GoKawiilZDNET advises against running high-wattage heaters and HVAC on portable power stations
A ZDNET reviewer cautions that although many power stations are technically capable of powering large appliances like central air conditioning, electric water heaters, space heaters, and ovens, doing so isn't advisable during outages. The concern is that these heat-producing and high-draw devices can rapidly deplete a power station's limited battery capacity, undermining its usefulness as backup power.
