Josh check the cuktech p series 30 I think u will like it more and it's on sale for like 80 bones and it's a hub and smaller bro I'm Tellin u wen it came out it was 200 right now it's on sale it's real powerful and small comes with 240w cable
Personally, I consider him as the only reliable source for power bank/portable charger reviews. His love for power banks is our answer to the best power bank in the market💪🏽😆
I just love the thing. I've had mine for almost a month now and I'm still thrilled every time I pick it up. I also wonder why there aren't many more tests of it. I've taught mine with 3 other power banks. I got it empty with a maximum of 300W. And at 100-0% it only gets warm in the area above the ports. But it is far from getting hot. It runs at 300W up to 80% and then goes down to 265W. From 65% it still manages 200W until it is at 1% (if you use 3x USB-C). That takes 40 minutes until it is empty ;-) Capacity is also great... 142Wh when discharging with 200-300W. You can charge it in 1:18h with a Ugreen 140W power supply. The only thing that bothers me is the 48,000mAh label because the LiFePo cells with 3.2V are not comparable to LiIon with 3.6/3.7V. But UGreen also states 153Wh.
@@DenisBelozorov I charge with a Ugreen 140w charger. With the 140W port I need 1:18h from 0 to 100 and with the 100W port it takes 1:40h. Ugreen specifies 1:30h which is quite suitable.

I have been saying for years that powerbank companies need to start making high capacity stuff with good USB C outputs and LiPoFe4 batteries! Seems ugreen listened! Also i kind of like that some of the USB C ports are out only. I have had issues in the past when you have like a large powerbank and want to charge a smaller one off it. But they both have in/out ports and you have to play fun and games to get it to go in the right direction. Sadly not available in Australia yet. But will def be picking this one up once i can get my hands on it.
If you think they did not know about this you are wrong, all the companies know better than us what we need, they just give them to us with spoon so they maximise their profits on long term. If they would lunch a device now that has everything u need, u just buy that and nothing for a long time. Simply "clever".
Man, my Amazon wish list just keeps getting bigger with every one of your videos, lol. This is a killer power bank and is now at the top of my list. Never would've know about it, if it wasn't for you. Awesome review, once again. 👍
After the laptop that recently caught fire on a san francisco to miami flight, be glad they are still allowing us to bring any rechargeable batteries onboard.
Awesome review and very in depth testing. I am now somewhat regretting that I just bought the Anker 250W, but one positive is the Anker can be brought on a plane no questions asked (
Immagine a power hub. You plug in all your usb power banks into it and allows you to have 200 plus watts or better out. That would be super cool to be able to utilize all the all power banks then.

