The Yamaha EF1000is a Fuel Efficient Alternative
Many people who find themselves in the market for a small portable
generator in recent years have been pleasantly startled by the options
presented. The previous notion that all generators were large, bulky and
loud has been completely reformed and in it’s place are several
wonderfully compact and fuel efficient models that are designed to
provide ample power for emergency needs or even weekend camping trips.
Most people who are simply looking for a small amount of power for a
camping trip, or to run a few lights during a power outage find that
1,000 watts of power is plenty and the Yamaha EF1000is offers just that
in a small and lightweight package. With a weight of only 27.9 pounds,
this little generator is a tiny treasure that offers a huge amount of
power.
In the spirit of fuel and energy consumption the gas tank is a tiny .66
gallon size making many people wonder just how long can it really last.
The incredible news is that while that .66 gallons is able to last an
amazing 12 hours as 50% capacity, the bad news is you cannot add a
larger gas tank to maintain the 12-hour time frame at a higher load.
Most people are quite content regardless with the time the generator
runs, especially when they hear how quiet this little gem is.
Most generators in the past were highly noisy and would force people to
cover their ears in pain and agony. The Yamaha EF1000is brings the
perfect balance of soothing quiet with dB ratings of 47-57, which is
quieter than most home vacuum cleaners. Combine the incredible fuel
efficiency together with the amazingly quiet operation and 1,000 watts
of power in a package that weights less than 30 pounds and you have the
perfect solution for a small family.
If you are only doing small camping trips or only planning to run a
radio and light source this is the perfect solution. However, if you are
looking into powering an entire camper or RV then a much larger power
source is going to be necessary. Regardless of your exact needs, having
the power packed Yamaha EF1000is around for emergency usage is certainly
not a bad idea and helps to ensure that you always have a light on and a
way to listen to the radio or television without searching for the
batteries and flashlights first.
