Each expansion battery will accept 1000W solar input. So if there is a need to add aditional capacity beyond the 2.6kWh, the solar input will be increased as well.
Will you have a 220v system soon? ( 50 amps?) As others have mentioned, you really need that to run an off grid scenario. A well pump, (obviously important in off grid) and even a mini split a/c - heater would be super convenient. If you can do that I am definitely a customer!
That's a great feature of the Yoshino B4000 Solid State Battery Solar Power Station! If you're looking for a versatile and powerful option, you might also want to consider the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series. It has a massive capacity, powerful output, and fast recharging capabilities. Plus, it's built tough with a waterproof design. It could be a great addition to your outdoor adventures or as a backup power solution for your home.
Will you be bringing these to the UK?
Yes, it’s nice technology, but the prices are much higher for advantage! I would wait till prices come down.
Would love to see you hooked this up to your off-grid cabin, and put a nasty good load on it... I'd love to see a good hard field test of this thing
Some Well Pumps need a big surge on start up...if it were a 1/3hp, and but I think most are 220volt for 1/2hp and above... Will Yoshino ever have a larger unit some day, as for 220volt??? Thank you @Minute Man Prep for the content!!! We will be buying a piece of land to build an OFF-grid home soon!!! Liked#36 and subscribed!!!
I really like the Yoshino brand and battery chemistry used. But that 600W solar input is just brutal. Especially when you factor in the 4kW output load. It’s like using a Hydro flask for a fuel cell in a 68 Camaro.
Totally agree.
One day I would’ve liked to see you discuss the solid state battery 🪫. Thumbs up 👍
Solid-state or not, it's an NMC battery. I don't know how they're claiming 2,000 cycles to 80% DoD, but I'm most certainly NOT convinced this will be the battery tech of the future. NMC has two different materials (nickel and cobalt) that are either difficult to source or come with pretty serious socio-economic concerns. LFP, and at least two derivates, along with sodium-ion, all have a much more sustainable and conscionable supply chain.
Also watch the Will Prowse video where he repeats the oft-shown safety video of drilling into the battery and seeing nothing happen, so it's "safe".
Then he pulls the bit back out, and nearly has one of his crocs permanenty affixed.
@@michaelmartin9022 ... Cool. Link? Been in DIY WPs channel. Never saw that one.
Very tempting. Looking forward to a real world test of the B4000 with one of the expansion modules attached!
I like this because I am NOT a solar person on my RV. I am always looking at size and height and power for just a one night stay at harvest host. It will be charged by an outlet at next campsite. This looks interesting for one night stay. At this low height of battery even 2 might work. Thanks.
Wish you would have went into the advantages of solid state batteries and how they differ from LFP and LiOn batteries. Glad you mentioned charge cycle life.
Love the size
Love the warranty I'd like to see if you could wire two together to create 240/2phase
Yeah, the solar input is a deal breaker for me. Going with the Delta Pro Ultra. Maybe Yoshino will fix this in the next version.
Nice video, I have been reading up on the solid state chemistry and it looks promising, however, in this unit, the PV input is lacking in several areas; it needs to be able to accept 100 volts and at least 20 amps to be able to configure solar arrays easily. It is too hard to shoehorn in 600 watts being restricted to 60 volts and/or 10 amps.
Many other companies are going to 100 volts and 10 to 30 amps range, that makes it easy to get to 1000 watts in multiple configurations.
Keep going with new ideas and technology as it adds more options, Thank You!
I almost bought one today but I need to wait to run a well pump.
Could you open the shell and show us what kind of cells does it use?
Is this a feasable workaround for only 600w solar input? Say you have 2000-2500w of solar. Couldn't you use say a 2500 or 3000w inverter and plug the ac fast wall charger into it? Yes inefficiencies but doable?
This might be an entry-level get by situation for my off-grid cabin, the major load being a refrigerator, 4.4 ft. The rest of it would be lighting. I agree that the 5-year warranty is a significant draw.
Once I get comfortable with these power I would probably get the APOLLO.
1:29 when you say "first things first" please start with the price. ... "For $X,000 (MSRP as of [date]) you get..."
Looking for a power generator, which one is the best in your opinion? Delta Pro, Apollo, or Yoshino. I'm looking for power and portability. Thanks
What is the temperature charging and discharge range?..... I saw your first video at show got excited about this cuz you told them to increase the MPPT ..... but I guess they don't listen to the market or heavy users like you or Will.... I bought Pecron E2000 plus 3kw battery to get 5KW for $2100 before tax and shipping but it has 1300w solar on E2000 and 400w on extra battery..... would have bought this if MPPT was bigger and price about $2300
Does it charge faster compare to lithium?
