In this episode of DIY or Buy we will be having a closer look at portable power stations. Those are great for all kinds of outdoor camping or if your garage is not connected to the electrical grid,.....like mine. In the video I will show you how a commercial power station works and how we can create a DIY version which is actually a bit cheaper and can output way more power. Let's get started!

Great video! I did exactly this last year only, instead of charging from a wall outlet, I mounted a 100W Renogy solar panel to the top of the enclosure and included a Victron charge controller to keep the batteries charged. My setup was comparable to a Goal Zero model that costs several hundred dollars more and doesn't even include the solar panel.

Nice build. I did the same thing without an actual enclosure. I used a 1/2 inch wide plastic cutting board and mounted the inverter on one side and the charge controller and DC connectors on the other side. Its relatively light and portable. The battery is separate and must be connected to use. It is pretty much a small solar power system that can easily be transported in the back seat of your car.

Great job! I vote for home built. I finished my battery compression box the day you posted this. The unit is up and running daily. It has 560 amp hour EVE cells, 3000/6000 surge inverter, 250 amp BMS, 30 amp MPPT, 75 amp on board lithium charger. It was built to run a big refrigerator and 2 chest freezers on 120 VAC power. We lose power more often in Northern California these days. Last year it was only out for 47 hours in August here, but much longer elsewhere due to wildfires and terrible winds. Its in a steel tubing cage on caster wheels but at 51 kilos, 130 pounds, its not portable. The 410 watt panel sits temporarily on the roof on the foam they shipped the cells in.

@stevetobias4890 2 роки тому
Excellent video and great finished product. The only problem I can foresee is the lack of ventilation for cooling. I understand that you have a lot of space inside but a couple of fans on the side to allow a constant air flow would do wonders. Also you could add a solar controller with MP4 connections to easily connect solar panels when you're on a long camping trip. Overall I really like it because I prefer units built to suit your specific needs rather than buying a generic product.

I have a couple of small 'power stations' here, inexpensive and LiFePo4 based. Pretty decent. But, as you noted, you have to take their idea of a suitable 'mix' of features, outputs and capacities, and they're rarely in accord with your wants. I also have my house critical systems (except refer/freezer currently) on a battery-backed setup using surplus scooter Li-Ion 36V packs. Now, the surplus quality Li-Ion and lately, LiFePo4 packs out there make a DIY solution way more compelling. You can find all the needed components easily and cheaply to assemble your backup system, or a power station like yours (love the wheels!) with capacity galore, all the inverter and/or DC power you want and the charging options to match. Just several hours to plan, assemble and build. Because there are so many great deals on 36V packs, I was able to find a couple surplus quality UPSes that work great, and under my keyboard right now is a 3000W sine 36V inverter, that'll handle the refer/freezer and microwave loads. And it was easy to use those DC-DC "lab" style power modules to arrange 42V/30A charging. (Using 42V Cisco router P/S as source. Think were 2 for $60? Soo cheap and way quality.) (But see my channel for how not to mount LiPo batteries. Very nasty when poked!) Anyway, if you factor in quality recycled cells out there, (And UPSes! Great quality inverters, low speed chargers and backup. Real cheap Ebay, usually shipped without the failed batteries, so cheaper/safer shipping, and very much life left! I paid about $70 for my 500VA and $90 for my 1000VA shipped. I don't even notice the power drops anymore, except the mini-split stops. Nice.) you can build a beast on a budget! Thanks! Stu (Too much blabbing. Sorry! Love your stuff, and it's great when DIY beats BUY! Stu)

The sunken cost fallacy is when you have invested too much into something and are reluctant to admit it was a waste of money. If you were only motivated by the amount of stored energy, you could have almost bought two and got twice the energy for what you put into it. But the the experience you gained and the public good of education generated for your audience (who cannot afford to buy foot long batteries) is priceless. This one could have gone either DIY or buy. It depends on whether having extra power was your only goal. Loved the video. Power independence is a favorite topic.

I think you identified the main problem with power stations you buy - they try to do everything and they cost a lot as a result. In reality, as you have shown, everybody's needs are different - You want USB and mains output and don't need 12v. I need 12v and USB but I don't need mains. I've just finished building my own power station which does what I need and no more. Cost me £120 - with the greatest savings being not needing the inverter and the cabling and larger batteries that go with it. DIY is definitely the best option.
@anthonyvolkman2338 2 роки тому
Very well done, for the full 1kw of continuos power I would have used a set OFC 2 gauge wire, it is still extremely flexible and soft bit would allow for proper transfer. 85 amps continuos through 8 gauge seems a bit weak. That is my opinion however and I build for the extreme as well.

Actually for camping or Bushcraft activity we just need Battery Bank that can deliver; 1. USB charging port 5V and Quick Charging, 2. DC port for 12V or 18V, 3. COB LED for lighting. If we need power tools for drilling or grinding, cutting saw etc, make sure take 12V or 18V cordless power tools or make its corded with DC from our Battery Bank. This settings always enough to camping or bushcraft activity. Simple, elegant, cheap, durable, and ready for all occasions even for survival. Greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩

Tip for soldering bucket ring terminals: hold with vice grips or vice, heat with torch, fill 1/2 way maybe 3/4 max with solder while still heating, dunk wire in solder, hold 'til solid. Perfect solid connection, though do remember the solder can, as always, wick up the wire thus strain relief is always a good idea.
@forbiddenera 2 роки тому
Tip for soldering wires together straight: put wires together end on end, turn them about 45 degrees from each other which will allow you to wrap them around each other, creating a better mechanical connection before soldering as well as a perfect clean joint that you don't have to hold while soldering. Solder then, be happy. Called a western union/lineman splice.

Maybe having a 1000W AC output for camping is quite an overkill, sarcastic if you will. The project looks pretty nice but I'd stick with the buy version, doing some work on the diy version like painting or protecting the wood from rain would be good great video man

That thing looks quite beautiful but I would consider adding a bit of strength to the housing .Even a kick could easily break that 3mm plywood

Hey @GreatScott! love your videos. Just wanted to know more about the device you are using to measure current and voltage at timestamp 3:17. Is there any video on it?