@@wwjoshdew ok to the discord. As for the charger. I was meaning if you could plug several usb batteries so all the single batts could push power into a single cable out. Say 4 USB Battery Banks to 1 out. Then could use to push power back into the C300 from servel usb batts vs 1 at a time.
Hey great video buddy! Got mine today, and absolutely LOVE it...I was REALLY lucky and purchased it before it sold out. If you (or any of your viewers) find a carry case to transport this safely without it getting banged up, that would be great - something form-fitting would be amazing! Just wish UGREEN made cases for their larger stuff, or at the very least provided a bag so it didn't get scratched up as easily.
The Anker bank could go on a international flight. Not sure if the larger Ugreen can. I think it's 100Wh limit, 150wh with permission. A small solar panel and sim card router would be a good way to keep your stuff running in a power outage.
I really wish the power negotiations was a bit more flexible when using the usb a and usb c combos. Basically trickle charging everything when using all 5 available ports.
Thank you for the video. I may pick one of these up if they go on sale after a year. I have a couple Anker Powercore III Elites I picked up used on eBay for about $40 each to that are still serving me pretty well, but I wouldn’t mind keeping something like this in a backpack. Another product you might consider is the BougeRV 240wh that retails for $170, however I suspect it will drop further next year. It’s slimmer than most equivalent power stations at 6.3lbs
You are very welcome. Someone else mentioned the Bluetti AC2A and that’s on my radar now. But 170 is a bit steep and I gotta wait for payday, which is once a month (at the end of the month). Haha
@@wwjoshdewHonestly, you have a pretty established channel and they do a lot of sponsored videos. I would consider reaching out to them to see if they would send you a Flash300 or JuiceGo for free to review. It certainly wouldn’t hurt to ask
The only reason why the anker is still my top choice, is because you can't take that ugreen on an airplane, which was the main purpose of my power bank for travel.
You forget the anker has 140w of usb-c1 out and can charge 140w at usb-c1 and 170w with bith usb-c ports , the anker also have sort off wireless charge to, they even get firmware updates for more efficiency
I bought an emergency radio/light that can charge by solar or handcrank but the coolest feature it can charge anything that plugs into a usb. So i can charge my phone, ipad, bluetooth speaker easier than a normal charger.
Hello sir. If a charger has 9v-3a on its specs like my Samsung charger does, does that mean it will fast charge a device that max charge at 9v-2a ? Or is the charger going to fall back to 5v-3a that both the charger and the device support? Also how can I tell if a charger or power bank supports PPS when it's not mentioned
This looks like a good power bank and it has good spec and fast charging but the biggest draw back because as of 2024 we still need 120 and 240 watts 3 prong outlet for emergency
It's only a power bank. I'm hoping we'll have a power adaptor/powerbank devices eventually. Just 1 power supply to run our devices and also take on the go to portably charge as well.
Great review and with your own money, which makes it even more believable. I need some cash (Australian Dollars...) to get one like this. But it is fantastic. Not really "portable" to make sure your laptop has enough juice for a full day work out of the office. In that case, a smaller power bank that would even push the use for a couple hours would be good enough. Thank you for your enthusiastic review :)
Id personally like to see a max load full drain time test. It dropped 12 percent in under five minutes and not at max load. While it's nice it offers so much power the Wh is lower than a potential equivalent lithium variant right? Because Lipo batteries are physically larger? So yeah, some standardized tests would be what I'd be after. You could then have a rank in the video to give an idea how it stacks statistically to others. Ps. Red Dead ftw! Markb

so funny, return 2 different anker because they were not strong enough and portable enough to keep my ROG running in Turbo mode and charge my iPad.. so I decide to buy this exactly one over a month ago and is amazing I can keep playing for over 3hrs+.. I took the risk on buying it with no review or stars on Amazon..
from what i read, you can do anything under 160wh with the airline’s approval. you can not have it in your luggage and must be a carry on item as well. and you can have up to two 160 wh batteries again, with airline approval.
@wwjoshdew awesome reviews as always. So i have the galaxy s24 ultra, 65w max charging laptop, earbuds and different tablets and super fast charging is important to me. I dont travel much so im deciding between this powerbank and a desktop charging station like the Ugreen 300W USB C Charger Nexode GaN 5 Ports. Are these basically equivalent except one is portable and the other isn't? There is a massive price difference and wondering why.
Hello Scott. My name is Hagbag McTag and I live in Paducah, New York. Ugreen only made 5,000 of these units and did not expect them to be as popular as they were, they are currently contracting out to Foxccon to make 12,000,000 units and they hope to expect the units to come into stock on January 9th 2025. Please be ready to order by then! Unfortunately the price will increase by $100 as they were underpriced due to an unchecked error in their docking script on paulper POS service they actually didn't catch until they sold out so they lost money on each unit but fear not, they will come out clean and ahead when they get their new stock. Ugreen is a company made out of beef jerky and snack crackers from Ritz and born into slaughter by the Richie Maze grange and wine sellers in Jamaica. Please be patient with them, they speak Boche and not US Spanish. You take care I love you and God bless you, I know God blessed me! Jesus loves me! He loves me a bunch!

