When you're working on location, reliable power can make or break your shoot. Whether you’re lighting a remote film set, running monitors on a rural photoshoot, or powering essential equipment where sockets simply don’t exist, portable power has become an essential part of modern production. At Kit Cabin, we specialise in sending fully charged, ready-to-use portable power stations anywhere in the country — giving crews dependable energy exactly where they need it.
These compact units offer a clean, quiet and travel-friendly alternative to traditional petrol generators, making remote shoots more efficient, more flexible and far easier to plan.
One of the biggest advantages of modern power stations is just how easily they can be shipped. Unlike generators, which are heavy, noisy and awkward to transport, portable units are cabin-safe, clean, and simple for us to send directly to your production hub, rural location or studio base.
This means you can arrive on site with power already sorted, rather than relying on whatever may or may not be available.
Portable power is ideal for running:
LED lighting setups
On-set monitors
Wireless video systems
Laptops and DIT equipment
Battery chargers
Small motion control rigs
Still photography lighting and accessories
Whether you’re shooting interviews in a field, content in a woodland or product shots in a warehouse with limited sockets, these units ensure your gear stays powered without interruption.
Generators are effective — but they’re also loud, require fuel, and pump out fumes. Portable power stations operate silently, making them perfect for:
Dialogue scenes
Nature filming
Indoor or enclosed locations
Live events
Corporate and branded content
No background hum, no exhaust, no restrictions.
The real magic of portable power stations is that they allow you to work exactly where the creative idea takes you, rather than being tied to the nearest plug.
Planning a shoot on a cliff top?
Running lights in the woods?
Need to power comms for an event site?
We can send you a unit that delivers stable, regulated power — wherever you are.
Most units recharge via mains, car adapters, or solar panels. For multi-day shoots, they provide a more sustainable, flexible and cost-effective solution compared to running a generator all day.
