Since I bought mine for about 230 bucks Canadian, it’s been my main device charger and it can serve as a UPS.

I decided to buy it after we had a bunch of power outages within a short time span.

It has a 288Wh battery, with an inverter that can deliver 600 Watts of power.

It’s mainly used to keep my headphones, Google Pixel and iPad charged up however it can run my PC for a solid 2-3 hours before running out of power.

What do you think about power stations?

    I have been curious about them combined with solar panels but every product I have seen so far doesn’t seem to be overly practical, with a pay back period significantly longer than the warranty period even if you get perfect solar.

    For off grid power, sure totally understand that. I already use USB powerbanks for when away from mains power and if I needed longer durations then adding a solar panel makes perfect sense at some point rather than just a larger battery. But for home? I can’t really see the point currently until prices drop, capacities increase or warranties extend.
