Photo Booth Power Station Calculator (2025)

Easily Calculate Your Photo Booth's Power Needs

Running a successful photo booth at events often means operating away from convenient wall outlets. Whether you're at an outdoor wedding, a large corporate function, or a party in a unique venue, having a reliable portable power station is essential. But how do you choose the right size? Guessing can lead to buying a unit that's too small (risking shutdown mid-event!) or unnecessarily heavy and expensive.

Stop guessing! This photo booth power calculator helps you accurately estimate your energy requirements. Simply input the equipment you'll be using – like your camera, lights (LEDs, strobes), tablet/laptop, and printer – and we'll calculate the power consumption (in Watts) for your desired runtime!

Our tool will estimate the total Watt-hours (Wh) your setup requires. Understanding your specific power needs is the first step to selecting the perfect battery pack or power station that keeps your booth running smoothly for the entire event.

Use the calculator below to get started! Based on your results, we'll also provide recommendations for suitable power stations.
