The Lowdown
The BougeRV JuiceGo is a smaller portable battery solution that packs a punch. I love having the option not to carry a larger, much heavier battery but still keep devices charged during a camping weekend. The carry handle makes it easy to move around, and the limited number of ports is perfect for its intended purpose.
Overall
Pros
- Small size with plenty of power
- Simple to use
- Plenty of charging ports
Cons
We’ve reviewed many portable power stations at Gear Diary, and they usually fall into two basic sizes: small and easily portable to use with mobile devices while you’re out and about or much larger and heavier but suitable for off-grid use while camping or at home when power outages strike. The BougeRV JuiceGo 240Wh Portable Power Station I’ve been sent to test is an in-between-sized option that might hit the sweet spot for many campers who don’t want to lug a larger power source. Let’s take a look!
The Bouge RV JuiceGo is a unique product that offers many battery capabilities in a relatively small size. It weighs only 6.28 lbs and measures 10.24″ x 6.69″, making it ultra portable. It has a car charging cable and a USB-C to USB-C charger cable.

With a capacity of 240Wh, there is plenty of power to keep devices charged while camping or having an outdoor adventure. The carry handle makes it easy to haul around and fit easily in a backpack.
The front of the BougeRV JuiceGo includes four ports: one USB-C1 100W max, one USB-C2 30W max, and one USB-A1 18W max round out the USB charging options. The battery is charged through the 300W USB-C port or the car charger. There is also a 130W DC car charging port.
The BougeRV JuiceGo also includes a bright LED with multiple brightness settings, which is excellent for campers.
The back of the device includes a single 150W AC plug. With the world going to USB charging options, having one AC port is nice, but having more would be overkill for me.
The small screen on top of the BougeRV JuiceGo provides all the information needed to monitor the device. The battery percentage is displayed largely, with input and output wattage at the bottom. It’s no-nonsense, with all the information needed.
The BougeRV JuiceGo is a smaller portable battery solution that packs a punch. I love having the option not to carry a larger, much heavier battery but still keep devices charged during a camping weekend. The carry handle makes it easy to move around, and the limited number of ports is perfect for its intended purpose.
I didn’t realize how much I needed an in-between-sized battery like this until I tried it out!
