Read moreFrom dependable diesel and petrol Welling & Crossley generators that'll keep tools humming on site or lights on during outages, to portable lithium power stations offering flexible, quiet energy for camping or emergencies, their range covers all the bases.
Whether you're after heavy-duty backup at home, robust power on a remote worksite, or portable juice for off-grid weekends, each Welling & Crossley generator is built tough with quality and reliability you can count on when things get serious.
Clean power for sensitive gear. Welling and Crossley inverter generators run quietly enough for residential areas and camping spots while delivering stable electricity for phones, laptops, and medical equipment.
Long-running, fuel-efficient units built for extended operation. Welling & Crossley generators in diesel configuration handle construction sites, farms, and anywhere you need reliable power running for hours or days straight.
Battery-powered units for silent operation. Recharge from solar, mains, or vehicle, ideal when generator noise isn't an option or regulations ban combustion engines.
Combine your Welling and Crossley portable generator with camping inverters for hybrid setups, or pair with portable solar panels for camping and camping solar blankets for renewable charging. Power your camping air conditioners or other high-draw equipment reliably.

Most Welling & Crossley generators support automatic transfer switch installation for seamless home backup. Your electrician installs a transfer switch between your mains and switchboard that detects power outages and automatically starts your generator. Larger models often include an electric start specifically for this purpose. Smaller Welling and Crossley portable generators need manual starting and switching. Check your specific model's compatibility before purchasing transfer switch equipment, as not all units support auto-start functions.
Diesel Welling & Crossley generators burn roughly 30–40% less fuel than equivalent petrol models under sustained loads. A 5kW diesel unit might use 1.5L/hour at 75% load, while petrol uses 2.2L/hour. Diesel is great for extended runtime (8+ hours daily), while petrol Welling and Crossley portable generators cost less upfront but burn more fuel. For occasional use (storms, camping), petrol makes sense. For daily operation or commercial use, diesel offers better value.
Your Welling & Crossley inverter generator typically meet residential noise limits for daytime operation (usually 55dB at property boundary). Check your local council regulations though; some areas enforce stricter limits or ban generators during certain hours. National parks and camping areas often restrict generator use to specific times (commonly 8am–8pm). Inverter models are your best bet for noise-restricted areas.
Absolutely! Welling and Crossley portable generators integrate seamlessly with solar systems. During cloudy weather or high-demand periods, your generator tops up batteries when solar falls short. Connect via a battery charger plugged into generator outlets. Some hybrid inverters automatically start generators when the battery voltage drops. This setup gives you solar's free power most days, plus generator reliability during extended bad weather. Size your generator to match your battery charging requirements.
Some Welling and Crossley generators include 12V DC charging outlets for topping up vehicle or auxiliary batteries. Output is typically 8–10A, suitable for trickle charging but not rapid charging. For serious battery charging, plug a proper multi-stage battery charger into your generator's 240V outlets instead. DC outputs on Welling & Crossley portable generators work for maintaining batteries during extended generator runtime, but don't rely on them as your primary solution.
A Welling and Crossley inverter generator typically operates from -10°C to 40°C safely. Below zero, use synthetic oil and expect slightly harder starting. Above 40°C, generators derate (produce less power) to prevent overheating — expect 5–10% reduction at 45°C. A diesel Welling & Crossley generator handles heat better than a petrol one. Store generators in shade during hot weather. Extreme cold below -15°C needs engine block heaters for reliable starting.
