Honda Power Equipment Launches Bluetooth App

This pull-start unit can also be run via the app, just not turned on and off.

Alpharetta, Ga.-based Honda Power Equipment has launched the Honda My Generator Bluetooth App. The app allows a user (of models EM5000, EM6500 and EU7000iS only) to start, stop, and monitor critical operations of a portable Honda generator remotely from a compatible Apple device or Android smartphone through a Bluetooth interface.

The app works with both Apple and Android devices.

The app operates within a 75-foot line of sight. Aside from starting and stopping the generator, it allows users to monitor a range of information, such as output power, engine operating hours, oil life, (fuel level EU7000iS only), and estimated run times based on power usage. The app will also deliver warnings and routine maintenance reminders. And the app allows the user to control multiple, compatible Honda generators from a single mobile device.

For Honda pull-start models, such as the EU2200i, manual start-up is still required but the new app allows for remote stopping and monitoring.
