Aipower Yamaha VS Aipower 2000 CHEAPEST inverter generator IS IT WORTH THE EXTRA MONEY??

[@jege41]

Nice video, thanks My conclusion is that they are exactly the same, same factory, same components, you are paying for the Yamaha name with the blue one, that's it. It would cost more to have a different assembly run than it is worth IMO. Day shift cranks out Yamaha and night shift cranks out the other.

[@georgec4917]

I think the plus on the Yamaha engine is costco sells it, and have a great return policy if it takes a dump or your not happy with it.

[@johnnysweekends]

Yea Costco is great for returns…👍🏼 Thanks for watching 😀🤙🏻

[@mychan3734]

I believe it’s more about longevity with these two, the Yamaha powered will probably last a lot longer because of it’s quality.

[@johnnysweekends]

I would agree with that, but for the most part when I see these die or when viewers reply the thing that dies is the ability to put out power. So for the most a electrical issue is the cause and probably the inverter board that has failed I would assume.

I have the Red one, 3 years and moderate run time. Carb cleaned once, thanks for a good review

[@johnnysweekends]

[@GibsoLesPaulStandard]

When you ran both generators it did double the sound. The way the logarithmic decibel scale works, every 3 dB change is equivalent to doubling the energy of the noise. You went from about 61 to 63.5 which is nearly doubling the energy.

[@johnnysweekends]

This is true but humans do not detect this. They only perceive double when it’s about 7 db louder.

Yamaha says their mz80 has cast iron cyl sleeve. That maybe where the cost difference comes in. I dunno if the others are plated or also iron but generally the cheaper motors are plated vs the commercial engines being lined with cast iron.

I don't own one of these generators, but all of my "American branded" lawn equipment has Chinese made engines. I have been using them for almost 12 years and they are still running great. My biggest concern with buying an unrecognized brand product is that parts may not be available when needed. Other than that, if the reviews are good I would have no issues with the Chinese made engine.

[@johnnysweekends]

Yea some models or brands stick around for years and others fail so then there is the problem . So really it’s how you plan to use the item really.

[@etubrutus3501]

I’m a small engine mechanic. It doesn’t matter if they look similar or run similar when new. Spend the $200!! If taken care of, your Yamaha engine will last the rest of YOUR life. The Chinese knock-off will not have the quality internals or precise clearances required for longevity.

[@johnnysweekends]

Nice, what did you see internally that’s different? Cast or forged piston? Better quality bearings ? I assume better crank assembly?

[@Chiortik]

Possible since I have had a couple requests lately

[@afreemanreigns]

Walmart has the Yamaha version for $ 500 (we just got one as a backup) so maybe not that much difference out of pocket too. I remember some years back 10 or so when I first saw a south Korean made Honda Trail 70 in Miami. So after S. Korea got the blueprints out of Japan for the Honda QA 50, and the CT 70's it was only a matter of time for more blueprints to find there way out of Japan. At the end of the day or in this case a few years the generator with that Yamaha name on it will be worth more I believe, then again not much last no matter the brand/name it seems.

[@tristanschaper281]

Great video! I own the Yamaha 2000, and have worked on a friend's I-Power 2000 (with Yamaha engine) when it needed a carb cleaning. Absolutely amazing how the small inverter gen market has all copied each other over and over. It seems to be mostly a marketing approach, and price point. Speaking of which, I would like to see a comparison of the Generac 3000 or 3300, against the same Craftsman 3000 or 3300 inverter gens. The Craftsman is made by Generac. They have 99-100% identical specs on watts, engine, and weight. But the Craftsman is typically listed for about $100 more!! Either way, they seem to have some of the highest KW ratings for "suitcase" style inverter gens.

[@johnnysweekends]

Yes for the most part a lot of these are the same. Yamaha I think just decided to sell a lot of engines to who ever wants them. But they have done this for years even when I worked in the watercraft industry they sold jet ski engines to other manufacturers. So it’s nothing new but I don’t see a exact copy of a Honda to be honest. At first I thought there was copies but no. The generac and craftsman’s will also be the same but a different case but sometimes the electronics will be different like different features and maybe different inverter board allowing more power. I will try and add those to the list…👍🏼 Thanks for the comment and thanks again for watching 👍🏼😀

Could Senci (the maker of AI Power) actually be a contract manufacturer for the Yamaha 80cc engine? Looks like this and the Senci are from the same factory. Who knows if any of the internal spec of QC is better on the Yamaha engine.

From what I saw, the red normal one has a Chinese clone engine and the Yamaha is a Japanese good engine. I think what it comes down to is longevity. I bet that the Yamaha will last 10 times longer. So if you are only going to run it once a year, go with the cheap one. If you are going I use it a lot and need one to last a long time, go with the Yamaha.

[@johnnysweekends]

Yea the only way to tell is to tear it apart which I don’t really wanna do. But back when I worked in the marine and water craft industry and worked on Yamaha seadoo and Kawasaki a brand came out for a bit called mastercraft wetjet duo it was a knock off brand that lasted maybe 2 or 3 years. The power plant was a direct Yamaha jet ski engine and electronics but all Yamaha stamping was removed. I assume today Yamaha still sells engines along with other companies just with the stamp removed because so many other items need a power plant. So by looking at them I bet it’s the same engine but only way to be a 100 percent is a tear down. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching 👍🏼😃

The only problem with clone engines is that the metals used may not be the same quality than the original engine, so if the Yamaha runs for 2000 hours with little to no wear, the clone may be worn out at the same time with the same oil due to low quality metals in the internals of the engine.

That will come out in the wash, substandard parts will equate to substandard performance. It's a fact that cheap bearings make more noise as do unbalanced cranks. So the fact they produce the same. Results is likely an indication there is also little variation in longevity.
