Anyone using a portable power station to power their desktop rigs?
I live in an old pre war New York City apartment building with questionable wiring. I also have a very limited number outlets, so my audio equipment is sharing a surge protector with my tv, ps5, Apple TV, and a sound bar. The other plug of the same outlet runs my Fios modem and cable, a switch, router, and a Roon core, so plenty of noise.
I was initially looking at power conditioners, but that wouldn’t help with the lack of outlets. That lead me to looking at running the audio off of battery power.
My setup is pretty simple, just two components. A Burson Conductor 3XR(3A Super Charger) and an iFi Stream (15v Sbooster) and that’s it.
Are there potential pitfalls going with the battery? I can’t imagine it being much worse than what I’m currently dealing with. I don’t think unplugging the battery when listening to music and plugging it back in would be to much of an inconvenience. Also would be a pretty cool appliance to have around for other use cases.
Sorry if this has been brought up before. I know some people are using them, but couldn’t find much info.
