Honda EB6500X

Honda EB6500XThe Honda EB6500X is a single-phase AC portable generator with 6.5 kVA of maximum power and 5.5 kVA of rated power and 60 Hz of rated frequency. The EB6500X generator is available with 120/240 V rated voltage.

The Honda EB6500X generator uses one of two engines: Honda GX390 or Honda iGX390, depending on the generator version.

The Honda GX390 are single-cylinder gasoline engines with a 389 cc (23.7 cu.in) of displacement. The iGX390 is version of the GX390 engine with an ECU (electronic control unit) and a self-tuning regulator (STR) governor system.
