Need advice about generators: I have not seen anything about portable solar generators on here. But I keep seeing tons of ads for the solar ones and am considering one for whole house needs in the event of power loss. You guys are the expert preppers. Any advice? Thanks in advance!~

I agree, solar is a scam. It barely works to keep the lights on and charge phones. I work where they have a top of the line solar power system, and it keeps running out of power during the day. However I do have a Bluetti Solar Generator system. 2KW system that has inverter, lithium battery pack, multiple ins and outs and includes 3 panels. Can charge on AC or DC, connecting for windmill, etc. I have that system, but bought more panels to go with it.
That said, I also have 3 generators, one is a whole house gas/propane system, one is 6000 Watts and one is 2500 watts. Plus 100 gallons of gas. The reason I have the solar power system is for long term power when the shit hits the fan. What do you do when you run out of fuel? Use it for refrigerator or lights.
