For all worried about power outages and battery failures

I think I found the battery for you!

LiFePO4 Prismatic Module: 3.2V 200 Ah, 3C Rate (640 wh), CE Approved

It's 200,000mAH, weighs 15 pounds (That's portable, right?) and is good for 2000 recharges.

Put two of them together and you could get some 6v action going on!

And from the looks of it, it has enough juice, with the proper voltage regulator, to power about 150 passthroughs. Great for le vape meet.

I mostly kid, but it'd still be handy to have in the basement or something.. I think you'd at most have to recharge it once a year.

Anyone want to try and string together like 10 510 attys to the badboy and link them all up with some tubing?

wow... being in the mountains, I always appreciate batteries. Last week we were powerless for 4 days, but $360 each? I just use a car battery and cig lighter adapter. Worked for the whole time!

Well, fine. If you must be a party pooper, the cheapest solution would be to lash 4 dcells together, and for the low, low price of about $10 you get 15,000mAH emergency energy for use in hurricanes that won't self discharge. Or there is always your car battery. (I don't have a car, this is pointless to me, but if you're in an area with frequent power outages something tells me that you would probably have a car)

The main point of my post was to have a good laugh, though. They have a 40,000mAH battery avaliable for like, $70. But I just thought it would be funny to suggest a massivley oversized, clearly comical use for an electric car battery.

On another note, apparently you can wire a prius into your house to restore power to your house during power outages using a very beefy inverter.

Nothing terribly unique to the prius, but it's almost ideally suited to it.