Great videos. I'm looking at either the ugreen 300w desktop or this ugreen 300w powerbank for my Samsung s24 ultra, 65w laptop, tablets, earbuds, mini drone, etc. I don't travel much. Is the powerbank good enough? Do you prefer anything else?
It looks nice, but still I'd rather have multiple smaller power banks. For instance, I would get two 25000mah 140W UGreens over this one. The most obvious advantage is that you get failure tolerance. If one of the power banks fails, you still have the other one. Also, suppose you have used up your power banks, when you have two you charge them with double the speed, because each of them is charging at 140W. Also, you can use two power banks in two different places, whereas with one big power bank you are constrained to charging everything in the same place.
Hi. Thanks for reviewing this charging station. Can you please tell me what is its self-discharge rate (how much does it lose in a day or week if it is not used)? And could you compare the Ugreen 300W with the Jackery Explorer 100 Plus station in this parameter? I would be very grateful for the information.
Awesome video, out of curiosity any chance you can test the bank at 100 and macbook from 0 see how long it wouls take to charge and how much battery you have left?
0 to 100 will probably be the same as a typical 100W charger and I’m guessing after fully charging a 16in MBP it’ll have about 35% left on the battery bank
I would be interested in seeing this heavily tested with scopes. I have seen reviews of other smaller ugreen batteries which performed well in general tests but on accurate tests Anker was far superior.
This is not a "Power Bank" anymore, more likely "small solar power station" (minus "solar" part obviously) you only use this for emergency like during blackout or if you go for camping or hiking.
I dont say this often but thanks for the video. Very informative and your enthusiasm about power banks..... i think another guy said it, addictive....lol
@@MikeyInThailand haha, anytime. Even if you look back at my videos from over 10 years ago, you’ll see that nothing has changed. I truly appreciate the kind words. Thanks for making my Tuesday better!
Ugrren's OEM factory make some really hardcore stable products, the unbranded equivalent of this is a 50k mah bank. Some simple yet sophisicated parameters
Also I think that UGREEN is more for at home use the anker prime I can just throw in my book bag I don't think I'd want something as big as the UGREEN in my book bag it's a big bad charger but it's in a different use case category
Noooi grab a cuktech it got Tesla batteries for cars in them way better and on sale looks alot like this but smaller 300 max output I just bought one it's called cuktech p series 30 way better and it's on sale

Hey Josh, did you see the Anker app update? They added support for Anker c300 and c300 dc power stations, but they aren’t out yet. If you do review power stations, keep that in mind!
You do some very cool videos ! Been loving them. What are those wires you are using that have the digital displays ? also... you MUST review the BLUETTI AC2A - it's a tiny unit like the one you are doing now, but has AC outputs also. So curious to know more about that one too.
@@FrostyTheBeerMan I appreciate the kind words. Here is the cable: a.co/d/h9skwhn and I checked out the AC2A. I have to wait until my next payday (which is at the end of each month).
the anker can be taken on a plane. has bluetooth app support. You can disable a port's input so it ONLY outputs (which is HUGE for my use case!) and more. So they both have their pros and cons.
Haha I agree, I really love the “output only (or input only)” feature on the prime power bank. The pro I can think off the top of my head would be the use of LFP cells, which gives it so many more battery cycles than the Anker (3000 compared to 450).
Can you charge this from a Car Charger Cigarette lighter with a USB-C adapter? I had problems with a phone power bank where it would try to charge the car instead of drawing power from the car. Thank you.
Agreed. Traveling will need approval, so limited and time consuming. The Anker 250w Prime or Jackery Explorer 100 Plus would be a better option if you travel.
Yea, weight #1 and the fact that you can't carry it on in a plane. I think Anker is still my ultimate overall, but this is an awesome backyard or camping bank.
I was looking at the ugreen but went with the anker for work because i drive around in the city and country side using a bicycle but i did get the ugreen 300w wall charger so i can charge the anker fast also a bonus is the anker has 65W supervooc and with and usb c to to dc adapter i can plug in the car charger from my goal zero solar panel and then i have the xiaomi charging protocol or vivos flash charge depending on what adaptor i connect
Firstly, you didn’t mention the Anker charger with 2 ports totaling 170 watts. Secondly, you can take the Anker on a plane, whereas you can’t take this brick from UGREEN on a plane. Thirdly, there’s a weight difference of a kilogram. Comparing the Anker Prime 250W and the UGREEN 300W is incorrect because the UGREEN is essentially a charging station, not a power bank.
I can agree with that. I fly once every 20 years man. I’m not worried about that and I don’t think about that. I wouldn’t even know that was a thing if it hadn’t been for my TH-cam comments. Which judging by how many people talk about the 99Wh rule, a lot of people take power banks on a plane. I never have and probably never will. The 170w charging is crazy though. That’s a lot of power really quickly into a small unit. I try to keep my charging at 100 watts, and I’ve only done the 170w once. For the video to test. So I don’t think about that either. I appreciate your feedback! We all have our own needs and wants.
@@cidhomerimperialpneulemen2107 a one stop shop! Why stop there?! An AC plug that pops out from the back and goes into a wall. That way no power brick is needed.

