As the Generac GP3300i and the Honda EU3000iS 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 EU3000iS compare to the Generac GP3300i.

  • Engine: The 196cc engine of the Honda EU3000iS is significantly bigger than the Generac GP3300i's engine, which has a displacement of 149cc.
  • Power: With a running wattage of 2,800 W, the Honda EU3000iS will allow to power more appliances and tools than the 2,500 running watts of the Generac GP3300i. However, compared to the 3,000 starting watts of the Honda EU3000iS, the Generac GP3300i and its starting wattage of 3,300 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 Honda EU3000iS offers a higher runtime on a full tank than the Generac GP3300i: it can operate for up to 20 hours, whereas the Generac GP3300i offers a maximum runtime of 7 hours.
  • Fuel Efficiency: With a gasoline consumption at 25% load of 0.15 GPH (gallon per hour), the Generac GP3300i is more fuel efficient than the Honda EU3000iS and its 0.17 GPH. The former's operation will therefore cost less in terms of the money spent on gasoline. 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 EU3000iS and <3% for the Generac GP3300i) and are therefore perfectly suitable to safely power your sensitive electronic devices.

Portability Comparison

  • Bulkiness: With dimensions of L22.2" x W13.3" x H18.4", the Generac GP3300i offers a much more compact experience of power generation than the Honda EU3000iS and its L25.9" x W17.6" x H22".
  • Weight: Weighing 59.5 lbs, the GP3300i is much lighter than the 130.7 lbs of the EU3000iS.
  • Portability: The Honda EU3000iS has a double handle and the Generac GP3300i a standard handle, to help you better manipulate them.

Feature Comparison

  • Starting System: These two devices can both be reliably started thanks to a conventional pull-start mechanism. However, the Honda EU3000iS also benefits from a convenient electric starter.
  • Outlets: The Honda EU3000iS and the Generac GP3300i both offer 3 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 EU3000iS's and the Generac GP3300i's product pages.
  • Fuel Gauge: Thanks to a fitted fuel gauge, the Honda EU3000iS provides instant visibility of the fuel level.
  • Technology: They both benefit from a technology that monitors the ambient CO level. For the Honda EU3000iS, it's the CO Minder technology, whereas it's the COsense® for the Generac GP3300i.
