Portable power has been a staple in many Aussie households and outdoor activities. Being big on adventure, sustainability, and cost-saving, the concept of alternative energy brought by batteries, portable generators, and solar panels is extremely attractive and is already seen in day-to-day happenings. This is also the reason why these power sources got bigger, coming in bundles or even in entire system sets you can avail of. After all, having a power bundle is a lot easier for several setups like off-grid, extended camping trips, and power outage backup. 

If you're on the lookout for the best power bundles online, head straight to Outbax for a range of premium equipment fused together for extra reliable power whether at home or outdoors. We even have off grid systems and dual battery systems for larger power requirements!

What Are The Most Popular Portable Power Sources?

Batteries

The use of batteries is mostly prevalent in households and recreational vehicles such as caravans and 4x4s. These come in different types with lead-acid batteries, AGM batteries, and lithium batteries being the most popular ones. Among these, the overall quality and performance of lithium iron phosphate batteries or simply LiFePO4 batteries has always stood out, which is why seasoned battery users have a high preference for them. 

A single LiFePO4 battery has tons of edge over the traditional lead-acid battery from weight down to lifespan. It's significantly lighter yet packs more capacity with a higher density and has a safer build that is less prone to catching fire. On top of these, LiFePO4 batteries have outstanding deep cycling capabilities, a built-in BMS for optimal runtime, and unmatched versatility in terms of performance under varying temperatures. 

Portable Generators

Generators are a hit in the camping scene as well as on road trips. At present, inverter generators in particular are taking over the field of portable power due to their many advantages over traditional units. For one, they are quieter, lighter, and have more advanced features.

The top win for inverter generators would be their fuel efficiency. These units are designed to adjust their engine speed according to load, using less fuel and operating more discreetly too. Our Gentrax generators at Outbax in particular are known for their superior quality, delivering a Pure Sine Wave output safe for running sensitive devices. 

Solar Panels

Solar power has been widespread in the country given the continuous rise of energy prices. These are not just a great way to save on electricity costs but also a proven-and-tested way to power up the eco-friendly way. 

There are various types of solar panels in the market. You could go for traditional fixed solar panels, try the famous flexible solar panels, or opt for portable solar mats. For best results, opt for monocrystalline solar panels as these are considered the best in terms of efficiency.

Power Stations

Power stations are great for hassle-free, plug-and-play electricity sources you can easily bring anywhere. This is like a powerbank but with more capacity to run bigger appliances such as RV fridges and cookers. As with all power equipment, your portable power station should be sized properly to ensure sufficient output in accordance with your requirements. 

Is It Worth Getting A Power Station? 

Definitely! If you're someone who loves exploring the outdoors from time to time, a power station would be terrific to pack for a beach day or a short camping trip. These may not be as big on power compared to battery packs, generators, and power systems but are great for backup and smaller-scale applications. 

The great thing about power stations is convenience. There's no need for additional setups here - just plug in what you need and start using it! While most units are used as temporary sources of power outdoors or at home, it's good to note that there are now bigger, expandable power station models that can power much more than standard ones. 

Should I Get A Lithium Battery Or An Inverter Generator?

Both portable generators and batteries make a great pick for alternative energy. If you're torn between getting one of them, it's best to consider surrounding factors first, as the pros and cons of both equipment might affect these. 

For instance, do you have high-current appliances? These are better off powered by a generator then. At the same time, if you want a silent operation with zero emissions, a battery would be more suited for you. Knowing your needs, preferences, and setting inside-out will help you determine which power component is suited for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can a UPS be used as a generator?

    While both provide backup power, a UPS and a generator serve different purposes. A UPS delivers instant, short-term power designed to protect electronics during outages and allow safe shutdown procedures, typically running for 15-30 minutes depending on load. Generators provide extended power for hours or days but take time to start up. Some larger UPS systems with LiFePO4 batteries can serve as a reliable alternative to small camping generators for shorter periods, offering silent, fume-free operation that's perfect for overnight use or noise-restricted areas.

  • What is the difference between a power bank and a power station?

    Power banks are compact, portable devices designed specifically for charging small electronics like phones and tablets via USB, typically ranging from 5,000 to 20,000mAh capacity. Power stations are substantially larger units with capacities measured in watt-hours, featuring multiple output types including 12V sockets, USB ports, and often 240V AC outlets through built-in inverters. While a power bank fits in your pocket for daily carry, a power station can run everything from portable fridges to power tools, making it essential for camping or emergency backup applications.

  • How do I know what size inverter I need?

    Determining correct inverter size requires checking the wattage requirements of all appliances you plan to run, which you'll find on their specification labels. Add up the total wattage of devices you'll use simultaneously, then select an inverter with a continuous power rating at least 20% higher than this total to ensure reliable operation. Remember that some appliances have surge requirements when starting up that can be 2-3 times their running wattage, particularly items with motors like fridges or power tools.

  • Are there battery powered generators?

    Yes, battery powered generators – more commonly called portable power stations – use large internal lithium-ion or LiFePO4 batteries combined with inverters to provide AC power output. These units offer silent, emission-free operation that's perfect for camping, indoor use, or noise-sensitive environments. Unlike traditional petrol generators, they require no fuel, produce no fumes, and can be safely used inside tents or vehicles, though they typically offer shorter runtimes and require access to mains power or solar panels for recharging.

  • What is a hybrid solar inverter?

    A hybrid solar inverter serves as the intelligent heart of modern solar power systems, managing energy flow between solar panels, battery storage, and the electrical grid. This all-in-one device can simultaneously convert DC solar power to AC for home use, charge battery banks for night-time operation, and seamlessly switch to grid power when needed. During outages, it automatically disconnects from the grid and powers your home from batteries, maximising energy independence while ensuring you always have reliable power regardless of weather or grid conditions.

  • Do I need a fuse for my 12V setup?

    Absolutely – fuses are non-negotiable safety components in any 12V electrical system. These inexpensive devices protect your valuable equipment from costly damage and prevent potentially catastrophic electrical fires by automatically breaking the circuit if current exceeds safe levels due to shorts or equipment failure. Always use appropriately rated fuses for each circuit (never exceed manufacturer specifications), position them as close to the battery as possible, and carry spares for quick replacement when needed.

  • What can a 1000W inverter power?

    A 1000W (1KW) pure sine wave inverter comfortably handles most small to medium household appliances and electronics. You can reliably run laptops (50-100W), LED TVs up to 50" (80-150W), small bar fridges (100-200W), power tools like drills or sanders (300-800W), and multiple device chargers simultaneously. However, always verify actual power consumption on appliance labels and remember that some devices require surge capacity during startup, so avoid running multiple high-draw items simultaneously to prevent overload.

  • How can I get power while camping off-grid?

    Off-grid camping power typically centres on a deep cycle battery system paired with either a 12V control box or portable power station for distribution. Charge your battery while driving using a DC-DC charger that optimises power transfer from your vehicle's alternator, or deploy portable solar panels for sustainable charging at camp. This setup powers essential items like LED lights, portable fridges, and device chargers for days without mains access, with capacity depending on your battery size and consumption patterns – most campers find a 100-120Ah battery sufficient for weekend trips.
