Faster Sun Recharging

Add up to 4 solar panels for faster sun recharging (one panel is included free).

Runtime On The Screen

Large LED screen shows exact runtime remaining for whatever’s plugged in.

See the PPG-1200 in action

Sixty seconds. One button. One real-world test. Watch the new PPG-1200 run a fridge, a CPAP, a fan, and a lamp at the same time — and see exactly how the screen reads out runtime as it goes.

Independent test video. Results reflect that test setup; your runtime will vary by device wattage and conditions.

PPG-1200 powering a refrigerator in a sunlit kitchen during a power outage

Plug the fridge in. The PPG-1200 keeps the food cold.

It’s 8:47 AM. The grid just dropped.The fridge stops humming. The CPAP went quiet two hours ago. Your phone’s at 12%. The lights are out.

Now picture the same morning with the PPG-1200 already plugged in: fridge still running, CPAP humming, phones charging, lights on. You made coffee. Life kept moving.

CPAP keeps running. Bedside lamp stays on. Family sleeps through it.

“During a 6.5-day ice storm outage, the generator kept my phone charged and ran my electric blanket at night.”— Verified PPG-1200 owner, Amazon review, Feb 2026

What it sounds like without backup power. Real messages during Winter Storm Fern:

“My CPAP battery died last night. I stayed awake terrified I would stop breathing. It’s 12 degrees in my bedroom and silence is terrifying.”
“My grandmother is on oxygen and we have about 4 hours of battery left. The roads are solid ice so we can’t evacuate. I don’t know what we’re going to do when the machine beeps for the last time.”
“My phone is at 4%. Once it dies, I have no way to know if the power company even knows we are out. I’m cut off from the world.”

Winter Storm Fern left millions in the dark — and it won’t be the last storm to do so. Get the Patriot Power Generator 1200 today and you’ll be ready.

Full-size fridge: 9 hrs continuous / 34 hrs cycling Cycling is how fridges work in real life. Here’s why that matters ↓

The #1 myth about running a fridge in a blackout

Most people think you have to run the fridge continuously to keep food safe. You don’t — and if you try, you’ll burn through power right when your family needs every drop.

  1. Your fridge cycles on and off. Listen for the compressor. When it kicks on, it’s cooling. When it shuts off, the inside is cold enough — that’s your cue to unplug the generator.
  2. Keep the door closed. A full fridge holds temperature longer than an empty one. The CDC says food stays safe up to 4 hours in a closed fridge, 48 hours in a full freezer.
  3. Location matters. Move the fridge to a cooler spot (basement, north side of the kitchen) if possible. Less ambient heat = less cycling needed.
  4. Recharge during downtime. When the fridge isn’t cycling, plug your panel into the sun and top the generator back up.

Run times are approximate. Results vary based on appliance condition, age, and usage. Heating elements (microwaves, hair dryers, electric cookers) draw more than passive electronics, so they run shorter. Questions about a specific device? Call our USA-based team at 1-800-680-8504 — we’ll tell you straight.

5 Reasons 334,759+ Americans Have Trusted 4Patriots Since 2008

We know trust is earned, not given. Especially when your family’s safety is on the line.

Decades of preparedness experience

American, family-owned company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. Over 18 years building backup-power gear and emergency essentials for everyday Americans.

Built to last

The PPG-1200’s LiFePO4 battery is rated for 4,000 charge cycles — nearly 11 years of daily use. Most generators in this class quit after 2,500. We build for the long haul.

Brutally simple

One button starts it. A clear display shows what’s running. No apps. No Wi-Fi. No setup wizard. Plug in what matters and go.

90-day satisfaction guarantee

Don’t love it in the first 90 days? Send it back, full refund. That’s 3X longer than typical retail returns. We take the risk so you don’t have to.

USA-based customer service

Call 1-800-680-8504 anytime. You’ll talk with real Americans — Christina, Corrie, Lisa, Ray, and the team — who use these generators themselves. Not an overseas call center.

Is the PPG-1200 right for YOU?

You’re a good fit if:

  • You want to keep the essentials running during an outage: fridge, CPAP, phones, lights, fans, and small appliances.
  • You live in a single-family home, apartment, condo, RV, or cabin.
  • You want stored power that doesn’t need fuel, doesn’t need an outdoor place to run, and doesn’t make noise.
  • You’re comfortable carrying 26 lbs room-to-room.

