FAQ

Q1: What is the maximum power output of the AC output ports?

The AC output ports can deliver a maximum of 6000W to connected devices. Each group of NEMA 5-20R AC Output Ports can deliver 2400W (120V/20A) of power.

Q2: What should I do when the AC output port fails?

If AC output does not work, check to see if the overcharge protection switch is switched on. If it is on, press down to reset and then continue working.

Q3: What should I do when using a solar charger to charge my power station?

The solar input supports an 11-60V solar charger with an XT-60 connector. If you use an 11-32V solar charger, the current supports 10A max. When you use a 32-60V solar charger, the current supports 25A max.

Q4: Can the USB-C ports charge the power station (input only), or are they

output only?

The USB-C ports support output only.

Q5: What should I do when AC recharging fails?

If AC recharging does not work, check if the overload protection switch is turned on. If it is on, press down to reset and then continue recharging.

Q7: Why is the power station not working after it hasn't been used for a

long time?

If the power station is stored at a low capacity for a long time, lithium batteries will self-consume power which may lead to a quick discharge. This often leads to poor conductivity and a reduced battery lifespan that causes the battery not to work.

Q8: How should I store and maintain the power station?

  1. Turn off the main power button. 2) Store the power station in a dry and cool environment. 3) Check the remaining battery capacity each week. If the battery level is below 30%, fully charge the power station. Do not forget to charge it to 100% once every 3 months.

Q9: How do I charge my electric vehicle via the power station?

Double-press the AC outlet button to activate EV mode charging. Make sure to set the charging rate of the EV charger to less than 25A to avoid overloading the output to your electric vehicle, such as a Tesla.
