As the Ryobi RYi2322 and the Honda EU2200i do not share the same manufacturer, their overall build and technology in use can vary.
Power Comparison
The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the Honda EU2200i compare to the Ryobi RYi2322.
- Engine: The 121cc engine of the Honda EU2200i is significantly bigger than the Ryobi RYi2322's engine, which has a displacement of 80cc.
- Power: As both the Honda EU2200i and the Ryobi RYi2322 share the same running wattage of 1,800W, they will both allow you to simultaneously power the same appliances. However, compared to the 2,200 starting watts of the Honda EU2200i, the Ryobi RYi2322 and its starting wattage of 2,300 W will give more power to start the appliances which require an additional boost to get their motor running.
- Runtime: When loaded to 25% of their max capacity, the Ryobi RYi2322 offers a higher runtime on a full tank than the Honda EU2200i: it can operate for up to 10.3 hours, whereas the Honda EU2200i offers a maximum runtime of 8.1 hours.
- Fuel Efficiency: At the same load as mentioned above (i.e. 25%), both generators will approximately burn 0.12 gallon of gasoline per hour. Inverter generators like these 2 are of the most fuel efficient (and quiet) type.
- THD: Both generators offer a low THD (<3% for the Honda EU2200i and <3% for the Ryobi RYi2322) and are therefore perfectly suitable to safely power your sensitive electronic devices.
- Noise: There's an important difference in the emitted noise between these 2 generators. In fact, the Honda EU2200i produces as low as 48 dBA, but the Ryobi RYi2322 is rated for a minimum dBA of 57.
Portability Comparison
- Bulkiness: With dimensions of L20" x W11.4" x H16.7", the Honda EU2200i offers a much more compact experience of power generation than the Ryobi RYi2322 and its L22" x W12.5" x H19".
- Weight: With a weight of 47.4 lbs, the EU2200i is slightly less heavy than the RYi2322 (which weighs 51.9 lbs).
- Portability: As the Ryobi RYi2322 benefits from a built-in set of wheels, it is easier to move it once on the ground than the Honda EU2200i, because the latter doesn't have one. The Honda EU2200i has a standard handle and the Ryobi RYi2322 a telecospic handle, to help you better manipulate them.
Feature Comparison
- Starting System: Both devices can get running via a conventional pull-start mechanism.
- Outlets: The Honda EU2200i and the Ryobi RYi2322 both offer 2 AC outlets. None of them feature GFCI outlets. The latter also offers a DC output. In addition, it is worth noting that they both only produce 120V. For more detailed information regarding all their respective receptacles, refer to the Honda EU2200i's and the Ryobi RYi2322's product pages.
- Data Center & Fuel Gauge: Each of these 2 portable generators is equipped with a data center allowing you to conveniently monitor some aspects of the power output. Besides that, thanks to the digital fuel fauge provided by its data center, the Ryobi RYi2322 provides instant visibility of the fuel level.
- Technology: They both benefit from a technology that monitors the ambient CO level. For the Honda EU2200i, it's the CO Minder technology, whereas it's the CO DETECT for the Ryobi RYi2322. Besides that, these 2 products offer a mobile app, which allows you to conveniently keep an eye on all their stats. You can use the My Generator app for the Honda EU2200i, and the GenControl app for the Ryobi RYi2322.
