Power at your Fingertips with the Solar Generator and the Power Inverter

We face a great demand for on-hand and reliable electricity every moment of our day.  Despite our busy work schedules and demanding personal life, we always find the time to get updated with news and post our own updates online.  Some of us extend this frenzy of networking and 24/7 connection to our work, even to the point of having home offices set up.  Given this increasing need and dependency on electronic devices and appliances, a number of backup power sources have sprouted up in the market in response.  Some of these are solar generators and power inverters.

Solar generators are backup energy sources that harness electrical energy from solar panels.  These solar panels are composed of photovoltaic cells that absorb the sun's energy and stores it in deep cell batteries.  The energy in these batteries is converted to AC power and released through grounded AC ports for use of household appliances and electronic gadgets.  It is important in this setup that the solar panel is placed in a strategic position for it to absorb sufficient sunlight.  Depending on the amount of energy you need, the whole system may be large and permanent or small and mobile.


Aside from solar generators, another reliable source of backup energy is the power inverter.  It is connected to a vehicle battery that contains DC power which it uses that to produce AC power.  The power inverter is as small as a shoe box, but can power two or more devices at a time.  It is safe to use inside the car or at home as it is equipped with an audio alarm to warn of low battery levels and an automatic shutdown function in cases of overheating or overloading.
