I never start our Honda 2000i in eco mode, even with no load at all. Easier to start, faster warm-up.

After it's warmed up I use eco for charging batt's and operating lights etc, it switches mode smoothly as demand varies.
I'll switch to run before turning the microwave on, same with any high draw item.

As your Air Conditioner cycles on a off, you don't want your generator running at full throttle while the AC is turned off. That is why I would want my Gen running in ECO mode when it is running for the air.

I read it differently.....


"ECO-THROTTLE (TM) SWITCH
The Eco-ThrottleTM system automatically reduces engine speed when all loads are turned off or disconnected. When appliances are turned on or reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the electrical load.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the Eco- Throttle switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage changes. When using the DC output, turn the Eco-Throttle switch to the OFF position.
ON: Recommended to minimize fuel consumption and further reduce noise levels when no load is applied to the generator.
OFF: The Eco-Throttle system does not operate."
