About

Welcome to Generator Basics, your definitive guide to understanding and utilizing generators. I’m your guide and the creator of this site, dedicated to providing accessible, reliable, and comprehensive information about generators. I founded this site out of my personal experience, which I hope will resonate with many of you.

Years ago, I found myself in a position of need for a home generator. Living in an area where power outages were not uncommon, I wanted a backup power source to keep my home running smoothly during those challenging times. However, I was a novice in this field, and the journey to make an informed purchase was far from straightforward. The overwhelming sea of information online was scattered, complex, and in many cases, contradictory. What I needed was a simple, comprehensive guide about generators, but what I found was a confusing maze.

Seeing this gap, I decided to plunge into the world of generators, doing the hard work of researching, testing, and understanding this essential tool so you wouldn’t have to. This mission fueled me to establish Generator Basics, an informative and user-friendly platform designed to simplify the complex world of generators for everyone.

Here at Generator Basics, we break down complex terminologies and concepts into easy-to-understand language, whether you’re a beginner learning about the differences between portable and standby generators, or an experienced user looking for maintenance tips. We cover a variety of topics, from buying guides and product reviews to tutorials on how to safely install and use your generator. We believe in empowering you to make informed decisions about purchasing, using, and maintaining a generator that best suits your needs.

At the end of the day, Generator Basics isn’t just about the nuts and bolts of generators. It’s about creating a community where information is shared freely, questions are answered clearly, and everyone, regardless of their experience level, feels confident and educated about their generator needs. We’re excited to be part of your journey and can’t wait to power up your knowledge.

Thank you for visiting Generator Basics. Let’s embark on this empowering journey together.
