Tips for Choosing the Right Generator
- Total your running watts for everything you’ll use together.
- Identify the largest starting surge (motors & compressors) and keep headroom.
- Dual-fuel adds flexibility: propane stores well; petrol is widely available.
- Outlet types matter — match 230V/110V & amperage (13A/16A/32A) to your kit.
