This past year has seen more people working from home than ever before. For a lot of them, that meant working from the couch, kitchen table, or maybe even the basement. If you aren’t one of the lucky few with a dedicated office space in your home, you may find each passing day working from home to become more and more difficult. Whether you’re too cramped with housemates, distracted by kids, or just uncomfortable with your current set-up, you can benefit from purchasing a backup battery generator for your home.

What Is a Backup Battery Power Generator

A backup battery power generator, also known as a portable power station, is a compact, portable power generator that can supply your home with electricity during a power outage or emergency situation. Power generators store electricity in its battery that can power the household appliances and devices of your choosing. 

Here are the top three ways you can benefit from having a portable power station in your house when working from home.

1. Never Stress About Losing Connection

As your work-from-home experience stretches from season to season, you have a wider variety of weather emergencies to worry about. Whether it be heat waves causing forced power outages or a hurricane or snow storm that knocks down power lines, there are many opportunities for you to be facing a blackout. Without power, you have no means of connecting to the Internet or charging your devices to get work done. Instead of stressing about your next steps, you can prepare now by purchasing a backup battery power station. Generark’s HomePower ONE allows you to charge your devices, power your WiFi router, and even keep larger appliances running for up to seven days. This means you can plug in a lamp, charge your phone and laptop, and tap into the WiFi to fit in a full day of work without worrying about when the power company will get the power back on.  

2. Don’t Let Power Outlets Limit You

Whether you have to keep a desktop computer plugged in or need to charge your laptop often throughout the day, you may find yourself limited in your home office set-up due the placement of your power outlets and the length of your cords. Instead of getting stuck attached to the wall, moving furniture around for better access, or creating trip hazards full of wires and extension cords throughout the house, a portable power station will allow you to bring the power outlet to wherever you would rather have your office set up. You can plug multiple devices into the HomePower ONE to charge or power the office must-haves from anywhere in your home, without having to worry about where the nearest power outlet is or if someone may absentmindedly pull your cables loose while trying to step over them. Work from the privacy of the basement, the comfort of your couch, or wherever feels best for you!

3. Take Your Work Outside

When we said work from wherever you choose, we meant it! Since the HomePower ONE is completely portable and stores its power within its battery, you can even bring it outside! You can power any device, like your laptop or phone, that you normally would inside from anywhere else on your property. If you’re in dire need of a change of scenery or even want to keep an eye on the kids playing outside while you get a few more hours of work in, a portable power station is perfect for you. You could also benefit from the SolarPower ONE, a solar panel power station that can not only recharge your HomePower ONE while you’re still using it to charge your own devices, but you can charge USB-compatible devices directly from the solar generator. 

Summary

Your work-from-home situation is already stressful enough without having to worry about the effects of a power outage on your productivity and deadlines. With a backup battery generator like the HomePower ONE, or even a solar panel power generator like the SolarPower ONE, you can power your devices and keep your office running through anything. Whether there is a power outage due to a weather emergency or maintenance issues, you can seamlessly continue your workday with help from a portable power station. You can even choose to work from any place in your home or yard without being confined to power outlet access or the length of your cords. The best part may just be that you can continue charging your devices through the power station while it charges itself with a solar generator or one of its other two charging methods.
