Portable Power Stations: Keeping Tailgate Gear Running All Day
A tailgate setup runs on more electricity than people expect — speakers, lights, a griddle, phone charging. A portable power station keeps it all going without hunting for outlets.
- Size the power station to your actual gear; a small griddle or speaker system draws more than most phones and lights combined.
- Charge it fully the night before — a half-charged unit is the most common game-day disappointment.
- Keep a 12V or car-charging option as backup in case the day runs longer than planned.
