[EDIT - before retiring, I mad a living out of producing auto sync/auto load share units - it is nigh on impossible to do so on small sets without spending a disproportionate amount of money]

Its not so difficult for generators where the 50Hz frequency is NOT produced as a direct result of rotation. Modern generators produce electricity at one voltage and frequency both can vary then use an inverter to produce accurate frequency and power. Synchronising them is a doddle (electronically speaking) as one generator becomes the master, controlling frequency relative phase and voltage.
I agree through that in general its not practicable.

Plusnet, Safari 5, G5 PowerPC iMac running OSX 10.5.8, Salisbury UK : Get behind early - it gives you more time to catch up.
You can do it with 2 Honda generators in the EU series, provided they are both the same model (i.e. 2 x EU10i or 2 x EU20i etc.). It requires a dedicated Honda connecting cable to do it.
Since Kipor is a Honda ripoff, I'm surprised they haven't copied the twinning option also.
Its always technically possible but unless its been considered at the design stage of inverter generators is a practical no-no.
Conventional electro-mechanical generator sets can be "phased up" with light bulbs and a big switch but that task is normally done by a professional, not joe public on a camp site.
You can with Honda generators according to the instruction book..
