Hi everyone,

I’ve been looking into generator + battery (hybrid) setups as a more flexible and efficient solution for backup power. The idea of combining a traditional generator with a battery storage system seems promising you get the instant reliability of a generator with the clean, quiet operation of a battery.

This kind of hybrid system could be useful in situations like short outages (where the battery can handle the load) or longer blackouts (where the generator kicks in to recharge the battery or support heavier loads). It feels like a step toward smarter energy use without going fully off-grid.

Has anyone here set up or used a hybrid system like this? I’d love to hear about your experiences, pros and cons, or product recommendations.

Thanks!
