Bluetooth-enabled portable generator

Briggs & Stratton Corporation is excited to bring its first Bluetooth-enabled portable generator to the market for consumers. The Briggs & Stratton 8,000 Watt Elite Series Portable Generator with StatStation Wireless Bluetooth makes it easy and convenient for homeowners to monitor the generator from the convenience of any smart device.

“The integration of Bluetooth technology was the result of customer research that told us consumers become frustrated by not knowing remaining fuel levels or the remaining capacity of a portable generator,” said Dan Roche, director of marketing for Briggs & Stratton portable power and cleaning systems. “StatStation Wireless featuring Bluetooth allows users to check the performance of the generator without having to brave the elements.”

StatStation Wireless with Bluetooth empowers owners by providing them visibility to:

  • Fuel gauge and run time left before needing to refuel
  • Percent of available watts being consumed
  • Maintenance reminders (spark plug, oil, air filter)
  • Total hours on generator (hour meter)
  • Dealer locator

While portable generators can provide users with flexibility and comfort, people should use portable generators appropriately at all times in order to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
