Not sure whether it was the winter and ice storm that landed on some parts of Texas that triggered the demand, but man, these two modern “generators” broke 2 million dollars in funding in a day.

This is not the company’s most successful campaign yet, though. The brand’s last product AC200 Portable Power Station ended up rolling in a cool 6.7 million dollars last year. Six point seven freaking million! And that was before people are reminded how important backup power is.
