Great video. The third option is actually inefficient way to run 12V devices. The transformer in your power bank has to convert 12/24/48V -> 110V just to to use your router’s adapter where 110v -> 12v conversion happens again. These conversions reduce the juice can be used and heats up your power bank. Barrel plug method is more efficient. Possibly give double if not triple the juice
When plugging in the original power adapter into a battery back up using the 110 volt plug in it will drain the backup faster than drawing a 12 Volt directly to the router. The reason is that the battery backup has to invert the power from its 12 volt D.C. To 110 volt AC, then converting the power back from 110 AC to 12 volt D.C. That eats up an amount of the batteries power just to do the conversion up then down before you have ever used the final requirement of power.
I didn't even know that the providers of the Internet in the USA are operated with air and a good mood. Everyone else uses electricity for this. And in the event of a power failure...
The third device is nothing more than a standard power strip used with multiple power plug In requirements. The normal/original power adaptor gor nothing units is being used. This method is the most convenient since what you plug in is just what you would use under normal power useage.
There are USB 5 volt to 12 volt converters on Amazon that you can use with a power bank if power fails. I`ve just ordered one. My WIFI router is 12 volts and about 4 watts and a 2000 mAh power bank should work for hours. The output of the power bank needs to be at least two amps.
Check backside of your router or the power adapter it came with. It should list out voltage and polarities of the adapter. Usually routers take 12Volts with 5.5mm male barrel plugs. Make sure the voltage is correct.
How's this gonna work when the grid goes down for real? A solar flar6, CME, or EMP? Not a temporary disruption in the ow to your neighborhood or part of town. But a full fledged, grid down system collapse. One that's not up and running after a few hours, or Heaven forbid, all day or night? But one where power isn't restored nation wide for years It takes over one year to produce one if the huge power distribution substation transformers we you6in the US. A YEAR!!! To construct one. Their built in China. And very likely, if we ever suffer an EMP, they may be behind it. And not too willing to help get us back up and on our feet. Maybe teach people how to prepare for that. How to build a Faraday Cage to proyect their sensitive electronics. Only need some aluminum foil, cardboard, tape and Zip Lock bags.
sir, i''m sorry, but this is totally unrealistic. the only possible thing that can happen is power going off for a few days or even a week at its worst. if a disturbance happens for years, then all internet providers will have to shut down because they can't get electricity unless using renewable energy sources off-grid and totally local and private to them. it's extremely unlikely that an EMP will happen, and, even if the chance can never be zero, it's still extremely unlikely. also, aluminum foil cannot be used for faraday cages. it has to be some sort of conductive metal mesh. you've been getting some information on the wrong website about this malarkey. this is really only for the local disruption in service that lasts a few hours and/or days.

Wish I knew about this before the hurricane 😢
Thanks. Can you provide a link to buy that generator?
can you recharge it and us it at the same time ?
Does using the adapters allow longer battery usage vs just plug straight into the side?

What was the purpose of the white plug in the 3rd option. Was this used only because you needed to plug up 2 devices.? Thank u ☺️

In requirements. The normal/original power adaptor gor nothing units is being used. This method is the most convenient since what you plug in is just what you would use under normal power useage.
What adapters did you use? My router is 12V and has a DC input for power.

The power adaptors he used are the ones that came with the devices he is demonstating

Interesting 🤔
I don't see any Internet!?
Can't hear you
Do one on how to make beef jerky
