600Wh Portable Power Station with 100W Solar Panel, Folding Solar Board & Energy Storage Power Supply Generator for RV Camping, Outdoor Adventure, Emergency (Power Station & Solar Panel – Blue)
I brought this in the summer with a 100 watt solar panel – the idea was to charge it by solar and use it to recharge all of the battery kit , Drills , phones , cameras etc and be usefull for when im working at the end of the garden . I’m not using it for camping or much away from home
the kit is good and i have no issues with how it all operates but …
Charging with the solar panel – in the summer is an all day affair , if you can get it into full sun . however even the slightest shadow or it not being flat onto the sun cuts its charge down to 10% or less , so i have to constantly fuss with its every hour or so to get it just right .
charging drill batterys using the 240v socket really takes the charge down fast – you are taking solar to charging a 12V battery , converting that to 240V and the tool is converting that to 18V however ryobi do sell a charger with a 12v car lighter socket that works well and dosen’t drain the charge down .
Mains charger is good – i have only used it once as that was not the reason i brought the system , i would gestimate 4 or 5 hours to full charge .
for Solar charging i have even had to go to the extent of building a wheeled frame to make it easier to get it in the sun .
So in summary – its very good at what it does but solar charging at any other time but full sunny summer days is possible but painful
As with many items shipping from China, it took quite a while to arrive. I was offered a refund instead, but I held on…
It seems to be around the capacity stated, charges quickly with the supplied 100W charger, and discharges quietly unless you put a fair load on it. So far so good.
I’ll update if the batteries fail in short order.
Massively good value….
I found this powerstation quite good. Although the light was broken when I received it, the rest of the ports are in working order. I thought of returning it initially as I felt scammed when the light was not working. The seller would accept if I return it but the hassle of sending it back made me keep it. Somehow I’m glad I kept it as it’s working for my campervan, for charging of gadgets , cooler, and tv. Very handy.
It’s a great little unit powers anything under 600 watts so ideal for laptops and TV and lights etc will not run my 800 watt hover or kettle so get the next one up for that at 1000 watts this seller has that as well. Seller I found does his best to help you and would buy again from him despite the slight delay to supply line from China these days but they are nice people who help you
i had a problem with the delivery, that was quickly sorted. the unit is a great bit of kit. after charging i run my 50″ tv of it for a few hours and only lost 20%. i will be charging the unit by solar witch is very easy and straight forward. very compact and not as heavy as i thought it would be.

Looks good but failed to charge only after 4 weeks. Not impressed
Great storage and allows for high power usage. In this price range, fantastic product – need another 1 and the solar panel for the apocalypse now.
