Hi all,
So as the title says, should I invest in a solar power station like this Ugreen Portable Power Station Lifepo4 Battery Solar Generator | 2400W 2048Wh
I would need to sell some precious metals to afford it though.
Obviously I would need to also buy some solar panels and accessories to charge it in a true SHTF scenario as the power grid more than likely won't be functioning.
You guys got any thoughts on holding onto the precious metals and just hope that when a crash occurs you will be able to buy the power station then if needed.
Or rather just sell some PMs now and get the power station while they are readily available and avoid the inevitable run on these kinds of items and price increase in a SHTF scenario.
It's not like I would need it to survive, as the way I have prepped is without the need for a fridge, etc., but I'm thinking it would be nice to be able to charge batteries, walkie talkies, use a laptop, etc. So something that would be nice to have and could prove useful in the future but is not essential I guess. Could maybe power my little bar fridge to keep food fresh a little longer like hunted squirrel or bird meat, but that would drain quite a bit of power if used too long.
