The world is seeing how Europe countries are going through the winter. Needless to say, winter in 2022 can not be that rosier. On the outside is the announcement from Russia, which refused to offer natural gas for heating to Europe; on the inside is the surging heating fees caused by the shortage and inflation. Fortune estimates that “In 2023, the typical European household may spend as much as 500 euros monthly on energy bills, according to Goldman Sachs. This would represent a more than threefold increase over 2021 costs when average energy bills came in at 160 euros.”
However, life is going on. How about storing the energy when possible and using it in need? Generally speaking, it is plausible, especially when the portable power station market is surging. So if you are interested in how mobile power stations remedy the tough winter, stay tuned.
Basic Information
So what is a portable power station? You can regard it as a huge power bank, a charge Pal. But more concisely, it is a rechargeable battery-powered generator with a lithium-ion battery with an AC outlet, DC port, and USB charging.
- Working principle
Mobile or portable power stations are composed of a controller, battery pack, inverter, and BMS system. The DC can be transformed into AC through the inverter, which can charge your electronic devices later.
- Common applications
Reliable mobile power stations are lightweight, efficient, and durable and can provide stable power for common electronic devices like phones, laptops, space heaters, and cookers. They are commonly used for camping, outdoor work, and, most importantly, responding to emergencies like a sudden blackout.
- How to Charge the Portable Power Station
Traditionally, there are three ways to charge mobile power stations.
- Regular power outlet: The most common and efficient way, and it takes about 8 hrs to charge the large and versatile power banks fully. But it does do harm to your pocket.
- Car-carrying charger: The cigarette socket lighter in the vehicle enables the station to be charged when, for example, the whole family is out for a trip. The station can be charged once getting into the vehicle and off for electrifying camping. The time for feeding the station in this way is about 8.5 hours.
- Solar panel: The last charging way is the most cost-effective. Some mobile power stations can work with solar panels, which can support photovoltaic (PV) charging. Although it takes the longest time to charge, about 9 hrs, it takes little in terms of money and effort, just connect the mobile power stations with the solar panels and let it bathe in the sunlight—boom, easy peasy.
You might be interested in mobile power stations that allow solar charging. Then the LIPOWER mobile power stations can meet your demands.
Mobile Power Stations for Recommendation — from LIPOWER
From battery manufacturer to portable power stations manufacturer, LIPOWER has kept developing itself in this industry. Our products have received positive market responses.
Those 1000W mobile power stations with the APOLLE100 portable power panel can gain power from the sunlight for greener and more cost-effective use. The station can power 6 devices at the same time, with 3 AC outlets and 3 USB-A ports. It is estimated that the G1000/G100W can power a refrigerator of 60W for 15hrs; a projector of 40W for about a day. It takes about 5-7 hrs to fully charge the 1000W LIPOWER portable power stations under the sun.
G1600L LIPOWER portable power station is one of the most powerful batteries charging solutions LIPOWER can offer. It boasts a 1460Wh capacity and a 2000W inverter, enabling a power series of high-power devices.
Powered by Electric Vehicle-grade LiFePO4 battery packs, the mobile power stations come with a longer lifespan and better discharge and charge efficiency than Lithium Ion. Moreover, the built-in cooling system for dissipating heat ensures its strong security, and the unique design muffles its noise when working.
It is also a 2000W power station that has an advanced design and installation with G1600L. Their difference lies in their capacity. G1600L houses 65Ah 1456Wh of capacity, while the G-2000W 100Ah 2220Wh, can power the same device for a longer time.