Hey there! I saw the "Energy" video, and it got me thinking about how important power is, especially when you're out camping or spending quality time with family. Have you checked out the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series? It's a versatile powerhouse that can keep your devices and appliances running for extended periods. Plus, it's built tough and even has waterproof technology. Definitely worth considering for outdoor enthusiasts like us!
My video on the Segway unit is coming out in the near future.
When are you gonna drop a vid for the zendure super base v
Needs 150 VOC solar input with at least 1000 watts to make sense in 2023. Also needs to support expansion.
Probably will purchase along with an expansion battery IF expansion battery can be charges with additional solar panels. Would work well in little Class C motorhome and give me portability for use in my other vehicles as well
Hi. Yes, the expansion battery will also have additional solar input.
Can you charge it with a 2000 Honda generator and how long would it take
I wish you had covered the smaller units as well…
If the Yoshino will run a small chest freezer, flatscreen tv & DVD player for 5 days or more, before needing a charge, I might consider getting one.
The cost might be a factor as well.
5yr warranty is decent.
How about calling it a "12 volt power socket" instead of "cigarette lighter port." 😉
Which specific solar generator models,
(when, in a completely off grid scenario,
and with only solar panels for power),
can be set, to AUTOMATICALLY
turn ON the AC outlet circuit,
when/once the battery has
sufficient charge needed
to create AC power?
None yet, it seems.
Oh well, never mind. Still prepared to pay a bit more to have the convenience of something all-in-one.
To pricey for me especially with such limited solar input
The weight...its half the weight of the Delta Pro....and half the size....Plus you can always help the solar out with a Generator run for short bit. I'm pretty much sold
Wow. What ebike do you have!!?
Great for boats. Need 240v in europe. Hope they come with a solution for that.
12-60 volts/ 600Watts is a little on the low side. I wonder why they decided on that solar max?
Cost and size
It’s only 50 amp hours?
Yea the solar input is the downer but still a good option in some ways.
A nice product where weight is a factor, but thinking about my parents possible use I think the Titan is better. Every product has its niche!
What is the AC recharging wattage and is it a justable?
Max is 1800W input and yes, it is adjustable through the app.
Only 600 watts solar input? To charge a 2611wh battery powering a 4000 watt inverter? Strange design decisions. It seems like they started out with the case(which does look slick), then decided what they could put into it. MPPT controller must have been last part of the design and that was all they could fit into it. No way for me...
How safe is this chemistry?
Extremely safe.
If the battery total wattage is 2600, what’s advantage of having 4000W inverter?
Things like microwaves use a high power, but you don't run them for long, I've got several batteries and the biggest issue is power output, rather than capacity.
So what’s the Sell Kemistry of a their Battery?? Solid State is not on the Periodik Table.
2800 dollars-maybe not just yet...
Thanks for the review... The solar charge voltage range is great, but the 600 watt solar limit is way too low. It should be able to charge in approx 2hours. The inability to combine to make 240vac is a huge loss. Additionally, the price point is nowhere near where I would want it to be. I could see a "small premium" for the 4000 watts continuous... but the price per watt-hr is nowhere near the competition. The "advertising" for Solid State Batteries doesn't mean much if the # of cycle in the lifetime can't exceed 3500.
Can it run while on an AC charge?
Yes
It looks like a Zendura
Capacity is in kwh not kw...
600 watts at 60 volts solar input just doesn't cut it.
Watt....???
Except for 400 watts larger inverter, not even close to specs of the Delta Pro's for solar input, watt hours, battery expandibility, and 240v when paired. Stop comparing to Delta Pros.
No testing ????? that was a let down.
If you clearly listion this guy saying b4000 watt inverter and 2611 and price almost 4200 Canadian dollars , how smart way this company making fool consumers . Go get 4000watt inverter pure shine just 200 to 300 dollars plus lithium 600 and get 2650 watt hour so under 1000 dollars and size and weight lesser
This is a very badly balanced Solar Power Station.
For a 4000 W inverter, it would require at least doubling the battery capacity from 2611 Wh to 5222 Wh and properly increasing the extremely undersized solar input from a miserable 600 W to at least 2500 W. Even if those modifications meant doubling the weight and the wheels underneath, it wouldn't matter.
You just glossed over expandability!!! What aren't you reporting?
It's a solar station well its supposed to be but yet another useless wall charger station. Very few companies get that for some reason. Sticking with my pecrons you can charge them via solar. I guess you could add battery's and wait 4 weeks for the sun to charge you up again. It's just beyond stupid at this point.
Terrible company.
