Spark Station · West Virginia
Portable power anywhere
The Mobile Power Plant is an industrial battery that works like a generator, small enough to ride in the back of any truck, simple enough for anyone to run. Weld, cut and run tools on the pad, in the shop, underground or wherever power is hard to get, with no fuel and no fumes.

The Mobile Power Plant
A generator's muscle. None of the fumes.
2,304Wh of industrial battery in a 52.5 lb steel-framed case. 3,600W continuous, 20,000W peak, enough to strike an arc, run a compressor or light up a tunnel, with nothing to fuel and nothing to vent. It rides in the back of any truck, no trailer, no ramp, no crew.
- 120V / 30A + 20A AC
- Link up to 3 units
- IP54 sealed
- 12 BMS protections
$3,750 USD
Let’s talk wattsWhy it beats a generator
Built for oil & gas, trades and heavy industry
Zero emissions
No exhaust, no CO. Built for confined spaces and underground work where a generator can't run.
Zero noise
Silent operation for night work, occupied sites and anywhere you need to hear the crew.
Welder-grade surge
20,000W peak handles welding machines and air compressors.
12 safety protections
Battery management guards against overload, short circuit, heat, cold and more.
Fast recharge
90% in 1.8 hours, full in 2.3. Back to work by the next shift.
Link three units
Group up to 3 units for 6,912Wh of capacity.
Put to the test
Takes a beating. Keeps powering.
Watch the Mobile Power Plant face drops, impacts and blast tests, then get back to work.
Destructive test footage. Do not attempt to replicate. Not an explosion-proof certification; do not use damaged equipment.
What it runs
The tools you already own
Typical running and start-up draw for common job-site tools, and how long one unit keeps each one going non-stop.
| Tool | Running | Start-up surge | Non-stop runtime | Runs it? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LED work lights (x4) | 200 W | 200 W | 9.8 hrs | Yes |
| Cordless tool battery chargers | 150 W | 150 W | 13 hrs | Yes |
| 4½" angle grinder | 900 W | 2,700 W | 2.2 hrs | Yes |
| Hammer drill | 1,000 W | 3,000 W | 2.0 hrs | Yes |
| 7¼" circular saw | 1,400 W | 4,200 W | 1.4 hrs | Yes |
| Submersible water pump | 1,000 W | 3,500 W | 2.0 hrs | Yes |
| Air compressor (2 HP) | 1,800 W | 6,000 W | 1.1 hrs | Yes |
| Inverter stick welder (140 A) | 3,000 W | 4,500 W | 0.7 hrs | Yes |
Typical figures for planning only. Check your tool's rating plate. Most hand tools run in bursts, so a real working day lasts much longer than the non-stop figure.
Side by side
Spark Station vs. petrol generator
Spark Station
Petrol generator, 2.8 kW
Power
3,600 W continuous · 20,000 W peak
Power
2.8 kW rated, 3 kW peak
Starting tools
High peak output for brief start-up demands. Check the tool and surge duration.
Starting tools
Peak is only 3 kW. A tool whose start-up surge exceeds 3 kW can stall, trip or fail to start.
Exhaust
No combustion fumes. Indoor or underground use needs site approval.
Exhaust
Petrol engine. Fuel leakage, fire and emission risk (CO and NOx). Never run indoors or in enclosed spaces.
Noise
No engine noise; cooling fans may run.
Noise
57 dB while running.
Getting to the job
52.5 lb (23.8 kg). Fits a truck bed; optional straps or trolley.
Getting to the job
130.7 lb (59.28 kg). Petrol has to be transported too.
Start-up
Plug in and go. No start-up routine.
Start-up
Start-up required before it delivers power.
Keeping it running
2,304 Wh per unit. Recharge or link extra units when energy runs low.
Keeping it running
A good fit for prolonged loads outdoors, with safe refuelling stops.
Maintenance
None. No engine, no oil, no fuel system to service.
Maintenance
Regular engine maintenance required.
Protection rating
IP54 dust and water protection.
Protection rating
IP23.
A generator can run a tool, but struggle to start it.
An illustrative compressor might run at 1,800 W but need 6,000 W to start. A generator with a 3 kW peak can struggle, even though 2.8 kW of running output would keep it going once started. Compare the peak rating, not just the running watts.
Generator figures are based on a 2.8 kW class petrol inverter generator, shown: Honda EU3000is. Spark Station's 20,000 W peak is brief, not continuous output; starting compatibility also depends on surge duration and the equipment.
Why 20,000 W peak matters
Running a tool is one thing. Starting it is another.
Motors can briefly draw much more power when they start. See how start-up surges differ from continuous power, and why both ratings matter.

Could Spark Station power your equipment?
One unit may not provide enough stored energy for the selected running time. Equipment start-up demands and real-world losses still need checking.
For planning only. Not a verified equipment compatibility or runtime guarantee.
