BEAUDENS Portable Power Station 166Wh/52000mAh Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Solar Generator, 2000 Cycles, 230V AC and 3 USB Ports, for Outdoors Camping Travel Fishing Emergency Power Supply Backup

At first I was unsure of the description MPPT solar controllers on their own are quite expensive. So I thought it may be a PWM. However it's not it's definitely an MPPT and that's fantastic. It means the optimal charge rate from a solar panel even when the sunlight reduces. The build quality seems excellent with an aluminium body, it would have been nice to have a USB C but the smart charging USB port goes a long way to over come this. The two negatives I'm not struck on were the import port for charging being right next to the output ports. It's clearly labelled but I bet someone will try to use the wrong port at some point as they are the same connector. For me this isn't a big issue but just occurred to me to mention. The only other negative is the screen and charge read out, it's ok but would have preferred a percentage charge readout rather than 5 blocks. Over all the unit is excellent and those negatives are that big for me to drop a star from the rating. I have used it to charge 6s lipo batteries via the DC out. It will happily fully charge 6 X 6s 1100mah, I charged 4A. You can't go above 4.3 amps charging 6s as the 12v DC out is looking limited to 10A and the charger needs to step the voltage up. However this was the hardest test I could think of to apply constant load and it did extremely well. The unit apparently will automatically cut off when the voltage drops too low to protect against over discharge. This must be below 10V as I set a 10V limit on the my charger and I hit that before the unit cut off. That does seem low for a lipo but I'm not familiar with LifePO4 batteries so I would assume it's fine. It's 2000 cycle life battery so I'm ok if it shortens the life by a few cycles. Finally, at the price it's way better than I was expecting and the MPPT controller in this price range is such a nice surprise. Non of the point about are enough to make me drop a start they are more be aware. So top product Beaudens!

I saw this product reviewed on YouTube by camper van enthusiast, I though it was great, so much so that I have bought one. This is a must have if like me you have a Day Van, Camper etc. Connectivity & battery life is great, have mine connected to the solar panel on the roof, just remember, this will not charge your washing machine, but is fabulous for phones, laptops & small electrical appliances. Also we recently had a power cut and this little unit ran a Microsoft surface pro, iPad along with changing a phone with no effort at all. Definitely recommend & wouldn’t be without it.

Been watching this item for a while but a deal finally came up I couldn't resist. I didn't get it from Amazon direct but a seller through Amazon, China based but shipped from Oldham and arrived in 2 days👍👍 The unit is great, small, lightweight and very well made. The orientation of the 3-pin socket means if you have an adapter that drops down, it doesn't affect it, also the USB ports are not blocked but the plug like with another power station I have. It comes with a 3-pin charger, car charger, 12V adapter to charge mobile devices and a solar panel cable adapter so it can be charged by the sun. Check my video to show it powering the TV, bit I'll be using it to charge my MacBook whilst out of the house. Very happy with it👍👍

I rate this generator highly. I've been using it to charge things for a few weeks now and find it works very well indeed. It looks great and is obviously well made and rugged - feels like it will last. Pound for Watt Hour it's one of the most economical power stations out there - probably best value if you disregard some very fragile ones. It allows charge-through, which many of these don't, so you can draw power from it while it's charging from solar. If a power generator can't do this I think it limits it's use considerably. Downsides - there aren't many, but I'd like a better screen - just showing bars for remaining power seems very basic - prefer a percentage or watt hours remaining. Built to cost I guess. My biggest issue is that it emits a horrible ear splitting alarm when it runs out of power. I guess this is for CPAP users, but given its low power rating I doubt it's much use for CPAP. This is otherwise pretty horrible and rules out one of my prime uses for it - powering a fridge at night when I'm camping. There's no point in waking me to say that the fridge has no power since there's nothing I can do about it - you don't appear to be able to turn this awful feature off. Otherwise, it's brilliant.
