Portable Power Stations

See my graph from last night in post above. Playing a next gen game I normally get around 450W (TV + Console Combined)

I think mine would be closer to 150w.

Oldish TV (not smart) 40" + Mi box uses around 80w. Google says Xbox one s draws around 62w during active game play.

Not next gen gaming tho. The point is, its really depends on what he has...

Well mine
R1000 - 600W inverter
R3300 - 44AH battery
R300 - Toolbox
R250 - Solar PWM
R1000 - Sundry Wire Fuse and switches

Roughly works out to around R5900 vs a similar specked Delta River pro for R10 000

It will be SA rated with SA plugs instead of US 110V
Plus I like "building" things just for fun anyway.

Would this charge to max in under an hour? That's one of the main perks of Ecoflow's products.

at it's rated 6a charge... no.

if you wanna charge within 1 hour you looking for 44A charge on a 44AH LFP rated at 1c be it solar or a separate charger.

Guess the main thing is to power up the NUC (actually it's an SFF), and the TV.

You will power those things for like an hour max unless you get one of the newer LED TV's. My Hisense 32" draws 28w in eco mode.

Hi everyone,

been looking at all those portable power stations...
this one seems interesting and not badly priced:

Gizzu 155Wh Portable Power Station​

and been looking at a few others, but sometimes it's not very clear if they act as a UPS or not.

I need something to power up a small NUC computer i am using as a server (so i need a UPS), the NUC
is averaging 0.28 Kwh and peaked at 0.4.

also power my TV, and a lamp.

Bonus: power up my HP micro GEN 8 server, and maybe my xbox.

what should i be looking at?

Anyone here got a Genki unit and tested the UPS feature?
 
the EcoFlow RIVER Max seems like an interesting option....but that 30ms UPS delay got me a little confused.
so firstly i like the fact that i can have it connected all the time, and battery will only be used during a power outage....but back to the 30 ms....i tired to look at the specs for the gen8/and the few small factor PCS i will need it to power and couldn't find the "hold time" info.

Generally speaking...any idea how long is the hold time for an average PC and an average small factor PC?
