Purchasing the best portable power stations will help you keep your appliances and devices charged in any situation. Always stay prepared!

Few power stations can compete with the Yeti 3000X as the best portable power station for home. While other models offer more AC outlets, they won’t run the connected equipment for anywhere near the same length of time. The Yeti 3000X could run a full-size refrigerator for 55 hours, or a laptop for over 60 hours. It can accommodate power-hungry power tools as well.

Those considering RV use will be interested to know that a kit is available to allow recharging via the vehicle’s alternator while driving. A reflection of the tremendous capacity is the optional home integration kit which can hook the Yeti up directly to the breaker panel. It won’t power everything simultaneously, but it will keep your lights and TV running, and stop the freezer thawing.

An LED on the unit provides useful consumption and charging detail that can also be monitored by remote app. At 78 pounds calling it portable is something of a stretch, but it does have wheels giving it mobility when necessary. Recharging the Yeti 3000X with the supplied 230W unit takes around 14 hours. A fast 600W charger is available at extra cost, as are a 12V car charger or solar array.

The number of watts available tells you the power available from the unit. There are often two figures. 1,000W/500W for example. The first is the peak watts which takes into account the fact that all electric motors surge at start up. The second figure is the amount during normal running. Additionally, the number of watt hours gives an indication of how long the portable power station will run before it needs recharging.

Although all electrical devices have a watt rating, it can be difficult to work out which devices can run together. The best portable power station makers will provide estimates such as how many times a device will recharge a phone, how long it will power a laptop, or run a mini-fridge for example.When it comes to power stations, portability is a relative term. Models aimed at camping use can be as light as 2 or 3 pounds. At the other end of the scale they can reach 80 pounds.
