Questions We Get a Lot
A solar generator uses a built-in rechargeable battery — typically LiFePO4 chemistry — paired with solar panels to capture and store energy silently, without fuel, fumes, or engine maintenance. This makes it a cleaner, quieter, and lower-maintenance alternative that can be used safely indoors. For most home backup and outdoor use cases, a solar generator offers a more comfortable and practical experience.
Start by listing the appliances you want to keep running during an outage — refrigerator, lights, phone chargers, medical devices — and add up their wattage. You'll want a system whose output wattage exceeds the highest single load you plan to run, and whose battery capacity (measured in watt-hours) covers how long you need to run it. Our collection spans compact 100W units up to 7,200W systems, so there's a size for nearly every need.
Yes — most solar generators support pass-through charging, meaning they can charge via solar panels or AC wall power at the same time they're powering your devices. This is especially useful during extended outages when you want to keep the battery topped up during daylight hours while still running essential appliances. Check each product's description for its specific simultaneous charge-and-use specifications.

About Our Solar Generators
Solar generators are self-contained power systems that combine a rechargeable battery bank with one or more solar charging inputs, giving homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts a clean, quiet alternative to fuel-powered generators. At their core, they store energy in a battery — most modern units use LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) chemistry, which is valued for its thermal stability, long cycle life, and dependable discharge performance — and release it through AC outlets, USB ports, and DC connections whenever you need it. They're designed for anyone who wants reliable power without the noise, fumes, or ongoing fuel costs of a conventional generator. Common use cases include home emergency backup during grid outages, off-grid cabin or RV power, and portable energy for camping or outdoor work. When choosing a solar generator, consider three key factors: output wattage (can it handle your largest appliance?), total battery capacity in watt-hours (how long will it last?), and solar input rate (how quickly can it recharge from panels?). Matching those three numbers to your real-world needs ensures you get a system that performs calmly and confidently when it matters most.
