Generators & Power Stations: Battery Power & Vibration Isolation
This range covers two different jobs: portable power stations for silent, battery-based power where mains isn't available, and generator vibration isolators for reducing noise and vibration where a fuel generator is installed or mounted on-site.
The Range
- Portable Power Stations: Battery-powered stations spanning light-duty units for camping and tool charging through to higher-capacity models for home backup and job sites, with support for mains, solar and fast charging.
- Generator Isolators: Rubber vibration isolators for generator mounting, rated by weight capacity, reducing vibration and noise transfer at the mounting point.
Choosing the Right Power Station
- By output and capacity: Lower-output, lower-capacity units suit camping, tool charging and light recreational use. Higher-output, higher-capacity units suit home backup, work sites and heavier continuous loads.
- Battery vs fuel: A power station runs silently with no fuel, fumes or engine noise, at the cost of a fixed capacity rather than refuelling for continuous runtime.
- Charging: Most power stations take mains, solar and fast-charging input — check your available charging source before choosing a capacity.
- Isolator selection: Choose by the equipment's weight rating, not by generator size alone, and confirm mounting orientation before ordering.

People Also Ask — Generators & Power Stations
Q: What's the difference between a portable power station and a generator?
A power station stores energy in a battery and is charged in advance from mains, solar or a vehicle; a generator produces power on demand by burning fuel. A power station runs silently with no fumes, but its capacity is fixed until recharged, while a generator can run continuously as long as it has fuel.
Q: What battery chemistry do portable power stations typically use?
Many modern power stations use LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate), a chemistry known for a longer cycle life and safer thermal performance than standard lithium-ion batteries.
Q: How do I choose the right wattage and capacity?
Add up the running wattage of what you need to power at once, and check it against the station's rated AC output. For overall runtime, compare your total load against the station's capacity in Wh — higher-capacity models suit home backup and job sites, while smaller ones suit camping and tool charging.
Q: Do I need a generator isolator with a power station?
No — isolators are for fuel generators with a running engine, to reduce vibration and noise at the mounting point. A battery power station has no engine and doesn't need one.
Q: Can I charge a power station with solar?
Many portable power stations support solar input alongside mains and fast-charging options, though this varies by model — check the specific unit's charging inputs.
