I ordered two of the larger 630W/460Wh batteries and just received them, and opened one. It's solid. Heavy, has an all metal case, and is very well built, just like the smaller one I bought from them. I hooked it up to a kill-a-watt energy meter and a heater that pulls 600W, and it handled 600W no problem, which is more than I can say about another cheap brand Bluetti, which usually cuts out about 100-200W below the rated capacity. It only charges at 72W no matter what you use (AC, car adapter, or solar), and only has 1 of every output except USB-A. So one AC, one 12V DC jack, one USB-C, two USB-A, and one 12-26V DC input. That's it lol. But it seems to work well and it's about as heavy as my 500Wh Bluetti, so it seems reasonable that it's the full 460Wh it claims. Supports pass through charging, as you'd expect. VERY worth $135 in my opinion

Quote from coffeeduck :
when ordering "cheap chinese stuff" --- most people know what they're getting into. If you're complaining, you generally either won't buy or are attempting to warn others about the quality.

That said -- GENERAL ADVICE FOR POWER STATIONS:
1) Do NOT fully discharge.
2) Do NOT charge your devices while charging/solar charging (could lead to #1 happening)
3) Use USB chargers without data blockers at your own risk!*

*One of the no name brands I attempted to charge my android phone directly into power station and SOMEHOW this fries the chip for the entire USB panel. Power station still mostly works, but just NONE of the USB ports. It did not happen when I tried charging using a "data blocker" (usb device that blocks data and only allows power)

Less than 50cents a wh is good but.... just be careful. This is also ASSUMING that the battery really is LiFePO4. I suspect one of the power stations I purchased was NOT LiFePO4 but I'm not taking it apart to find out...........

Good luck! The warnings above are from trial and error on SEVERAL 'no name' brands that were marketed/advertised through shill deals. Hey, I get it. You're a website making money. So I get it. BUT - it still sucks when the item you get is subpar........ Warranties do not matter if there's no company backing it. "5 years warranty" LOL

Best of luck to all gamblers!

"Cheap Chinese stuff" is also in the over priced made in USA shit, you just don't know that's all . 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Let Us know if it's any good
Bad news. Looks practically new, but will not charge or turn on. Interestingly enough, it will flash the lights in unison and then in siccession as if its powering on when you plug in the charging cable and it seems to reset if you press the DC or AC button (lights turn off and on the instant you press and hold either button), but without it being plugged in neither of the two buttons for DC or AC seem to do anything.

The fight lights that flash when you first plug in the charger transition to a single blue LED flashing slowly, but after 24 hours it still only flashes the first LED and won't turn on.

I have emailed them.... unsure how lucky I'll be with a return/refund/replacement, but I'll report back when I have additional information.

All that said, power stations that are USED are always a gamble. As long as they attempt a realistic solution I'd try them again. See if they have actual Customer Service reps or merely a fly-by-night operation.

Can someone explain to me the 630W version is cheaper than the 580W one? It seems the 630W has more capt and should be costing higher. 🫣
Features. The 630 watt (the one I bought and arrived DOA) just has a single AC outlet, single DC, two USB-A and one USB-C.

The smaller capacity (still in stock) is 2x AC, 1x DC, 3x USB-A, 1x USB-C, Flashlight and 2x Wireless charging pads.

My unit arrived DOA, hopefully I can get something more like yours... like working. lol

Separate note - I honestly like the bare-bones-ness of it. Easier to store, transport, shove into a corner, strap down, etc.... just need it to work.

Hey battery experts, would you consider this a good deal?

I'm no expert but I did make a u-turn at Holiday Inn Express.

Price is right but I'd wait and buy from Amazon or Ebay for their Potential Problem Oversight.

As another data point, I got my 630W/460Wh today. Well packaged, looks new. Turned on, appears to have been shipped with around 50% charge. Tested the three usb ports, they work. 110v out also works. Charging it now with the wall charger. Looks and feels solid.

Ordered one just arrived. My was about 75% charged, both DC and AC charging works. Definitely worth the $115 if it last many years. The build in MPPT/PWM charger is probably 6A only, 72W/12V, so maximum 72W, suitable for 100W solar panel that usually supply less. The power adapter gets very warm. Manual states 18V solar so limited to 12V solar panel.

Any luck with warranty? I discharged my unit well below 20%, recharging it now. So far so good. Feels like a lottery though with the DoA counts.

500W/518wh orange unit on amazon (B0CF1Y9T3Z) has same design/ports as the first unit so I read the 9 reviews. One of them worked. the other 8 are not happy-- dead,1 star or gave more stars when the vendor eventually let them return it.

Thank you for your input. Wow I was kinda surprised on DOA issue with these units. These units shouldn't be selling in the 1st place wasting time on both side parties.

You don't even know what you are talking about! The point is, how many would obey the law? How effective is the law enforcement when there is corruption happening every corner. Indeed, China claims herself the most democratic state all over the world, LMAO!
I know precisely what I'm talking about. You, on the other hand, don't know what "lax" means nor realize that I was largely agreeing with the point you were clumsily making. Does it hurt to be stupid all of the time or only when you're attempting to think?

You clearly didn't even read my comment.

I mentioned QA and brand presence being a factor, but it's not a silver bullet.

How is it that you can believe that this magically makes a product less fallible?

Do you just turn a blind eye to the numerous times "reputable" brands have been caught with their pants down?

Or are you simply not aware of how manufacturing operates in China?

If you think there's some walled garden between manufacturing runs, you're already grossly misinformed.
I did read your comment. It's just that it was dumb. "Walled garden between manufacturing runs" is a point you made up, not a point I made. The problem isn't the manufacturing, it's the design of the product. I hope you're at least smart enough to appreciate the irony in accusing me of not reading your comment when you so clearly didn't read mine. We are not equals.
