What can you operate on an average 500 watt portable power station?
With a 500 watt portable power station, you can charge small electronics like smartphones and larger items such as a television or mini refrigerator. The average 500wh power station would power a Drone (60w) about 7 times, recharge a laptop 12 times, and recharge smartphones about 42 times.
When looking for a portable power station, these are the most desirable features:

3. Able to perform pass through charging, meaning you can charge the unit and use the unit at the same time.
4. Has a regulated 12V output, for charging of some items like phones, tablets, etc it is not a big deal, however some appliances like
a refrigerator might not work without a regulated 12v output.
