Not sure I'd trust a something that looks a bit like a $99 Harbor Freight welder. You can buy a Victron MultiPlus 3000VA charger inverter and a 230AH or larger LFP battery for the same price... at least with that you would get Victron reliability as well as their famous boost feature so you can run bigger loads on smaller shore power circuits. That said, it is a neat idea and very compact... it's a shame it requires external chargers and that it's output is so low.
It really does feel like a high quality product! I'm pretty sure most of the portable power stations shells are made of plastic, so I appreciate that they use metal. I would compare something like this to other portable power stations such as Jackery, EcoFlow, Bluetti, etc. For dummies like me, it's easier & less complicated than getting a battery & an inverter but I can certainly understand that there are people who would prefer to do it that way 😊
Hopefully this can come in the future. I know they are adding more products to be sold in the USA. I believe this can be hooked up to an RV to be used an RV battery but I will have to find out and include that in my follow-up video! Thanks for the comment!
This makes no sense weight wise. The extender chip + Batteries for 40WH for Jackey is 42 pounds using LiFePO4.... How did this company get 3000WH at 50.7lb? That is 10 pounds less per wh and that is ignoring all internals and such.... Something does not make sense at all......
I have a Jackery, and its efficiency could be significantly improved, but it hasn't been. Many brands could significantly improve their efficiency, but they will make money by selling you an expansion pack.
I sent the brand a screenshot of your comment and here is their reply, "The energy density of the lithium iron phosphate battery can reach 180 wh / kg, which is 81.82 wh / lb. Our 3000wh battery itself weighs 36.67 pounds, and the remaining 14 pounds includes our battery casing (which has the same material as the aircraft structure, anodized aluminum oxide as a casing, which weighs only 7 pounds and the inverter about 4 pounds). Other things, such as BMSs, make up our mobile power supply, as you can see. 72% of the weight of our mobile power is battery, so this power supply has super-high structural efficiency, and we use rocket- and aircraft-like design concepts to minimize unnecessary parts and structural weight. This is the basic design concept of our power supply, so it has a much higher energy density than ordinary power supplies, and it will be even more amazing if you consider the effective output conversion rate, which is no energy loss due to the direct output of the battery. Compared to the results obtained by using refrigerator tests, the EcoFowl high energy efficiency is close to 50%. In this calculation, our effective utilization rate per unit volume is 6-7 times higher, and the energy utilization rate for unit weight is also 3-4 times higher."
@@MikeTrachtenberg lol.. they will make more monies selling these "amazing batteries" to others than powerstations. why didnt you even test the capacity for the claim 3000wh.....
The pecron E3600 is a way better deal. 2400 watts of solar charging compared to 400 watts . 3072 wh battery expandable to 15kw. I could go on and on and they are the same price. It's a neat product but a 45 v limit on solar on a 3kw battery that's ridiculous. The pecron has 2 mppt's both rated for 150v each. Expandable bats have solar inputs as well. I like the metal on this and the weight but best deal nope! As far as camping this thing is out of control awesome. It's 50 lbs with 3000 wh's of storage and you can charge it via the car efficiently. I personally wouldn't use it in my home the solar kinda stinks but for camping its ideal. No one is carrying a 100lb solar station in their jeep nor 2400 watts of solar panels. So depending on ones use case it could be really useful. Sorry for the rant. Lol
I hadnt heard of that one - looks very nice as well. Their website says it's 79lbs and it is larger but still a little smaller than the Jackery. I am looking forward to testing out the Comvolt with my 100w solar panel. Haven't tried it yet and now we're getting into the rainy season. Does look like great specs on the pecron. Thanks for sharing!
yeah wow still not realistic.. could get a much better performing inverter, much better performing standalone jump starter, and just a pile of AGM batteries to run your inverter that jump starting feature is a joke... id be surprised if it can do a 4cylinder gas engine with a dead battery forget about anything with a larger engine, forget about diesels, and forget about using it in winter conditions
$1,499 with my coupon code in the description! All the prices I put in my spreadsheet were based on the current price listed on the company's website. This one is currently listed as a sale price as well as both EcoFlows & the Bluetti! No matter which one you get, it's close enough to probably think about waiting for November sales!
We need more of this well made and not plastic case.
Exactly! It doesn't have the pretty colors but it is made of high quality material.

would be nice if they added a 30amp outlet for RVs

Tons of great info Very well done review!!
Thank you kindly!
in my area of the world we usualy test for ac hertz 50/60 dont want to destroy appliances due to not compatible
It sounds like you've got more knowledge in this area than I do! How would you test for that? Thank you!
@@MikeTrachtenberg multi meter it should be able to test it just search youtube some cheap one dont have freaquency test
Cool - I have a multimeter so maybe I'll incorporate that into my follow up video. Again, thank you!
hmm you can build a simpler 4000wh 12v lfp battery inverter for like 280 bucks if youre on the cheap
A lot of stuff can definitely be DIY'd for cheaper. Definitely not something a lot of people aren't looking to do but power to anyone who can 😊

I will see if I can figure out an answer for this!

The pecron charges faster but it is a bit bigger, so for RV and camping, I think this power station is a better choice.

Doll hairs
I'm hoping I'm not in a situation to test the jump starter but if I am, I'm hoping I'll have the mindset to record for the follow-up video lol
$999 and I'll buy it.
Let's hope for a nice black Friday sale 🤞🏼
Nice video about the power station. Tons of features.
Thanks for watching!
