There''s nothing better than getting out of the big smoke and into nature, but we can''t always be completely without electricity for long periods of time. Be it phones, portable fridges, cameras, LED lights or even your sound system, there are plenty of reasons why you need to plug in – even in remote areas.
Thankfully there is an option for campers, workers and outdoor lovers who want to be well off the beaten track, but not without home comforts. They''re called power stations. These power stations can be charged through a mains connection at home before you leave on your trip, via your car battery on the way or through portable solar panels in situ.
I''ve been using them for years, and have been sent power stations from many manufacturers to test and experience in that time. What is the best power station in Australia? Well, it depends on your needs. Below, you''ll find a breakdown of the power stations I think you should be considering and why.
I have personally experienced or owned almost all of the power stations in this list, comparing them during my outdoor adventures. In addition to my impressions, I''ve also looked at the average customer ratings at established ecommerce sites like Amazon and eBay (as of the end of 2023), user reviews on sale portals like Snowys, Anaconda, Tentworld and BCF, and the opinions of other professional reviewers and tradies.
Read more detail on our methodology below.
You can take your pick from the iTechworld range of power stations in truth. Built right here in Australia, this family-run business out of Perth makes a quality, premium power station across four sizes. There''s the 300, 500, 1300 and 2000, with the number representing the max watt output the device can handle..
In my experiences using iTechworld power stations, they tend to punch above their weight, too. Delivering an efficiency, both with input and output, that makes the most of every one of its watt hours. They are relatively lighter, too, than their competitors.
The best in the range is the 1997 watt-hour, PS2000. This beast will get you through most of your troubles, especially anything like a camping trip off-grid for a few days. It doesn''t have my preferred flat top, but the robust handles and straight-edged chassis do make it easy to carry and pack.
Notable features include 2 x 100W USB-C ports, a fantastic 3500 lifecycles (to 80%) longevity, a quick-charge to 80% in 60-minutes, 3 AC ports, a range of 12V ports and an external light. It''s driven by the safer LiFePO4 lithium ion cell technology, too.
For the premium power station range that hover around the 2000 watt-hour mark, it''s well-priced, too. And it''s that and its Australian made roots that give me the inclination to call it the best power station in Australia.
Although, given it''s a local company, I am disappointed by the relatively low 2-year warranty.
There''s no doubt it sets you back a pretty penny, retailing for $3799 in Australia. But you''re getting a lot here for your moolah. The construction quality is excellent, and the device is smartly designed. The built-in telescopic handle and ruggard wheels make light weight of what on paper looks like a heavy device at 30kg. While the flat top makes it easy to stack and pack.
You can expect a whopping 2048 watt-hours of power, and I''ve run a typical camping set-up off it for 48-hours with ease. It quick-charges to 80% off mains power in an impressive 60-minutes, too. It''s the safer LiFePO4 cell chemistry, which is a must in this writer''s opinion, while the whole system is supported by a class-leading 5-year warranty.
What makes this power station particularly good for premium power station seekers - in particular those striving for off-grid living - is the maximum solar energy input. You can put 1000W of solar power into this station, giving you security in knowing you can make the most of sunlight hours to keep your electricity rolling. You can daisy-chain units together, too.
Other critical specs of note include the 2400W max power output, allowing it to run a lot of devices at once. The 3200W surge capability is handy. And managing to reach 3000 lifecycles before dipping below 80% capacity. I would have liked to have seen a 4th AC port, but 3 USB-C 100W outlets is fantastic.
If money isn''t an object, you simply cannot go wrong with the EcoFlow Delta Max 2000. This power station is a beast and perhaps overkill for general purpose use like camping. (Although I did love taking it camping!) This really shines when it''s an alternate power source for farmers or homes where power outages are common. Especially as they can be daisy-chained together.
As well as the AC ports, you''ve got 2 x USB-A fast charge and 2 x USB-A standard ports. There''s 2 x USB-C 100W ports and 2 x DC ports. There''s wifi and app support, and I''m a fan of the flat top design, as it''s easy to store and leave devices on top while charging. I have even sat a projector on it sometimes while camping.
It''s definitely heavy, and at 22kg it wasn''t the easiest device to move around to be sure. It''s also a shame it''s a lithium-ion battery, which is not only a little less safe than LiFePO4 cell chemistry, but has reduced longevity. Expect 800 lifecycles to 80% capacity.
NRG Vault is an Australian-owned company, with a long history working with power banks through its better known partner-brand, Laser. This is a LiFePO4, mid-range portable power station, delivering 1288Wh of capacity.
It''s a well made battery that can safely handle the rigors of "going bush." But there''s plenty of other reasons why I''ve selected it as your best power station for camping.
While it doesn''t quite have the capacity of the bigger premium power stations, you''re still getting a lot of watt hours at a much more respectable price point of $1500. You''re also looking at a smaller footprint and a slimmer 15.8kg frame, which is easier to get in and out of cars and tents.
Despite this, it doesn''t compromise on high-end features. The 2500 lifecycles is more than acceptable, you''re still getting 4 AC ports and 2 x 100W USB-C ports. There''s a 3 year warranty, too. And it can take 300W of solar input, which is about the max you want to lug around camping..
Perhaps its most annoying fault is in its design, with a fixed top handle that impacts your ability to place things on top to charge (like a laptop) as well as pack into a vehicle.
EcoFlow is undoubtedly one of the leaders in the power station space and the River Max is a genuine go-getter. At $1099 here in Australia, it''s a little on the pricey side, but its superior build quality will last the distance.
Indeed, this LiFePO4 battery is backed in by a 5-year warranty, and claims 3000 lifecycles to 80% capacity.
You get a solid 512Wh lifespan, which charges to 100% in just an hour. That''s going to give you no problems with any day trip or overnighter when it comes to powering general consumer technology or even a portable fridge.
The smart design keeps a nice flat surface, and it''s got modern trimmings including a 100W USB-C port and an app. We also love that the whole battery only weighs a tickle over 6kg, meaning it''s ultra portable.
