Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Powerology Pater I Portable Generator is available at Mascom International for KSh 27,700, brand new and sealed, with a 236.25Wh battery, 300W rated output and 600W peak output. The Powerology Pater I Portable Generator is a battery power station, not a petrol engine, so it runs silently and gives off no fumes. It carries a 230V AC outlet, a 100W USB-C port, an 18W USB-A Quick Charge 3.0 port, a 15W wireless charging pad and a 120W car port. You can see it running at our store in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for families, shop owners and field staff across Kenya, the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator covers the hours when KPLC supply drops without warning. A Safaricom or Airtel home router, a few LED bulbs and the family phones keep running, so homework, M-Pesa payments and work calls carry on. Small businesses in Westlands, Kisumu or Nakuru use a unit this size to keep a till, router and card reader alive until the lights return. On weekends it goes camping or on site visits, with a 100W solar input for topping up away from any socket.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell unmarked power banks with ratings nobody can check, Mascom International stocks the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator with figures matched to Powerology's own listing. Where a petrol generator needs fuel runs, servicing and outdoor space, this unit sits beside the TV stand and recharges from the wall. Customers across Nairobi tell us the first blackout after purchase is when the decision makes sense. Visit the store to test the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator with your own router, or order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator
How much is the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator in Kenya?
The Powerology Pater I Portable Generator costs KSh 27,700 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, sold as sealed retail stock. That price includes the 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties, so you pay only after the unit reaches you. If you need double the stored energy, the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator sits KSh 23,800 higher at KSh 51,500. Pay by M-Pesa, card or cash in store, and message us on WhatsApp to confirm stock before you travel.
How long will the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator keep a Wi-Fi router on during a KPLC power cut?
The Powerology Pater I Portable Generator can run a typical 10W home router for up to about 23 hours on its 236.25Wh battery. Real runtime lands lower, because turning battery power into 230V AC uses some energy. Many routers also run from the USB or car port, which loses less. Add two 9W LED bulbs and the ceiling falls to about 8 hours. For an evening outage, that keeps your Safaricom, Airtel or Telkom connection and the lights on until supply returns.
Should I buy the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator or the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator?
The Powerology Pater I Portable Generator suits light loads at KSh 27,700, while the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator doubles the battery to 472.5Wh and lifts output to 700W for KSh 51,500. The smaller unit covers routers, phones, lights and one laptop with ease. The larger one leaves room for a TV, decoder and fan through a full evening. Choose the smaller unit for connectivity and charging, and the larger one if your outage list includes a television.
Can the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator charge a laptop and phones at the same time?
Yes, the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator charges a laptop and several phones together, as long as the total draw stays under 300W. The 100W USB-C port charges most USB-C laptops directly, without the mains adapter. The 18W USB-A port and the 15W wireless pad handle two phones at once. The 236.25Wh battery holds close to four times the energy of a 60Wh laptop battery, so expect around three full laptop charges once conversion losses are counted.
Can I charge the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator with a solar panel?
Yes, the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator accepts solar input of up to 100W through its MPPT controller. MPPT means the controller keeps adjusting to draw as much as the panel can give as clouds pass. In theory, a 100W panel at full output refills the 236.25Wh battery in about two and a half hours. In practice, plan on longer, because panels rarely hold full output all day. Solar panels are a separate purchase, so ask us which connector fits first.
Is the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator safe to use inside the house?
Yes, the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator is safe indoors because it burns no fuel and releases no exhaust. Unlike a petrol generator, it can sit in a living room, bedroom or on a shop counter while running. Built-in protection guards against overcharging, overheating and short circuits. Keep it on a dry, flat surface with space around it for air. Its rated operating range of -10°C to 50°C covers normal indoor conditions anywhere in the country.
Can the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator run a fridge or an electric iron?
No, the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator is not meant for a fridge or an iron. Its rated output is 300W with a 600W peak, and a fridge compressor pulls a sharp surge each time it starts, while many clothes irons draw over 1,000W. Check the rating label on any appliance: if it shows more than 300W, it needs a bigger unit. The Powerology Pater III Portable Generator, rated at 1200W, is the tier for heavier loads.
Who should buy the Powerology Pater I Portable Generator, and who should skip it?
The Powerology Pater I Portable Generator suits renters, students, freelancers and small shop owners who need a router, lights, phones and one laptop alive through power cuts. It also fits field staff who charge cameras and tablets from a vehicle. Skip it if you want a TV, fan and decoder running for a whole evening, where the Powerology Pater II Portable Generator fits better. Skip it too for fridges or office printers, and look at the Powerology Pater III Portable Generator instead.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Output
- 236.25Wh battery capacity at 11.25V and 21Ah — the total energy stored, enough for a 10W router for up to about 23 hours.
- 300W rated output — the steady load it carries; add the watts on your device labels and keep the total below this figure.
- 600W peak output — short bursts for devices that pull extra power for a moment at switch-on, such as some desk fans.
- 230V, 50Hz AC outlet — the same voltage and frequency as mains supply, so household devices run as they do from the wall.
- Built-in protection against overcharging, overheating and short circuits — the unit cuts power before a fault can harm it or your devices.
Charging Ports and Compatibility
- USB-C output up to 100W — charges USB-C laptops, tablets and phones directly, so you can leave the bulky mains adapter at home.
- USB-A Quick Charge 3.0 output up to 18W — fast-charges compatible Android phones and powers USB fans, lamps and small speakers.
- Wireless charging pad up to 15W — place a phone that supports wireless charging on top and it charges with no cable at all.
- Car port output up to 120W — runs 12V accessories such as camping cool boxes, travel lights and in-car style chargers.
- Combined load limit of 300W across every port — you can run AC, USB and wireless together while the total stays within rating.
Recharging and Solar Input
- Solar input up to 100W — connect a compatible panel to refill the battery during the day, with no mains socket needed.
- MPPT charge controller — a solar controller that tracks the panel's best working point and keeps adjusting so the panel delivers as much as light allows.
- Wall recharging — plug it in between outages so it is full and waiting for the next time supply drops.
- Theoretical solar refill of about two and a half hours at a steady 100W — real panels take longer as sun angle and cloud change.
- Habit worth building — top it up after each outage, so a second blackout the same week does not catch you half-empty.
Runtime Planning
- Divide 236.25 by the total watts of your devices to get the hour ceiling; real runtime is lower because conversion uses energy.
- 10W Wi-Fi router alone — up to about 23 hours, long enough to cover a full night and the next working day.
- Router plus two 9W LED bulbs, 28W in total — about 8 hours, enough to light a sitting room through a long evening.
- 60W laptop on AC power — about 4 hours of work, or around three full battery refills on a typical business laptop.
- 15Wh phone battery — the stored energy equals about 15 phone charges in theory, closer to a dozen once losses are counted.
Build and Use
- Grey casing — a plain finish that sits quietly on a desk, shop counter or living room shelf without looking out of place.
- Multi-mode LED light — doubles as a room lamp during a blackout or a tent light on a camping trip.
- Silent battery operation — no engine, no fuel and no exhaust, so it runs indoors and next to sleeping children.
- Operating range of -10°C to 50°C and 10% to 90% humidity, non-condensing — keep it dry and out of rain.
- Powerology model code PWGC300GY — quote it when comparing listings, so you know you are looking at the same unit.
