[VAC] Re: Fw: Generators



Blair is right... the 13.5 amps corresponds to a 1600 watt run value.. 
similar to the 2800 watt run value (23 amps ) for the 3000... 2000 watts is 
the max value and has a corresponding 16 amp current spec... ( see 
http://www.mayberrys.com/honda/generator/html/invertgenerator.htm     )  It 
may run on a 15 amp fuse and still be a bit much for the 2000...  If the AC 
has an 8.5 amp current for a run current though, I think the start should 
be within the 2000's capacity...Bottom line, check it with a dealer if you 
can before buying...turn off the electric idle before giving up on the 
generator....
