Need a generator for a RV trip? Camping? Backup power during outages? Inverter generators are the answer—but shopping for one can be confusing.

Yes, inverter generators are better than old-style generators for two reasons. First, an inverter generator throttles up or down depending on demand . . . that makes them more efficient (and saves on fuel).
