    Honda eu10i here.. brilliant. Everyone comments on how unobtrusive it is, although sometimes I have to bump into them a few times at the field before they even notice it's a generator.

    You'll need a bigger one than that if multiple people want to use it though, this one struggled on its auto-throttle setting to run two PSUs - The Fusion PSU had to be turned down a bit. I presume it made a dogs dinner of the input AC waveform that the inverter was trying to produce - maybe a better behaved PSU would do better.

    Great to be able to boil a kettle at the field (although it does have to be a tiny 400W one-cup one!).
    What's the biggest PSU wattage you can run off eu10i. I have 1000 watt PSU and I am not sure if eu10i can handle it at full power. eu20i is much more expensive and also weights almost twice as eui10. I am not planning to run a kettle or anything else

      I think the eu10i is 900VA for shortish periods of time, and a bit less than that continuous. I probably only take about 300W myself usually (which keeps it quiet). I only have a 450 and a 550 though!

      Definitely need the eu20i to 1000W. You can join 2 eu10is together in theory but sounds daft to me. I thought the eu20i was about £1200, £800 for the 10. If it wasn't for the weight and slight noise difference I'd have got the 20, but since I don't come close to needing the power, I went for the 10.

        Thanks, looks like I definitely need eui20.

            believe it or not,the 20i is no noisier than the 10i,we have both in our club,i have the earlier ex7 and they are all the same.the 20 is bloody heavy.
