I live in the USA and was thinking about getting an Electric Generator just for my Livng Room.
So it could power my T.V. my DVD Player and my Lamp.
Now I know they have Electric Generators that have Battery Power some are Hand Cranked.
I just need to know some things first about how they work?
I know the Home Outlet has 120 Volts at 15 AMPs so 120 x 15 = 1,800 WATTs.
So my Living Room Outlet is giving 1,800 WATTs of Power and I know just because my T.V. is pluged into the Outlet it is not useing the whole 15 AMPs.
So if I got an Electric Generator and it gives 10 AMPs at 120 Volts would it not Power the T.V. because the T.V. is not useing 15 AMPs?
Or how does this whpole thing work?
