GoGen. Small portable generator.
Maybe I'm a bit behind the times being a desk-jockey now, but hadn't seen this before and thought it was a cool idea. It's a small portable generator. It's called the GoGen and is advertised as being able to charge or run a cellphone, notebook, laptop, multi volt adapters, small water heaters, rechargeable lanterns, and all other 12 volt and smaller voltage appliances and devices through the USB port or inverter directly.
GoGEN packages are available with complete accessories including a carrying back pack, 75 watt AC/DC inverter with USB port, flex light, fire starter, powerful internal 7.25 /12 volt battery, external battery hookup, 10 watt 12 volt solar panel and 1 year limited warranty.
This small 5 lb portable generator is the most versatile bang for your buck!
Specifications:
GOGEN- 8 1/4" high x 6" deep x 6" wide.
Weight - 7 lbs. with internal battery.
Solar panel: 14" x 11" x 1" Weight 5 lbs.
It looks like something you could put in your bug out bag.