You’re NOT a good fit if:

  • You want to run your entire house off one device, including central AC, an electric water heater, or an electric stove.
  • You’re looking for whole-home automatic transfer switching.
  • You need to run high-draw construction tools continuously for 8+ hours.

If you’re in the “not a good fit” column, we’d rather you not buy. Save up for a $20,000+ whole home generator.

Honest expectations.

✅ It will run

Fridge (cycling) · CPAP / oxygen (within wattage) · phones · lights · fans · TV · laptop · router · microwave (short bursts) · small appliances · RV essentials · craft show power tools · cabin coffee maker

❌ It will NOT run

Central AC · electric water heaters · electric stoves · whole-home circuit panels · indefinite solar power · every appliance simultaneously

8 outlets, every device covered.

Whether you’re plugging in a fridge, a CPAP, two phones, and a lamp at the same time — or running a single device for hours — the PPG-1200 has every port you’ll need.

PPG-1200 front panel showing the LCD screen flanked by AC outlets, USB ports, and circular control dials
  • 2 × AC outlets — wall-style plugs for fridges, CPAPs, lamps, fans, microwaves, TVs
  • 1 × DC outlet — for car-style accessories
  • 1 × cigarette-lighter outlet — for camping, RVs, automotive devices
  • 2 × USB-A ports — for phones, tablets, fans, lights
  • 2 × USB-C fast-charge ports — 20× faster smartphone charging than USB-A

Plug in everything at once without overloading.

No apps. No Wi-Fi. No hackers.

A lot of newer “smart” generators come with companion apps, Wi-Fi setup, Bluetooth pairing, and required account creation just to use them.

The PPG-1200 doesn’t.

It has one button. It has a clear screen. It works the moment it comes out of the box. If the internet goes down — or if it’s never been connected — it works exactly the same.

That’s not a missing feature. That’s the design. Your backup power shouldn’t depend on a server in Seattle that might be down when you need it most.

No Wi-Fi No app No Bluetooth No internet

Easy as 1, 2, 3.

From the box to running your fridge in under 60 seconds. No tools. No app.

Unfold the panel

Open the foldable “briefcase” 100W panel and angle it toward the sun. About 9 lbs — easy to set up anywhere.

Plug the panel into the generator

One cable, one outlet. The LED screen lights up showing input wattage. That’s it.

Plug in your devices

Use any of the 8 front-facing outlets — AC, USB-A, USB-C, or DC. The screen tells you how long each device will run.

Then do the smart thing:

A 5-step ownership checklist — once it arrives.

  1. Charge it the day it arrives.
  2. Plug in your fridge for an hour. Watch the runtime.
  3. Plug in CPAP, phone, lamp. Get familiar.
  4. Mark a recharge date on your calendar.
  5. Know your backup BEFORE the lights go out.
“I connected it to a small refrigerator to see how it performs.”— Verified PPG-1200 buyer
“Initial startup was easy — haven’t needed it yet.”— David N., verified PPG-1200 owner

Test it the day it arrives. Trust it when the grid quits.

PPG-1200 stored neatly in a closet, ready for the next outage

Think back to the last outage in your area. Maybe it was last winter. Maybe it was last week. The first 30 minutes are always the same — confusion, the fridge stops humming, the phone lights up with texts asking if you’re okay.

Now picture a different version. The fridge still hums. The bedroom lamp is on. Someone in the house with a CPAP is sleeping through the night. Your phone is at 100%. You sent a text to your daughter: “We’re fine.”

You’ll never wonder if you were ready. You’ll just be ready.

That’s what $199 today starts.

Storm-Tested

6.5 days. 28°F house. One generator.

In February 2026, an ice storm took down the grid for nearly a week. One PPG-1200 owner watched her house drop to 28°F inside. Her phone was at 17% the first morning and she couldn’t reach her daughter to tell her she was safe.

She set up the PPG-1200 in the bedroom. Plugged in her phone. Then ran an electric blanket on a low setting for the next six nights. She slept warm. Her phone stayed at 100%. She got to text her daughter every morning.

When the lights came back on, she wrote us a review:

“6.5-day ice storm. House dropped to 28°F. The PPG-1200 kept my phone charged the entire time, plus ran an electric blanket at night so I didn’t freeze. I will tell every friend with kids about this generator.”— Amazon verified buyer (IL, Feb 2026)

That’s what $199 today buys you. Not a hypothetical. A backup that’s already been tested by someone exactly like you.
