This past weekend, EV Experience by EVCO helped power all six inflatable attractions at 2025 Blackburn Fun Fair using clean electricity, provided by 2 Jim Keay Ford F-150 Lightnings and a Myers Orleans GMC Sierra EV!
The onboard inverter technology worked flawlessly over the three-day event, drawing approximately 4 kW an hour from each truck, which are outfitted with several 120v outlets and one 240v outlet.
EVCO volunteers received overwhelmingly positive feedback from the Fun Fair Chair, the inflatables rental company, and most importantly, the attendees! The lack of sound and smell of a generator was definitely noticeable. Also, given the wildfire smoke covering Ottawa most of the weekend, the reduction of further pollutants was a benefit for all.
As always, a HUGE thank you to our volunteers!
