Technical FAQs 4

Why should you buy a portable generator?

Portable generators provide reliable power when you need it. Whether for emergencies, camping, or work, they serve as a dependable backup power source. Choosing the right model depends on your power needs, fuel preferences, and usage.

How do I choose a portable generator?

A portable power station or generator should be easy to move. Look for models with wheels and handles to make mobility and access simpler. Lighter units work better for camping trips, while heavier models suit home backup use. Noise levels vary between generator types.

What type of generator do I Need?

Gas generators are the most popular choice. They run on gasoline, offering high power output and quick refueling. They work well for short-term use during power outages or outdoor activities. Propane generators burn cleaner and have a longer shelf life. They are suitable for users who prefer a cleaner fuel or need a backup that lasts longer.
