Emergency Preparedness.... the house has no power due to an outage, off-grid in a cabin, tiny home, camper or conducting relief efforts in remote locations. How do you keep the refrigerated perishables cold, keep the air conditioner running in hot climates, or run pumps to deliver your water? Vital medical equipment needs continuous power, communications need to keep running... so what can be done?
At SanTan Solar, we offer the EcoFlow Delta Pro as a portable 3600W power source option. This combines the battery, charge controller and inverter all in one package. They're quiet, run independently, don't product any emissions, and don't require ongoing maintenance. Due to its many power outputs, this unit accommodates devices and appliances that would otherwise need to be added to a DIY system or some fuel powered generators. 
Building a DIY solar power source requires charge controllers, inverters, and approximately sized battery banks. You would have to consider the fuses, breaker, disconnect switches, wire length and size, and how to make the system portable and easy to maintain. The advantage of this DIY system is the size and power you can customize to fit your needs. However, for the individual who desires a more "plug-and-play" option, then the portable battery generator is the way to go.
Portable power stations are worth it for anyone who spends a lot of time away from home and needs to have electricity available to them. Having reliable electricity on hand whenever needed, regardless of location can make all sorts of activities easier, from camping trips and RV living, to disaster relief efforts. Additionally, portable power stations come with lots of additional features such as solar charging and car adaptors, making this unit even more valuable. Larger capacity power station batteries tend to hold their charge longer than smaller ones, but can range anywhere from 6-24 hours. To get the most out of your devices' lifespan, it is best to unplug it when not in use and recharge it regularly.
When using the EcoFlow Delta Pro for emergency preparedness, it's crucial to understand its capabilities and limitations. Assess your power needs and choose the appropriate model based on the devices you plan to power. Keep it charged regularly and consider having a solar panel to charge it sustainably during extended emergencies.
The best generator for your home is the one you don't have to think too much about and is ready when you need it.
Portable battery backups are essential tools for emergency preparedness, providing a reliable source of power to keep your essential devices charged when traditional power sources are unavailable. Having a portable battery backup in your emergency preparedness kit can be a lifesaver during power outages or when you're on the move and need to keep your devices charged.
