Run Your Saws and Chargers Without the Engine
A carpenter’s ute idling to run a drop saw and charge batteries burns a litre of fuel an hour and annoys every neighbour on the street. Zeliox delivers silent 240V from battery power that charges while driving between jobs, so you arrive with a full charge and get straight to work.
Saws Need Surge Power. Generators Waste Fuel.
Circular saws and planers draw high current on start-up. Undersized generators stall or trip. Oversized generators burn fuel all day for intermittent use. Meanwhile, battery chargers, site radios, and lighting add steady load that keeps the engine running even when nobody is cutting.

- Idle Fuel
- 1.7 L/hr all day
- Generator Noise
- Restricted work hours

- Steady background load
- Residential Sites
- Noise-sensitive neighbours
Clean 240V That Handles the Surge
Zeliox delivers pure sine wave 240V output that handles tool start-up surge without tripping, then settles into efficient steady-state delivery for chargers, lighting, and site equipment. The system charges while driving between jobs and tops up from solar during the day.
- Pure Sine Wave: Clean power for tools
- Surge Handling: Saw and planer start-up
- Drive Charging: Alternator input
- Solar Ready: MPPT for site top-up
- Silent Output: 0 dB
- Install Time: About 2 hours
Power that cuts as hard as you do.
The Zeliox Advantage
Carpenters and builders run power-hungry tools in bursts — a drop saw cutting studs, a planer running edges, multiple battery chargers cycling all day. The combined draw on start-up can trip a small generator, and running a big one for intermittent use wastes fuel and invites noise complaints on residential builds.
Zeliox handles start-up surge from saws and planers with pure sine wave 240V output, while silently charging tool batteries and running site radios and lighting in the background. The system charges from the alternator on the drive to the site and can top up from solar panels during the day, keeping the ute locked and quiet while the crew works.
