I just came across a sale of these on Amazon for $55 each and bought two and extended family bought three more. They sold out within about 20 minutes and the price then shot back up to $369.
Great comparison. That PowerSmart is right on par with the Honda. I have been looking for another inverter generator. Adding this to the list to show my husband. Thank you Lead Farmer
Thank you sister Crafty Leo. I’m trying to find quality backup tools and equipment for all kinds of pockets. These days everbody ain’t got it like that so I have to make sure everyone is covered.🌹
What's good LeadFarmer73...I ordered this on black Friday & just picked it up from the post office today 12/03/23. I had been wanting & watching the Pulsar 2300/1800 runtime. When I saw you review the 1500 Powersmart, I then saw the 2500w/1900 runtime and thought it would be better to charge all my solar generators including the 2000w on those cloudy to low sunlight days. So I'll be testing mine for loads, breaking it in and all that jive on tomorrow. I was sold on the 12v DC port & 2 usb ports too. Now that I have the solar & gas generators, I'm good. I also got the hour meter to install and magnetic dipstick.
Yeah Bro. you and I know that version of Honda generator has been out about 30 to 35 years and had been the King of quit and durability. We used to use them crappie fishing to run lights at night. But like you said Honda has done nothing to innovate or upgrade the technology. Good comparison video dude, thanks.
Thank you. I’ve been seeing all kinds of new companies start to think about quality and new technology innovations and still keep the prices affordable. I said I’m gonna start giving folks more of that and test it all over the years.
Hi Lead! Thank you for the comparison. I have wanted a honda generator but just too expensive. Powersmart is more in my price range. I like the added features too!
Here in the U.K. the Honda is at least £1200 the competition from Champion is £429 that’s a lot of difference, if you going to use it all day every day then the Honda is probably the way to go but for occasional use the other makes should suffice. 👍🏻🇬🇧
Not as big of a motor on the Powersmart to do the same amount of work, so the Honda doesn't have to work as hard. BUT, you can buy 3 PowerSmarts for the price of one Honda 2200.
I usually do reviews on sponsored products, but I am a honest reviewer. I will not touch a product if I don’t stand by it this generator I happen to purchase out of my own pocket. It does not make a difference one way or the other, but just to give you a little reassurance, I use this generator right now to this very day in my bug out trailer over the Honda. If this was to walk away in the middle of the night, I would feel so bad knowing the price.
I literally use this in my bug out trailer at this very moment. It works just as good as my Honda. It’s a lot more powerful than my Honda and it’s way cheaper than my Honda that way if it walks off in the middle of the night by a two legged predator, I won’t feel so bad, but it is in my trailer so I trust it with my safety .
@@leadfarmer73 thx for the reply. Sounds like I have a choice to make between the pulsar and this power smart. Subscribing now to your channel. Cool of you to take the time to reply back. Thx again.
I am still working on it and putting it through hell. I will do another video soon. I will keep you posted. so far so good. so far it’s looking like my Honda better watch out.😉👍🏽

It's not on par quality-wise. But for the price................

My pleasure!
@@leadfarmer73I need that generator seems great . I like the 2580 watt one

That’s why I have been showing many more price ranges for everyone.
Will this run a refrigerator? My fridge says 115v 8.5 amp just looking for a cheap way to power it in a power outage
yes

I’m glad you tested this
It is still running like a racehorse after all these months.
@@leadfarmer73 that’s good man! I’m literally about to buy one, that’s how I came across your video. And now I know the longevity
Who makes the laser temperature gauge that you were using?

Great job my broda' I'm buying it...thanks

My point exactly 👍🏽
the real test will be the longevity
Are you a salesman? you just sold me!!!😁

Thanks for your information I will buy the powersmart Brand
Awesome choice! trust me you will not be sorry.
Good afternoon and thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you ☺️
Great review 🍻
Thank you kindly
Grateful 🍃
Thank you 😊
How has the powersmart held up?
I literally use this in my bug out trailer at this very moment. It works just as good as my Honda.

7 months later where’s it at now sir?
still running strong. I just got back from a cross country trip and it saved my butt a few times. still super quiet and reliable.
Great review. Thanks!!
Very welcome!
Awesome!! Thank You
You're welcome!
Buy 3 Power Smart (1900W X 3) instead of 1 Honda 1800W almost with the same price.
Great video ..
How has this powersmart generator held up this past year? Looking for a small generator and saw your video. I almost bought the pulsar yesterday
I am still using it. just got back from a group camping trip and I used it for a week straight. flawless and quiet.
@@leadfarmer73 thx for the reply. Sounds like I have a choice to make between the pulsar and this power smart. Subscribing now to your channel. Cool of you to take the time to reply back. Thx again.
Thank you
You're welcome❤
🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Honda $1200
Power Smart $400 give to take $30.
Honda is reliable if you can afford it.
honda is great but damn...you pay for it for sure. There's got to be better options. I haven't seen a long term test for the Powersmart yet.
I am still working on it and putting it through hell. I will do another video soon. I will keep you posted. so far so good. so far it’s looking like my Honda better watch out.😉👍🏽
