Honda has been known to create some of the best generators on the market. Recently this year Honda has released a new model of their inverter generator range, the Honda EU70is. And yes, the price speaks for its claims. The Honda EU70i 7kVA inverter generator is selling approximately at $6,999. There’s no denying that Honda’s established brand reflects in their premium pricing. With this in mind, some people are starting to look for an alternative, generators that are just as good but at below cost. In fact, Google Trends Australia suggests that there are decent searches of the search term “cheap generators” in the last months of December and January with a ratio of 1:2 compared to the search term “honda generators”. If you are one of those searchers, you might be overwhelmed now by just how many low-cost generators are there on the market. To help you with your buying decision, it’s important to make sure that the performance is not compromised at this price point. At ABLE Sales, the quality is not compromised. Our designs are backed by 30 years of experience in the industry. Check out our new inverter generator, the ABLE IN7500G advanced features, and specs.
Check out the features and specs of each generator below.

The Verdict:
Both generators are a great choice for mobile businesses, trade events, backup power, or caravanning. These generators can easily look similar as both are housed in an enclosed frame with lifting bars on top and fold-down handles. They also share some common features and specs, for instance, both come with a push-button electric starter. However, when you examine each spec closely, you'll find a slight difference, ABLE IN7500G has a slightly higher standby and prime power output, a larger fuel tank, and longer operating hours. And what really made the ABLE IN7500G stands out is that it has a parallel port which EU70is doesn't have. With its parallel port, you have the option to synchronise two generators to double the power output. So, if you're after more power, a larger fuel tank, and a price that doesn't hurt your wallet, then perhaps ABLE IN7500G is the way to go!
