How do I make sure my portable power system is charged and ready for use?
As the leaves start changing color and the air gets crisper, many of us start thinking about fall camping trips. But before heading out, it's important to make sure your portable power station is prepped and ready to go.
Start by fully charging your power station several days before your trip. Check the charge level indicator lights to ensure it's at 100%. Then disconnect it from the wall charger so it's not draining any power sitting idle. Test all the ports and connections to make sure everything is functioning properly. Plug in and charge a few small devices like phones or tablets to verify it can hold and supply a charge.
Also inspect the physical condition of your power station. Make sure there are no cracks or damage that could allow moisture or debris inside. Clean the outside with a soft dry cloth. Check that the vents and fans aren't clogged with dust. A well-maintained power station will perform better and last longer.
Once you've confirmed everything is in working order, remember to top off one more full charge cycle right before heading out for your trip. That way you'll start off with maximum power capacity. Careful preparation means you’ll have reliable off-grid electricity for all your fall camping needs.
