What to Consider When Buying Generators & Solar Panels

1. Power Output & Capacity:

• Assess how much power you need. Generators come in various sizes, with some suitable for running just a few appliances and others designed for whole-house power. Make sure you choose a generator or solar system with the right wattage for your needs. If you're powering a small cabin, a portable generator or solar setup will suffice, but larger systems are available for homesteads or farms.

• For solar panels, consider the square footage you want to power and the total wattage capacity of the panels. You may need multiple panels depending on your energy needs.

2. Solar Panels vs. Generators:

• Solar Panels: Ideal for long-term sustainability, solar panels convert sunlight into electricity and offer an efficient, low-maintenance energy source for your home or property. They can be used with battery banks or solar generators to provide power even when the sun isn't shining.

• Generators: Choose a gas, diesel, or propane generator for quick, reliable power during emergencies. If you need portable power for outdoor activities, a portable generator is a good option. For continuous power in case of grid failure, consider a standby generator.

3. Portability & Ease of Use:

• Portable Generators: Lightweight, easy-to-use portable generators are perfect for camping, outdoor activities, or as backup power for smaller applications. They are convenient for homesteaders and farmers who need mobility.

• Solar Generators: Solar generators combine the benefits of solar power with portability, allowing you to charge your devices or power small appliances without the need for gasoline or propane.

4. Installation & Maintenance:

• Solar Panels: Installing a solar panel system requires planning, especially if you're setting up a whole-house system. Professional installation is recommended, but DIY kits are also available for smaller setups. Solar panels require minimal maintenance—just periodic cleaning to ensure maximum efficiency.

• Generators: Maintenance requirements for gas-powered generators and diesel generators vary. Regularly check oil levels, air filters, and fuel systems to keep your unit running smoothly. Be sure to also store fuel properly, especially if you're storing it for an emergency.
