I'm looking for a portable power pack. Basically, it's a smallish portable
battery that supplies you with power anywhere you go (ie. off grid, camping, etc.). You can plug in lights, small appliances, electronic devices/phones/cameras, etc).

Here's an example of what I want but I can't find this sold in Korea:
http://www.duracellpower.com/portable-power/power-packs/powerpack-600.aspx

*note* it has to have AC plugs on it. The Duracell one has 2 AC plugs (built-in power inverter DC to AC). I'm assuming if any are sold in korea, it would be the korean plugs on them.

Maybe there's some korean brand that makes a power pack of their own?
Would be helpful to know. To order these internationally and ship it to korea costs around $150 to $200 shipping since they generally weight 20+ pounds.

Even though I'm not guaranteeing this is the best deal, but the ones with embedded AC outlet are relatively scarce. You'd probably know that already.
So, this might as well be the cheapest model you could find online. I'm referring to BM-AD18 model, not the BM-DD18 which is DC-output-only. Recommended max output is 150W.

The next cheapest with AC output, which I did not link, supports up to 300W but you'd be paying over 330k Won for its capacity.

You'd be far better off going over to Yongsan (basement below seon-in plaza) and getting a 600 watt inverter (--image http://promariner.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/True_Power_600.jpg ) then go out and get a wet-cell battery (small car-battery or a motorcycle battery) to match your perceived needs in terms of capacity.

It's not an all-in-one but it is compact and much more affordable.
