A methanol generator set is a device that converts the chemical energy of methanol into electrical energy. It generally uses an internal combustion engine to burn methanol to generate heat energy, which then drives the piston to move, converting the heat energy into mechanical energy. After that, a generator is used to convert the mechanical energy into electrical energy. Methanol is mixed with air in the internal combustion engine and then ignited by a spark plug, compression ignition, or other methods to release energy and drive the engine to operate.

The 5kW methanol generator set is a "portable and practical model" for ultra-micro power consumption scenarios, designed specifically for emergency use in single-person apartments, outdoor camping power supply, small digital device charging stations, and micro cultural and creative stalls. It adopts an ultra-lightweight design, with a total weight of only 35kg, equipped with a foldable handle, which can be easily lifted and carried by one person without relying on tools; the body is only the size of a small suitcase, which can be directly placed in the trunk of a car to meet the needs of outdoor mobile power supply. Equipped with a high-efficiency micro methanol combustion system, its methanol consumption is as low as 0.8 liters per hour, and it supports direct connection to small methanol storage tanks (such as 5-liter portable buckets) without complex refueling processes; the output end is equipped with USB ports and 220V household sockets, which can simultaneously power devices such as mobile phones, laptops, small projectors, and mini refrigerators. It not only meets the emergency lighting and basic home appliance needs of single-person households, but also supports lightweight power consumption for outdoor camping and micro stalls, providing a "portable, fuel-saving, multi-interface" flexible power solution for ultra-micro scenarios.
