Being totally unfiltered, there is more than one way to measure the voltage. For the purposes of battery...
I STILL don't know you those of you who are experts approved of the way I charge my batteries while camping "out in the woods." To repeat, I just plug in the...
I have been charging my twin T105's by using an external Vector multistage charger. It can charge up to 40amps (I think the settings are 2,4, 8, 20 and 40) if...
YES, you are doing the best thing. NO, you are not missing anything. The discussion could continue to the quality of the charger in your rig, which can make a...
Can't make a comment without knowing what a shore line is. I suspect you mean the 115v line, which means you have a separate charger in your boat/camper. Moot...
