It needs to be connected by Bluetooth to connect with the app. Set it up and named it then started the update. Seems a little slow for about the first 40% or 50% of update but then finishes quickly, it restarted to finish update. But it seems that doing the update resets it so had to rename it again. But then I noticed while doing the update it popped the 20 amp breaker. Reset the breaker after the update and it seems to be working ok. Not sure why it blew the breaker. I had bought three of these at the same time and by the time I got to the other two they had fully charged and I unplugged them then did the firmware update without any problems. Used the app to try to see if a reason why the first one popped the breaker but nothing to indicate any problem. Plugged it in to be a backup supply for my chest freezer. Seems the freezer draws about 80 watts when running so using the app I sent charging wattage for 1,000 watts at slow normal charge (was already set at that slow charge). Saw it could be set for wifi and not need to use Bluetooth so set it for that. These will be used as backup supplies for my fridge and freezer... I live in Florida and it's not unusual to lose power for a few minutes several times a day. If don't have battery backup on stuff then things like computers, modems and routers all need to be reconnected which is why all that stuff is battery on backup. Now with these I can have my fridge and freezer on battery backup too. And already did it's backup thing several times in the last couple of days. Review: Do NOT buy the panel. - Nice backup for charging phones in an outage, but the solar panels it comes bundled with are terrible. We're in LA, it's hot as anything right now with a blazing sun -and the unit says it'll charge to 100% in 45 days. ## Features - Longer Runtime for 35-Hr Fridge Backup：Powered by OptiSave technology, this 2kWh power station runs 20% longer, delivering 35 hours of fridge backup. Your food stays fresh, anytime. - 2kWh of Power, 1kWh of Space: Integrated with all-in-one mainboard design, this 2kWh home backup battery is significantly smaller and lighter than the industry average. - Industrial-grade LFP Cells with 15-Year Lifespan: Powered by upgraded LFP cells, delivering a 15-year lifespan and 10,000 cycles —double the life of standard LFP batteries. - Powers 99% of Home Essentials: With a rated power of 1,500W and a peak power of 3,000W, it provides reliable energy for nearly all essential appliances while keeping your devices safe. - Best Value in Class: Get double the backup of typical 1kWh units at less than twice the investment.
