    Easiest and most Portable Electrical Setup

    Inergy Kodiak. Better than goal zero. Recharges a lot faster to.

    Solar "Generator"

    I have a Kodiak. Wonderful piece of equipment although yes, a bit pricey. I also have a 100ah AGM hanging on it. Powers our Dometic CFX50 fridge, Maxxair roof fan, desktop fan, TV/DVD and all our device charging needs. Charges quickly when we are driving, from shore, from our portable solar or...

    Portable power station - what are you using?

    Ah, the solar generator haters surface again. Comments from people who've never even owned or used one.

    Portable power station - what are you using?

    Inergy Kodiak here w/ 12v vehicle charging, solar, generator or shore power.

    Bringing along my 3D Printer, great tool!

    You'd pretty much have to run it on shore power or a generator. 3D prints generally take hours and hours.

    Bringing along my 3D Printer, great tool!

    Interesting topic. I have several 3D printers and although we're only weekend warriors, I can't imagine giving up my 3D printing hobby / business for full time van life. Not much info out there on folks who have gone mobile with their printers.

    Kodiak discussion

    You can't regulate ignorance, if a person can't read for more than 2 minutes it's their problem. Long live the Solar Generator!

    Kodiak discussion

    "false and abusive use of the term "generator" Wow, maybe we need a new enforcement agency to track down those ugly perpetrators. This sounds like a serious problem.

    Kodiak discussion

    Bottom line is not sure much of that really matters to me in the end. The Kodiak more than meets my power needs, I can recharge relatively fast, it's totally portable and built like a tank. I know some of you guys like to analyze and dissect every little neutron, but most don't really care...

    Kodiak discussion

    Here's what I know. BTW, I have no association and don't make a dime off anyone including Inergy. I'm just a regular guy doing a van conversion who did some research... started looking at Goal Zero first, then found the Kodiak and decided that it was the best option for me. Never heard of a...

    Kodiak discussion

    No doubt there's a lot of "solar generator" bashing here. Funny since most have never owned one. I've said it before, who really gives a rip what they are called. Most everyone out there calls them solar generators, works for me. I swear some people here must lose sleep over the term. Seems like...

    Solar Generator

    The 12v cig lighter ports are 15 amps each. No, it doesn't exceed 12v output.

    I saw that too. Will be interesting to see what he does with his build. Good thing they are small.

    Solar Generator

    I ran a wire from the Maxxair down to where I have the Kodiak and put on cig lighter plug. The Maxxair is on one 12v port and my fridge is on the other. I do have a splitter on one for a desk fan or whatever.
