Battery-Powered Generators Replacing Gas Generators

Latest Hot DEALS

Although you can’t really beat a gas generator when it comes to covering all your back-up or portable power needs, battery-powered generators are certainly on the rise throughout the country. Battery power offers a cleaner option for users including those needing it for DIY, camping, or many other reasons and are also becoming more and more efficient.  The primary cause of this is that they can be charged with solar panels.





Because gas generators do not require the sun to keep it running, they will keep going as long as you keep supplying the fuel, so if it is long-term use you need a generator for then battery power may not be for you.  But, it’s not all doom and gloom as there are many other aspects of battery powered generators that are great such as they are perfect for indoor use, they operate silently; they use an easy to charge 120v AC charging system, they use and generate clean energy and have zero emissions.

The enCube is a new battery-powered generator to hit the market and has been manufactured by Kohler, who has been in the generator industry for more than 80 years.  It has the ability to deliver 1400 watts of power continuously and 1200 watt hours and has built-in GFCI to stop overloading and overheating.  Another cool feature on the enCube is that it is kitted out with USB ports to allow you to charge your smartphone, 12V DC ports to charge medium-sized gadgets and a 120V AC outlet for your bigger electronic products.

The unit itself can be charged from any solar panel or 120V AC wall socket, and multiple units can also be used in conjunction with an increased runtime capacity and are currently on sale for around $1,090.  Another portable power provider is Goal Zero, who is extending their own line of power stations next year, with products including the Yeti 400 and Yeti 1400.  These are lithium-ion battery backup systems that have increased the lifespan and decreased the weight on these generators offering a more perfect solution for portable power.

While the Yeti 400 is better for charging lights and smaller electronics, the Yeti 1400 can power larger items such as the refrigerator or TV, or act as an emergency back-up device.  Both the Yeti 400 and the Yeti 1400 will be available next year and will retail for $700 and $2000 respectively.
