Best generator ever. Thank you Honda

Perfect…only wish it had USB connections.
Honda EU 2200 I
Purchased our generator roughly 11 months ago from our local Honda dealership and now have 25 hours on it. Although limited use at this point it came in very handy during a storm that we experienced a couple months back where we lost power for two days.
It’s extremely quiet and efficient on fuel (9hr at about 50%) and the maintenance such as oil changes are user-friendly. The controls are very simple to use. I also love the Honda generator app which reminds me of routine maintenance and can also let you know either amperage or wattage draw so that you can stagger what you run when using it for backup power. It does have a limited range of 75 feet since it works off of Bluetooth. I find it just placing my phone on the windowsill while the generator is on the deck works well. It is nice that you can shut the generator off by using your phone to let it cool down before bringing it in or refueling it. The eco-throttle is a fantastic feature as well.
My wife and I purchased this unit as it was something better for our sensitive electronic equipment and the controls are easier to operate than our Honda jobsite generator that has well over 1000 hrs on it. At roughly 50 pounds (47 pounds dry) or so it’s also a simple one-handed grab and go and it can be running and in use very quickly. Since it is better on fuel it also conserves what often is a limited resource during power outages. It has roughly triple the run time per gallon from what I’m used to. It is what you would expect from a Honda product. Just make sure your fuel is fresh and you are proactive with maintenance and it will serve you well. I’ve been using non-ethanol fuel (E-0) quite a few years now and it has greatly reduced carburetor service for all jobsite and personal power equipment at home. Thinking about purchasing another one for parallel capability and to keep at my moms house.

Love the app
Only thing I would change is I wish I could start the generator from the app even after 1/2 hr dead time. Having to go turn the key back feels like it defeats part of the convenience. Otherwise great addition to the Honda generator.
Response from developer
Thank you very much for using the app. If you kept the main switch ON position longer than 30 minutes, the app can still start the generator remotely and disconnect and connect again. But be careful not to leave it in the ON position all the time, as it will drain the battery. I hope this is helpful.
Excellent app
First off, the newest Honda EU 7000 is AMAZING! The app makes it that much better. You get all the necessary information about the generator in your dry home. All I need to do is put the key in the ignition and put it in the start position.
Nice app!
I have 2200 companion so can’t use all of app but like the fact I can turn off generator without going outside. Also like hour meter and maintenance reminder features, overall satisfied.
The best generator and a great App!
We recently upgraded from two EU2000’s to the single EU7000 and though it may be pricey, it is a VERY nice generator and well worth it! Using the APP to power on/off, view the maintenance schedule and monitor power works perfect! The only other thing I think would be nice on the App side of things would be to be able to set a generator on/off time or atleast a turn off timer.

Honda EU 2200i is insane for how small it is
This little bastard can power the ac unit on a trailer and a microwave at the same time , I love the my generator app it keeps track of all important maintenance intervals for you , completely takes away all guess work , just when I realized I have one of the best generators on the market , Honda real eases the best app for a generator on the market , match made in heaven I’d say
