A1:
For home power outages, the ideal backup power solution should meet the following criteria:

• High reliability: Capable of powering essential household appliances such as refrigerators, air conditioners, lighting, and network devices continuously.
• Easy startup: Quick and simple to start without complicated operations.
• Fuel availability: Supports gasoline, LPG, or multi-fuel options (Gas + Propane + NG) to ensure long-term standby.
• Safe and quiet: Suitable for home environments, with low noise and safe emissions.
  

✅ Recommended options:

1. Inverter Generator

• Advantages: Fuel-efficient, low noise operation, ideal for short-term backup or household use.

1. Dual-Fuel Generator (Gas + LPG)

• Advantages: Flexible fuel options (gasoline or LPG), suitable for long-term backup, and applicable for home, outdoor, and emergency scenarios.

1. Tri-Fuel Generator (Gas + Propane + NG)

• Advantages: Multiple fuel options, highly reliable for long-term standby, especially suitable for whole-house power supply and extended emergency backup.

1. Portable Power Station

• Advantages: Maintenance-free, zero emissions, low noise, ideal for short-term outages, critical appliance backup, or mobile applications.

Note: Typically ranges from 500Wh to 3000Wh. Not suitable for long-term whole-house power supply. Can be combined with a gas generator to cover both short-term and long-term backup needs.

A2:

• Small Portable Generators (1–3 kW): Smartphones, laptops, lamps, TVs
• Medium Generators (5–7 kW): Refrigerators, air conditioners, full set of household appliances
• High-Power Generators (≥7 kW): Whole-house power supply, kitchen appliances, heating systems, and more

A3:

• Gasoline Generators: Quick to start, suitable for short-term power supply. Fuel storage is limited, and long-term standby costs can be relatively higher.
• Multi-Fuel Generators (Gas / Propane / NG / LPG): Fuel is easy to store, ideal for long-term standby. They operate quietly and with low emissions, making them suitable for home and indoor use (please select models with built-in CO detection for safety).

A4:

• Place the generator outdoors in a well-ventilated area to prevent carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning.
• Ensure all electrical connections are secure and avoid overloading the generator.
• Regularly check fuel and battery status to ensure reliable startup when needed.
• Use generators equipped with automatic overload protection and low-oil warning indicators for enhanced safety.

A5:

• Portable power stations typically range from 500Wh to 3000Wh, making them ideal for short-term power outages or powering essential devices.
  
• Advantages: Silent operation, zero emissions, and easy to transport.
  
• Limitations: Not suitable for long-term whole-house power supply, but they can be paired with a gas generator to create a comprehensive backup solution covering both short-term and extended outages.

A6:

• Calculate the power requirements of your essential devices to determine the generator capacity needed.
• Select fuel type and capacity based on the expected duration of power outages.
• Consider noise, emissions, and safety features to ensure safe and comfortable operation at home.
• Recommended approach: Combine a dual-fuel generator with a portable power station to cover both short-term and long-term power needs effectively.
