New to BLUETTI and Power stations! Need some input!

Hello all! I am 32 years old on the spectrum and had bought both a Jackery and a BLUETTI Elite 30 V2 (with an additional one on the way!). I am buying these all for power outage emergencies and I am wondering how long it can do for a WiFi router? Like an 8w? How long has that lasted for anyone?

I have a lot of anxiety about power outages and severe storms that cause them a lot so having these things I think will really benefit me? I’d love to hear some stories and experiences with yours!

Also I would love some tips on how to prolong the battery life for the unit as a whole please! 💖💖💖

Thank you!

Looking for recommendations

I'm planning on purchasing a portable generator to power a small amplifier (music). Do any of you have recommendations for one on the budget friendly side (200$ or less)?

Thanks

Rockpals 500w portable power station - display initially turns on but then turns off with a progressively higher pitched noise every time I press a button

As a disclosure, I received this power station in the condition it’s in from a friend who wasn’t able to figure it out either.
As the title says I’ve got here a Rockpals portable power station that seems to take a charge as far as I’ve tested but doesn’t seem to like outputting power to any of the ports or powering the display past an initial power on, after that the display turns off and it makes this high pitched sound any time I press any of the buttons which gets higher and higher pitched until eventually it’s a continuous high pitched ringing. Now Rockpals does not exist as a company anymore otherwise I’d be contacting them, if anyone has any experience or insight on this type of issue on Rockpals products that would be very valuable to me, thank you

EDIT: I’ve got a video of the issue I’m talking about

Tired of using your phone to check your station? I made a native macOS app for Ecoflow/Bluetti

Hey fellow power station owners,

I often work on my Mac while charging or using my power station. I hated having to pick up my phone or keep the mobile app open just to check the current wattage or battery percentage.

I built a native macOS app called **Power** to solve this. It connects directly via Bluetooth and shows you real-time data right on your desktop.

**What it does:**
* Shows real-time input/output wattage, battery levels, and temperatures.
* Auto-discovers devices (no complex pairing required).
* Supports Ecoflow (River 2, Delta 2) and Bluetti (EB3A).

It's a side project I built for myself, but I've polished it enough to share. It's currently in free beta.
