It is really interesting. TH-cam has been notifying me 2x today about the new vids that certain channels have been posting. Keep up the good work. TH-cam thought I should watch you twice.
Outstanding Review Brother 👏 I Think Nitecore is the Best Products on the Market. THANK YOU. Sincerely your freind from Mo Rick and God bless you and your family and are Great Country and
Definitely something up with the quick charge, should be pumping out more than that. Would also expect the quick charge to drain the battery quicker not longer than the normal usb outputs. Could be a setting on the phone or the usb type C cable being used...
The USB voltage and amp tester that you have doesn't have the required hardware to activate the higher charge rates. If you want to charge your phone as quickly as possible, connect the phone with a USB C cable to the PD port. Your USB tester also will not tell you how well the solar panels are working, other than like in your video, it's working or it's not. Use the battery box to find out how many watts are being produced if you want to adjust them for highest output to the battery box.
Hey Jeremy, I'm looking to get one of these power supplies but my budget is around 400 bux. Can you recommend one? Jackery, Bluetti or maybe one from Nitecore. Thanks
Can I ask the red light by the charge ports is on constantly but when I plug a device in it flashes , I’m not in direct sunlight btw. Is this normal in low light ? I haven’t tried it in the sunlight yet. Instructions tell you nothing about the red light
What you need to do is attach a mostly drained device to the fully charged bank. Record time to charge device and final bank capacity. Compare that with a mostly drained device connected to fully charged bank with the solar panel hooked up. Record time to charge and final bank capacity
Good Day, I don’t believe I saw anyone comment on your question about V and A on your monitoring device. So I thought I’d comment. It’s a long one so I hope you actually have time to read it. To start with since I get so much out of your vid’s I’m willing to give back. Secondly although I have a degree in electrical engineering, albeit 38 years ago, I am both dumbfounded and amazed by technology advancements. I can’t say I can fully explain the deviation you witnessed from the standard USB output vs the QC output, but I have enough info here that might rationalize it and perhaps a couple of things you can take away from this. Most importantly I would suggest not to use your cell phone as a device to compare. Why? because most modern cell phones contain controller chips which prevents the amount of current entering the battery. Hence this likely what has affected your readouts on your monitoring device. I recommend charging something like one of your portable battery packs for better effect on current draw. Getting to your question directly. Yes A would be Amps and V would be Volts. Watts = V times A. This might be a better number overall for you to do comparisons with, at least on one level. So if we use your numbers starting with the regular USB 1.56A X 5.06V you get 7.89Watts (notice the NPS400 measured 9W - fairly close). Now compare to the QC being 0.49A X 4.87V = 2.38 Watts (you didn’t indicate what the NPS400 was reading) But I think its safe to say since QC was only using 30% wattage compared to the standard USB is actually going to charge slower, again its your phone Software and Controller controlling that. Another related point, notice the NPS400 only states watts on the panel and not voltage or amps, I looked it up, its because it feeds 5V=2A and 9V=2A 18W Max. Again shedding some more light that your phone maybe regulating what it wants versus what the NPS400 can feed, in this case slower charge, ironically against the manufactures expectations I would assume. It would be interesting to see what the NPS400 showed when you phone was plugged in. Notice this is the NPS400 spec for the regular USB output 5V=2.4A, 12W Max Each Port, that 5V Amp spec is 2.4V where the QC at 5V is less at only 2Amps. So I speculate depending on the device you are charging it could be a faster charge. I really don’t think Nitecore was trying to mislead anyone, they are trying to keep up with the fast paced technology changes as well. Hope that helps…… Mike,
I hope you are getting more views towards these glamping videos / camper vans. Dont get me wrong. I still watch it and thumb up every single one of them. But i would like to see some more actual hiking not just "Setup camp, saw some, cook food, say goodnight, make coffee goodbye" If you dont want to do that. I get that. Its not a request.. (well its sort of is) But.. yeah you know...
@@Lonewolfwildcamping Absolutley. I will continue to watch. Also i love how you stand up to OT and its been big debating on their forums. Keep going man. :)
Another way to keep your modern luxuries while doing a wilderness bug-out. You can keep your computer with you along with some lights and an electric cook stove and your mobile phone device. Have a great day coming.
the USB voltage reader is reading the output voltage from the USB port. the USB port is 5volt port and only output 1 Amp. That is only 5 Wat. If NiteCore could make the USB port with 30w output then the kit is very powerful. You can test the USB output on the panel. You plug the USB volt meter in one port and the phone is plug in on other port. after 15min you can see how much the panel charge the phone. This is the true output of the USB charge on the panel. The 100w solar panel is more capable output power. You can charge the phone and charge the battery pack at the same time. The battery pack should be in the shade for better charging performance.

Awsome, very happy to hear that
That folding panel looks good, thanks for the video
tip : 5 watts is not quick charging your phone, try a USB C cable and you'll get >30 watts
Thanks 👍
Most phones don't go above 18-20 watts while others are 25w to 45w and overseas 60w are better.
Thank you for the informative review!!
Thank you, its a very good product and i like it 😁👍
That’s a great setup and video thanks for the great info.
Thanks for enjoying
That’s a nice setup. I went with the rockpals panel and battery back. Close to the same setup. Good video brother.
Thanks alot 👍
Wow that looks cool 😎 very useful and handy 😃Thanks for sharing! Enjoy
Thank you, a very useful item
Thanks for your work!
Thank you
Great review, you always are very through 👍🏻
Thank you
Awesome vid my friend
Thank you

I found out the cable was not a quick charge cable
Looks Like A Solid Product, Many Uses, Thanks For The video. ATB T God Bless
I'm loving it so far🤙😁
So damn cool
Can you do with any portable fridge that run 12volt. from 100% to 10%. how long it can last ???

Superb review.
Hey Jeremy, I'm looking to get one of these power supplies but my budget is around 400 bux. Can you recommend one? Jackery, Bluetti or maybe one from Nitecore. Thanks
They are all fairly pricey unfortunate
Can you plug a power strip into the AC outlet, as long as you don't plug in more items than the output can handle?
Yes, it will work as long as you don't go beyond the output limit
@@Lonewolfwildcamping awesome, thank you!
No problem
Can u use the powerstation while charging it via power or solar?
Yes but not efficient
Can I ask the red light by the charge ports is on constantly but when I plug a device in it flashes , I’m not in direct sunlight btw.
Is this normal in low light ? I haven’t tried it in the sunlight yet.
Instructions tell you nothing about the red light

Interesting, 😊
What size is the output from the solar panel. I want to get a nitecore to power my rockpals 300.
8mm input for solar
👍🏴
🤙🤙

Thanks, I like to mix things up on the channel, a bit of everything for everyone
@@Lonewolfwildcamping Absolutley. I will continue to watch. Also i love how you stand up to OT and its been big debating on their forums. Keep going man. :)
Thanks alot, I appreciate the support
You should have plugged your refrigerator in while it was charging then check your readings
Its best to charge the unit with nothing plugged into it
It’s they start including the car charger
😄
Another way to keep your modern luxuries while doing a wilderness bug-out. You can keep your computer with you along with some lights and an electric cook stove and your mobile phone device. Have a great day coming.
Absolutely, excellent for truck campers 😁🤙
Does the solar panel work with a jackery power bank?
Yes with the correct adapter
like like
😊🤙
Portable toilet check it out online
🤔
What... no coffee in this video? Well, does this make coffee?
I know, I should have plugged in the coffee perk ☕😁

Thanks alot, im new to the voltage readings
wrong 110 oulet for my locatin
They are available in different options for different parts of the world
Thank you for all of that info.
Glad you enjoyed the video
