AFERIY AF-P210 2400 Watt Portable Power Station Test and Review

https://youtu.be/2hdMxWIivHE

Today I test and review the AFERIT AF-P210 portable power station. This unit can be purchased with, or without solar panels. It’s capable of 2400 watts of output with a battery capacity of 2048Wh. This Power station / solar generator would be perfect for emergency home power backup during power outages and blackouts. It’s also perfect for off grid living or camping. This is the perfect solution for people who are building their own camper trailer or even small RV / motor homes. Anywhere or anytime you need electricity and there isn’t a power grid receptacle available, this device would come in very handy! The UPS, “uninterrupted power supply” feature of this product is great for situations when a sudden power outage would cause an immediate problem…. such as keeping CPAP machines running, or keeping home oxygen concentrators running, etc, etc. The examples of things where this device would come in handy are countless. If you’re in the market for a portable power station / solar generator, be sure to check this one out!

Thanks.

GENMAX GM9000iED Best Dual Fuel Inverter Generator Great For Home Backup, or General Use.

GENMAX GM9000iED Best Dual Fuel Inverter Generator Great For Home Backup, or General Use

I purchased this GENMAX GM9000iED dual fuel generator to use as my emergency home backup power source. Of the three or four 9000 – 9500 watt inverter generators on the market (at the time of this video) I feel this model has the most features for the best price. (see below) I chose to use a portable generator for home standby electricity instead of a built-in Generac Guardian, QuietSource, or PowerPact stand-by because I have a fairly small house and I do not require more wattage than the 7600 running watts of this GENMAX. This generator will even start my home central air conditioning A/C condensing unit without a hard start, or Micro Air easy start kit installed. With our power grid in questionable condition, power outages can happen at any time, especially up here with our thunderstorms, lightning storms, ice storms, tornadoes, etc, etc. Even for those who live in hurricane country, this generator is perfect for those emergency grid down situations. Look what happened in Texas last year….. It never hurts to be prepared. For those who rely on a home oxygen concentrator or CPAP machine, extended power outages can be a real problem. Even those “Solar Generators” (basically a battery in a box) can probably only get you by for a few days, at best before you need real power to keep yourself going.

The specs of this generator are….
120 / 240 volts.
it has one 240 volt 30 amp outlet, one 240 volt 50 amp outlet, and two duplex 120 volt GFCI protected outlets.
458cc 4-stroke OHV engine produces 9000 peak watts and 7600 rated watts with 6.9 gallon fuel tank.
As Low as 62 dBA Noise with 25%loading at 23 feet distance.
CO DETECT Automatically turns off the generator when an unsafe level of carbon monoxide is detected.
Low engine oil level shut off

The GENMAX GM9000iED compared to the “tool store” version of this generator….
The GENMAX is quieter! Its rated at 62dB, the tool store generator is rated at 67dB
The GENMAX has a full digital multi meter showing power usage, the tool store generator only has an hour meter.
The GENMAX has automatic engine choke with remote start, the tool store generator does not.
The GENMAX has an engine oil filter screen, the tool store generator does not have any form of engine oil filtration.
The GENMAX is dual fuel compatible (gasoline and propane), the tool store generator is only setup to burn gasoline.
The GENMAX has a 50 amp receptacle built in so no adapters are needed when plugging in large RVs, The tool store
generator does not have this. (And I don’t believe any of the other 9000 watt inverter generators on the market have
it, either… at least at the time of this video)

The other 9000 – 9500 watt inverter generators are the DuroMax, the Predator, and the A-I Power. Although, I believe they all advertise the same 7600 running watts.

Thanks for watching
