ETQ TG1200 Gas Powered Portable Generator Review

The ETQ TG1200 is definitively the slenderest product which has been released by ETQ thus far.

Looking more like something you would cart through an airport rather than place in the backyard to power your home, the Xantrex Technologies 802-1500 XPower portable “power pack” has they like to call it – is a stone’s throw away from an actual home power generator – but worth looking at nonetheless.

If you want to use the most advanced “green” fuel on the market in your home generator – the Champion 71108 is an excellent option. Relying solely on propane technology, this home generator is cheaper to run, and far more environmentally friendly than many other products out there in this industry.
