How will a power station do if I’m running a led light bulb and a portable heater?
Outstanding work. What a great video .
Love the conversions and your perspective, thank you!
I live in Arizona solar panels blew my mind… doing more research.
Great, agreed not a generator, a battery, although with solar panels, almost…. The Jackery 2000 with a few panels can pretty much power a low requirement cottage, looking at one. I believe the new ones are 1000 charges, I have an iPad from 2017 that is still 70% full capacity, cheers🎉
LOL _ Jack-ery and W‑anker. Who comes up with these names???
i wanna run a pc in 10h what battery shuld i have i can charge it every day at work
Buy the right one, not the expensive one. Come on. I’m an outdoor power enthusiast。
nice
Which one do you recommend for a portable heater while camping?
Wow, that Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series sounds amazing! It’s great to see a product like this that offers such a massive capacity and fast recharging capabilities. Plus, the fact that it’s waterproof and has comprehensive protections is a definite bonus for outdoor enthusiasts like us. Thanks for sharing this recommendation!
Honestly they’re a godsend where if you’re someone who lives say out in the woods or doing small odd jobs then having a universal power station really helps, especially if say you’ve got a path that’s blocked or a bit of hedge that needs cutting but lack the ability to use or maintain say a petrol power tool or you don’t want to carry tons of fuel in your car, then these are fantastic especially when paired with say cheaper corded power tools
Very informative 👏 great job
Will the Jackery power a 1500 watt space heater?
How much?
Explained Great! Thank you!
Seem massively underpowered, but then i did have power station in my head 😜
ADVICE please. I could really use some advice on what portable station to buy.
My budget is around $500.00. I live in a condo and would like to power a TV, my computer, Wi-Fi, a light, husbands Cpap machine. Small appliance for 10 minutes. Fast charging. Definitely will add solar panel later on. It’s winter here not a lot of sun.
After researching, I feel LifeP04 would be better option for longer lasting cycles. I’m down to three different brands but I’m open to any recommendations! It’s Black Friday sales!
Eco flow river 2 Bluetti AC70, Oupes 1200. I had a Jackery in but they are sold out of the 700w.
Can anyone tell me the best bang for my buck? I’m thinking at least 1000w even though I will only run out at half capacity. Might be good to have the extra in case power is down longer.
The power company does forced power outages. Last one was 2 1/2 days. We also get a lot of ice and people crashing to the power poles on our steep road.
That 500 charges isn’t the lifetime though us it?
I understood ut to be the number of full charges before the battery drops to 80% of its rated capacity.
Another 500 charges will drop it to 64% (80% of 80%) and so on.
You answer my question very well even before I ask the question. Thank you Sir
its easy to connect something like a TV to the power station bcos those are connected directly to the box but how do I do the connection so I can power my light bulbs
Can I use them to automatically turn on when lights go out in my house?
How much & where I can buy?
I like how this guy just seems to guess half of the time with his specs. Amazing showing of laziness.
Great Video !!!!
Which one is best to run a small heater inside a minivan during winter at ‑15c
Very informative and straightforward common sense views. I learned a lot. Thank you!
Neither one can run a refrigerator for a day. Worthless for emergencies.
Mmm yes, working on my MK I power armor thank you for this input
Great review and information! Thanks for sharing!
