Is it worth getting a portable power station?

Imagine you’re heading out camping with your family. You plan to stay at a site without access to electricity, so you bring along the ATZ Portable Power Station. With a 2048Wh capacity, here’s how it could power a typical setup:

 

Daily Device Usage Overview

As your family sets up camp, the ATZ Portable Power Station begins powering several key devices:

• Small Refrigerator: Keeps your food and drinks cold throughout the day and night.
• Laptop: Used by the kids for watching movies in the evening.
• Smartphones:Everyone’s phones need recharging after using them for photos and GPS.
• LED Light Bulb: Lights up your campsite for safety and convenience after sunset.
• Coffee Maker: Essential for starting your morning right with a couple of cups of coffee.

 

Calculating Total Daily Consumption:

• Small Refrigerator (50W):Runs 24 hours = 1200Wh
• Laptop (30W): Used for 2 hours in the evening = 60Wh
• Smartphones (5W each):4 smartphones charged for 2 hours each = 40Wh
• LED Light Bulb (10W): Used for 5 hours in the evening = 50Wh
• Coffee Maker (1000W): Used for 15 minutes per cup, 2 cups = 250Wh

 

Total Consumption:

1200Wh + 60Wh + 40Wh + 50Wh + 250Wh = 1600Wh

 

What else could be added with the remaining capacity?

With about 448Wh left, you could consider additional or longer usage of high-consumption devices:

• Portable Electric Grill: Have a barbecue dinner, using a 1500W grill for about 20 minutes would consume an additional 500Wh, which slightly exceeds your remaining capacity, so you might choose to use it more sparingly or opt for another day when less power has been consumed.
• Portable Fan: If it’s a hot night, running a 40W fan for the entire night (10 hours) would use up 400Wh, fitting comfortably within your available power.

 

Extended Capabilities with Additional Power:

Doubling the capacity to 4096Wh would mean not having to ration power as strictly. You could easily accommodate the electric grill for a longer barbecue, add a second or third fridge for beverages, or even run higher-powered appliances like a small air conditioner or heating units if the weather calls for it.

This example shows how the ATZ Portable Power Station can meet the varied needs of a family camping trip, providing flexibility and convenience even off the grid. With its substantial capacity and the option to expand, it ensures you can bring the comforts of home into the wilderness.