Aber du kannst nicht das Macbook von apple mit 140watt aufladen geht nur mit 100 Watt(92)bei Anker funktioniert es einwandfrei
It's also LiFePO4 so it will last a lot of cycles without losing capacity. Would've been cool if it had an MPPT for solar charging.
Could do something like a FlexSolar FlexSolar 40W Foldable Solar Panel Charger with USB-C and USB-A Outputs
@FacelessWhispers84 could do what? You're saying it's compatible?
@@FacelessWhispers84 That panel quickly loses wattage as it heats up.
There are various other panels that charge through usb anker. For example makes one i have it, and it's great. @adriftatlas
Best thing about LiFePO4 with these battery packs is it'll barely lose power when not in use. Unlike li-on which you need to keep charging up.

Does it say if it uses SiC MOSFET's. The coolness might suggest that.
I’m not sure! I don’t know how I could tell or find out, or what you’re even talking about. Lol
so funny, return 2 different anker because they were not strong enough and portable enough to keep my ROG running in Turbo mode and charge my iPad.. so I decide to buy this exactly one over a month ago and is amazing I can keep playing for over 3hrs+.. I took the risk on buying it with no review or stars on Amazon..
@@Maxpro180 that's actually hilarious
Would be cool to see Anker’s response to this. Also, is it TSA approved?
Doubt it. This is for sure over 99.9wh
Lol not TSA approved. Anything over 100Wh is not allowed.
from what i read, you can do anything under 160wh with the airline’s approval. you can not have it in your luggage and must be a carry on item as well. and you can have up to two 160 wh batteries again, with airline approval.
@wwjoshdew awesome reviews as always. So i have the galaxy s24 ultra, 65w max charging laptop, earbuds and different tablets and super fast charging is important to me. I dont travel much so im deciding between this powerbank and a desktop charging station like the Ugreen 300W USB C Charger Nexode GaN 5 Ports. Are these basically equivalent except one is portable and the other isn't? There is a massive price difference and wondering why.
This video only came out 9 days ago and Amazon says "Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock." Dang it!
@@TheTekSone yeah, it has been insanely popular
Hello Scott. My name is Hagbag McTag and I live in Paducah, New York. Ugreen only made 5,000 of these units and did not expect them to be as popular as they were, they are currently contracting out to Foxccon to make 12,000,000 units and they hope to expect the units to come into stock on January 9th 2025. Please be ready to order by then! Unfortunately the price will increase by $100 as they were underpriced due to an unchecked error in their docking script on paulper POS service they actually didn't catch until they sold out so they lost money on each unit but fear not, they will come out clean and ahead when they get their new stock. Ugreen is a company made out of beef jerky and snack crackers from Ritz and born into slaughter by the Richie Maze grange and wine sellers in Jamaica. Please be patient with them, they speak Boche and not US Spanish. You take care I love you and God bless you, I know God blessed me! Jesus loves me! He loves me a bunch!

