I see you can get a metal bar shaped to attach to the plastic handle of the EU2000i generators. Protects against thieves sawing through the plastic carry handle. Saw a generator attached to a gray box on a lamppost up the street during our 2 and a half day power outage early January. Generator there seemed to be about the size of a 5000 watt model.
Those are a worthwhile investment. I use that with a cable attaching the generator to my RV when
camping.
I suppose it all depends on the determination of the thief. If they
are carrying a side grinder or a bolt cutter that will handle the lock
or cable, they are taking the generator.
I put a 5/8" eye bolt through the wall of the garage, double nutted on
the inside to deter a thief but only because that was what I had
handy. It is what FPL uses to hook guy wires to light poles. It does
look impressive tho ;-)
During Irma I had my generator chained to the gas pipe. That really
did not seem like a good idea but it was all I had at the time.
Yup. If they've a grinder or cutter that will handle it, they've got themselves a generator. As long
as they're so quiet they don't wake the dogs.
What do you fasten to the eye bolt? A chain?
It is a piece of 3/8" SS cable I got from someone with eyes crimped on
each end. I loop it through a couple pipes in the frame and lock it up
with one of those big "Harley" locks with the round key. It will stop
the guy who did not bring tools.
