UNBOXING: COSTCO DURACELL POWERBLOCK 500 – Gasless / Battery Generator

I was at Costco and bought this DURACELL PowerBlock 500. There are other similar sized 500Wh power stations online ( https://amzn.to/3EKdEQL ). This is an unboxing video of the Duracell Powerblock 500, a full review video will be coming up after I finish my testing, so like and subscribe!

This is the first time I seen a Duracell Power Block 500 in a Li-Ion format, as this one compact and only 10.6 lbs in weight. Before the Duracell PowerSource 660 ( https://amzn.to/3k7lZVm ) was sealed lead acid batteries and it was much heavier and larger.

One of the first things I noticed was the battery capacity rating. On the box it states 491Wh and on the Unit specs and User Manual it states MAX 478 Wh. Either way I will be running a real world load test on the Duracell Powerblock 500 in a few days to find out how useful this really is.

DURACELL PowerBlock 500 also has 110v/500W pure sine inverters with 3 outlets, USB A and C charging and a 12v power out. I got and reviewed a Jackery Explorer 240 – Power Station ( https://amzn.to/3DVeKHW ) in the past with a 240Wh Backup Lithium Battery power station with 110V/200W Pure Sine Wave AC inverter Outlet Solar Generator. This battery allows me to play my Xbox One S console game while traveling for up to 3.5 hours. I expect this Duracell 500 unit should last me about 6 hours or so.
In the video I got images of the stats for comparison and detailing.

REVIEW: Outdoor Vertical Storage Shed! (50″ W x 29″ D x 79″ H)

We needed more outdoor storage space and got this Outdoor Vertical Storage Shed ( https://amzn.to/3pWfqXX ). Its dimensions are 50″ W x 29″ D x 79″ H and fits perfectly against the exterior wall. It is a great size to store extra folding chairs or gardening supplies.

Stuff in this video:
Outdoor Vertical Storage Shed ( https://amzn.to/3pWfqXX )

Overall I am glad we ordered it from Amazon because Outdoor Vertical Storage Shed ( https://amzn.to/3pWfqXX ) was delivered in 3 boxes that would not have fit in my car. It was made of plastic and is pretty study. It has a roof and a foundation. The door can be locked with a pad lock. The assembly was relatively easy. If you can assemble parts together its pretty easy to figure out. The panels interlock and are held in place by metal plates.

Outdoor Vertical Storage Shed ( https://amzn.to/3pWfqXX ) took us about 2-3 hours to assemble. For good measure we used silicon caulking to seal the seams of the panels making this weatherproof shed more sturdy. We also had uneven concrete floor so we built a quick wood foundation that the shed’s base sits on. It does not come with shelving so we will there add a few wood shelves or just put a metal shelf unit ( https://amzn.to/3E5Am49 ) inside the shed.

REVIEW: Honeywell HT-900 TurboForce Air Circulator Fan – 3 YEARS LATER…

I have owned my Honeywell HT-900 TurboForce Air Circulator Fan ( https://amzn.to/2XzaUEj ) for over 3 years! I use it at night to circulate air during the night as well as during home renovation projects. It’s been a work horse all these years so it deserves a review.

Stuff in this video:
Honeywell HT-900 TurboForce Air Circulator Fan: https://amzn.to/2XzaUEj
Vornado 460 Air Circulator Fan: https://amzn.to/37YJWIg

When compared to my more expensive $50 Vornado 460 Air Circulator Fan: https://amzn.to/37YJWIg bought in the same year, the Vornado blows a stronger more focused tunnel of wind compared to the $20 Honeywell HT900 (https://amzn.to/2XzaUEj ) it also looks more stylish than the practical HT900.

Overall, this is a great value and reliable room fan. I have cleaned it once every 1.5 years or so with a vacuum. After 3 years of running the motor and spindle is starting to make squirrely sounds. There are hanging slots to be mounted to the wall if desired. This fan still works and probably needs to be oiled and serviced.
