Outdoor power supply is a multifunctional power supply based on lithium-ion batteries, which can output common power interfaces such as USB, USB-C, DC, AC, and car cigarette lighters. Covering various digital devices, household appliances, and emergency vehicles, providing backup power for outdoor travel and home emergencies. At the same time, solar energy storage can be used for a long time in areas outside the city power supply.

使用场景

When shooting outdoors, high-power fill lights cannot be connected to the power supply; To prevent insufficient battery power for cameras, monitors, and microphones, it is necessary to carry many different types of backup batteries with you.

Long distance self driving tour

For short distance self driving trips, camping, and camping in the wilderness, power the kitchen utensils and appliances when cooking dishes with the ingredients you bring. When there is a sudden power outage at home, it serves as an emergency power source to ensure temporary electricity use. At critical moments, as an emergency power source for the car, replenish the battery.

Key points of purchase

Capacity! Capacity! Capacity! This is a very important point! The larger the battery capacity of an outdoor power source, the longer it can continuously provide output power. Many outdoor power sources only emphasize how much power they have, which makes it easy for people to overlook their capacity. If the capacity is not large enough and can only supply power for a short period of time, it is not very meaningful. The battery is the core of these power supply devices. Before purchasing, the first thing to look at is its battery capacity, which determines how long it can maintain power output and provide power range. Considering that outdoor power sources can be placed in the trunk of a car and volume does not need to be prioritized, it is advisable to choose one with a capacity of over 100000mAh and milliamperes, regardless of size.

How to choose the capacity of outdoor power supply?

A 500W to 600W outdoor power supply with a battery capacity of approximately 500Wh to 600Wh, approximately 150000 milliamperes, can power 100W devices for approximately 4-5 hours, 300W devices such as rice cookers for approximately 1.7 hours, and mobile phones can charge more than 30 times.

A 1000W-1200W outdoor power supply with a battery capacity of about 1000Wh, approximately 280000 milliamperes, can power 100W devices for about 7-8 hours, 300W devices for about 2-3 hours, and mobile phones can be charged more than 60 times;

A 1500-2200W outdoor power supply with a battery capacity of around 2000Wh, approximately 550000mAh, can power 100W devices for about 15 hours, 300W devices for about 5-6 hours, and mobile phones can be charged for 100-150 times;

功率

The power of outdoor power sources determines what kind of equipment can be used. For example, if you want to cook outdoors and use electric rice cookers or induction cookers, you need a relatively high power, otherwise it will cause the power source to trigger self-protection and unable to supply power normally.

Volume and weight

Volume and weight are mainly considered in terms of portability and space occupation. It is okay to use it when traveling in a car, but if you want to do an outdoor shooting and power digital devices, it may be a bit troublesome to bring a large and heavy outdoor power supply.

充电方式

In terms of charging methods, the more the better. For example, when traveling outdoors, there is not often the opportunity for mains charging, and the charging time is not short. Therefore, it can be more convenient to use in car charging, and even use solar panels to charge. It can be placed on the roof to absorb solar energy and can be fully charged in a few hours, which is convenient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly.

Does it support Type-C, wireless charging, etc

Many digital devices nowadays use Type-C cables, and even wireless charging. Therefore, outdoor power supplies that support these types of devices will be more convenient to use. Some product models do not support this, so you can be cautious when choosing and see if there is a need for this.

Is there an LED light available

LED lights actually have most outdoor power sources, mainly used for outdoor lighting, power outage emergency, and distress. When choosing, you can also pay attention to it.

Pitfalls to pay attention to when making a purchase

The safety hazards of charging mainly include battery quality and protection functions. If the power quality is poor, it is easy to catch fire or even explode. Please choose legitimate products from legitimate channels and stay away from low-priced and low-quality products. The issue of cost-effectiveness is that some large brand advertisements have high investment and operating costs, resulting in high prices and low energy consumption of the products, costing several thousand yuan. However, the battery and power are not enough, and the brand can choose the central brand, which has a relatively high cost-effectiveness. Large size, not easy to carry.

Some brands have launched high-frequency resonance technology, which can effectively reduce volume by 30% -50%. The shell is fragile and uses engineering plastic, which is prone to collision, falling, and breakage. Many miscellaneous brands and some large brands also have this problem. Due to high heat generation and low inverter efficiency, the use of engineering plastic casing results in poor heat dissipation. A large number of cooling holes have to be opened to increase fan heat dissipation, causing loud noise and dust and water vapor erosion of the internal circuits of the product, leading to safety hazards and reduced product lifespan.

False labeling or chaotic combination of parameters, some products have false labeling of batteries, which is more common in low-priced and low-quality products. There are also some products that have launched high-power but very small capacity products to attract attention, to be sold as high-end products, reduce batteries, and lower costs.
