Portable power stations, also known as solar generators, have exploded in popularity in the past couple of years. It’s easy to understand why. The lightweight lithium batteries found in most newer models have become more affordable, and so has solar panels.<\/p>\n
They’re great for camping outdoors, to keep at home for emergencies when the power goes out, or anyone that travels and needs to have access to power.<\/p>\n
I have a portable power station, the Goal Zero Yeti 1000 (click to view on Amazon)<\/a>, and the biggest reason I bought it was that I would be able to charge it with solar panels since I travel fulltime in my RV and boondock\/dry camp most of the time.<\/p>\n Related Post: What Is A Power Station\/Solar Generator And How Does It Work?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n I have installed the MPPT charge controller on the Yeti<\/a>, and I recommend everybody that is considering buying a portable power station to get one that has an MPPT charge controller. It improves the charging speed a considerable amount. I’ll talk more about the benefits of MPPT versus PWM in the FAQ at the bottom.<\/p>\n To help you out in the solar generator jungle, I am going to compare and review the best portable power stations out there that come with an MPPT charge controller.<\/p>\n Since there are so many different power stations\/solar generators with different battery capacities, I have decided to split it up into three different posts. This first post will focus on power stations that have a battery capacity between 1 and 300 watt-hours. Click here to view the second post<\/a> with power stations between 301-999Wh, or click here for power stations with a battery capacity of 1kWH and larger<\/a>.<\/p>\n To help you out as much as possible, I will also recommend compatible solar panels for each of the power stations I review.<\/p>\n You can use the table of contents below to navigate the post.<\/p>\n\nBest 1-300Wh (Watt-hours) Power Stations With MPPT Charge Controller<\/h2>\n\n
