How come there aren't any battery operated generators?

People who live in apartment buildings can't have generators because they need to be outside. I wish someone would come up with a battery operated generator for indoor use. It could even save lives.

ETA: It seems that I wasn't clear enough in my post. I'm talking about battery powered generator too replace gas-powered ones

First of all... "too" ain't in the contextual context of a subject you have no clue thereof.  Second, as much as your democrat party
tells you, there is no free lunch, dinner, breakfast or happiness.

They're called UPSs, though they usually have minutes or a few hours of capacity. (https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=118838.0) Choices have consequences, including the choice of an apartment over a single-family home.

The DUmmie is unclear on what batteries or generators actually do.

Gilligan and the professor overcame this problem of gas powered generators decades ago.

Don't forget the bamboo bike, vine drive chain and coconut cream pies for peddling fuel!

When managed properly, the byproducts (coconut, banana juice and distilled spirits) result in a daiquiri.

I am SOOOO there!
