Anker’s portable power stations are pretty impressive. Last year while I lost power for a couple of days, I used one to charge my phones and also run a fan since it was super hot. And it performed beautifully, lasting over 48 hours and still having plenty of juice left. It even charged my laptop during that time. Now this one in particular, the Anker 521 Portable Power Station, is a bit smaller. It’s a 256Wh battery pack. It also has two AC outlets, two USB-A ports, a USB-C port and a car socket. The USB-C PD port is rated at 60W, which is fast enough for a laptop too. So how long will it last? Well according to Anker, this one can charge your phone over 20 times. It can charge your laptop for about 4 full cycles, power a lamp for 16 hours, or a fan for 5 hours. It’s not the most powerful charging station on the market, but still a pretty impressive one. With the Anker 521 Portable Power Station you’ll never need to worry about running out of juice again. Whether you’re camping, traveling, or just lost power due to some crazy storms rolling through. The Anker 521 Portable Power Station can handle it all and then some.
