As above chargers and power supplies need an invertor to supply a constant feed I have seen more than one person blow there power supply with the cheep 2stroke gennys as there power flow is up surges as the engine does.If you are thinking of also running a caravan I would go for 1000w minimum as the 700w are ok but you need to accommodate the spike when things are 1st turned on, If you want to run water heaters etc you will need 2500+. but as said a caravan battery should last the weekend and water heaters, fridges etc can run better of the gas,but if you are working on you car in the awning in the evening…or you are the party animal that all come to see some 240v lighting is a must

Beware of the cheep invertor generators as I found their overload protection was not all that good and important bits get fried before the circuit breaker goes off they will want to charge nearly what you paid for it to fix it.

if you can afford it a 1000w Kipo would do you a treat
