Hurricane Warning: Rush for Emergency Generators is Already Underway in 2005
The official start of Hurricane Season is still a month away, but the rush for emergency supplies has already begun. Electric Generators Direct.com (http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com), an online emergency generator superstore, is already experiencing stronger than usual demand for portable and standby generators. According to Jon Hoch, founder of the Romeoville, Ill.-based e-tailer, last year's quartet of Hurricanes severely altered the generator marketplace.Manufacturers built enough inventory to weather Hurricane Charley. But when Hurricane Frances blew ashore, every remaining generator in the country evaporated. Local hardware stores sold out in a matter of hours.
Many desperate homeowners had no choice but to buy overpriced professional-grade generators with features they'd never use. And some customers waited up to four months to receive their backordered generator. "By the time Ivan and Jean hit, it was impossible to find a reconditioned generator, let alone a new one," say Hoch. The Calm Before the Storm Climatologist William Gray recently revised his 2005 hurricane forecast, predicting 13 named tropical storms in the Atlantic, seven of which will become hurricanes, with three turning into major storms with winds clocking speed in excess of 111 miles per hour. Generator manufacturers are working overtime to replenish their inventories.
Many popular models are finally off backorder for the first time since last August. According to Hoch, now is the best time to purchase an emergency generator in nearly a year. "Generator prices are influenced by the simple economics of supply and demand," says Hoch. "The best time to buy is between power outages, when supplies are plentiful and promotions are prevalent."Even reconditioned generators, which were impossible to find just a few months ago, are slowly becoming available. But don't expect the inventory to last long, warns Hoch.Last year, millions of homeowners learned the importance of advanced emergency planning the hard way.
This year, however, many homeowners aren't willing to wait for a tropical storm to develop before bracing for the worst.

Electric Generators
Electric generators are used to supply power to homes, commercial and industrial establishments when there is a disruption of power. It is also used in places where there is no supply of electricity. Electric generators come in a wide variety of models, size, and prices. Choosing the right electric generator depends upon an individual's need. A homeowner first has to identify the appliances to be powered by the generator.
The total wattage required to run these appliances has to be added up, including the starting wattage requirement of some of the appliances such as refrigerators. This makes up the total wattage power required from the generator. Lights and other smaller appliances require 120 volts of power, whereas appliances like electric stoves and driers require 240 volts. It should be checked whether the generators have the necessary voltage ratings.

Portable Generators
Portable generators are used in homes and in places where there is no power or the need for power is minimum. Portable generators are generally smaller and are designed to use for a few. A portable generator of 5KW has enough power to keep lights, refrigerators, computers and televisions running for 7 to 8 hours. Portable generators are normally powered by gasoline, diesel, propane or natural gas. They are the most popular of all portable generators.
Gasoline generators are relatively less expensive but require frequent maintenance and have a shorter life span. Gasoline has a short shelf life and cannot be stored for a long time unless treated with stabilizers.
Diesel generators, on the other hand, are fuel-efficient, consume less fuel per kilowatt of power produced, have longer life and require less maintenance. Diesel can be stored for longer periods of time. However, they are harder to start in cold weather and noisy. Portable generators powered by natural gas...
