Warnings of potential winter blackouts across the UK has caused the sale of portable batteries to climb, with costing thousands already selling out.
Anker Innovations Technology, a large manufacturer of portable batteries, says that sales in October were up to three times higher than in the previous month. This comes as the National Grid has warned of potential power outages should Russia's war in Ukraine continue to affect supplies and the country suffers a cold winter.
According to the experts, people are willing to spend big money on batteries that can keep appliances running during the winter, with this model designed to keep a fridge running during outages. Known as the 757 Powerhouse model, the battery costs around £1,400 and can recharge a portable fridge for 22 hours.
The firm sells the majority of its power station products to US residents, as some parts experience a higher volume of outages., with UK customers usually buying off them to prepare for camping trips. However, PR manager Lorna Smith told Bloomberg that UK households worried over the blackout warnings are buying big batteries as a backup, reports Wales Online.
While this could provide homes with a lifeline amid rolling blackouts, the company says it is sold out until December "due to overwhelming demand". Ms Smith told Bloomberg: “It has been a slow uptake in the UK because we haven’t had [storms and blackouts] before, but now we’ve seen quite an increase over the past couple of months with all the warnings of power cuts."
According to Anker's website, another battery, the PowerHouse 1229Wh, can provide power backup for lights for eight hours, the fridge for 2.7 hours, the TV for nine hours and a microwave for an hour and a half.
