Portable Power station

[Rob]

I have asked Russ on this one, and he came back to say £25 was the best he could find... but does anyone else know where I could buy at the best price?.

Cheers

25gbp is good Rob, my friend bought one for a tenner from a car shop that sells all sorts of stuff, it didnt come with the ac adapter but that only cost a couple of quid. He powers his etc125 with no problems..May be worth a look Rob..

Rob,

Aldi have them now and again, but they are always around £25. I think thats a pretty good deal. One charge powers my LX90 for 5 or 6 nights.

Cheers Gaz, Russ mentioned that also.

I'm going to check Aldi later today.

Thanks again

Keep an eye on Lidl, theirs is £14.99 but its impossible to say when it will come up again, just like Aldi.

James

[Rob]

It will if you buy an adaptor (sold in curries) wich will reduce it down to 6v

The power stattion turned up today. the box was wet so felt a bit worried (water/damp cardboard and electric don't go!) still opened the box to find the unit pressed into a sealed plastic cover. Charging the thing now... the LED's tell me she is half full & the inset light works so far!!!

So far, so good!!!
