Important thing. There is Lithium-Ion, light and powerful but does not last and then there is LiFePo (Lithium Iron Phosphate) which is not as light nor as powerful but lasts a lot longer and is a lot less prone to catastrophic destruction. Anker and many other brands use LiFePo but not all. The light(8pounnd unit) might be Lithium-Ion and will not last if you charge/discharge a lot, the heave one is for sure LiFePo and will last for 10 years even if you charge/discharge every day. Big difference in durability so check before you buy if you need a lot of discharges.
No only do you have amazing building knowledge, you are also a Blessing to giving outstanding information to whom ever watches you for amazing help with building and products that are so financially efficient. Keep doing what you do. I will continue to pray for your off and online journey. God Bless you love
These are the videos the world needs Sharrieff! seriously thought I had power systems figured out and it just kept getting more and more complicated and required more and more parts whereas your guide with power systems has made me more than confident that I will have more than enough power (I went for a 2000w output unit!) Thanks for all of your videos (especially solar to power station tutorial)
I don’t know what education you have but if you went to a great engineering college with your skills and abilities your creativity would be unlimited. You are a real talented man with a great future ahead of you.
This man doesn't need a university. Resources are available online to expand his already vast knowledge base, and from his first hour researching "how to", I guarantee he never stopped learning.
Education means nothing unless you have common sense and natural ability and that’s what this young man has. University is a waste of time for people like this. He already knows
Great video, I’ve been thinking about getting the Jackery 1000. At first my decision was the 500, but after contemplating 1000 really should be the perfect 1 for me since I am overkill😅
Best review I've seen. Just bought the Anker 555 but this really helped me to understand it better. I already have the 521 but it didn't quite do what I needed (powering Starlink when not hooked up). I'll be keeping the 521 though, for the reasons you've stated.
You are awesome! Your production is on point You steal my attention every time... ok I go willingly lol Awesome content Thank you I learn stuff amazing Love ❤😂❤
I just ran across your video and I love it. I do have one question though please. Can you charge the unit itself at the same time you are using it to run something off of it? New sub here, thanks for what you do. Lots of info., straight up and no beating around the bush.
aho DualEx, any tips / your faves on where to look for info on DIY power banks? I have several old school milterry industrial suitcase like boxes that are just screaming, POWERBANK ME. keep rollin', appreciate ya!
Im a Dj planing and small out door party. I use a Pioneer XDJ-XZ controller and i have battery speakers. How big power station will i need to play for 3-6 hours ? Thanks 🙏
I feel like going with 2 of the smaller ones is a better choice, lower cost then 1 of the bigger ones. Would have the portability of the small package. If running solar could hook up 100watt panel to each. Is there something I’m missing that makes the bigger one better?
The bigger one is expandable, you can add expansion batteries that they sell to it. It really all just depends what you are using it for. If it's something that draws a lot of power you are much better off getting the big one.
Great video! The Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series looks like a fantastic outdoor gear option for RV enthusiasts like us. With its massive capacity, fast recharging, and waterproof technology, it's perfect for keeping our devices and appliances running during our camping trips. Thanks for sharing this recommendation!
What I wonder is if a 100w solar panel hooked up to either of these power stations will keep up enough that the fridge can be run for a few days. Given that the fridge isn't running at full draw the entire time, does the solar charging "catch up" enough during the day to cover the draw over night?
The only power we really need in our van is a roof vent for when it’s hot, is it safe to splice a cigarette lighter plug to a roof vent fan then plug it into a Bluetti/jackeri and leave it on unattended?
The small one would be good to take on a day out picnic, but that’s it. The big one would be the minimum wh for van life if you wanna have a fridge/freezer.
Eh Duel I absolutely love your work man! I was hoping you could do some work on my van if I come with the parts and money? Or do you just sell whole made vans
PLEASE HELP. I’m bout to take off in my 2000 road trek but can’t figure out which to buy could either of these run my Xbox and tv??? I saw other videos with people doing it on other power banks so was just curious.
Dang man that’s cool!!yo my man quick question I’m going into the wilderness soon,,can I power a small electric esspresso machine like a misso,,a set of hair clippers like what balding clippers and a single burner hit plate off the smaller unit??I wanna do that and a backpacksbke solar pannel??I know it’s allot I figure you can kind of guess off the top of your head..thanks for any wisdom my man cool video!!
I think for me Everything evolves around my Suv/Camper So a 200 amp 120vott 24000watts system works for the cost of a 500watt portable And with 3 methods of recharging (solar, Alt, and shore plug in) You would have plenty of power not fully draining the And keeping it to recommended levels ....Lighting, Drawer fridge, Diesel heater 24hrs No problem
@@USMC6976 Oh you haven't hear of Extra 0 ? its from the brand label "typo sarcasm" They also make manopause pills to help people sit back and relax And get over "it"
I like to use small electric appliances like grill, pot, hot plate, heating pad, small heater etc.. it is hard to find 500w or under. I bought a 500w output battery generator thinking it is enough. I found that most of my cooking appliances need 600w. Heating pad works but using it causes my ipad (that also connects to the generator) to have crazy touchscreen. I was fed up with the limitation so I returned it and get a 1200w AC output generator instead (paying twice as much of course).
I definitely would recommend the higher watt (500). That's one thing I regret - going with the smaller unit. (240). In hindsight, I would have purchased the 500w unit..🤗🤗
If you really want to run a car fridge you are better off with a lithium battery, a solar controller and an inverter. You can get more capacity with greater solar charging capacity for less money. This type of battery pack seems to be widely used in America and less so in Australia.
Can these power banks be charged by the vehicle in the same or similar way as a leisure battery? I live in the UK and solar panels would be plan B for charging these batteries due to limited sunlight.
I would like to know what all you can run on that BIG you took off the table. That I could use if it puts out enough. Thank you. Love the videos and keep up the great work. 👍🏻👍🏻
These Anker power stations are equipped with Lithium ion phosphate (LiFeP04) battery not Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery. They are not the same. Lithium ion battery is prone to catch fire while not with LiFeP04 battery.
I wish someone could explain to my brain how this solar stuff works ...wish you could do a tutorial with white board I want to run a nutrninja 700w a gaming laptop and a mini fridge...I'd love it if you could even suggest a video but you are great at explaining and your so talented..I am trying to start preparing to be a nomad in a few years..anyways great video
I recommend " city prepping" channel for this I believe it will help you get a better grasp. He has a video called " Grid down catastrophe : How much power will I need to survive" . you can put it in the TH-cam search to find it.
I will also add you would need a battery that is over 700 watt capacity to do what you are trying to do. Because just a 700 watt battery would only run your gaming system for 1 hour and that's not even accounting for your fridge.
@Catherine B this is as simple as I can make it......the power of the box is basically how much power you have. If you have the 500 one then you have 500w of power......now let's say you want to use a fridge that draws 50w of power. That means you can run that fridge for 10 hours....500 divided by 50 is 10. Does that make sense?
For the difficult times we have ahead... You're already way ahead of most of us, on the path of self-sustainability. Good 👍🏾 work young man.
cheers I'm younger lol

