Portable Power Stations: A Reliable Backup Power for Health
Navigation
Introduction
There's no denying the convenience that portable power stations provide. Being able to harness power practically anywhere, anytime is a game changer for our hyper-connected lives. But did you know portable power also has the potential to positively impact your health and well-being in meaningful ways?
Portable power stations - also called power banks or battery packs - use rechargeable batteries to store electricity. They have built-in AC outlets, DC ports, and USB slots that allow you to plug in various devices and appliances. Once charged up, they can power things for hours and even days on end, providing a mobile source of electricity whenever and wherever you need it.
As versatile as they are practical, portable power stations are quickly becoming a necessity for those with medical equipment needs. Giving critical devices like CPAP machines, nebulizers and refrigerators reliable backup power can mean the difference between health and discomfort, or even life and death. If you depend on electrical medical equipment - whether at home, during travel, or off the grid - having a portable source of electricity you can trust may offer priceless peace of mind.
Portable power stations 101
To take advantage of portable power for your health, let's first cover the basics. Portable power stations come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from smaller 500Wh models up to units with 5,000Wh of storage. The larger the capacity in Wh (watt hours), the more power it can provide and the longer the runtime.
You'll also want to consider the wattage or amperage capabilities of different units. Medical equipment like CPAP machines and nebulizers typically require at least 65 watts, so make sure the unit you choose can deliver that amount of continuous power. High-capacity models can even power small medical refrigerators and other devices requiring hundreds of watts.
Beyond the raw specs, extra features can make a huge difference. Look for units with multiple AC outlets, DC ports, and USB sockets. DC charging inputs are great for charging from your vehicle. And advanced models offer app control, LCD readout, and other useful perks.
The key is finding a portable power station that matches or exceeds the combined power demands of all the medical devices you need to run. Then add at least 20% capacity as a buffer for variability and longevity. This allows you to power your equipment with confidence, whether during a power outage or traveling far from established power sources.

Use cases
- CPAP Machines - For those who use a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machine to treat sleep apnea, a portable power station provides peace of mind during power outages and while traveling. Most CPAPs require around 35 to 140 watts, so a unit with at least 500 watt-hours of capacity is recommended.
- Nebulizers - For treating asthma and respiratory conditions, nebulizers need a steady power supply to function properly. A portable power station ensures your nebulizer treatments can be administered anywhere, anytime. Plan for 150 to 200 watts of power for up to an hour per treatment.
- Medical Refrigerators - If you depend on medication or blood products that must be refrigerated, having backup portable power is essential. Look for a power station with at least 400 to 500 watts to run a small medical fridge during an outage for 8 hours or more. Consider a larger unit with 1000+ watts for larger units.
- Emergency Devices - Defibrillators, suction equipment and other lifesaving medical gear require reliable power to work when needed most. Calculate the wattage demands and seek a portable power station that provides at least 50% more capacity for ultimate dependability in emergencies.
The list goes on and on.
