In the 1000-2000 watt hour (wh) Portable Power Station range, the uses expand considerably. If you consider that you could possibly charge a phone for between 100 to 200 hours (1000wh or 2000wh respectively), then that gives you a good idea of how powerful they are in this range.
In the 1000-2000wh range, what can you power?
Office appliances: A 1000wh Portable Power Station could theoretically power a 50w laptop for 20 hours and a 2000wh one could power it for 40 hours. Therefore, if you went to the top of this power range you could possibly power your laptop all week.
Power tools: At this range you could possibly use a Portable Power Station as a power back-up. For example, if you were using an 800w corded drill it would last for over two hours if you had a 2000wh Power Pack. Simply check the wattage of the power tools you wish to use and then check against the Watt Hours. This range could suit a handy-man or someone using tools for a relatively short time.
Camping equipment: As mentioned elsewhere, you should consider getting some 12v appliances if you go camping or campervanning. This will enable your Portable Power Station to power much more. At this range you could easily power lights and a laptop etc. You could also have light use of a 12v kettle and other small appliances.
What general uses could these be used for?
Obviously the 1000-2000wh range of Portable Power Stations is very broad. But at the lower end you should be able to use it for light building work and back-up power. Toward the 2000wh range you should be able to use it for more sustained use. If you keep recharging, you should be totally fine. The vast majority of Power Banks can be recharged from your car or a solar panel, so even long camping trips should be viable.
