[TenTec] Re: new generators

["Joseph A. & Ruth O. Ryan" <ablee@bellsouth.net>]

Ben:
I used my Honda EU2000i during Hurricane Frances for power outages
lasting over 30 hours...Located in St. Augustine, Fl....
Successfully ran all my radios (thru my Astron 35A pwr supply) which consisted
of an Orion w/outboard Z-100 auto tuner, an ICOM IC-2720H {50 w} and a light.
In addition it also powered our refrigerator - several lights in the house 
- and
the microwave when needed (as long as the refrigerator was not running)..I 
would
have been able to run the toaster, but didn't need it.
ALL RAN with the Honda on ECO setting which is a 'coasting' mode at a 
little above
idle speed...only went up to full speed for a second each time the refrig 
kicked in..for
the surge.  Ran on little over 3+ gallons of regular gasoline...and the 
neighbor didn't
even know we had one until he saw my lights at nite.
Ok?

73's
Joe, KX4JR
