Generators and automatic start controllers

Hey there peeps, I have a question for anyone who knows about generators and electrical.

I'm planning to build a (large) aeroponics setup, but if I do, I want a backup generator to keep things running in case the power ever goes out for a extended period of time. The thing is, I am not trying to spend several thousand on a residential stand-alone backup generator.

I am trying to figure out if there is a way to automatically turn on a standard portable generator when the power goes out. I cam across this automatic generator start controller, and was wondering if it would work

---> Magnum Energy Auto Gen Start

KNOWLEDGABLE answers only, please. Electrical is not my specialty! thanks!
