I’m Alex. I got into portable power stations after a 3-day grid outage during a winter storm left my family without heat or refrigeration. That experience cost us hundreds of dollars in spoiled food and a hotel stay we couldn’t really afford.
Since then I’ve spent way too much time researching, buying, and testing portable power stations and solar generators. This site is where I share what I’ve learned so you can skip the mistakes I made.
I focus on practical testing. How long does a unit actually run your fridge? Can a solar panel keep up on a cloudy day? What does the warranty actually cover when something fails? Those are the questions I try to answer here.
I’m not sponsored by any brand. When I recommend a product, it’s because I’d buy it with my own money. Some links on this site are affiliate links, which means I earn a small commission if you purchase through them. This costs you nothing extra and helps keep the site running.
If you have questions or want me to cover a specific product, leave a comment on any post.
