Honda generators are the quietist I ever heard.

According to the specs, it can only output 3A at 12V. At 120V, it outputs 7.5A.

The OP didn't state what he's using it for, but I would say this gen is about worthless.

My $0.02

That's just the DC portion of the generator. It can output a max of 800W on AC. If you use an AC power supply for your chargers, you will still have 800w of power available at peak at your disposal, or approximately 33 amps at 24v. Or 66 amps at 12v.

A Honda 1000w can put out about 8 amps. A 2000 watt only 16.

I use my 1000w icharger off the earthquake generator. When I charge my 6s batteries, I can charge at 20 amps before the overload protection kicks in. Anything less than 6s will let me charge at almost or the full 30 amps capable of the charger
