Solar help

[B and C]

They are energy efficient in that the electricity they consume is used more efficiently, ie., 90+%? efficient rather than the 80%? efficient regular use. This doesn't mean they use a LOT less power than other comparable devices. These are meant for household use where you are trying to keep the energy bill down. Hopefully someone can explain it better.

I use propane for cooking. It is a LOT more efficient (cheaper) than electricity. Anything you can make work off native 12V or use propane for is better. I have a small inverter and don't remember the last time I used it. Any heavy electrical hitters (microwave/convection oven/coffee pot), I use the generator.

My electronics charge from 12V. The USB chargers are 12V and the computer/TV are upconverted from 12V to 19V. Use car chargers for anything you can.
