THE UK'S NO. 1 FOR GENERATORS
The outstanding Honda EU70iS generator is a premium, high-capacity portable power solution designed for users who require dependable, efficient electricity in demanding environments. With a maximum output of 7000W and a robust 4-stroke GX390 OHV engine, the EU70iS delivers exceptional performance for a wide range of applications—from construction sites and outdoor events to off-grid adventures, emergency backup, and commercial use. Featuring advanced inverter technology, it produces clean, stable power that’s safe for even the most sensitive electronic devices, such as laptops, medical equipment, and modern appliances.
Weighing only 118.8kg including the battery, the EU70iS is built for both power and portability. Thanks to the integrated transport wheels and a well-balanced design, it’s easy to manoeuvre by one person, even across uneven terrain. The rugged construction includes high-quality materials like magnesium components that reduce weight without sacrificing strength. Starting the generator is quick and hassle-free with a key-operated electric start system, providing a reliable ignition every time. There’s also a recoil start option for added flexibility in the field.
Fuel efficiency is optimised through Honda’s innovative Eco Throttle technology, which automatically adjusts engine speed to match the load. This not only reduces fuel consumption and emissions but also extends engine life and keeps noise levels low during operation. With a generous 19.2-litre fuel tank, the EU70iS offers an operating time of up to 6 hours and 30 minutes at rated load, making it ideal for extended use without interruption. The fuel-injected GX390 engine runs at a maximum of 3600rpm and features transistorised ignition, forced air cooling, and a large oil capacity of 1.1 litres for long-lasting performance.
The Honda EU70iS outputs 230V at 50Hz, with a rated power of 5500W and a current of 23.9A, delivered via a single-phase inverter system. It also includes a 12V DC output providing up to 12A, ideal for battery charging with an optional cable. The generator’s sound pressure level at the workstation is just 75 dB(A), with a guaranteed sound power level of 91 dB(A), thanks to a noise-reducing muffler, casing, and acoustic panelling. The anti-vibration system, featuring straight engine rubber mounts, further protects internal components by minimising mechanical stress during use.
The EU70iS is packed with user-focused features including an oil alert system that automatically shuts down the engine when oil levels fall too low, protecting the unit from damage. Its compact dimensions make it easy to store and transport: it measures 848mm in length with the handle up (extending to 1198mm), 700mm in width, and 721mm in height. Despite its large output, the generator remains manageable and well-suited for users who need serious power on the go.
Designed to meet the toughest demands, the Honda EU70iS comes with an industry-leading warranty for both domestic and professional use, covering parts and labour with no decrease in value over time. Whether you're powering tools on-site, running essential appliances during an outage, or supporting off-grid events, the EU70iS combines rugged durability, modern technology, and legendary Honda reliability into a single, powerful package. This is the generator of choice for those who demand uninterrupted, clean power in even the harshest conditions.
The i-Deluxe Series is the first to use Honda's proprietary "i-Monitor" technology which provides information for hours of operation, wattage and engine speed; as well as diagnostics for convenient servicing. Standard features include electric starting, Honda's patented Eco-Throttle for extended run time, two-wheel transport kit and folding handles.
Honda's products are built better to last longer. That's why we can offer you a rock-solid warranty for domestic and professional use on our core range products, covering both parts and labour. The warranty also maintains the same value throughout the warranty period - meaning the last day of cover is exactly the same as the first.
*Subject to domestic/professional use and following the service schedule

Honda Motor Company Limited is a Japanese public multinational corporation primarily known as a manufacturer of cars, motorcycles and power equipment. Honda is also the world's largest manufacturer of internal combustion engines measured by volume, producing more than 14 million internal combustion engines each year. The company has assembly plants around the globe.
It was back in September 1978 when Honda launched their very first lawn mower in Europe. At that time, standard 2-stroke technology dominated the market, providing noisy, dirty engines that were difficult to maintain. So Honda fitted their lawn mowers with ground-breaking 4-stroke engines; setting new standards of performance, reliability and safety, but they didn’t stop with the engines.
Honda's aim has always been to constantly improve in all areas of design, so they built in hard-wearing durability and long-lasting performance at every stage of the process, from cast iron cylinder sleeves and ball bearings to support the crankshaft, to aerodynamic cutter decks with nylon grass bags for improved airflow and more efficient collection.
For years, Honda have built all their lawn, garden and power equipment around clean 4-stroke engine technology. That’s because they’re committed to making their products as user-friendly, fuel-efficient and reliable as they can, without compromising performance.
Today, Honda have harnessed their design and technology expertise to create a versatile repertoire of lawn, garden and power products from lawn mowers and brush cutters through generators and water pumps to tillers and snow throwers. Their patented Roto-stop feature is their latest benchmark in design, providing complete safety and peace of mind by allowing users to stop their lawn mower blades turning without switching the engine off.
In short, Honda products are quite simply the crème de la crème of garden machinery and power equipment.
