Powkey Portable Power Station 200W, 146Wh Portable Solar Generator Battery Pack with 2 Pure Sine Wave AC Outlets/4 USB A/1 DC Port, Lithium Battery Backup Power Supply for Camping Travel Outdoor Home

I've purchased other solar generators, but this is my 2nd Powkey. This is very easy to use. And, With minimal direct sunlight I can connect the solar panel and it will begin charging. The panel also functions as my phone charger too. While camping, After I used it to inflate my 24 inch high Queen size air mattress I was able to charge multiple flashlight, fans, phones and speakers before I recharged the generator. Also, 2 years ago we were caught in a thunderstorm, my generator and panel got left out in the rain. I expected it to be ruined, but as of today I still use it when traveling. On a good sunny day my 40 watt panel charges the generator in about 6 to 7 hours. But the power cord will charge it in about 3 hours. I do recommend keeping the generator out of the direct sunlight because it will get very hot and power off while using it. After buying my 2nd one, my husband decided to buy 1 keep in each of our cars.

We purchased this to run a ceiling fan with a light in a gazebo that has no electricity. I honestly did not expect it to work but it is awesome and exceeded my expectations. I would absolutely recommend with no hesitation. It runs the fan and light (led) and recharges well! Note that we did put the solar panels on the top of the gazebo facing the sun. Very happy!!

After charging on the wall for 5 hours to full, we plugged in one led light. This battery lasted a little over 3 hours. One light, a led even. Not worth much if your camping. The solar panel? In full sun all day and it took the silly thing from flashing at 25% to flashing at 50%. Full sun on panel, battery itself in the shade. All. Day. Long. Not worth anything.

There was an issue with the first unit that arrived. But, as soon as I brought the issue to the attention of Amazon and Powkey, both companies jumped into action to make things right. I was offered 'Refund or Replace'. I chose 'Replace'. The replacement arrived in record time, and I am very happy with the replacement. The only reason I knocked it down a STAR is the fact that there was an issue with the first unit. If not for that, the unit does everything it was advertised to do. This is not a High Power unit, but it does what I need. I need power for a light, a fan, and a radio in my shed. 12VDC can do all of this very well. I tested the 120VAC, and it worked fine with a low wattage radio. I tested a high wattage flood light; it turned on, and it quickly shut down to prevent damage. For Low Power applications, this is a very nice package.

Great back up power supply, the solar panels come with a little controller panel with easy hook ups.

Good reliable product

This battery requires being manually turned on after fully loosing power and recharging. This is a bad feature for those wanting a 'set it and forget it' charging setup. The solar panel didn't come with any mounting hardware ether. Charging mechanism and battery do work as described. It is just not going to be the best setup for everyone.

So small to give out great service
