what kind of generator should i get


if you are looking for the best kind generator to buy, there are brands and manufacturers of portable generator,  but to pick a good generator there are some qualities or features to in a generator to consider no matter  what brand or company selling it.
One of these essential features are the generator ratings, a portable generator is like any other electric appliances, they have two ratings, the starting watt and the running watt, the starting  watt is he power the generator require to kick starting while the running watt is the amount of load the generator can support at a time  generator are rated using the  running worth, for example  a 2000 wat generator can support electrical household load of  2000 watt at a time, a 5000 watt generator can support a load of up to 5000 watt, while a 10 000 watt generator can support up to 10 000 watt of energy  at a time,  therefore what  10000 watt generator can do a 2000 watt cannot do, there when chosing a generator always consider the size of your household load
 The 2nd factor to consider is the running time, a running time is time a generator can run continuously  when on full fuel tank . a generator with a running time of 4 hours  and another of 15 hours are not the same.  Therefore when choosing a generator always consider the running time,
 The running time of generator is independent of a generator rating, a 10, 000 watt genenartor ca have a running time of just 7 hours  whereas a 8000 watt generator can have a running time of 15 hours,
 The major factor that determine the running time of a generator is the tank size, a gen wit a large tank size will have a longer running time than a generator  small tank  tank size generator.
 Another factor to consider is the  noise level, no body want a noisy generator, noise is  a pollution,  generators are rated in decibels,  the average rating is 50decibel which almost same as the level of human conversation.
