   Works great, small and runs out of power in a couple hours

   Pros: Nice and compact and not too heavy. It uses 12.8V 18Ah LiFePO4 batteries which has more charge cycle than the NMC battery and it is also a safer too. The AC output Voltage is 110 Vac and it does maintain at this Voltage level with 250W load, most other brands the output Voltage will drop down to lower level. It has a good display and is easy to read. It has two USB A (5V 3A) outputs, and one USB C (100W) output which is more than enough to run small lap top. It has non-regulated 10- 14.2V 120W cigarette output. It has non-regulated 10- 14.2V 120W 5521 Dc output. It has nice and bright diffused lights on the back which is really good. It comes with all the cables for charging from the car or from the solar panel (MC4 connector). It comes with 12V dc 5A (60W) Ac adapter for charging the unit. It has pass through charging, which I verify but in one page of the user manual it says not to have AC load running while charging, so that is a very confusing statement. The AC output is pure sine wave and the wave form does not change when I have 250W load running. Battery capacity test with AC load, 80W, comes out to be at 188Wh, about 80% which is acceptable. Cons: It only has 230Wh of battery capacity, I wished it is 300Wh or more to get more run time from it but then the price will go up. Notes: you can use 12.8V LiFePO4 with higher capacity feeding the DC input to extend the run time. It has hibernation mode that will shut down the power if the load is less than 5W after 8 hours, I wished it would let you turn the hibernation mode off if needed. Over all it is not a bad little unit for running small loads while camping. It was on sale for $99 so that is a really good deal for a power station with its features.

   When the subject of power stations comes up, it’s important to introduce “what do you need one for?” into the conversation. If it’s back-up energy, or to use on a long camping trip, the best advice is “get as much power as you can afford.” But not everyone is looking for emergency power, or two weeks in an RV. This Grecell 300W fills the simpler needs, and it does it well. It will handle an appliance up to 300 watts (it’s advertised as 600 watts peak) with a continuous run time of 240 watt hours. You’re not going to be able to use that with anything that heats (usually), has a motor, a compressor, or other high-energy devices. BUT… it can recharge a lap-top, cell-phone, power an LED TV, and anything else that doesn’t use more than 300 watts, including a wi-fi router. I recently received a heated massage device and was surprised it was only 25 watts. The Grecell is great for this, I don’t have to be near an outlet or get an extension cord. You may also use it for a short time for electric blankets or heated throws, either 12v or 110 ac. I don’t know that I would have paid full price for it, but with the discounted price it is well worth having. The built-in light is cool, too. I’m pleased with this device. If you’re considering it, and it’s still on sale, don’t hesitate. You’ll find a use for it. Oh, and anytime you’re considering this or any power station, bone up on the math of wattage. That will guide you well!

   This was probably one of the most sturdy and strongest power banks that I’ve ever received. But upon receiving it, when I went to plug it in to charge it. The item, which is the powerbank, would not accept a charge from the power cord. I got in touch with the company right away. Even though there’s no returns in this item, they allowed me to return it. For some reason in the tugapower.net website, it doesn’t show where it is in the system. But I keep track of it by the tracking number and I can tell when it actually reaches the tugapower.net return facility and then I can always chat with somebody on customer service and ask them what’s up with my return. Because to be honest with you, I really want another one. But i’m not sure if it’s the actual unit that’s bad or if it’s just the power cord. So when it’s all said and done, i’m gonna purchase another one.Hopefully I’ll get a discount

   This thing is extremely handy. Used it every single night for the past month powering Halloween decorations in our backyard. Will charge from 2% to 100% in about 25 minutes if you have the right 100 watt charger and cable. Very convenient.

   I’ve had a few portable batteries and this one is the best yet. It charges quickly, has Lippo batteries and has a nice graphical user interface. I like the features such as the nice grab handle and USB C port. I wish it had more than one USB C port and I wish it had more than one input for solar charging but I can’t complain based on the price I paid.

   Charge stays a very long time when not used. And is ready to work when needed. I did charge 2 phones and used a lamp all together and it seems to drain fairly quick.

   I have to say that I will probably never put this power charger through super heavy use and test its true capabilities, but I am very pleased with it for my needs. I bought it to power 2 iPads that will be on with brightness high and online, for about 12 hours at the same time. I just didn’t want to even have to think about power issues. When I got the unit it was at 50% power. I plugged it in to charge with the wall charger only. Not sure exactly how long it took to get to 100%, but when I checked about 2 hours later it was full. After a full 12 hours of use with both iPads, the unit was at 80%. The iPads were plugged into the charger the whole day and stayed at 100%. I never noticed any heat, nor did I hear a fan. It might have run at some point, but I never heard it. I think this power station is exactly what it is stated to be. Ran perfectly. Great bright display that can be turned off.. Very portable. Reasonable charging speed with only the wall adapter. I caught the Grecell 300 when it had a coupon offer. I paid $115. Really a great value to never have to think about running out of power.
