Takki 250W Portable Power Station 222Wh Camping Backup Lithium Battery with Pure Sine Wave AC Outlet 110V Solar Generator for Camping CPAP Home Use Backup Emergency Laptop

This Takki S81 is great! I need 120V AC on/near my kitchen table for laptop when battery dies. It takes up less room than the older Anker unit I used. This power station provided an additional 11 hours of laptop runtime from "dead to dead agajn". The S81 provides 80 watts of 120 volts continiually, but laptop charger only draws 40-42 watts until laptop reaches 85%, then draws 25 watts. S81 didnt run 11 hours, but I charged laptop partially twice ran it 11 hours more from dead. Best part, S81 doesnt shut off automatically when AC power draw is under 20 watts like my older Anker unit. It kept AC output on with a 1 watt load, as well as nothing plugged in. The USB outputs will shut off after 20 seconds though if the DC draw is too low as with smaller devices or approaching full charge. Luckily the manual stated that to avoid this, simply turn on the AC outlet, even though no AC cord needs to be plugged into it. Cooling fan didnt come on until running AC for 1 hour, but was extremely quiet. My Anker unit fan comes on right away with same laptop, based on sensing power draw, not temperature. Had to struggle to hear fan on the Takki. Discharging air measured only 100⁰F. Initially was looking for a fanless station due to my Anker station fan became very loud over 5 years. Wish I knew that Takki made the "S81 Max" model. Is identical in every way, dimensions, power, etc., except a 25% bigger battery (25% more runtime) for only $28 more. I also wish this unit was pure sine wave AC, but is "modified sine wave" (square wave). No issue running the laptop charger though. Great looking unit! And compact size which was biggest attraction. Great for low powered AC appliances. Convenient, compact, attractive, and many features/functions.

I got this in the beginning of the week before my camping trip and I absolutely love it! I tested it days before and it was able to charge my phone and iPad no problem. I used it for my camping trip and it was able to fully charge my phone and iPad again, and inflate my air mattress. It eventually ran out of battery on the second day of my trip, so I had to charge it again, which took a few hours. I might buy the solar powered one next time so I’m able to recharge it on the spot. It’s very easy to use, portable, great for camping, and worth my money. Though the “car charger” isn’t really a charger. It’s just an adapter to plug something into, so it’s useless. The wall charger works as it should. I had to cover up the battery light because it’s too bright at night.

We took this portable power station on a 10-day remote camping trip in Alaska, and it exceeded all our expectations. It kept our phones and flashlights charged with no issues at all. We also used it to power the air mattress pump. The flashlight on this unit was super bright, and came in handy in the dry cabin at night, as well as random trips to the outhouse in the dark. We charged it using a solar panel (not included) during the day and also topped it off while driving between camping spots using the car outlet. Both methods worked smoothly, and we never once ran out of power. This thing was a game-changer for staying connected, navigating, and just keeping our gear functional in the wilderness. It’s well-built, easy to use, and light enough to haul around without much trouble. If you're heading off-grid—especially somewhere as remote as Alaska—this is a must-have. Highly recommend!

It lasts about two charges of my cellphone once it is fully charged, It have some issues that delay it's charge but it's a good product.

Works so well even a year later! I use it on car rides to charge iPads, and phones, and run fans etc. It lasts for 2+ days and I can charge it while driving by laying the solar panel on the dash. I accidentally left it out in the rain yesterday for a few hours and although initially it was not working, today it works perfectly!!!

Works great, for its size. It won’t power up a fridge , but will work for all smaller devices you may use for camping. Phone, laptop, misting fans, air compressors and etc. the fact that it comes with solar panels for its price is what convinced me to get this. First thing I did was use the solar panels to charge this baby up. I work for the post office and always have misting fans. Mini hand held blowers, battery jumpers and other devices that I power up and charge width this using free energy with those solar panels. Best investment by far. Good price compared to all the others I’ve seen. And I’m thinking of getting a bigger one to run some household items. 😀

Awesome power station, I love the solar panel. It's very light weight. Easy to travel with. So glad I bought this. Definitely great for hurricanes and camping

Charging and size are ok. Rundown time tests were acceptable on the items I want power for when I don't have power available for the house or whatever. The add-ons are useful with plug adapters. The solar charging could be improved.

Es de tamaño pequeño , pero muy potente y te saca de apuros cuando se va la luz, que es para lo que la utilizo yo, tiene entrada para todo tipo de clavijas , y sus dos lámparas sin muy prácticas y de ayuda y con 2o 3 funciones e intensidades. Fácil y rápido de cargar, no pesa y ocupa poco espacio.

I love this product! The unit itself is very nicely designed, well built, and extremely easy to use. The indicators on the device are stylistic and easy to read. I purchased this unit before heading out on a family camping trip. I know...I know...who needs phones or charging!? You're camping! If you're like me though - with teenaged kids, you know how important their phones are to them! We charged it up before we left and it held it's charge very well. Between my wife and I and our 3 teens, we were able to charge all of our phones more than once before needing to recharge the unit with it's handy car adapter. At home, it's a cinch to recharge as well - simply plug into the wall and after a reasonable amount of time your portable charger is full and ready to go. We also found the built in LED light very handy at night for times when you had to walk away from the campfire or just for inside the tent. It puts off a surprising amount of light! We bring this with us practically everywhere we go now, whether it's to the soccer field or in the car on long trips. Great for a family on the go!

Awesome at least I know I'm going to have power on my next Black out, third one of the year, absolutely ridiculous but I'll be okay

In terms of this power, its size is small, which brings a lot of convenience to my work. Moreover, the three-gear adjustable lighting function is worth a lot of points for the Vancouver autumn with short days and long nights. Again, it's really as small and light as a mobile powerbank, which I love! But about the capacity is not enough if you want to spend an entire night outdoors. Generally speaking, it suits me well！

Regrese el 1ro, llegó sin caja y en una bolsa, con la clavija rota, el 2do que pedí llegó en excelentes condiciones, lo probé y funciona correctamente.
