We have used the kzbin.infoUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!

I’ve had my trusty 2000i since they first came out and have used it for weeks on Ed in my RV, as well as for DJ’ing outdoor events. I haven’t used it since I’ve been grounded and stuck in the desert, and yes, I have since had to deal with carb issues ONLY because of infrequent use, so I am sooooo ready to convert my little red friend to propane! Great video and info!

Just installed the Hutch Mountain kit on my generator, it didn't take much time at all. Following the instructions made it easy, it took about an hour and a half to do the job. Adjusted the regulator and the generator runs fine even under a heavy load. My thanks to Hutch Mountain for catching my shipping charge mistake, saved me some money! Took a photo of the completed conversion on my Facebook page and got a request for info. Hope I got you guys some more business.

Today I was in Utah looking for a extended run tank kit for my Honda eu2200i I stopped in Elsinore Utah at the Honda dealership and they told me about this guy that did up grades on the Honda eu generators not knowing that this was the same guy I had been researching for months now I accidentally cam across the man that actually made the propane conversion kit. After meeting the owner I will tell you this is the most honest person I’ve ever meet not only does he know his stuff but he in stalled it in about 30 minutes test runs and everything. If your thinking about doing a conversion stop thinking and just do it well worth the money. Thanks Brian

I spent days reviewing reviews, visiting websites, watching videos. Pros & cons for the 3 main kinds: convert to propane-removes gas tank, can't use gas, only propane, convert to propane-you can still use gasoline as needed, when needed; or propane. Convert to propane/natural gas; use either, or use gasoline when needed. I decided to convert to propane with the flexibility/freedom to use gasoline when/if necessary. The Hutch Mountain kit is absolutely the best kit out there. Why? Simple to install, clear, easy to follow instructions. You can't make a mistake if you read the instructions. It is a well-engineered system. The propane regulators are mounted/attached to the propane tank, a hose to the generator quick disconnect fitting. I disliked the other kits on the market that mount the regulator on the generator-BIG negative there. The kit has labels clarifying the new functions of the generator's on/off knob. The updated/improved kit installs an on/off switch that, in the gasoline mode, will allow the generator to run and empty the gasoline lines. A bit of gasoline remains in the carb bowl, but that is burned out when using propane. Everything was well thought out and designed. Took about an hour to install two kits and 3 pulls on each cord to start the two generators. Bulletproof. Highly recommend!

What would be the price comparison between using gasoline vs. using propane? Also the operating hours between the two? I currently use a Honda EG2800I generator and a portable air conditioner to save money vs. idling my semi truck during the hot season. Saves me an estimated $25.00 a day. I’m not looking to switch to propane if the cost is the same as idling my semi truck.

Question for you is - I'd rather put that $160 towards a Hutch Mountain conversion kit and fix the carburetor later - does the carburetor need to be in good running condition in order for the conversion system to function?

Propane, Natural Gas or Hydrogen Engines don't come out of tune. Gaseous fuels run very clean, no fouling spark plugs ever and spark plugs last for years, spark arrestor never needs cleaning or clogs up, oil stays cleaner on gaseous fuels engines and last longer, Liquid fuel engines flood, carbon build up not as clean burning. Look at Grenergy on you tube he tests the propane engine with a temp gun no over heating. The gaseous fuels run cooler. You will not over heat the valves or engine unless you run propane or gaseous fuels on the rich side. A propane engine it's unheard of to run to lean and burn up even with propane drag engines. Gaseous fuel engines like propane engines last 2-3 times longer. February 7 2022 propane is $2.00 a gallon. No fuel treatment or stopped up carb or starting problems of gaseous fuel engines like liquid fuel engine problems. Gaseous fuel engines look New on the inside after years of use because they burn almost 99.9% clean fuel.

