I always hate when people complain about that percentage increments. It's not a big deal at all no one spends that much time looking at it. If you get to 20% simply charge it. When I had my eb55 I rarely looked at it.
Someone else said it cannot output DC while charging, if that's true it's strange. Can you run your 12v cooler while charging? Those coolers need to be running all the time.
The USB-C 100W port is a duel port. IT can be used to charge a device, and it can be used to charge the EB55 with a USB-C 60 Watt wall charger. In fact the EB55 can be charged 3 ways at the same time using the Solar port, barrel wall plug port and the USB-C port for fast charging.
Thank you for sharing your insights! It's great to know that the Bluetti EB55 Power Station has multiple charging options and the USB-C port can be used for fast charging. It sounds like a versatile power station. Speaking of which, have you checked out the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series? It offers massive capacity, fast recharging, and comprehensive protection. It might be worth considering for your outdoor adventures and backup power needs!
I bought this unit last year. The wireless charging feature worked the 1st 2 or 3 times I used it but after that it completely stopped. Other than that issue I do love the unit .
The wireless pad on these is a bit wonky. Mine still works but it’s like you have to find the sweet spot and then it will start charging and then I’ll check minutes later and it would have stopped charging.

What water pump/gallon are you using? Currently looking to invest in one for camping but don’t want to break the bank and noticed thhe blue one you had at the beginning of the video
It’s a shower from Amazon👍🏼 and the water container is just from the Walmart camping dept. innhom Portable Shower Outdoor... www.amazon.com/dp/B07WGMDBDF?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
That Mark 2 would have been a game changer if you could charge it thru solar panels. It would pose problems if I am out for two nights. It will be just dead weight after the 1st night.
@@justmeonlyme okay the technology, charging, watts etc is irrelevant to what we are talking about. We are talking about not having a exact battery %.. I’m sure all the other charging stations have that same technology (more or less) yet they do have a exact battery %.
@@OverlandNomad I basically just need one to use while I inflate my air mattress and the charge my cell phone and GoPro batteries would you recommend that one or a different size
@@BlueLines50 not sure how much amp draws the pump but shouldn’t be much. Perfect to recharge electronics all day. Just can’t handle big stuff like, let’s say, a hair dryer or an air fryer. This is a very common size of power station that people usually get
We've had power bricks since xbox 360, rly not too worried about that. What Im trying to figure out is what station would I need to power a 30w lcd tv and a 150w ps4 slim for about 3 hrs. thats it... i do not know why it is so hard for me to find this information.... does no one else play games when they are out on the road?
Just add it all up to see which one would support it. The other guy that commented did the work for you. You had all the measurements. All you had to do was plug them in
I would have purchased an EB55 if it had the option to connect an extra battery to increase the capacity. I ended up getting the River Pro which is pretty awesome.
Just keep in mind that the River Pro uses a Lithium-ion battery with a rated 800 charge cycles while maintaining 80%+ max charge while the EB55 uses LiFePo4 which allows for 2500 charge cycles.
@@truesight91 it’s over 3x so if the River Pro lasts 2-4 years, with the same usage the EB55 should last 6-12 years. Also keep in mind that it will hold more of a charge after repeated cycles.

Why don't tou have it anymore?
Would you like a watch that only gave you 15 minute increments? Thought so.

It does charge fast compared to jackery 500 and 1000

Which cooler is that?

Just a heads up! You're on ECO Mode, you can turn off eco & change to 60 Hz more power, read manual how to!
Thanks for that William!

Bien hecho!

Can’t you connect this brand together for more power?
Does your vehicle show the gas level in EXACT numbers ?
No, but all my other power stations do
Almost every other power station out there has an exact % amount. Would you like your phone to not have that?

pretty fast charging compared to a Jackery....
nice review I was actually thinking of purchasing that same one 👍
Thanks!! Great power station for sure!

30 W + 150 W = 180 W; 180 W @ 3 hr = 3 * 180 = 520 Wh; your chosen power source must have at least 520 Wh capacity.

but u dont carry your xbox 360 everywhere. haul it around etc.
Why go camping if you want all the stuff to bring from home makes no damn sense. Buy an RV and go glamping
Bro how many power stations do you have now? 🤣
They’re for testing purposes😅
I love my EB55

@@yoleto Whats that roughly 2 - 4 years of use vs 6 - 8? charging once every other day?
@@truesight91 Yeah something like that 👍🏾
@@truesight91 it’s over 3x so if the River Pro lasts 2-4 years, with the same usage the EB55 should last 6-12 years. Also keep in mind that it will hold more of a charge after repeated cycles.
You can charge it through the cigarette plug while using it yes? Isn't that the same as a second battery?
