AIQ starts at $2,699 MSRP — $5,000–$10,000 less than a traditional permanently installed home standby system.

The AIQ difference
Not justA generator.
The home standby replacement that refuses to stay home. AIQ gives you serious backup power for the house, then rolls out for the campsite, jobsite, event, or wherever the next weekend takes you.

Six reasons AIQ is different.
Home-grade backup power designed to move when you do.
No permanent install
Skip the concrete pad and contractor-led installation. Roll AIQ outside, connect it for backup, and keep your options open.
Ready for weather
A weather-ready enclosure lets AIQ live outdoors so it is there when rain, wind, snow, or a storm interrupts the grid.
Inverter power
Clean, stable inverter power is designed for the sensitive electronics and connected devices that fill a modern home.
Three fuel options
Use gasoline, propane, or natural gas. Fuel Sense helps you choose the fuel that is ready when you need it.
Power that moves
Hook it up at home, then roll the same capable generator to a jobsite, campsite, event, or weekend away.

The permanent home standby alternative
AIQ MSRP is $2,699. Compared with a traditional installed standby project, that can mean $5,000–$10,000 more stays in your pocket — because you are not automatically paying for the work around a permanently installed unit.

THE OLD WAY
POWER
THAT STAYS PUT.
Traditional standby generators are permanent. They need a concrete pad, a contractor, and a single job: wait beside the house.
AIQ changes the equation.
PORTABLE OR ANCHORED
Keep the wheel kit on when you want power that moves. Remove it for a lower-profile, anchored home placement when a dedicated backup setup makes more sense.

HOME. AND AWAY.
Power for
One generator.Every life.
Versatility is the point. AIQ is built first for home standby power — and goes wherever you do after that.
01 — Primary
Home standby power
Storms, outages, blackouts. AIQ powers the essentials — fridge, HVAC, well pump, lights, internet — the moment the grid goes dark.
02 — Primary
Off-grid property power
Cabins, ranches, workshops, barns. Reliable power anywhere the utility doesn't reach — and quiet enough to keep the quiet.
03 — Primary
Jobsite & DIY power
Clean inverter power for compressors, saws, and sensitive tools. Roll it in, plug in, get to work — no jobsite hookup required.
RV & travel power
Off-grid trips and weekend hauls.
Tailgate & sport power
Game-day power, anywhere you park.
And more power
Wash the ATV, run the workshop, light the party — endless.
Weather ready
The weather Doesn't wait.
Neither should your power. AIQ lives outside, ready for the moment the grid drops — rain, wind, snow, or storm.
Rain
Rain outside. Power inside.
Wind
When the weather moves, AIQ stays ready.
Snow
Cold weather should not stop the essentials.
Storms
The grid goes down. Your home does not.
Real life power
Keep Life on.

The difference
Standby power. Take it with you.
When the lights go out, start AIQ from the safety of home. When the weekend comes, roll the same whole-home power wherever you need it—without giving up the convenience of a permanent hookup.