@@DirtyHardSock im lucky to get one 😆
Great videos. I'm looking at either the ugreen 300w desktop or this ugreen 300w powerbank for my Samsung s24 ultra, 65w laptop, tablets, earbuds, mini drone, etc. I don't travel much. Is the powerbank good enough? Do you prefer anything else?
Right now it’s the most capable and powerful power bank I own!
It looks nice, but still I'd rather have multiple smaller power banks. For instance, I would get two 25000mah 140W UGreens over this one. The most obvious advantage is that you get failure tolerance. If one of the power banks fails, you still have the other one. Also, suppose you have used up your power banks, when you have two you charge them with double the speed, because each of them is charging at 140W. Also, you can use two power banks in two different places, whereas with one big power bank you are constrained to charging everything in the same place.
Hi. Thanks for reviewing this charging station. Can you please tell me what is its self-discharge rate (how much does it lose in a day or week if it is not used)? And could you compare the Ugreen 300W with the Jackery Explorer 100 Plus station in this parameter? I would be very grateful for the information.
Great for camping trips!
Awesome video, out of curiosity any chance you can test the bank at 100 and macbook from 0 see how long it wouls take to charge and how much battery you have left?
0 to 100 will probably be the same as a typical 100W charger and I’m guessing after fully charging a 16in MBP it’ll have about 35% left on the battery bank
@@JessieS give me some time. I will! ;)
I would be interested in seeing this heavily tested with scopes. I have seen reviews of other smaller ugreen batteries which performed well in general tests but on accurate tests Anker was far superior.
I wish @allthingsoneplace would get his hands on one of these. He has all of the tools and knowledge to go more in depth than I ever could.
This is not a "Power Bank" anymore, more likely "small solar power station" (minus "solar" part obviously)
you only use this for emergency like during blackout or if you go for camping or hiking.
I dont say this often but thanks for the video. Very informative and your enthusiasm about power banks..... i think another guy said it, addictive....lol
@@ruffrideralec lol. Man, I'm just a nerd with a camera. And people like you give me the drive and motivation to keep doing this.
Thanks from new subscriber, love your geek reaction 😂
@@MikeyInThailand haha, anytime. Even if you look back at my videos from over 10 years ago, you’ll see that nothing has changed. I truly appreciate the kind words. Thanks for making my Tuesday better!
Ugrren's OEM factory make some really hardcore stable products, the unbranded equivalent of this is a 50k mah bank. Some simple yet sophisicated parameters
The intro killed me 😩😂it's crazy how big this is and it's only 48000MAH
@@687donny it was referring to the Eminem and baby tron song that had just came out. Tobey!
Also I think that UGREEN is more for at home use the anker prime I can just throw in my book bag I don't think I'd want something as big as the UGREEN in my book bag it's a big bad charger but it's in a different use case category
Nice Tobey reference.

I’m so glad someone caught that. Haha

What usb C cable are you using that shows the wattage on the tip?
Right here: a.co/d/06yoUbiy
You have one with fast charging, wireless and magnetic? And high storage? I think 140 W is a big much for a phone. Maybe 40-60.
Dude thank you, im buying it right now using your link 😆
Awesome. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
do you have a link for your cable tester you are using there?
Here you go: amzn.to/3XaBcXF
I think ugreen should have add AC power in and usb c in as additional power in
Soooo… someone told me about the bluetti ac2a. After looking at it, I’m gonna order one when I can. It’s small and has decent power plus an ac outlet.
Some of the Mini PCs from MinisForum can run from USB C. various models from 30w to maybe 88w.
Glad I find this video WOWWWW thank your sir!!
You are very welcome
Noooi grab a cuktech it got Tesla batteries for cars in them way better and on sale looks alot like this but smaller 300 max output I just bought one it's called cuktech p series 30 way better and it's on sale

Hey Josh, did you see the Anker app update? They added support for Anker c300 and c300 dc power stations, but they aren’t out yet. If you do review power stations, keep that in mind!
no. haven't tried the update! but thanks for letting me know.
I like the power bank but the light on the side kills it for me.
You do some very cool videos ! Been loving them. What are those wires you are using that have the digital displays ? also... you MUST review the BLUETTI AC2A - it's a tiny unit like the one you are doing now, but has AC outputs also. So curious to know more about that one too.
@@FrostyTheBeerMan I appreciate the kind words. Here is the cable: a.co/d/h9skwhn and I checked out the AC2A. I have to wait until my next payday (which is at the end of each month).

