Welcome to the gang Mikratz, enjoy here and out in the playground. I have a Honda 20i and only runs my Ibis3 aircon when off the grid without any problems.
You get what you pay for IMO.
I noticed your same question in the 'General' section as well, with repies. Make sure you use the forum and participate.

G'day Mlkratz and welcome to the forum. Don't forget to try the two ongoing games here - 'Who is This' in the 'I Digress' section and 'Pick this Place' in the 'General' Section - a great source to find new places to visit. Cannot help with the generator question as we have don't own one.

Hello Mikratz
A warm welcome from me also, to this very informative forum, where the majority of members are very helpful
I have a Honda EU20i which came with my second hand motorhome
It will run my Mach II roof mounted air conditioner
It will run my microwave
I had been advised never to try and run both the above items together
I find that I do not need it, and when travelling without the boss, I will leave it at home

Hi, we have a honda eu20i and it has been used for 100's of hrs with no issues. We have been a bit slack with its servicing but does get serviced when i feel like it.
Just saying that ours is used for free camping, including running jug, toaster, microwave, and heron air conditioner - but not all at same time. We also run a jack hammer for mineral prospecting and a makita 9" angle grinder without issues.
The generator was in shed while having a clean out and shed burnt to ground caused by a battery charger but generator still runs even though the red and black plastic housing is severely damaged, it still runs perfectly so will not be replacing it any time soon. We highly recommend the honda.
