Synopsis:
It’s official: We’re retiring the ole’ generator. As we’ve expanded our portable power station lineup at Jefferson Electric, we’ve concluded that they have the capacity and output for a full-day of electrical contracting (we generally prefer 2000W versions). The Etaker M2000 was the last straw in that it’s the first to check all the boxes using GaN technology, giving it a major size and weight advantage over the competition.

This is our #1 recommended PPS for electricians to date: Small, solid, powerful, and fully compatible with solar, DC, and AC outputs and inputs.

Are you an electrician still using gas power? Thinking of making the switch? Already have? Let us know in the comments if you’ve got any competitors you’d recommend!

  2. great tool for rural areas construction, used by 2 guys whole day. sweet….only problem is MC4 connector-hard to unplug sometimes at very cold weather-so keep it warm

  3. Hey man love the videos.

    Wanna be electrician here:

    Left similar comment on a different video but since this has less views and fewer comments I hope it reaches you.

    I run a pool company in Southern California. Do all the electrical for my company. Pretty comfortable with the work I’m doing but usually sub out when I need to trench for hard conduit or run a line back to the main. Feel like I’m losing some money on jobs.

    Main reason being I don’t know how to bend conduit or codes for proper depth. That may seem basic but I usually am running flexible liquid tight 1/2 or 3/4. All above ground off a sub panel for the automation.

    Could you make a video on this for newbies???

    P.S. watched the video on the cable you ran for the Tesla charger and the cable that you can burry without conduit. Magical!! Probably what I’ll be running in the future.

  4. Come on Joel, this is very misleading. This unit has a MSRP of $2,649 and doesn't have enough power to start up my Sump Pump (2150 Watts). You could purchase a 10,000 watt propane fueled generator for half of the price and run your entire home. I know you are biased due to your business, but the cost of these "Green" solutions and their effectiveness, damage to the environment to build them, as well as, fuel to mine the minerals far outweigh the environmental savings. A bit of trivial knowledge, it takes a half of a million pounds of dirt from a mining operation to make ONE EV battery. The mining machines to extract the dirt to get the minerals burn 1,800 gallons of diesel fuel each per day (Front End Loader, Excavator, Dump Truck). Another bit of trivial knowledge, a developer wanted to build an Electrical charging station for Semi Trucks. They wanted 30 charging stations in the "Service Station" to support OTR trucks. The electric utility laughed at them because it would draw more power than the city they provided power to. Check out TFL Trucks YouTube channel and their Ford Lightning review. Pulling a 6,000lb trailer (with the extended battery) the effective range was 90 miles. The industry should be putting more research, development and resources into hydrogen fuel cells or LNG which have a lot less environmental impact and are exponentially more practical.

  5. Hi Joel, saw you on Jeff's channel and was hoping you could help. I ran a 6-3 NMD90 to a sub in my garage. When I went through the concrete wall I transitioned into Carlon 3/4" NM flex conduit for a sleeve. I kept the conduit and wire running on the other side of the wall 6 ft to the sub panel. Carlon says its good for 4 #6 conductors, but it's obviously sheathed. Because it's not a full conduit run, do the fill codes still apply. If so, am I still good? I'm in Ontario, but I'd appreciate any info you can provide.
