Honda Launches My Generator Bluetooth App

The Honda My Generator Bluetooth app is making generator use easier and more convenient for consumers. The app allows a user to start, stop and monitor critical operations of a portable Honda generator remotely.

The app launch is timed with the exceptionally active 2020 hurricane season, which has already pummeled Louisiana. The app operates within a 75-foot line of sight, allowing the user to

  • start (electric start models only) and stop the generator
  • monitor a range of information, such as output power, engine operating hours, oil life, (fuel level for the EU7000iS only)
  • estimate run times based on power usage
  • receive warnings and routine maintenance reminders

The Honda My Generator Bluetooth app also allows the user to control multiple, compatible Honda generators from a single mobile device. On Honda generators with electric start—the EM5000, EM6500 and EU7000iS—the app allows for remote starting, stopping and monitoring. Honda pull start models, such as the EU2200i, require manual start-up, but the new app allows for remote stopping and monitoring. The app operates with selected Apple devices and Android smartphones.

Honda Power Equipment will roll out the app on selected generator models throughout 2020, starting in September with four models—the popular EU2200i and EU2200i and the deluxe series EM5000 and EM6500 units.
