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’ve been thinking of getting one but my main use case is powering the fiber modem and it will be living in the garage mostly. Are there any that handle decent temperature swings? I know batteries hate that sort of thing.
What if I put it in a fridge that is also powered by it?
I got a cheap UPS for this. They’re designed more for this purpose. My fiber modem takes FOREVER to reconnect so it’s moreso for little power dips in my case.
I was thinking of that but it gets both colder and hotter than most UPSes can handle in my garage.
Probably, but they’re likely cheaper per watt hour than the style in the photo.
