Did a few searches, but couldn't find a thread where different gens were compared to each other and ranked. Maybe I didn't search correctly?
Anyway, looking to get a Solar Gen for dual purpose. I'm in Florida and Hurricane season is here. I have a few gas generators, but Erma was a wake up call. I'm not 1 to sit on a line all day for a few gallons of gas. Solar is definitely the way to go.
I have a Van build in progress and have the electrical all done. Its a small system, but does the job for now. Looking to get a solar Gen as a backup to the Van and my home.
Van info - 2018 ProMaster High Roof - 4 AGM Batteries @ 420 AH, 3000/6000 watt pure sine inverter, EPEVER 30A Charge Controller, 2 x 100 watt solar panels (with room on the roof for a 3rd panel), 30A RV AC/DC distribution panel - 30 amp shore power connection, and have 0awg wire to the Van battery/alternator as a back up charging source.
I was looking to get the Bluetti EB240, but read a post where a well known member called it trash. I figured $1600 shipped from amazon was a great deal, but now, not so much.
Looked at the Titan but seems a bit too expensive for my use. Was hoping to get a few suggestions from members that have hands on and similar needs.
Thanks in Advance,
Rich.
