- I have used this portable power station for a couple of weeks at my hunting lease, which is outdoors and without any shore power. I have been happy with the performance of this device, so let's take a look at it today.

Ohh SNAP! How sweet is that? Perfect for my vanlife. I love it 😍
Jason! That is a perfect size and design. I'll be curious to see it over time. Thanks for the video. 73 de Bill
5 year warranty. Not bad.
I just orderd one.
I think that's a pretty slick design!
Yeah it is
Thanks for the video! This device would be cool if it was priced right. There's 600wh solar generators on the market with 100w panels included in the $300 range. $500 for less in a larger footprint doesn't relaly appeal to me.
That's really slick. Can you plug additional panels into it?
There's a barrel port for DC In, so I guess you could add a panel there
i wounder if it would charge faster with both internal solar and external solar. put it buy a HF radio for RFI test on inverter. 73's
Hello
The 30w panel is a useless and expensive addition; it would take days to recharge the unit. Might make sense if the built in panel could input 100w. Until then a separate generator and panel best option.
It's not useless. If you are draining the battery every day, yeah you're gonna need more ways to recharge.
If you run it most of the way down. I wonder if you can use the input for solar to charge faster, or if the internal charge controller could handle it or use a separate charge controller.
Yah, the built-in 30W panel is fairly useless. A 30W panel in full sun might add 20% a day to the unit if one is willing to leave it out in the elements during the day. I suppose its fine in emergencies if there were nothing else. But that solar panel he has leaning against his trailer alone produces at least 15x the energy that the little 30W panel would. Probably more.
I like the concept, though. Having a small built-in solar panel is the ultimate fall-back case, and it might catch enough light sitting on a shelf to not self-discharge while it gathers dust.
The unit does seem a bit overpriced, though it isn't terrible compared to other power stations. I went through the manual, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it and I don't see any voltage specs for the DC input at all other than "connect to car to charge". Beyond the solar panel, it looks pretty basic.
That 30W panel is likely going to produce 20W when it heats up. Also one has to factor in charging efficiency which will likely be in the realm of 80%. Maybe if you leave it out in the sun for an entire week it will fully charge. :)
Much better off buying a more capable lighter unit for about the same price and buying a real solar panel that's at least 100W.
this man solars
spot on its useless panel and limited by the dumb barrel connectors on the input voltage and amps@@junkerzn7312
Good god. I can’t imagine how many days it’s going to take to charge that thing with those dinky little panels. They need to have additional panels that you can plug into it to charge faster. They should have just left the solar panels off…
First, you can plug-in extra panels.
Second, the built in panel is more for prolonging or maintaining the battery, after you charge it to max via AC then use it to recharge small electronics in the field.
No system is perfect
I wonder how well it would work for a POTA or Field Day power supply to run a 100 watt HF transceiver...
Systems like these aren't made to run 12v radios
Sir! can you use it while solar charging? What is your opinion on this? Looks like xbox the first xbox lol
Yes you can
I really like that!
Is it RF quiet? Can you run a radio off of it will using the solar panel and/or 120 volt outlet without RF noise??
Curious what the max input add on solar panel would be? They advertise their 120w. Would it take a 200w solar blanket with no problem? I dont see anywhere about max solar input.
There is nothing whatsoever in the manual that I can find on input voltage range so it is likely only able to take a 12V solar panel (roughly speaking, no more than 24V on the DC input). If even that. The only thing in the manual is "connect to car to charge".
@@junkerzn7312 Thanks. Kind of what I figured. I'm using Off Grid Trek 200w blankets. They really kick it but would probably be better to just use the usb-c output port from them to input into that unit. Always a work around. I'm an EcoFlow user and don't mix brands but that's a great grab and go unit for short hauls I must admit.
if its a barrel plug you have your answer less than 7-8 amps just on wire size
Pure sine ac
I want to buy one but for $500 + tax $540 at amazon too much
Just bought the green color on Amazon on sale $475 + tax $515
The solar panel is so small it's really worthless. It's a 30 watt panel, which is enough to charge your cell phone and that's about it. Shame, the design is cool, but if it's not at least 100 watts it's not going to do much good in the real world
Solar panel way too small toy for phone at best
That solar panel is worthless
It's not the greatest but it does work
@HamRadio2 well, it functions. I only used solar panels in Africa for cellphones
