Portable Generators, Portable Inverter Generators, and Related Equipment
Important: If you sell products on Amazon, you must comply with all federal, state, and local laws and Amazon policies that apply to those products and listings.
A portable generator is a fuel-driven engine or motor that converts chemical energy directly into an alternating current output. Portable generators are designed so that they can be carried or pushed and pulled by a person. Portable generators may also include more sophisticated portable inverter generators, which are also fuel-powered but have a built-in AC inverter. Portable power inverters convert DC signals provided by solar panels or internal batteries into AC output.
Example
Portable Generator (Conventional)
Portable Inverter Generator
Portable Power Inverter Converter
