The charge is never endless, and there may be no one to leave a device to charge overnight – especially if you are going to explore remote, sparsely populated places.
Before heading out on a hike or exploring an unusual route, it is worth preparing. Even on the most minor trips, a diesel generator will allow you to stay connected, enjoy your favorite products of civilization, and generally be mobile enough, independent of surrounding conditions.
A diesel generator will not sit idle at other times either, providing electricity on a plot, at a dacha, or in a country house. Full autonomy and safety – that is what this device offers. Even with very active use of the unit and heavy loads, timely generator repair allows you to continue using this unpretentious device further.
However, modern generators are not those huge machines that used to produce a lot of noise. New models are characterized by:
- small size,
- light weight,
- low noise level,
- fire safety,
- ease of connecting any devices (electrical safety).
Also, auto-start and uninterrupted operation for up to several days are advantages of these devices in camping conditions. And finding spare parts for generators and additional devices will not be difficult.
The resource and performance of the devices are gradually increasing, and the consumption is decreasing compared to a gasoline generator.
You should also pay attention to the "turnover rate" of the generator. The higher this parameter, the fewer hours per year the device should operate. If you need a "mobile power station" for more than 500 hours per year, then you should choose a low-speed device. By the way, it will also be quieter than a high-speed model.
Also, technically different are three-phase devices that output 380/220 V, and single-phase ones. The former can solve more technical tasks, but with the latter you will always have power supply – even on a hike!
