Honda Generator Review EM5000SX

[@bruceeverett5372]

I really appreciate how you set up this video--very realistic! A chemstik or battery lantern at the CB panel is a great idea! We learn from your experience-thanks!

[@tonisam962]

Please watch this video too kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2LNhWZ3g6qBrKs please be careful using portable generators

[@chrisgil4594]

I have an em3800sx from 2005 that I bought new and it's awesome . No problems . Like they say spend the money once :)

[@ML-lg4ky]

Just picked up same unit for $1200 cash. 2016 with 8hrs use. Nice content

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

Wow! Good for you. A great deal. Awesome generator. We recently had a power outage. Worked like a charm. Thank you. Enjoy it!

[@clicktoclean3923]

How do you like it?

[@jacklane7439]

That’s loud but it’s a very good unit hopefully you have an inverter

[@JJHDZ68]

Hi, What year is yours? I have inherited 1, it's super clean, no oil or any other marks on it. I just don't know what date was made. Thanks for your video! Is awesome! God bless you and yours 🙏 ❤️

[@dutyhole1734]

great video i need to get one just had an outage for 4 days what a mess ! a friend lent me a eu 3000 survied with that till power was restored

[@tbone45040]

good info thanks! i'm watching this because there's a local person selling this unit for $1800. good saving compared to new.

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

You're welcome. Thanks for the comment. $1800 is a good deal. Hope you enjoy it.

[@Iisidjenejiirjrkgawdcv9888yyyt]

Thanks, brother! Great video!

[@rael5469]

I haven't watched the whole video but the viewers should know that you would also disconnect the main circuit breaker at the breaker box in the event of a real power outage, before using a generator. The reason? To protect power company employees and linemen from you back-powering the power lines with your home generator. Safety first.

[@bc2316]

He says this in the video…

[@jameskelly8786]

Great review, what steps would you take in checking a used Honda generator . Same model as in this video. Run the generator and put a load on it ?

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

Yes exactly. Good luck.

[@lenin1881]

@@johndeweyoutdoors7725 what can you tell me about the eu7000is generator about its quality

[@robertmontgomery3943]

For the money the generator should have an hour meter

[@clicktoclean3923]

I believe the latest models have Bluetooth which will track hours.

[@rael5469]

It's interesting that the 5000 and 6500 have the same engine. Must have a larger generator. Still, that's interesting.

[@davemacy-cm2st]

Would you buy this instead of a natural gas whole house backup?

[@tonewalljaxon7062]

because our home is all electric...no nat gas..

[@USMCBeirutVet]

Great vid. Do you know if you can tether it with a smaller 2000 or 2200 watt?

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

That I don't know. I only know of the smaller inverter generators that do that.

[@janetsadeghi1501]

It seems pretty loud 😯

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

This is a very quiet generator. 62-68 decibels. You can hardly hear it in the house.

[@username8171]

Very loud, i just walked past a honda 7000 w last saturday and could barely here it running

[@lenin1881]

@@johndeweyoutdoors7725 what can you tell me about the eu7000is generator about its quality

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

@@lenin1881 I'm not too sure about the EU7000is. I don't have one, and have never seen it in action. Honda generators are made well, have great engines, and are quiet. I'm satisfied with mine.

[@digitalnorbs]

Does anyone know the THD on thsoe Hondas? thx

[@ElizabethFernandezArnold]

I have trouble getting spark plug out to change. Does this engine have a 5/8 spark plug?

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

Hi, thanks for the question. No, it is 13/16. Actually, it seems pretty straight forward to get at. The cable comes off easily on mine. Good luck with the spark plug change.

[@rael5469]

Interesting....it says maximum temperature 104 F. Good to know. It also says do not operate in rain or snow. Ah hah. So what if your power goes out in winter......will this start in sub zero temperatures Fahrenheit ? And if it does start in sub zero F what about snow? What good is this thing if it won't work for exactly what you bought it for?

[@DirtRoadLanding]

Sad that these generators are now made in China and not in Japan.

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

Yes, that is unfortunate. China has a hand in anything made for the U. S.

[@muxxor9492]

What about the Honda inverter generators?

[@johnr5545]

Thanks god bless

[@nathanratchford9996]

What gauge is your generator cable? 10?

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

I don't recall. I purchased the cable and ends from Home Depot to make my own power cord. I asked the clerk working there and he told me the best size.

[@beverlymcclellan675]

Why can't I get the generator to charge

[@cayrick]

If reliability is important to you get rid of the CGFI outlets.

[@rael5469]

Why?

[@cayrick]

@@rael5469 My gen is in an enclosure for emergency power outages. The fan to cool the compartment is plugged into one of the two GFI 110 v. outlets. The generator connects to a backup battery system (inverter/charger) through a transfer switch in the event of extended outages where the batteries are no longer able to supply power.the generartor feeds into the inverter/charger instead of utility power. In my case during a recent extended outage the GFI's tripped while unattended and the cooling fan stopped. Fortunately I heard the difference in sound and intervened. The next day I switched them out for regular outlets. Can you imagine if a generator with GFI outlets was connected to a critical piece of medical equipment in a hospital?

How is it on fuel

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

It has a 6.2 gallon fuel tank. It runs 11hrs 1/2 load, 8 hrs full load. I have not needed it for an extended time, so I am going by the technical specs of the generator.

[@jarrydramos2444]

@@johndeweyoutdoors7725 thanks for the quick response how many times have you had to use it i have a small 2 bedroom cottage i think this should be big enough for me and if i ever get a bigger house it will still be sufficient

[@johndeweyoutdoors7725]

@@jarrydramos2444 I have only used it for 2 short outages less than 3 hours each. Yes, it would be sufficient for both.
