About PGYOB 400W Portable Power Station
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
88% liked the sturdy construction
The quality of everything is far better than expected. The buttons have a nice feel to them and all of the charging ports appear to be high quality.
The entire unit is well assembled both outside and in.
88% liked the fuel efficiency
With a 100w portable solar panel, I can charge the power station in about 5-6 hours of good sunlight, making it functional for light camping with low power consumption at night.
87% found maintenance straightforward
After encountering some problems during use, I contacted the seller and found that the issue was caused by my improper operation. The seller provided specific operating precautions and the product worked perfectly. I appreciated the great customer service.
My additional questions were answered within a couple of hours, which resolved all my concerns.
When I run my outdoor fountain for 2-3 hours in the evening, the battery hardly drains.
77% were satisfied with the quiet operation, but 23% were bothered
I appreciate the low noise level of the fan, especially since I use it frequently to run my portable fridge at night.
The fan of this power station is quiet and turns off quickly.
I can hear the fan of the outdoor generator on most of the time, which is disturbing my sleep.
93% found it easy to transport, but 7% found it bulky
The outdoor generator is more portable than I initially thought due to its smaller size.
The power supply is small, portable, and can be placed in a travel backpack.
The outdoor generator's portability is limited by its size and weight, which is a function of its power.
92% appreciated the high power output, but 8% found it insufficient
The output power supports up to 400W/h and I can use it for most applications except for a hair dryer.
The solar panel has a high conversion rate and works even in low light.
On a sunny summer day, I got 55 W input.
My fully-charged unit's output AC voltage is 93.9 volts, which is not a standard voltage anywhere in the world, including the US.

89% appreciated the long runtime, but 11% found it limited
I hooked up the power station to a 24 inch heavy duty floor fan and it ran for 2 hours and 15 minutes before shutting down.
After recharging the unit, I ran 2 sets of USB powered fairy light curtains (500 LED) for 12 hours with only 20% capacity loss.
I suggest using a solar panel with higher voltage and current than the charger to reduce charging time.
I tested the battery by running an AC electric blanket on the lowest setting. It lasted for 5 hours before getting down to 2 bars.
90% found it easy to start up
The instructions are easy to understand with color diagrams.
The product quality exceeded my expectations.
93% found it resistant to various weather conditions, but 7% experienced issues
This product is a must-have for areas that experience frequent tropical storms and power failures.
The product is suitable for outdoor activities but sensitive to sunlight and moisture, so I need to be careful about exposing it to the elements.
During storms, our power gets knocked out.
