Portable Gas Generator BAN
Portable Gas Generator Ban has passed in California.
Will it be illegal to run your portable generator at a campsite? Will you be able to own a portable generator at your place of residence? The California Air Resource Board (CARB) was considering a regulation to ban small off-road engines, which included portable gas generators used by RVs (recreational vehicles).
California became the first state to outlaw the sale of single-engine off-road equipment (SORE). This law included lawnmowers and leaf blowers.
How does it affect portable generators? Any gas-powered generator under 25 horsepower, which is most portable generators, will be part of the ban.
This does not affect stationary generators.
You may use a generator during a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS).
Permits may be required to allow you to use a back-up generator. Again, CARB regulations allows you use a generator during PSPS. The proposed law to ban portable gas-powered engines has passed in California. This will affect portable gas generators in 2028. It seems to ban the sale of portable gas generators and finally the use of portable generators in 2028.
The intention would indicate that ZEE generators (with zero emissions equipment) would replace portable gas generators. Many RVers rely on portable gas generators to boondock. They use them when a hook-up is not available. Also, portable generators have served a crucial role during natural disasters and major power outages.
This post will be updated to any changes or any exemptions that may occur.
Thank you for reading this blog, I hope you will share it.

So far this law will affect:
- lawnmowers
- weed trimmers
- chainsaws
- golf carts
- specialty vehicles
- generators
- pumps
What is does not affect:
- on road motor vehicles
- off road motorcycles
- all-terrain vehicles (ATVs)
- boats
- snowmobiles
- model airplanes, car or boats (I believe RC hobby)
The goal is to transition to 100 percent zero-emission off-road vehicles and equipment by 2035.

Hepa Filter Air Purifier VS the Corona Virus
Hepa Filter Air Purifier VS the Corona Virus
Can a Hepa filter air purifier help catch the Corona Virus particles. The virus that causes Covid-19 is .125 microns in size. That is 125 nanometers in diameter. The range for a Hepa filter is .3 microns. You may say technically no. The answer is yes. No company will make this claim. However, Nasa has a study showing the efficiency of almost 100% at .01 microns and capturing particles below .3 micron level. NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)
What does this mean? It is capable of removing lingering particles in the air. The corona virus can linger up to 3 hours in the air.
Who has purchased? New York city public school system purchased 30,000. (November-2020)
What are the benefits of running a Hepa filter air purifier? Filtering allergens would help in the case of others coughing, sneezing ect. Hepa filter use – Hepa filtration has been used post World War 2 to capture airborne pathogens. So, another positive benefit.
What does a Hepa Filter air purifier capture? Smoke, dust, dust mites, pollen, pet dander, viruses, bacteria, mold spores.
All this said. Please follow CDC recommended guidelines. Wash your hands regularly. Social distance and wear a face mask. Please note – using disinfectants to clean counters is recommended for landing droplets.

With nearly 5 million children getting COVID vaccines, no safety problems have been seen, CDC director says

Additionally, masks are selling out in America. I’m speaking of a new mask Hilipert KF94 Fish Type Mask. This is a very comfortable mask to wear, easier to breath, thicker and yet feels lighter. They are growing in popularity.
KF stands for Korean filter. 94 relates to the percentage, which is 94% of particles down to the 0.3 micron level filtered, Hilipert KF94 uses a 4 layer active filtration system. Reaching the equivalent highest filter rating by the FDA.
Why do I like these masks? My ears were becoming sore. These mask have an elastic ear-loop. It helps with the fitting. The elastic helps answer the question regarding fits all sizes. It does and smoothly. It also helps if you wear glasses. A wire bridge allows fitting near the nose and helps address another issue of fogging on your glasses. My glasses would fog up with other masks. Also, I started using straps for my glasses. Sometimes my glasses would fall off regardless. This mask extends below the chin because it is threefold. 3D shaped allows contour fitting for eyes, nose, mouth and chin
They come in different colors, however, I prefer black. Get yours today.

Item List and Cost
Item List and Cost
Before I begin, I want to emphasize the build was driven by cost. That is finding the best deal. How much does it cost to build a solar generator? Buying a solar generator can be costly. Building your own generator allows you to expand the amount of power for substantially less cost. Basically, more power for less money.
Solar generators provide a reusable source of energy using solar panels. Gas generators can provide power as long as you have access to fuel. The point is during a natural disaster, these resources may not be readily available. Once you build your solar generator, you can use sun as a power source. Weather allowing of course.
Solar Panels – my cost for 2 120 watts 12v – 300.00
MPPT Tracer Solar Controller – my cost for 30 amp – 129.00
AGM Deep Cycle Batteries – my cost for 2 100 amp 12v – 340.00
Pure Sine Wave Inverter – my cost for 1000 watt 2000 surge – 200.00
Mt-5 or MT-50 meter – my cost for meter programmer – 35.00
Wiring 8 gauge – my cost for panels to solar controller – 30.00-50.00
Wiring Battery – my cost for 2 gauge battery to battery – 10.00-20.00
3M Double sided tape – my cost for flexible solar panels Tape – 20.00-30.00
MC4 Connectors – my cost making connectors – 15.00
Branch Connectors – my cost – 8.00
Fuses and breakers – my cost – 40.00
Misc. unforeseen cost – my cost – 100.00 buffer may more or less
and finally – Dual Battery Isolator – my cost – 100.00

Do you have snow tire chains because the roads are icy
The recent storm brought in more snow and another is on the way. Be save and make sure you have chains. The roads are very slick with ice. If you are a traveler or on the road, it may be a good idea to carry tire chains even on a clear day. If you run into a check point. You may be asked to turn around of fined if driving without chains on certain mountain roads.
This video is just an example of what can happen if not prepared.
