BEAUDENS 384Wh/120000mAh Portable Power Station, LiFePO4 Backup Battery, 300W Pure Sine Wave AC Outlet, Solar Generator for CPAP Camping Emergency Outdoor (240Wh)

I recently received a Beaudens Portable Power Station, 240Wh. I was looking for an emergency power supply for my house in case we lost power, which seems to happen at least once per year. I wanted something that would give me power for myself and my wife’s computers and phones to start. It would be even better if it could backup other devices. I selected the Beaudens for several reasons. First, a friend of mine had the 160Wh version and really liked it. I also found a video review on YouTube that really pointed out the advantages of this particular brand.When I started opening the box I was impressed with the packaging. An outer box, and inner box and the Beaudens box. The final box had the unit, a variety of cables, all individually wrapped, a manual and a thankyou card. I was even more impressed because it came fully charged and I did not have to spend several hours in charging it. I decided to test it with a bunch of various devices at the same time. A HP laptop with an exhausted battery, a four AA battery charger, a battery flashlight and a Galaxy S7 phone.They all were charging at the same time. More than I expected from this device.I am very pleased especially with the 2,000 cycles and the new type of internal battery it contains. Next on my list will be a Beaudens Solar Panel so if we have an extended power outage we can charge the power station.

Had mine about a month now n is working goodSeller emailed me n said to run it down 2-3 times n charge it to make sure it works good, but never did cause on some power banks they say not to do it unless you can charge it right away, i cant charge it right away many times cause i am camping n only go into town about once a week n charge it then when i do n i dont have the solar panel yet to charge itSo i leave one bar which is 20% chargedThe total i paid for mine was 182 dillars after tax, well worth the rpice but mainly for usb devices to charge n not so mucj with a plug unless it doesnt draw much energy chargingMainly for small stuff, like cell phones, cam recorders, n like 8 inch nextbooksIf you got bigger devices to charge i would get a bigger one unless you get the solar panel for things like bigger nextbooks n small laptops c chargersIt takes about 6-7 hours to charge plug into a wall socket

Have not done a full discharge yet to test capacity, but as soon as voltage is applied to charger, the 12v output, inverter, and lamp all cut out. Would not have purchased if i knew this were the case; surprised since other beaudens battery packs do not cut out.Strangely, the USB ports, including the usb-c pd which does deliver 20V3A, work fine while charging.Appears to be built of 12x 32650 6250mAh lifepo4 cells.When charged at 16V or below, it consistently draws about 20W. Internally, 1.5A is going to the battery.When charged at 17V or higher, it consistently draws about 55W; internally 3.5A is going to the battery.Well priced and likely to keep for other purposes if capacity tests as advertised. If not, will lower review score and return.

Didn't even last 2 years. Junk.

I purchased two of these battery backup power stations with the BEAUDENS Solar Panel 100W. Both work great together! I love the quality of this device. Aluminum housing and tough connectors. Simple design that I hope lasts for years! Looks like it will. I also love the specs on the battery too. Exciting. Thank you Beaudens for a quality device. PS: I used the device last week when our power was out temporarily during a storm. It powered our big screen tv, wifi router, and a fan no problem. Ate thru the battery pretty quick with the TV though.

Got it yesterday. Immediately noticed was not new (used/open box item). Product description never mentioned it. Also, product manual came incomplete (missing pages). I will test this unit but I'm already half disappointed. 30 days return window is on. Not a happy camper...

Serves my current purposes while my house is off-grid, the longevity and high recharge cycles should give it a long and useful life. My first unit appeared to be a return, but I have no issues with the one I have now.

The media could not be loaded.  Bought this on May 28, 2020. It’s only been over two months and the battery went dead or the charging circuit is faulty. See the video attached.I’m only been using it for a few dozen cycles inside my house, didn’t even use it outdoors.I originally picked this Powerstation because of the longer lasting LiFePO4 battery, but didn’t expect it to die after only 2 months. Would appreciate a refund.
