Best power stations for home power outages

As of November 13, 2026, the cheapest in-stock unit we checked that covers this load (1,419 Wh, 280 W) is the EcoFlow DELTA Pro at $1,799, or $0.61 per usable Wh.

A 12-hour outage of essentials: half a day of fridge, internet, lights, phones and some laptop time. A full day of the same needs about twice the capacity.

The load we sized for

• Refrigerator (full-size)150 W × 4 h
• Wi-Fi router + modem20 W × 12 h
• LED lights (several)30 W × 5 h
• Phone charging (2 phones)20 W × 3 h
• Laptop60 W × 4 h

Wattages are typical estimates, not measurements. Check your own labels, or use the size calculator. We add 10% headroom and require the unit's rated output to cover everything running at once. Startup surges are not modeled.
