Talk about your own personal experience. As a person who often drives around by himself and travels long distances, I have learned about several brands. Today I will briefly tell you how to choose a suitable portable power station:
1. Pay attention to your electrical equipment
First of all, you must pay attention to the electrical equipment you often use when you go out. If it is only mobile phones, pads, computers, cameras, and car equipment, it is recommended that you only need to buy the 500W equipment. The 500W one is only 5.7kg, which is very small and easy to carry, and the power is enough for you to use these devices. If you spend a long time outdoors, and you will inevitably use some cooking utensils such as kettles and rice cookers, it is recommended to buy the 1000W portable power station, which has higher power and longer battery life for high-power appliances. Of course, if you need to use an oxygen generator for self-driving in Tibet, it is also recommended to buy a 1000W one.
2. Battery life
When purchasing a portable power station, don't just look at the W number, which refers to the power that can be driven. The battery life depends on the WH number, the larger the WH number, the longer the battery life. The 500W has a capacity of 515WH, the 1000W has a capacity of 1166WH, and the battery life is quite sufficient.
3. Charging method
The portable power station has 4 charging methods: solar panel charging, mains charging, car charging, and generator charging. If you seldom stay in a hotel during your self-driving journey, and you are outdoors for a long time, it is recommended to buy a solar panel for charging, which will be much more convenient; if you often live in a hotel, charging with mains electricity is completely enough.
In fact, the portable power station has a wide range of uses. It is also very comfortable to use the portable power station to deal with emergencies when there is a power outage at home, or to use the portable power station to enjoy the nature when camping around the weekend.