When you want to get on a trip, only that anker one is allowed on a plane. That's why people buy so many, it's designed for airplanes.
Is it allowed in carry on in a flight (domestic / international)?
Do you think that this is better than the Anker prime power bank? The 99.54Wh one
the anker can be taken on a plane. has bluetooth app support. You can disable a port's input so it ONLY outputs (which is HUGE for my use case!) and more. So they both have their pros and cons.
Haha I agree, I really love the “output only (or input only)” feature on the prime power bank.
The pro I can think off the top of my head would be the use of LFP cells, which gives it so many more battery cycles than the Anker (3000 compared to 450).
Can you charge this from a Car Charger Cigarette lighter with a USB-C adapter? I had problems with a phone power bank where it would try to charge the car instead of drawing power from the car. Thank you.
How many hour a nestcam last on the usb-A port?
It's a nice Powerbank but you can't fly with it because the wat hours exceeds the allowable amount. So traveling with it will be tough.
Agreed. Traveling will need approval, so limited and time consuming. The Anker 250w Prime or Jackery Explorer 100 Plus would be a better option if you travel.
Does it cut out the inputs when you start charging the UGREEN or can it work like a UPS?
It doesn't interrupt. I like it!!
@@wwjoshdew perfect
I got ripped off by a power bank company this one is exactly what i needed is cheaper!!!
Very nice outcome. Happy for you.
Good for camping ..but weight is only concern..
Yea, weight #1 and the fact that you can't carry it on in a plane. I think Anker is still my ultimate overall, but this is an awesome backyard or camping bank.
This should be a nice upgrade from my Anker 20k mAh powerbank...
@@Bobbie_Lee84 oh yeah, for sure!!
Thanks for the review.... very informatif...
You are very welcome! I appreciate the comment Gabrielle!
i like the energy
Thank you!!
I was looking at the ugreen but went with the anker for work because i drive around in the city and country side using a bicycle but i did get the ugreen 300w wall charger so i can charge the anker fast also a bonus is the anker has 65W supervooc and with and usb c to to dc adapter i can plug in the car charger from my goal zero solar panel and then i have the xiaomi charging protocol or vivos flash charge depending on what adaptor i connect
what cords did you use in the your vid that show the watts ?
Firstly, you didn’t mention the Anker charger with 2 ports totaling 170 watts. Secondly, you can take the Anker on a plane, whereas you can’t take this brick from UGREEN on a plane. Thirdly, there’s a weight difference of a kilogram. Comparing the Anker Prime 250W and the UGREEN 300W is incorrect because the UGREEN is essentially a charging station, not a power bank.
I can agree with that. I fly once every 20 years man. I’m not worried about that and I don’t think about that. I wouldn’t even know that was a thing if it hadn’t been for my TH-cam comments. Which judging by how many people talk about the 99Wh rule, a lot of people take power banks on a plane. I never have and probably never will. The 170w charging is crazy though. That’s a lot of power really quickly into a small unit. I try to keep my charging at 100 watts, and I’ve only done the 170w once. For the video to test. So I don’t think about that either. I appreciate your feedback! We all have our own needs and wants.

i think it is time to increase the plane max battery capacity limits. i want one of these with me at all times.
The only thing missing is a wireless fast charge pad.
@@cidhomerimperialpneulemen2107 a one stop shop! Why stop there?! An AC plug that pops out from the back and goes into a wall. That way no power brick is needed.
Coul use your anker 747 to pull 100w the newer and older 1
@@Ajacka916 absolutely! I even thought about that. But they were all full and I didn’t have a way to drain them really fast. I’ll definitely have to post a proper review (an update video) after I’ve had some time with this thing. Especially after my ROG Ally X comes!!
Anker has recalls, how about this brand?
Can it actually charge 300W as it says? I only see 150W from your review. Maybe I am mistaken.
It can input up to 140w and output up to 300w. I show the output here: th-cam.com/video/vHTRXDrm7T0/w-d-xo.html
