Useful enhancements in new Honda EU2200i

[zboss]

There are a couple of enhancements to the new honda generator vs. the old model that are welcome.

1) A longer and larger oil fill.
2) Runs cooler
3) Has a fuel shutoff so you can run the carb dry

Runs cooler?
I know it’s 20% more power I think, from a larger engine. But how is it cooler?

The increased airflow to the inverter... I would hazard a guess that only a few degrees cooler will increase its lifespan, which is already good.

Oh and it runs a little quieter too 2 to 5 dB less depending on load. I'll take that.
