The summer travel season is upon us, and while for many people that may mean cruises or destination resorts, my family prefers the peace and quiet of a good camping trip. It's not unusual for us to play “Campground Roulette” where we just pack our camping equipment and drive until we find an inviting campground to call home for the weekend. In the interest of transparency, I have to share that we tread a fine line between camping and “glamping.” If there’s one piece of equipment we’ve learned is absolutely vital to making Campground Roulette a success, it’s a good portable power station. An Ampace Andes 1500 portable power station has all the bells and whistles to keep laptops powered, cooking appliances functional, and—most importantly—the fans on while we’re out enjoying all that nature has to offer.

I have a large family, and prepping for a camping trip is already a time-consuming endeavor. The last thing my partner and I want to spend our prep time doing is waiting for a portable power station to charge. The Andes 1500 power station offers a superfast charging speed thanks to Ampace’s A-Boost technology, going from 0 to 100% charged in as little as 55 minutes. A-Boost is easy to use, too, as it can be activated from the Ampace app or by simply pressing the main power button and DC power button together for 4 seconds. The fast charging speed of the Andes 1500 power station is a lifesaver for longer trips away from home, when we may be limited to how long we have access to a power source for charging. 

With 13 versatile ports, we know we can rely on the Ampace Andes 1500 power station to meet all of our power needs. Remote work makes it viable for me to take my job with me when we head out for an extended camping trip, but I still need to power the electronic devices that keep me connected to my job. That means charging a laptop, a mobile phone, and camera batteries, which the Andes 1500 portable power station can handle with ease. 

With a capacity of 1462Wh, 2400W rated AC power output, and 3600W surge power, the Andes 1500 portable power station is not just ideal for keeping small electronics functional. Looking to have a romantic outdoor movie night at home? The Andes 1500 portable power station is quiet but powerful enough to power an outdoor projector and all of your mood lighting.

As much as my family loves the great outdoors, we don’t particularly enjoy being in the dark and cold when a winter storm hits. The Ampace Andes 1500 portable power station is just as handy to have for home power backup in an emergency as it is for those long-haul camping trips. It can easily handle heavier loads like home appliances that can draw up to 3600W, providing a little bit of comfort at an uncomfortable time. Portable power stations are low-noise solutions to emergency power backup, with no toxic emissions or special maintenance needs. 

The Ampace Andes 1500 portable power station features the iconic LFP battery cell, providing stable power output in emergencies even when temperatures are extremely low. The Andes 1500 is resistant to temperatures as low as -20°C (-4°F). If you’re like me and live somewhere prone to power outages, you may be concerned that your portable power station won’t hold up to frequent use. The LFP battery of the Andes 1500 portable power station has the longest lifespan of its kind—lasting upwards of 6000 charging cycles, twice that of comparable portable power stations on the market. With that kind of longevity, you can rest easy knowing your investment in a portable power station from Ampace is good for the long haul.

Whether you’re camping (or in my case, glamping), living that van life, or in need of a safe alternative to back up power in an emergency, you can rely on the Ampace Andes 1500 portable power station to have you covered.
