SUAOKI S270 Portable Power Generator 150Wh Solar Power Station Lithium Battery Power Supply 220V-240V with UK Plug, LED Flashlights for Camping Travel CPAP Emergency, Quiet and Compact

After one too many power cuts at home I decided to buy this. We have other smaller power banks for our phones and even a generator, but for an overnight power cut we wouldn't typically run the generator. The smaller powerbanks for recharging phones are great for exactly that and also powering things like LED light strips to place around the house.But this leaves the question - how do you make sure you have plenty of backup power and a way to charge those other power banks, and maybe power other "critical" bits of equipment - e.g. medical equipment or internet router ;-)This is a brilliant solution to that scenario.The device itself is quite compact, more so than I expected (see pics). What attracted me to this device was the addition of the UK mains socket, which allows you to power devices up to 150W draw.So, I tested it, first of all with an LED lamp. It powered it perfectly as you can see. This was a 7Watt LED, so in fact you could easily power many of these via a distribution board which would be a great way to light a room during a power cut.However, one thing that is quite hard to work out from the amazon description is just what the capacity of this device is and thus how long it can power any particular item, so I decided to find out.I plugged in my TV, which is around 55W rating according to the label on the back. I'm not sure I expected it to power up and work but it did! And I simply left it running and timed it.2 hours 41 minutes later it was still running and the battery was flashing for recharge. It was not completely empty but I did not want to damage the batter so decided to stop the test and recharge.The capacity of the battery is just the power supplied x the time, so in fact this works out at around a capacity of 150Wh.You can then use that knowledge to work out how it compares to a typical phone bank which supplies USB charging at between 3.8 - 5Volts or so... I did the maths and worked out this is basically equivalent to a 40,000mAH phone bank battery. So, if your phone is something like 2,500mAH capacity, which is fairly typical for newer phones, then you could charge it 16 times over with this power bank.What really sets this apart from a typical phone power bank though, apart from the fact it is about twice the capacity of the biggest ones you can buy (at the time of writing), is the flexibility: not just the USB ports, Quick Charge and 12V sockets, but particularly the addition of the Mains power socket, which is extremely useful; not just for power cuts, but even for taking to the beach where you might want to power a cool box or even a TV ;-) Or if you are travelling and may need access to power for medical equipment, or busking with musical equipment etc. etc.I think it's fantastic!

I bought this a month ago to power a Pet Remedy 15w heat pad for my dog and it has been doing the job great. Much smaller and lighter than I expected, so really handy.When fully charged it powers the pad for about 14 hours, which suits me fine.The only thing I don't like at the moment is the battery charge indicator on the top, which shows about 3/4 charge left after 10 hours, but I soon discovered that was inaccurate. Not a big deal, just ignore the charge indicator.(I've been charging from a wall socket, so can't comment on other charging method using solar panels - not provided - although that's an attractive option to have).

I have been searching for a small but powerful generator for over a year now and after searching the Internet and ready numerous reviews I final decided to purchase this product. I spent a couple of weeks also researching the company as I would rather not have the generator blow up on me. This is a well built and surprising light and compact generator with a generous amount of ports including USB, UK 3 pin plug and 4 15amp DC ports. It come with both a mother and daughter lighter connector, solar power connector and a 3 pin plug. I have been able to power my TV for just under 3 hours, charge my laptop and other portable devices.I will be using the generator for camping and for when I go out on Photography trips to charge my camera batteries. Where it will come in handy will be for winter camping to run a low wattage electric heater. So far so good with this product.

I bought this to power my amp (that need 50W) when I go busking. Despite USB and 12V outputs were working, and the same for LED lights, AC output wasn't even capable of turning on a 5W lamp.I asked the customer care for a replacement, but since I couldn't post a battery due to UK laws, I've been asked to send a video showing the product malfunctioning and after that I had a FULL refund.At this point, I gave this product to an electrician, asking him if he could repair it: he told me none of the specs are true (output peak is 70W, not 150W), manufacturing is really bad and there's no respect of EU safety regulations.

I have no time to use this use this item as yet, but even so I am quite disappointed with what you see on Amazon page and the actual size of the item - it's tiny to look at. Disheartened and disappointed.

This is my primary power source for busking. It powers a Fender Rumble V3 25W bass amp, my soundcraft ui12 mixer and 3 pedals (EQ, Tuner and overdrive). I played for 2 hours yesterday and didn't even lose a single light! It charges fully in about 4 hours from the mains. It can also charge from your car lighter socket. The light is bright and useful as are the carry handles. It comes with loads of types of connectors. I haven't tried the solar charging yet (haven't bought the panel!) but, everything else has been incredible. Thanks for an excellent product that really enhances my mobile life. I'll be buying more soon!

Well it was working lovely, and I was rather impressed with my little charger, in fact I was rather attached to it. Then it just stopped charging for no apparent reason ! However return service from the seller has been first class.

One star down because it's a modified sine wave that my small TV had issues with, I'll be connecting it to a 12v socket in future as the TV is 12v DC or 240AC.Pure sine wave is important for a lot of electronics so be careful.It's still good though for the price but easy to take risks with your equipment if lets say your laptop runs out of juice, my chrome books power pack really heated up while using it plus others that have used these, not sure about just charging off it though but I'd say that would be safer.Great light, good battery and plenty of sockets so definitely deserve four stars.