U ROCK THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH - I LOVE YOUR DETAILED EXPLANATIONS ALL MY QUESITONS ARE ANSWERED.
You are a natural teacher.
Thank you.
Good info, thank you!👍
I LOVE Anker, git several if their units, I even buy them as gifts...
For $500 bluetti has a 800w power station which would give you more bang for your buck. Thanks for the review
Anker make outstanding Bluetooth speakers as well. I love their stuff.
I haven't heard of Anker before but they looks great. I like the light on the front too
What does an 1800 w with solar panel mean ? Thank you young man you are a wealth of information and inspiration. God bless 🙏

The end of day question:
How many phone full charges?
And
How many laptop charges?
Most common electronics
Build your own! Nuff said
I got a mini at a bin store but I need more power for my mobile nail salon .

I'm guessing that if you want to keep your food safe in the fridge, you'll go with the larger one.
The bigger one is expandable, you can add expansion batteries that they sell to it. It really all just depends what you are using it for. If it's something that draws a lot of power you are much better off getting the big one.
Excellent video, my friend! I just subscribed to you channel!
Awesome channel brother! Very helpful.
i like your work man. you should do a pontoon build
Ill be purchasing the 2000watt this year.
Hi, will it power a full size refrigerator? Thank you u really open my eyes with your awesome video and knowledge. 🥰🙌🏽👍🏽
You have video for every question I have
Great information.
Get us a discount code bro🙏 been looking at buying one of these, perfect timing lol!
Could those be used in a house? Say small heater if power went out? Thanks
nice-great-man/thanks much
Will the smallest one power a heating blanket for 8-9 hrs.?
I just wanna use it for fridge ....if i hook it up to a solar panel it will it stay on at all times??

do you if we could use de anker 521 can be use as an UPS
Can you recommend a company in Michigan to install my solar panels on my suv
For a router that is 95 watt asus router 19v x 5 amp, how long can it keep running the smaller model
The small one would be good to take on a day out picnic, but that’s it. The big one would be the minimum wh for van life if you wanna have a fridge/freezer.
do the ac outlet except 3 prong wires ?
4:35 no, the 521 has 200w
You awesome Me and my aunt Bert viewers I would like your help for advice on how to set up electrical for a tiny house we are building

plan on doing a review/install with the new anker 757?
I like to use small electric appliances like grill, pot, hot plate, heating pad, small heater etc.. it is hard to find 500w or under. I bought a 500w output battery generator thinking it is enough. I found that most of my cooking appliances need 600w. Heating pad works but using it causes my ipad (that also connects to the generator) to have crazy touchscreen. I was fed up with the limitation so I returned it and get a 1200w AC output generator instead (paying twice as much of course).
Are there portatable stations that take in more watts? How do you check how much watts it can take before you buy?
Dual you don’t install AC n if you do which battery unit is bettter I live in the desert 👍🏻
what about the brand "Jackery", is there and difference between brands?
Will that take a 3 prong plug???
Anker makes great products
Will either of these operate a garage door opener?
I plan to get a Jackery
I have the Jackery 240. Really like it - this is my 3rd year using it.
I have the 500. I cook with a mini crockpot and use a blender
I actually was deciding between the jackery explorer 290 and the Jackery 500!
I definitely would recommend the higher watt (500). That's one thing I regret - going with the smaller unit. (240). In hindsight, I would have purchased the 500w unit..🤗🤗
Do research if money isn’t a main component ecoflow and Bluetti are far better than jackery
Thanks for sharing.
Where do solar panels plug in?
Power 🆙️🦁
2 of 4 battery packs I have from Anker have failed.
my jackery powerbank won't charge off cigarette lighter plug you have to 1st charge a 600watt powerbank then daisy chain the two
👍🏾🙏🏾merci pour les videos
Anker 521 👏
Freaking Amazing video
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
You should try get a sponsor with Jackery, they seem to sponsor TH-camrs lately.

I was just looking into these as I just bought an rv, and would like to use the solar system it has!
thanks for this video
Would I be able to consistently run a fridge with the 535 and a single 100w solar panel?
Are these full sign wave batteries?
Is Lithium ion battery better for AZ heat when it’s 150 degrees inside a car sitting in the heat for hours?
Imma just build my own 48v LiFePo4 & Victron version into a pelicase with wheels
Can these power banks be charged by the vehicle in the same or similar way as a leisure battery?

Without grounding plugs you have some real limitations.
