Cheapest Mobile Power Station

[L-Dog]

Anyone tried one of these ? Was wondering if it would be able to run my TV and DSTV for around 2 hours during load shedding ?

150w? I'd rather spend the money on a small generator.

Would if I could but currently renting a flat, moving out end of the year and I want to get a proper solar system then so don't want to overpay but also not looking to buy a 10k inverter and trolley system.

You should check your power requirements, 150W might not be enough for just your TV, older DSTV decoders can also use over 100W.

The total capacity also seems to be at most 225Wh, so it's definitely not suitable for your needs.

Yeah will double check but I assume power consumption will be 70w - 100w although some website have it at 166 (although this is max)


Based on 230.4Wh(Max.) capacity I should get 2-3 hours If I only use the TV and stream / use a usb.

Stage 6 power cuts can increase the length of load-shedding bouts, meaning small UPSes won’t cut it anymore.
