How long does it take to charge the power station with the 2 panels provided with the unit.#2 how long does it take with the 1000 w wind turbine attachment.
Hi Charles,
Thank you for reaching out and for showing interest in our products. Charging the Nature's Generator Powerhouse with two 410w solar panels takes approximately eight to ten hours, and approximately fifteen to seventeen hours when charging via a 350w wind turbine alone. However, the recharge time with solar panels and wind turbines will depend on the strength of the sunlight and the windspeed. You can also lessen the recharge time by charging the generator via solar and wind simultaneously. If you have any follow-up questions, you may reach our support directly via (800) 975-7909, or email us at support@naturesgenerator.com. We'll be more than happy to assist you!

Is it OK to leave the Power House plugged into the main power socket of the house? So that it stays charged.
Hi Carlos,
Thank you for reaching out. Yes, you can leave the powerhouse generator plugged into your wall outlet since it has an overcharge protection feature. However, we highly suggest you use the solar panels if you're planning to leave it plugged in to save from electricity bills. If you have any follow-up questions, you may reach our support directly via (800) 975-7909, or email us at support@naturesgenerator.com. We'll be more than happy to assist you!

Hi Joann,
Thank you for your query! The Powerhouse solar panel is graded 410-watt each. Also, the solar input might be lower than 410-watt depending on the strength of the sunlight in your area. It may also lessen the charge depending on the battery level of the generator to avoid battery damage such as over charged battery.