I have two eu2000i's and I connect them together and I have a 30 amp conversion kit to give me 4000watts to run my Rv AC. I Have been running this with gas. Can I still keep this set up while running both on propane. And can I run one on propane and one on gas while connected together? Also I've read that when using propaneyou get less power???
@HutchMountain7 жыл бұрын
Yes!! You can run gasoline or propane & it takes less than 2 minutes to make the switch. We can even help you connect directly to your RV's propane supply. Power loss? You won't notice it with this kit, because it is the only conversion on the market that does not choke off the airflow to the engine. Even with propane having less BTU's than gasoline, it can be tuned to be very comparable in performance to gasoline. (we'll post a video) You will love running propane!! Hit us up on our website, HutchMountain.com. We would love to help you get exactly what you need. :) Don't be surprised if people at the campground don't believe when you tell them that this was a kit & you did it yourself! lol

The problem with the Hutch kit is that at best, it's bound to fail. And at worst, cause an explosion. The weakest link in their system is actually the piece that feeds the propane into the engine, which is simply a piece of 3D printed plastic... Anyone who installs that has to be genuinely insane. The Grenergy conversion kit uses a CNC machined aluminum venturi instead.

These little Honda's just sip the propane. The propane vaporization rates are more than adequate to keep up with the gen. You'll pretty much drain your entire propane tank with this setup. To your point, with a much larger gen on a smaller tank, you could run into an issue. These little guys work great on a 20lb-er. We have even tested this kit on a 1lb Coleman bottle & it worked great. We'll have to post a video. Thanks for the comment!

Where is the fuel pump shut off switch ? How are you shutting off the fuel pump ? Does your kit allow the use of the 3 way use of natural gas , propane and gasoline . If you add a fuel pump on off switch you just turn off the switch and it will run till the gasoline is out of the line and then you can turn on the lp gas .

Euls12 i think it is a bit more efficient using gasoline but the exhaust when burning propane isn't as terrible to breath, the oil stays clean much longer and propane lasts about 25 years when stored properly vs 6 months to 1.5 years with our ethanol blended fuel. On that subject the carb will probably never need to be cleaned if you only burn propane because it is unlikely to ever become clogged.

@Euls12 I can tell you from hurricane Sally that gas was hard to find. Its the first thing people go hunting for after the storm. Gas stations had no power to run gas pumps and if they did have power the lines were miles long down the road. Not kidding there! Yes you should stock up when the storm is near but here on the Gulf Coast we were caught by surprise by this little storm and its power. If I had a couple bottles of propane in the garage to get by those first couple days that would of made all the difference. Or buying a couple 30lb tanks to keep in the garage. FEMA takes a few days to get organized as do the power companies and local governments. So having the option for propane during those first few days even if it costs way more is still the ticket! On day two I had to head pretty far north to get gas for the generator. I don't have a big yard so I have a couple small lawn mowers and smaller gas cans. I just don't use much gas at home. Yes I could get bigger cans but you have to store it or use it up. I have lived on the Gulf Coast for 30 years and this storm surprised me. The eye went over my house at 4:30 am. I'm 25 miles north of the beach and it was still rough for a Cat 1, 2. However, my EU2000 ran perfect with no issues! I almost went the boat gas tank route but I'm glad I didn't. I will be ordering Hutch Mountain's propane / natural gas kit and adding a EU2200 for more power. Thank you Hutch Mountain for having a kit that works like it should and looks OEM!

Propane has a lower fuel density than gas, therefore the same amount of fuel per gallon does less work. The honda may not be able to provide enough actual engine horsepower to give the full rated output electrically speaking, however, I am not sure about that. The engine may be slightly oversized for the generator. Be that as it may, the amount of propane needed to generate the same amount of power in watts will be more, however, the benefits are long term safe storage, less expensive fuel, so in my case in Commiefornia, once gas gets above $3.50 a gallon, it is less expensive to use propane which is $2.59 a gallon. Other benifits are propane is cleaner. What I worry about is the valve lifespan. Propane runs hotter. This is why Honda voids the warranty if you convert. (Mine is old, so I don't care. It's already been revived from dead already.) This also definitely affects the performance of the circuit breaker inside a shed. Mine trips if I don't leave the shed open due to "thermalling" into trip mode.
