Previously popular and now even cheaper is this portable power station from VTOMAN. I've owned one of these for 5 months and it's been flawless. Especially when I've been out on road trips and needing a lot of juice to keep the deals flowing from the beach campsites. It's worth noting that the real capacity is 307.2Wh.

So weird I even half thought wow maybe I shoulda got a generator… that now see a heap of ozbargain posts and social media posts about power stations … I guess while I’m here anyone got recommendations for the more beefy ones like around 2400w?
Also what’s the go with pass through these days/ would this be a good solution for a UPS as well that just remains plugged in most of the time?
