Yamaha YG2800i

It's not uncommon to have generators weighing over 120 lbs. And weight usually corresponds to power output. Moving a generator around a job site can be challenging. It might take 2 or 3 people or a back hoe to move a generator from place to place on a job site. That is, until Yamaha created the YG2800i. Tipping the scales at just 66 lbs., it's the lightest generator in its class. The key is its sixteen-pole rotor with twenty-four coil stator and Pulse Width Modulation inverter. This design is smaller and lighter than a conventional two-pole alternator and large stator - and it makes the YG2800i extremely portable around a job site or just about anywhere.

Generators can be loud and annoying - and that can be a problem whether you're at home, camping, or working on an already noisy job site. With the YG2800i, Yamaha has created the quietest generator in its class. Yamaha engineers looked at the total design and then made changes where they would be most effective — i.e., engine operating speed, intake noise, exhaust noise, and valvetrain noise. The most important addition is the "Economy Control" function. Here's how it works: Typically, a generator runs at 3600 rpm to produce 60HZ. With Yamaha's "Economy Control," the YG2800i engine speed automatically adjusts to precisely match power demand. Therefore, if you're powering only some small appliance, like a radio, drill, saw or lights, the generator runs at a low engine speed. Then, as power demand increases, the engine speed increases accordingly.

Most generators can't power anything with microcomputers or sophisticated electronics - their generated power has too many spikes and irregular wavelengths that can destroy sensitive equipment. The YG2800i sine wave is equal to or superior to commercial power. The YG2800i produces a full width sine wave, not a clipped or modified sine wave like other inverters on the market. Voltage stability is within ± 1%, and Frequency stability is ± 0.1 HZ. It's ideal for equipment and tools that requires stable frequency and voltage.
