How it works

Clean power, anywhere you need it

Solar generators are simpler than you think. Here's everything you need to know — from sunlight to socket.

01

Capture sunlight with solar panels

Unfold your solar panels and point them toward the sun. The panels convert sunlight into DC electricity using photovoltaic cells — no fuel, no fumes, no noise. On a clear day, a 200W panel can deliver a full charge in 4–8 hours.

02

Store energy in the battery

Electricity flows from the panels into the built-in LiFePO4 battery pack. LiFePO4 chemistry is safer, longer-lasting, and more stable than older lithium-ion designs — rated for 3,000+ charge cycles before dropping below 80% capacity.

03

Power your devices

Plug in via AC outlets, USB-A, USB-C, or 12V car ports. The built-in inverter converts stored DC power to standard 120V AC — the same power your home appliances expect. Run a fridge, charge laptops, power medical devices, or keep the lights on.

Recharge multiple ways

Top up from solar panels, a standard wall outlet, or your car's 12V port. Many models support all three simultaneously. When grid power is available, a full recharge takes as little as 1.3 hours.

Why solar over gas?

Gas generators get the job done — but solar generators do it better in almost every situation that matters.

Where people use them

Home backup

Keep your fridge, lights, and medical devices running during outages. No installation required — just plug in and power on.

Camping & outdoors

Charge phones, run a camp light, power a portable fridge, or keep a CPAP running — all without a generator's noise or fumes.

RV & van life

Supplement your RV's shore power or go fully off-grid. Expandable battery packs let you scale capacity as your needs grow.

Job sites & remote work

Power tools, laptops, and lighting at remote job sites where grid power isn't available — or where running a cord isn't practical.
