A Quick Guide to Petrol Inverter Generators for Caravans, RV and Camping
In this blog post:
There’s nothing quite like the allure of a summer caravan or camping trip – the serene beauty of nature, the escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, and the breath-taking views. Yet, modern conveniences make these trips even more enjoyable. A petrol inverter generator is an essential tool for any avid camping and caravan traveller, powering laptops, kettles, phones, TVs and more - wherever your adventures take you.
Why choose an inverter generator?
Unlike their larger, commercial counterparts, inverter generators are designed to be compact and portable, making them ideal for camping and caravan trips. Models ranging from 1kW to 2kW can easily fit into a car boot, storage cupboard, or footwell, proving that powerful performance doesn’t have to mean bulky equipment.
Lightweight and Portable Generators
Hyundai’s inverter generators are engineered for portability. Also known as "suitcase generators," these power units feature top handles for easy carrying. Some models weigh as little as 13kg, while larger units come with wheel kits to eliminate the need for manual lifting. When selecting a generator, consider both the size and weight to ensure it fits your travel needs perfectly.
User-Friendly and Safe Design
For those new to generators, inverter models are designed to be as straightforward as possible. Features like digital overload protection and low oil shutdown are standard, safeguarding the generator from damage by shutting it down if the load is too high or oil levels are too low. This simplicity extends to maintenance as well, with most models requiring just minimal upkeep to stay in top condition.
Quiet Operation for Peaceful Enjoyment
One of the biggest concerns with petrol generators is noise. However, Hyundai’s range of inverter generators operate at low noise, from 58dBa at a distance of 7 meters. This low noise level ensures your peace and quiet, allowing you and your neighbours to enjoy the tranquillity of nature.
Many models also offer an "economy" mode, which further reduces noise and fuel consumption by adjusting engine speed based on the load. Eco mode also extends the life of your generator and lowers fuel consumption. By matching engine speed (revs) to the power demand, your generator runs more efficiently, saving you money on fuel and reducing wear and tear. For instance if you are only charging batteries or topping up your mobile phone power, the engine will be running very quietly to match the output. This feature is particularly valuable for those looking to maximize their investment and enjoy longer periods between refuelling.
Safe Power for Sensitive Electronics
Inverter generators are perfect for powering sensitive electronics like TVs, laptops, and more. They produce a pure sine wave output, ensuring a stable and consistent power supply similar to that from the mains. This makes them safe for all your devices, preventing potential damage from power fluctuations.
Compact and Modern Design
The compact size of inverter generators makes them ideal for campsites and motorhomes. These generators are a practical addition to your outdoor setup, where portability and space-saving are key.
