The AC output ports can deliver a maximum of 6000W to connected devices.

Q2: 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.

Q3: Can the USB-C ports charge the power station (input only), or are they output only?

Q5: How do I reset my power station?

If your power station is not working correctly, insert a paper clip or pin into the reset hole for 1 second for a factory reset. If the power station still doesn’t work, please contact [email protected].

Q6: 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. Thioften leads to poor conductivity and a reduced battery lifespan that causes the battery not to work.

Q7: How should I store and maintain the power station?

When storing your power station, please make sure that you:

  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 10everyery 3 months.
