Honda EU EU2000i- testing hot water and hour gauge - 2014

Middle of February 2014 - La Cruz Anchorage in Banderas Bay, Mexico
We started storing the Honda EU EU2000i at the mast on the port side. With the cable lock it is held tight to the mast and gave us o problem while sailing.

Now though we have not been using it because we are getting plenty of solar. So we did our hot water test. We fired up the generator and turned on our hot water heater. Remember we have a split heater element. HAlf runs on 110 and the other half runs on 12v. With the PC and two kindles charging and the hot water heater on 110 the generator went just over eco mode. Not bad at all. Took about 45 min to get fairly hot water. Hort enough for us to take a shower. We shower together ad when yo get the water hot enough to mix it say 50-50 with cold then we have at least 12 gal of water to use.More than enough. Our solar shower holds 5 gal (see it on deck) and we do fine with that. our hot water heater holds 6 gal.

 We have been storing the Honda EU EU2000i up on deck by the mast. Now that we ran the tests we will drain the gas and store it below till next year😁

We do want to see why our Tachometer/ Hour Meter does not work and never has. Hoping to get this figured out before storing it again.
Our hour\tack meter has not been working.
