Portable Battery Accepting Two-Prong Plu

[johnk]

I'm looking for a portable battery to run a nebulizer during a power outage. Need it for two nebulizer sessions per day, each lasting approximately 15 minutes.

If possible, I'd like it to accept an AC two-prong plug and be capable of being recharged via a wall socket once power is restored.

Any recommendations?

Do you have any specs on the nebulizer? Make, model, amperage, etc.

Yeti makes some inventive power supplies. This one is pricey at $600. They sell solar panels that you can attach if you anticipate an extended outtage.

If you have a vehicle that is somewhat convenient to access you could use an inverter to take advantage of your vehicle's battery for $30.

You could always use a car battery, charger, and inverter. Costco sells something like what you're talking about, but I need max input current of your device to recommend anything specific.

Also, you probably need a pure sine inverter to avoid damaging your equipment.

Wouldn't this be a job for a small generator.

a good sinewave output UPS?, do you have to carry it. UPS are typically sized for 15min, VA of unit must be greater that Nebulizer also expect 10-12 hour recharge to 100% with anything lead acid or NICAD

if this is similar to nebulizers i've used, it's just a small air pump. I would not expect the signal cleanliness to matter and the draw is low. ups would be perfect. i have also recommended the harbor freight booster back with the battery to a friend that runs liquid pumps outdoors. that worked great too. and cheap.

my nebulizers have a 9 volt battery back up. I survived 4 days visiting my sister when they had a power outage mid way thru my first day there. did 5-6 usages daily on that one battery. just swapped it out for my fresh spare battery when I got home but it still had life.

Buy a UPS -Uninterruptible Power Supply. They’re designed for this. The Nebulizer manufacturer may even have recommendations.
