    Very nice compact unit. I am impressed that the fans ran so quietly. That's a nice feature when you're trying to get some rest.
    There are a lot of things you can do with 1000 watts of power.
    Just use high-power devices sparingly.
    I like this. I'd like to see how soon it recovers when it is connected to a solar array. Many people misunderstand solar power, and its many uses. Nice equipment like this is setting new standards.
    Kudos to the manufacturer.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series! I completely agree with you, it's impressive how compact and quiet the unit is. It's definitely a great feature for those moments when you need some rest. The recovery time when connected to a solar array is also something I'm curious about. It's great to see companies like Segway setting new standards with equipment like this. I highly recommend checking out their Cube Series if you're looking for reliable power on your outdoor adventures. Kudos to Segway for creating such a versatile and high-quality product!

    Getting back to the Licetti battery box, I still love this thing after a year of owning it❤ right now. I have it powering an overnight light downstairs, but it is capable of so much more. You can stack up to 4 batteries in parallel for 400 AH or buy 4 of them for 4 individual installations.🎉

    I posted a negative comment about not receiving my item in the time frame that I was promised. I since took that comment down after receiving my power box and I wanted to say how impressed I am with the build quality of this product.
    Even though it took longer than promised to receive, I would order this again if I needed another one and I do recommend this to anyone looking for a reasonably price solar generator.
    Just add your battery.
    Which I haven’t done yet. So, I actually haven’t tested it yet.
    I do have one question that maybe someone can answer, How do you change the batter type on the solar charge controller to lithium battery mode?
    No information was provided on the charge controller.

      @@BradCagle Lithium-ion batteries require a higher voltage than lead acid batteries to fully charge and a charger that charges at 14.4 - 14.8 Volts. So if not set to Lithium on the solar charger the battery will never fully charge. A user manual for the solar charger would be helpful.
      I was thinking of adding my own solar charger and use 200 to 300 watts of panels to charge the battery. With the built-in solar charger you are limited to about 100w of panels.

I was thinking about buying 2 LiTime Mini 12v 100Ah and sticking one in this box. If I bought a larger external MPPT charge controller, would it be possible to hook the 2nd battery to it along with some solar panels in the 300w-500w range and get faster charging of that external battery, then expand the box capability by connecting into it using the Anderson ports? If so, what should I expect in terms of the external battery and faster solar feeding the internal one? And could I also use the smaller solar input of the box to increase the charging rate even more? Thanks for considering this noob question.

Like I said I ordered one and they first said coming from LA but when I asked for a tracking # they slowly got back to me and now I asked them to be honest at least hearing from you and now them that yes it will ship from China and my expectations are then managed. I’m too use to Amazon Prime and this is not that but I am liking what I see and will not ask for a refund unless product is not good. You did an excellent job of taking it through its paces and for a 1000 watt gig as I’ve got the LiFePO 4 battery, it should work out nicely. I’m subscribing from and buying this because of you UA-cam fyi. So thx for responding and now my wait.

    These units seem to be a very a functional and cost effective solution to building your own battery box but just be aware that they charge $55 for 7 day UPS shipping but my order has been almost 10 days and have not even received notification that my order has even shipped, they will not respond to any emails and their online chat is ALWAYS offline. If you purchase from this Chinese company, make sure you use a method that will allow you to get your money back. Company seems a bit scammy, I would be a bit leery of this company, I'm not the only one posting about having issues with shipping and their customer support or lack there of.

      Thanks Brad, good luck getting an reply from these guys, I don't think they have a clue as to what "Customer Service" means or integrity for that matter. Really getting fed up with these Chinese companies promising stuff they know they aren't going to deliver. If it takes 30 days to ship and receive just say so, at least we would know what to expect. Instead they charge $55 for 7 days UPS shipping, say they have warehouses in the US and ignore all customer inquires.
      The sad part is I think I will probably like the unit and find it useful when I finally receive it but I will be hesitant to do any future business with them and probably not recommend them to others@@BradCagle
