NorthStar portable generators From 5,500 watts to 15,000 watts with electric start, NorthStar portable generators are the ideal solution for every need. They are equipped with Honda engines for quiet performance and outstanding reliability. Less than 5-percent distortion at full load and copper-wound heads provide clean power for safely running sensitive electronics. A full bank of up to 11 outlets allows for powering more tools, appliances and essentials. Full roll cage with anti-rip mounts and an advanced V-mount vibration isolation system offers superior protection and durability. NorthStar portable generators are backed by a 4-year consumer limited warranty; a 2-year commercial limited warranty; and a 3-year limited warranty on the Honda GX engine. Great Plains Honda EU3000i Handi generator The Honda EU3000i Handi features a design that results in a lightweight, compact and truly portable generator with outstanding benefits. The most significant benefit is the intersection of portability and output. Producing 3,000 volt amperes (VA) — or watts — of power, the EU3000i Handi meets a variety of power needs for homeowners, campers and RV users. With 2 wheels, foldable handle, 77.6-pound dry weight and tow weight of only 17.6 pounds, one person can pull or move the Handi easily. A new resonator produces extremely quiet operation of only 65 decibels at the rated load, resulting in peaceful campsites and quiet home backup. Fixed handles on either side of the generator result in easier loading, unloading, and carrying, and an offset handle position provides easy lifting. An Eco-Throttle allows for a fuel-efficient 3.6 hours of operation at the rated load. The unit's maximum output can support an RV air conditioner rated at 13,500 BTUs. Integrated on/off control provides ease of operation. A centralized operation system with the control panel and recoil start located in one place makes the generator easy to operate and monitor. An LED convenience light illuminates the control panel, making it easier to operate and monitor the unit in low light or dark. Honda Power Equipment Honda engines for pressure washers The Honda GX Series of general-purpose engines — GCV190LAN5AP, GX200TQAPW and GX390T1QAPW (pictured) — are specifically and solely designed for pressure washer applications, providing smooth and reliable power to a variety of residential and commercial pressure washers. All 3 engines have been expressly tuned to provide maximum pressure washer output and feature exclusive components designed to match the needs of pressure washer users. Maximum power for the engines is achieved via improved engine cooling, while special induction components enhance engine breathing. In addition to low emission levels, Honda engines are some of the quietest, easiest to start, most fuel efficient, and most durable of their kind — even in harsh commercial and construction environments.
