Portable power stations for Japan
Japan uses 100 V at 50 Hz in eastern Japan and 60 Hz in western Japan with Type A and B sockets (source: IEC World Plugs). Buy a model sold for Japan, or check that the AC output voltage and frequency on the label match local appliances. Japan's mains voltage is lower than most countries', so a station sold for 120 V or 230 V markets may not suit Japanese appliances. Earthquake and typhoon outages are the main home-backup use.
What to check before buying
- AC output voltage and frequency must match your appliances.
- Socket type: use the local version, not an adapter, for high-draw loads.
- Capacity (Wh): size it with the runtime calculator.
- Local warranty: buy from the brand's official store or authorised seller for your country.
