As the SC2000i and the SUA2300i are both A-iPower generators, they benefit from the same level of quality and attention to detail.

Power Comparison

The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the A-iPower SC2000i compare to the A-iPower SUA2300i.

  • Power: With a running wattage of 1,800 W, the A-iPower SUA2300i will allow to power more appliances and tools than the 1,600 running watts of the A-iPower SC2000i. Moreover, compared to the 2,000 starting watts of the SC2000i, the SUA2300i 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 running at a 50% load, the SC2000i enjoys a higher approximate runtime on a full tank than the SUA2300i. It can deliver power for around 7 hours, whereas the SUA2300i will be able to power your appliances for around 6.5 hours.
  • Fuel Efficiency: With a gasoline consumption at 50% load of 0.17 GPH (gallon per hour), the SUA2300i is less fuel efficient than the A-iPower SC2000i with its 0.16 GPH. The latter will therefore be more economic to run than the former. Inverter generators like these 2 are of the most fuel efficient (and quiet) type.
  • THD: Both generators offer a low THD (<3% for the A-iPower SC2000i and <3% for the A-iPower SUA2300i) and are therefore perfectly suitable to safely power your sensitive electronic devices.
  • Noise: With a noise of 52 dBA, the SUA2300i allows for a quieter operation than the 58 dBA of the SC2000i. The former will therefore be the most suitable for you if you take noise emission seriously.

Portability Comparison

  • Bulkiness: With dimensions of L21" x W12.5" x H19", the A-iPower SC2000i offers a much more compact experience of power generation than the A-iPower SUA2300i and its L21.7" x W14" x H20.9".
  • Weight: With a weight of 46 lbs, the SC2000i is slightly less heavy than the SUA2300i (which weighs 50.7 lbs).
  • Portability: As the SUA2300i benefits from a built-in set of wheels, it is easier to move it once on the ground than the SC2000i, because the latter doesn't have one. The SC2000i has a standard handle and the SUA2300i 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 SC2000i and the SUA2300i both offer 2 AC outlets. None of them feature GFCI outlets. Both of them also feature 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 SC2000i's and the SUA2300i's product pages.
  • Data Center & Fuel Gauge: Being equipped with a data center, the A-iPower SUA2300i allows for a better monitoring of its power generation than the A-iPower SC2000i. Besides that, these 2 products are equipped with a fuel gauge allowing to see their fuel level at a glance. For the SUA2300i, this fuel gauge is digital and part of the data center.
