This portable power station is a storm weather essential — and you can keep your tech charged during a blackout for $100 less ahead of Prime Day
A helpful investment to make if you're concerned about them is a portable power station.Earlier this year, I tried one out for myself during a couple of camping trips. The LiFePo4 battery lasts up to 10 years and the 2x USB-C and 1x USB-A ports will fast charge your portable electronics without the need for an adaptor. Weighing in at 39.5lbs it includes a carry handle for easy transport and there's even a built-in light for when the campfire isn't getting the job done.
