Batteries for Rent in New York City
We love our green power solutions for the event industry in NYC and we're always experimenting with new equipment as it comes out. Using a battery or solar solution for an event requires a different workflow, and the entire production must be considered to deliver an appropriate energy system. The House Of Jax has been working on these solutions for many years to develop real boots (or heels!) on the ground knowledge. Give us a shout for your next outdoor festival or Pride March float!

*New to our inventory for 2023 and our first LiFePO4 unit!* This beast is Rockpals' most powerful green/alternative energy power supply with a rating of 1300W (1254Wh, Surge 2000W) so it can charge high-power devices such as portable refrigerators or coffee makers besides low-power devices such as mobile phones and laptops. The generator also has a 12V regulated voltage to keep its output voltage steady, perfect for CPAP users.
NEW LITHIUM TECHNOLOGY: The Rockpals 1300W power station adopts the brand-new LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) technology which means that they're safer, and lithium iron phosphate batteries last up to 2000 Cycles at 80% depth of discharge, providing at least 5 times longer lifespan, higher energy density, more stable performance, and greater output than other types of batteries or second-hand batteries.
