Thanks

I speak only English.

It is not starting now because of the extreme cold temperature (coldest ever, one recorded cold day). Also the battery is probably getting old. The neares heated space is 50’ i heat with propane.

12v is sent thru the start. The key is to acknowledge that a start is request. In this way if the key is not in the generator and turn on , it will not start. Because it is remote you must leave the key in the on position which would drain the bat so the AGS remotely turns off the generator with...

It’s a Honda generator and there is a plug I remove and replace with another plug/cable (available from Honda). The plug/wire gives access to +12v, Gnd, Key, Start and Run sensor At the generator with these states you can request the inverter to start your generator when the battery voltage...

I bought the cable from Honda although I had made one before theirs came in, but there is a plug on the generator which is removed and the cable replaces it . The other end has 5 wires coming out. Gnd, start, Key, +12v & run status. They have a wifi equivalent, but I don’t have wifi. Lol it...

I have a ME Automatic controller it plugs into the generator when the inverter senses below 25.2V, it sends signal to the generator to start and times out, when the generator starts up it sends a signal back to the ME-AGS to tell it it’s running and resets the ME-AGS. Works great!

Doesn’t have enough crank amps at cold temperature. I parallel another battery and off it goes The battery warmer works. Just trying to avoid it because the house is off grid. Thanks

It w It weighs a ton! And it usually runs automatically at night. My house is off grid, I never know when I need power thus the autonation. South facing is an excellent idea, I will be building an insulated box for it. Hasn been a problem in 3 years. The generator is on standby all the time...

Yes, i thin its only using 15A because of the fuse in it.? Haven’t verify this yet.

Thank you very constructive!

I agree with supertech too. The engine oil is synth 0W30 and is working perfectly, never too thick. The generator is a Honda Eu7000is and is working fantastic. It‘s all in the starter battery. This is the weak point. i‘m going to build an insulated enclosure for this fall and if that doesn’t...

Yes, your right abt the lead acid and this is the problem I’m dealing with. A battery blanket does work, but as an off grid homestead, power to the heater is valuable. A thermostat is in place so the heater does not turn on until it’s -14C and it’s working this way. I’m just trying to find an...

Very interesting. Sounds like a good idea. Will do some more studying. Thank you!

Thank you. The problem is resoled with a battery blanket heater. The Honda generator does not have Wifi. Very good information. Thanks
