Remote Start Kit for Honda EU7000is

Paul
I just wanted to say that your remote start kit for the Honda EU7000is is well designed and with your thorough instruction video, easy to install. Worked great first try! I have a camp / cabin on an island on Sebago Lake and Maine and this product will make my life so much easier.

Only one question/comment:
My dream is to arrive to the camp at night (by boat it’s on an island) and remote start the generator from the water to switch on a spotlight. The issue is that it requires leaving the generator on standby for an extended period of time (1-2 weeks at most).

Have you every determined how long the generator can remain on standby with a larger capacity battery I.e. Maybe a deep cycle marine battery or auto battery? Appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.

Thanks

Reply: Battery life is about 2 days on stand by, the best way to do what you want is to use a solar battery maintainer, get at least a 20 watt unit, the 5 watt ones are a joke.
