Grid Doctor 300 Solar Generator System + 100W Solar Panel

I own and use this
I own this exact system, and I love it. I've used it many times, and not just in emergencies. It's gone camping with me and traveling with me. It's quiet, there's no gas to store or rotate, and it recharges from the sun with the included 100W solar panel.
It's the generator I'd suggest for most families. It's light enough to carry, and it covers what matters most when the power goes out: charging phones, running lights, and keeping a radio on. It's also a great device for anyone who relies on a CPAP machine or a humidifier through the night. Check your device's power needs against the generator before you count on it, but for many people this is what turns an outage from a sleepless night into a normal one.
