Have You Ever Wondered What You Can Run With Our Solar Generators And How Many Batteries You Will Need?

The charts below show a list of appliances that our Solar/Wind Generators are capable of powering, the run time required, and the # of batteries required.

Keep in mind that the run time is based on the battery, not the inverter. For example: a big battery will run your TV longer than a small battery. It has nothing to do with the inverter. The inverter is the output capacity of a generator.

First, you need to know what will be your power consumption/wattage input for the appliances you plan to run with this Solar Generator

What can you run on solar power? What can you run with a 500-watt Solar Generator? How many volts does a Solar Generator use? What is the best Solar Backup Generator? Can a Single Solar Generator Power an Appliance?

 

In the chart below you can know how many batteries you will need to power your devices per 1, 2, or 6 hours. Remember we have a BATTERY QUANTITY CALCULATOR that will help you.
