Benefits of technology

The present portable power plant has improved efficiency through better engine design, improved generator for hot or cold climates and inclement weather, low fuel use, reduced vibration, and an improved belt drive. The belt drive and pulley assembly have a common rotational plane that keeps the drive belt aligned, and the engine coolant temperature is maintained for better fuel efficiency and longer engine life. The technical effects of these improvements are increased efficiency, simplified operation, reduced fuel consumption, and improved power output for various electrical equipment.
