khevolution Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 I can see this be a good albeit expensive alternative to people in the outdoor racing scene who currently run noisy generators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Is there a price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross9999992 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Yes a very high one but it depends on the internal battery size 😂 There are many “portable power stations” available ranging from a leisure battery and a dc to ac inverter up to the very very expensive. Note - these aren’t new 👍🏻 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 So the Jackery gang has finally made it into rc YouTube is full of these can’t see how a company can make any money with the amount they give away, oh that’s right they charge a ludicrous amount to those that buy them 😂😂 so if that has 290 watt hours and can output at 400w that means at full beans you get less than an hours use ? Is that right ? or if my 12v fridge draws 70w an hour it will only get about 2 and a half hours of use from this as you have to leave a percentage of charge in it ?

Tug Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 These quite often work out at 100 quid per 100 watt hours, so the kilowatt version is about a grand, and probably quite heavy. They have their uses, but at a cost, that and the fact you'll need to recharge it from either a mains socket or run your car engine. I had a video sent to me a few months back that showed an electric mini digger, it only ran for two hours, then took eight to recharge it. Trouble is, the building site had no mains power, so they were running a diesel genny overnight! You couldn't make it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRo Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I use one of these for camping (lights, fridge, phone charging etc ) and I love it - It lives in the car so it gets topped up as we go. I'm new to RC but was hoping I'd be able to make some use of it for charging in the field... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
