Inverter Generators

Inverter generators deliver quiet, fuel‑efficient, clean power that’s safe for sensitive electronics. Unlike conventional units, they produce a stable pure sine wave, so laptops, phones, TVs, medical devices, routers, and modern appliances run smoothly with reduced risk of damage. Their compact designs and low noise make them a great fit for camping, RV trips, tailgates, food trucks, outdoor events, and home backup during outages.

Key benefits include lower fuel use through variable engine speed (often called Eco Mode), lighter weight for easy transport, and parallel capability that lets you connect two compatible units for more wattage as your needs grow. Many models add thoughtful touches like 30A RV‑ready outlets (TT‑30R), multiple 120V receptacles, USB ports, electric or remote start, CO shutoff sensors, and Bluetooth apps for monitoring load, runtime, and maintenance.

How to choose the right inverter generator:
- Calculate running and starting watts for your gear; add 20–30% headroom for surge loads.
- 2000–2500W suits lights, electronics, fans, and small tools. 3000–4500W can handle an RV air conditioner or fridge. 6000–9000W supports more home circuits via a transfer switch.
- Compare noise ratings; many quality models operate around 52–60 dBA at 25% load.
- Check runtime at 25–50% load and fuel options. Dual‑fuel (gasoline/propane) increases flexibility and storage life.
- Look for CARB/EPA compliance, covered outlets, and durable enclosures for outdoor use.
- Confirm parallel kits, wheel kits, and service networks are readily available.

Safety and upkeep matter. Always run outdoors, far from doors and windows, and use a CO alarm. For home backup, use an interlock or transfer switch—never backfeed a panel. Change oil after the first 5–10 hours, then per the manual, stabilize fuel, run monthly, clean the spark arrestor, and store dry.
