Power Stations - Worth Buying or DIY?

This month’s topic: the pros and cons of buying an off the shelf power station. Are they worth the money or can you do better with a DIY build? Also we'll look at practical uses for them around the house and in the field.

Amazon links to models I have bought and would recommend.

The Scout75 Livestream is a monthly livestream on the first Wednesday of the month at 7:00pm Central.
The stream starts off on a topic related to portable radio and we won’t know where it goes.
The target audience is the more preparedness minded people, both “hams” and those outside the amateur radio hobby.

Consider subscribing if this is your kind of thing.

Don’t let the whole “Buy Me A Coffee” thing throw you. I can afford my own coffee…
It’s just a convenient way to tie all the YT channels together and provide some additional content. YouTube may not like all that may be found there.
