The Honda EG1500 is AC portable generator. The maximum power available at the receptacles is 1.5 kVA (1,500 watts). The generator is equipped with an AVR (Auto Voltage Regulator). The voltage need not be adjusted if the frequency is adjusted property.
The Honda EG1500 generator uses a single-cylinder Honda G200 gasoline engine with (197 cc; 12.0 cu.in.) of displacement. The cylinder bore and the piston stroke are 67.0 mm (2.64 in) and 56.0 mm (2.2 in), respectively. The compression ratio rating is 6.5:1.
The G200 K1 engine produced 5.0 PS (3.7 kW; 5.0 HP) at 3,600 rpm of maximum horsepower.
