If you need short term use of a high drawing appliance such as a hair dryer (or other heated styler), iron etc please advise - we have an onsite generator to top up the power batteries & simply need to be aware to monitor the voltage more intently when such appliances are to be used.
We also have a clothes dryer attached to our generator system, if you need it - $4 for fuel
