Caravan Generators

It depends on what you're running. A 2.5-3.5kVA inverter generator handles the basics - lights, a 12V charger, laptop, and a small fridge. If you're running a rooftop air conditioner, you'll need at least 3.5-4.5kVA, and ideally 4.5-6kVA if you want to run the aircon and charge batteries at the same time. True Gear stocks caravan generators from 2.5kVA up to 6.8kW, so there's something for every setup.

Inverter generators are the go-to for caravanning. They produce clean, stable power (pure sine wave) that's safe for sensitive electronics like laptops, TVs, and CPAP machines. They're also much quieter and more fuel-efficient than conventional generators - most throttle down when demand is low. Conventional generators are louder, burn more fuel, and can cause issues with sensitive gear. Every generator True Gear stocks for caravans is inverter-type for exactly this reason.

Modern inverter generators are genuinely caravan-friendly. Most run between 52-65 dB at full load - roughly the noise level of a normal conversation. At low load they're quieter again. Brands like Westinghouse, Champion, and Briggs & Stratton in the True Gear range are all designed with noise reduction in mind. That said, always check your caravan park's rules - some sites have quiet hours or generator restrictions.

True Gear stocks inverter generators from Westinghouse, Champion, Briggs & Stratton, and Welling & Crossley. All are petrol-powered inverter units suited to caravan and camping use, ranging from 2.5kVA up to 6.8kW. Each brand carries Australian warranty support.
