Honda Generators: Verified Models and Specifications
Honda is a popular name in portable generators, but Honda’s own product pages block our automated access, so we can only verify some of the lineup. This guide lists the Honda models we sourced from Honda press releases, retrieved on 4 November 2026, and says which models we could not verify. An earlier version of this page listed wattages and fuel types that were wrong, and we have removed them.

- EU2200i: 1,800 running and 2,200 peak watts, a 121cc engine and 0.95 gal tank. Honda states 8.1 hours at 1/4 load, 62 dB at rated load and 53 dB at 1/4 load, and 46.5 lb. The “2,200 W” in the model name is the peak rating.
- EU7000iS: 5,500 running and 7,000 peak watts, a 5.1 gal tank, 16 hours at 1/4 load and 6.4 hours at rated load. Honda states 58 dB at rated load and 52 dB at 1/4 load, and the weight is 263.2 lb.
Both run on gasoline. Honda does not state a price in the press releases we used.
Models we could not verify
The earlier version of this page also covered the models below. We could not confirm their specifications from Honda or from any source we trust, so we give no figures for them.
- EU1000i. The old page listed it as a 5,000 W dual fuel generator, which cannot be right for a model named 1000i. We have not added it.
- EU3000iS. Retailer listings disagree on run time and weight (for example 130.7 versus 134 lb), so we are waiting for a Honda source.
- EB10000, EG4000, EM6500SX, EB5000X3 and EM5000SX. We have no verified specifications for these, and the old page’s watt and fuel entries do not match one another.
If you are considering one of these, check Honda’s own page and a dealer.
Choosing a Honda
- Size first. Use the size calculator and the load calculator, and remember that the EU2200i runs 1,800 W continuously.
- Weight. 46.5 lb against 263.2 lb is the difference between carrying and wheeling.
- Noise. Honda states figures at rated load and at 1/4 load, but no distance in the releases we used.
