PRODUCT INFORMATION
The products and materials described in this manual will be changed due to technical upgrades, we reserve the right to change the contents of this manual without informing you in advance. Congratulations on your power station purchase, a plug- and-play backup power integrates with solar regulating. storable energy system and cloud-based parental controis (Bluetooth app allows you to monitor solar charging at your figure-tips). With 288 watt-hours of power, you can keep your laptops, lights, and AC/DC appliances running longer. Welcome to the solar life.
Precautions before operating
- First, you need to ensure the power level of this power station is not too low before taking it outdoor. It is capable of charging and discharging at the same time, but solar charging is affected a lot by weather.
- Lion-batteries cycle life can extend a lot with proper handling and usage The most important note: you need to use it at room temperature: 0 – +40(°C)/32-104(°F) Do make sure to avoid a humid environment and do not store outside.
- Be sure the rated running power of your device is 5300W, and the peak power is <500W. In some cases, the instantaneous power of particular appliances is 3 times higher than their rated running power.
- It is normal for this unit to become warmer during charging/discharging. Please use it in a cool and well-ventilated place. (Keep it clear of naked flames, sparks, or conductive materials when charging the battery).
- Voltage and frequency from AC sources might vary from country to country (US/JP 110V 60Hz or EU/UK230V AU 240V 50Hz). Please follow the local regulations to choose the correct version before using it.

What’s included
Power Station
Charging your Power Station
Three charging methods: DC port. USB-C port, Anderson port Support DC port + USB-C port, or Anderson port + USB-C port to charge at the same time, the maximum input power is 140W…
Fully Charged Time
(Only for reference, take practicality as standard.)
Common variables that affect the performance of solar charging
Note: you can shorten the charging time by turning off the laptop.
The ideal time of day
- Panels operate with high efficiency when the sun is typically around mid-day.
Sunlight and its angle
- The brighter the sun is shining, and the clearer the day is, the better the panels will work. A south-facing panel angle at 30-60 degrees from a flat surface will harvest the solar energy.
Avoid any possible shelter
- Make sure your panels are free of shade, even minor or partial shading reduces yields. Additionally, any dirt accumulated might decrease the wattage over time, so periodically cleaning the panel is recommended.
Time of year
- The amount of daylight changes from season to season. But for temporary solar charging, it is essential to know that cold weather will not negatively affect the performance of the panels as they run on light, not heat.
Using Your Power Station to Power Devices
- 1 x USB-C: for smartphones, mini laptops equipped with PD fast charging standard, two-way PD out up to 100W.
-
Check compatibility
Before operating, please check the voltage, including the starting & running wattage of your load devices. If overloaded, it will disable AC outputting other than DC ports, by the advanced built-in system control circuit module. (Please re-plug in another lower AC device and restart it after 30-second intervals.) . -
Make sure the master is switched on.
For safety reasons, all USB, AC ports, and wireless charging are activated accordingly by a master power button. You can see the total output watts measurement on the LCD.
Turn off the master to stop the outing
To prevent energy loss, each time the outputting is finished, press the master button again to turn off the outing. and disconnect the load from the station.(especially for AC mode, press and hold for 3 seconds to exit the outing.)
Wireless Charging
- Output: DC5V1A at Max.
- Transmit distance: 5-8 mm
- Transmit conversion: ≥72%
- Charging frequency: 110-205 KHz
- Compatibility: it supports most smartphones that are equipped with QI standard technology or other Qi-enabled devices. For other devices, please pair with a QI receiver.
- In the case of certain phones(especially thicker ones), metal objects like metal phone cases and plates for magnetic attachment might interfere with wireless charging. Please remove it before charging.
- For best charging performance, your phone must always be placed at the center of the charging A area.
- During the charging time, the charging area might get warmer.
Reference Running Time for common appliances
- Different appliances require different working wattage, and if you plug in appliances that drain a high wattage (a refrigerator ), then the charging level of this unit can drop very quickly, and you may not get precisely 288 Wh energy. On the flipside, if you’re recharging devices that draw wattage slowly (a small TV), you will get closer to 288 hours from this unit.
Application Reference Time
Storage and Maintenance
- Suggest to fully charge it at least once every 90 days to maintain the best performance, reliability, and longevity.
- If outputting is done, please remember to turn off the master to save energy.
- Due to the chemical characteristics of the battery, the available capacity of the battery may somewhat vary from environment to environment such as cold weather or overheating (you may hear a cooling fan). So please always use it in room temperature (0°C- 40°C)also it is not recommended for outside storage or in a humid environment.
- If you are living off-grid in sub-zero conditions, we recommend you keep your unit in an insulated cooler and connect it to a power source(solar panels). The natural heat generated will keep battery capacity at its highest level.
- The battery packs inside are non-removable and disassembled, the life cycle for charge and discharge is over 800 times, but eventually, it will wear out.
- Continuously discharging the battery to 0% and then storing it with a low battery may reduce its serviceable life. Recommended to always keep it with at least 20% capacity unused.
Specifications
FAQ
-
Can I use the generator while it is recharging?
Yes, it is capable of outputting power while charging. -
How often does this have to be recharged when not in use?
We suggest recharging it via wall outlets at least once every 3 months. Or, a low battery might aggravate self-discharging problems, and the battery cycle life will be worn out sooner. -
What size of solar panel in watts will be the best panel to charge this unit?
It is recommended to choose a 100-140W solar panel to charge the power station, the charging time is about 4-5 hours (the charging time depends on the weather conditions). -
Can I board with this unit when traveling?
No, this product can only be shipped by freight or can be shipped by trucking to your destination, can not be shipped by civil flight. -
How do I know if my multiple devices will work with this unit or not?
Will it damage my devices if overloaded? First, you should check the amount of power your devices require, and make sure the total running wattage does not exceed the 300:15 W limits. Even if overloaded, it will disable AC outputting other than the DC ports, by the advanced built-in system control circuit module. (Please re-plug using another lower AC device and restart it after 1 minute.)
Disposal Guide
- If conditions permit, make sure that the battery is fully discharged before disposing it in a designated battery recycling bin. The product contains batteries with potentially dangerous chemicals, so it is strictly prohibited to dispose of it in ordinary trash cans. For more details, please follow the local laws and regulations on battery recycling and disposal.
- If the battery cannot be fully discharged due to a product failure, please do not dispose of the battery directly in the battery recycling box. In such a case, you should contact a professional battery recycling company for further processing.
