Introduction
Yamaha is known for its motor sports, but also exceeds at their line of power equipment which adheres to the same standard of quality that was set forth back in 1953. Packed with the latest technology, their line of portable generators display an enhanced power and performance that boast high standards of durability and reliability. This review talks about the great features of the Yamaha EF2000iSv2 Portable Inverter Generator and what it delivers in efficiency, durability, convenience, and more, making this unit one of our Top Ten Best Portable Generators.
Inverter Technology
Voltage stability is within ± 1%, and frequency stability is ± 0.1 HZ. Worth mentioning, it’s pure sine wave is as clean as or cleaner than the power produced by public utilities. This model runs at 1600 watts and has an air-cooled single cylinder, 4-stroke engine that provides impressive heat control.
The OHV engine is built to last, and includes a steel camshaft and valve train components with a cast iron cylinder liner. There is a smart throttle with a sensor that controls the engine speed, which improves fuel efficiency and helps with noise reduction by automatically adjusting the speed of the engine to match the load.
On one tank of gas, It will run up to 10.5 hours at a one-quarter rated load. Other features include an Oil Watch Warning System that prevents any damage to the engine when the oil is down below the minimum level, protecting the engine from destruction and avoiding any costly repairs.
There is also an electrical overload breaker that will prevent any damage to the generator in case of overload. The fuel gauge can be seen at a glance with the gasoline petcock, allowing you to shut off the gas to run the carburetor dry for storing, and to prevent any stale gas issues.
