Powerology Pater II Portable Generator is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 51,500, brand new and sealed, with a 472.5Wh battery and 700W output. That is twice the stored energy of the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator, in a battery power station that needs no fuel, oil or engine servicing. The Powerology Pater II Portable Generator supplies 230V AC alongside USB-C and USB-A outputs, so a television, a laptop and phones share one source during a blackout. Powerology lists it in grey, and our team confirms the colour on hand over WhatsApp. Find it on the first floor of the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for households and small businesses that lose more than lights when power goes, the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator handles the full evening load. A 32-inch TV, a decoder, a Wi-Fi router and a standing fan can all run together within its 700W rating. In Kilimani apartments and Eldoret family homes, that means the news, school revision and phone charging carry on. Salons, cyber cafés and M-Pesa agents use this capacity to keep clippers, a router and a till working, so customers are not turned away when the street goes dark.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops push petrol generators or wired inverter kits for this job, Mascom International recommends the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator for indoor backup with no installation. You carry it to the room that needs power, plug in, and switch on. At Mascom International, we're seeing households move up to this tier once they work out how much energy a TV evening uses.

Common Questions About the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator
What is the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator price in Kenya?
The Powerology Pater II Portable Generator sells for KSh 51,500 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, as sealed retail stock. The price covers the 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to every county, so nothing is paid until the unit is in your hands. It sits KSh 23,800 above the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator and KSh 23,000 below the Powerology Pater III Portable Generator. Pay with Lipa na M-Pesa, card or cash at the counter, and message us on WhatsApp to confirm a unit is on the shelf before you travel.
Is the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator worth the extra KSh 23,800 over the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator?
Yes, if your outage list includes a television or fan, because the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator gives 472.5Wh and 700W against 236.25Wh and 300W on the smaller tier. That is double the stored energy and more than double the output. Per watt-hour, it also costs less: about KSh 109 against about KSh 117. If you only need a router, phones and a laptop alive, the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator does that job for KSh 27,700. Choose by the devices you must keep running, not by the size of the box.
Can the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator keep a TV, decoder and router on through an evening blackout?
Yes, the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator can run a 50W TV, a 15W decoder and a 10W router together for up to about 6 hours. That is 472.5Wh divided by a 75W load, before the energy lost in conversion. Add a 40W standing fan and the ceiling falls to about 4 hours. For a typical KPLC outage after dinner, that keeps the evening news, a DStv or GOtv decoder and your Safaricom connection running until supply returns.
Is the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator good for a small shop or salon?
Yes, the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator suits a small shop, salon or M-Pesa agent that needs light equipment running through outages. Hair clippers, a card reader, a router, a phone charger and LED tubes together draw far below its 700W rating. Read the watt figure on each device label and add them up before you rely on it. Hair dryers and hot combs often draw over 1,000W, so they need the Powerology Pater III Portable Generator or mains supply. A barber keeps cutting through an afternoon outage instead of sending customers home.
How many times can the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator charge a laptop?
The Powerology Pater II Portable Generator stores close to eight times the energy of a 60Wh laptop battery. Conversion losses cut that figure in real use, so plan on noticeably fewer full charges, which still covers a working week of evening outages for one person. A laptop plugged in and working on AC power draws about 60W, which gives a ceiling of nearly 8 hours of use. Lighter ultrabooks draw less, so they last longer still.
Does the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator make noise or fumes like a petrol generator?
No, the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator runs from a battery, so it makes no engine noise and gives off no exhaust. You can place it beside a bed, a cot or a workstation without worrying about carbon monoxide. There is no fuel to buy, store or carry from the petrol station. Your running cost is the electricity used to recharge it from the wall, which is small next to a jerrican of petrol each week. Neighbours in a flat will not hear it either, which matters in blocks where caretakers refuse generators.
Can I take the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator camping or on field work?
Yes, the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator works well as a base camp supply for weekend trips and field assignments. Four phones charged twice, a laptop charged twice and two small lamps running for five hours each night use roughly 340Wh across a weekend. That fits inside its 472.5Wh battery with room to spare. Charge it fully from the wall before you leave, and keep it shaded and dry in the vehicle or tent. Use the USB ports for phones and lamps, since they skip the loss that comes with the AC socket.
Who should buy the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator, and who should skip it?
The Powerology Pater II Portable Generator suits families who want TV evenings during outages, home-office workers, salons and NGO field staff running laptops off-grid. It is the middle tier, with room for screens and fans without the cost of the largest unit. Skip it if a router and phones are all you need, since the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator saves KSh 23,800. Skip it too for fridges or heavy tools, where the Powerology Pater III Portable Generator fits.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Output
- 472.5Wh battery capacity — the total energy stored, enough to run a 10W Wi-Fi router for up to about 47 hours, or two nights and the day between.
- 700W output — the steady load the unit carries; add the watts on your device labels and keep the total under it.
- Double the stored energy of the 236.25Wh tier — twice the hours for the same set of devices during a long outage.
- Battery power station design — energy is stored in a built-in battery and turned into household current when you switch on.
- Silent supply — the unit switches straight to output when you press the power button, with no pull-start, no choke and no warm-up time while the room sits in darkness.
Ports and Compatibility
- 230V AC socket — the same voltage as household mains, so a TV, decoder, fan or laptop adapter plugs straight in.
- USB-C output — charges phones, tablets and USB-C laptops directly, which saves the energy lost in a mains adapter and frees the AC socket for the TV.
- USB-A output — powers older phones, USB fans, reading lamps and portable speakers from a standard cable, handy for children's devices and the bedside lamp.
- Shared 700W limit across all outputs — use the AC socket and USB ports together while the combined load stays under rating.
- Label check — devices that heat, such as kettles, irons and hair dryers, usually draw well above 700W and should stay on mains.
Runtime Planning
- Divide 472.5 by the total watts of your devices for the hour ceiling; real runtime is lower because conversion uses energy.
- 50W TV, 15W decoder and 10W router, 75W in total — about 6 hours, a full evening of viewing.
- Add a 40W standing fan for a 115W load — about 4 hours, enough for a hot night until supply comes back.
- 60W laptop working on AC — nearly 8 hours, close to a full working day from one charge.
- Four LED bulbs at 9W each, 36W in total — about 13 hours, light for the whole night in a small house, with energy left over for phones.
Value Across the Pater Range
- KSh 51,500 for 472.5Wh — about KSh 109 per watt-hour of stored energy, a useful figure for comparing power stations.
- About KSh 117 per watt-hour on the 236.25Wh tier — this unit gives more energy for each shilling spent.
- About KSh 79 per watt-hour on the 945Wh tier — the largest tier costs less per unit of energy if you need the capacity.
- KSh 23,800 above the 300W tier and KSh 23,000 below the 1200W tier — the gaps are almost equal in shillings.
- Middle position — enough output for screens and fans, without paying for heavy-appliance capacity you may never use in a normal household outage.
Build and Use
- Grey casing as listed by Powerology — a neutral finish that suits a lounge, an office corner or a shop counter.
- No fuel tank or engine — nothing to service, no oil changes, no spark plugs and no fuel stored in the house where children play.
- Indoor safe — no exhaust, so it can run in a closed room, unlike a petrol generator that must stay outside.
- Keep it dry and with air space around it — it is not a rain-proof unit, so cover it outdoors.
- Recharge between outages from a wall socket — a full battery ready for the next blackout is the habit that makes it useful.
