    DIY Power Station for Deer Blind or Tent

    I saw some pretty cool power stations at a hunting show this summer, but they just ran off a 12V feeder battery and were wanting like $125 for them. I put this portable one together for under $50 and it works great!

    FYI you can get usb powered “desk” fans on Amazon as well. I’ve built a couple of these about 6-8 years back and they work well. Never have used the cigarette lighter adapter yet.

      Awesome Nick! I’ve always thought about buying one of those charging stations. Think we will just build one now!

            It is a super simple build. I built a second one for my dad and took about 5 minutes the second time...

              I wanted the cigarette lighter type adaptor as well because I already have an AC/DC adaptor that fits it so I can run a standard AC plug off it if needed also, but USB desk fans would work great too.

                Nice job, I might have missed it but if you did not put a solar voltage controller in there I would recommend it. I have had a couple of those solar panels put out a little too much and caused the 12v feeder battery to swell.
