I'm buying some land shortly & plan to move on with my caravan to start.
Over time I'll get into building a solar panel set up but in the meantime I'd appreciate any advice or links as to what would be the best type / style of generator.
I would need something that could power a 32" TV and a 22" monitor, boil a kettle (one cups worth) around 10 times per day, run a shower once per day, charge power tools, laptop, lights etc and possibly run the vans heating & fridge, although gas may well be a better / cheaper option for these two?
The generator would have to sit outside the caravan and I'd like something that can auto start or start by remote, don't want to have to keep going out to switch it on & off.
I'm not brill with wattage, voltage so thus this question, appreciate any help. Thanks.
. TV's don't take much power, I have a 50" at home but only 90watt. just think of your van onsite fed by 16amp supply and get a generator which will supply the same. showers don't run on mains but 12v pump as its the water you need to heat which could use gas. get a low watt kettle 1000w. A silent diesel one will be cheaper to run but cost you more to purchase.
