500W Portable Power Bank/Station, 296Wh Outdoor Solar Generator Backup Battery Pack with 110V/500W AC Outlet for Home Use, Emergency Outage, Camping Travel, RV Trip

*Update 6-21-23: This Power Station has yet to have ANY issues !! Still worth EVERY penny I paid and NOW they OFFER THIS EVEN LOWER THAN i PAID. This was my 1st ps and yet I had major issues w/ 2 so-called BIG names that needed replacements. NOT this 500 ! I still use this DAILY; I charge using the HOT, direct Fl. SUN outside; it works. I TRUST IT every day to do its jobs. It does !! Take advantage of the coupon & enjoy the watts you save. Don't forget..IT'S VERY LIGHT WEIGHT. Thanks for reading, DON T**Oct 26, 2022: I purchased this POWER S. 1 yr. ago TODAY-got it sooner than expected. I use this EVERY DAY as an alternative FREE electricity to power my instruments-as shown. I LOVE THIS ! This usage adds up to saving kw hours off my main electric bill. Of course, like everything else, my FP&L has gone up yet, I'm not paying 1 cent for what I use to play my instruments !! That to me is: One small victory for the common man/woman !! Today the price is GREAT especially w/ the coupon So my suggestion DO NOT HESITATE & start shaving off kw hours off your electric. PS I'm still recharging this by way of my 120w Panel. Take care & thanks for reading. Don1:10min in the AM then 2:25 straight last night b-4 I quit (I was out of gas) & it was only down to ONE BAR(PIP). THAT'S MORE THAN ENOUGH I would need if i was going to do an OUTDOORS Concert. I have NOT used the home A/C to charge this since I bought this 500W Power Station. + RIMCO 120wt Solar panel.We do NOT go camping (yet) I've been using this as a source for my music equipment in order to go & perform LIVE wherever there is NO A/C. I need to have my Yamaha keyboard; Multi channel Mixer; Vocal processor; light; Wireless Mic AND my Nano 300 PA w/ satellite speakers. Total wattage approx 95watts. Of course this will waver according to the volume I perform at yet, I've averaged approx 2 1/2 hrs and I still had ONE BAR on the power meter. I have yet to run it 'till it stopped. I plan to shortly-just for the final big test to see what happens.The Good: It's light & portable-NOT BULKY at all.It really seems sturdy--not some cheap plastic throw together piece of crap. What I LOVE is its ability to recharge MY CAR as I go about my errands; use the solar panel or use my home's A/C which I do NOT use--for that would defeat my purpose. Outside of the initial 1st charge out of the box-I have yet to even have a need to use my house current. I 'll have more pics on my setup soon.The only negative , if anyone really cares because I don't) is, it cannot be charged while being used. Like I typed earlier-I don't really care because the ''500'' fits so well in my car's passenger seat's floor, it's a no brainer to take along anywhere I go--just note it does NOT take hours to recharge the 500 while I drive. I've driven to stores 44 miles total (both ways) and I was thrilled to find ''her'' fully charged. My one & only regret is in NOT purchasing the added 146Wh Portable Laptop Charger-they offer together. It all depends on how long I care to perform (and the weather, of course).I Would buy this again and for the LOW COST as compared to all the others--I feel I made the right decision. You should NOT be disappointed either.I take a lot of pride in any review I offer ! Living on a Social-Security budget--I have to account for every nickel & dime. I know I made the right decision.PS They answered quite quickly any questions I had. That's mainly why I give this a 5-Star rating.These pics show the exact equipment powered w/ the 500. Just mentioning A NAME & NOT A PIC WOULD LEAVE ME WONDERING TOO. So, I hope these help to demonstrate how I use the 500 every day & night in the studio & soon, on the road. NOTE: this puts out a PURE SINE WAVE ! i HAVE NO DEVIATION in my playback of my equipment. Any questions ? I'll be glad to assist. Thanks for reading. Don

UPDATE 7/24 Still working well and was very glad to have this during an 18 hour long power outage one day. Ran my USB powered fans and charged phones. Light was extremely nice to have once it got dark.UPDATE: 7/26/23 Received the replacement unit today, have done a quick test on all but the DC 12v outlet (I don't anticipate needing it but will make sure it works when I get to my 12v fan.) Everything works as expected on preliminary check as far as power to the AC outlets and USB ports. Fan kicked in for awhile during use of USB to charge a phone. I have not charged it fully, but it arrived about 75% charged which is not an issue to use with this type of battery. It will get put to more heavy use beginning this weekend through the following 2 weeks. I'll update more as it's used and update to 5 stars if all remains well.The seller is very responsive to issues with this item.UPDATE: 7/21/23 I have decided to try another unit after the company reached out regarding the defective one. I need a power unit for a 2+ week road trip and am convinced to try again, as this one is a 500 watt unit and would be what I need. It is a great value if I have a working one. I'll be updating as I receive it, and as I am on my trip.Original review: It had about 3/4 charge upon arrival. Tested the outlets before charging fully. USB worked fine, display turned on as expected. Light worked well, very bright in all modes, solid, strobe, and slow flash. I was not able to test the car plug outlet. I tested the AC outlets, fan briefly came on both times I tested, using a small led desk lamp. Worked great. As I understand it, the fan cycles off and on as needed and I assume the short burst of fan powering up is just what it does when AC is powered on. Unplugged everything and put it on to charge via wall outlet. Once it was fully charged, I went through testing the same things again. All worked as before except this time the AC would not power up. Nothing. No display, no fan burst... absolutely dead. Tried various things like plugging in the little lamp before I powered on the AC, not plugging it in... nothing. It just would not work once the unit was fully charged. I believe I have seen other reviews with the same issue. It has already been returned after just receiving less than 24 hours ago. I opted for a refund, did not feel like spinning the roulette wheel on this one.

This worked very well for me the few times I had to pull it out for charging. I purchased this to run small electric lights in my car for a trunk or treat Oct 2022. I put it away and charged it to full to keep in case of power outages during the summer storms, winter blizzards. I plugged it in last night to charge due to the battery being dead and found this AM that it will not charge. I found the lighter charger and tried that, however the device will not charge at all. I am so disappointed. For the price, it's just not worth it if you can't count on it to recharge after less than a handful of times of use. I do not recommend it. I read through the reviews and saw mine is not the only one that has done this.

I normally use this at work when no power is available. It can power a laptop, USB powered fans and lights all night. Under heavy use (same as above, but add a Mantuole Heated Sleeping Bag pad for 4 hours and 1 meal using CHORHA Portable Electric Kettle) it lasted 9 hours. I'm satisifed with it's capacity.My only complaint, is sometimes the power button isn't responsive and it takes several attempts to turn on. It's never failed to turn on though. Overall? I'd purchase another, without question.

I love this , and I hyped it up so much to family and they can’t get one on Amazon. It lasts for hours. The reviews were 50/50 but mine works great and it’s so light to carry. Lights were out for 4 hours and I had tv to keep me company and still had half charge when lights came back on. Love it!
