Yeah... My 7kwh generator is the size of a large wheelbarrow and weighs a good 250 lbs.

Not to mention, loud as all get out at that size.

It also needs a decent amount of maintenance to keep it running (or it needs to run frequently).

Personally... Ev with a swappable battery seems like a much better solution.

The only reason this even sorta makes sense right now is that we're in a really weird transition period where gas is available everywhere and it's still hard to find batteries/chargers.

This isn't a tech problem, it's an infrastructure problem. It should be treated that way.
