MAXOAK Portable Solar Generator 200Wh 55200mAh Power Source Station W/AC120W DC12V QC3.0 USB-C PD2.0 Portable Power Supply Recharged by Solar/AC Charger Used for Outdoor Camping Travel CPAP Emergency

So, disclaimer here, I own another maxoak battery pack that I absolutely love. I have been using it for quite a while for camping but was looking for another option that had 100v capability. This popped up in my suggested item list so i checked it out. It appeared to have everything i wanted in a very slick looking package. I live in the Midwest, so power outages are frequent and having not only a backup battery for my cpap, but also anything else i might want to run like a tv or laptop it just icing on the cake. I went ahead and bought this on a whim to see what it could do. At first glance i was very impressed. Its a very slick looking unit and it is very straight forward and easy to use. Out of the package it is impressive. Very modern and very intuitive. I decided to put it through its paces with my bipap the week before i went camping to see if it was going to last for the 3 days i needed. TO make a long story short, it passed with flying colors.I will say that it cant run the machine with the humidifier on, but then again, its not designed for that, there are other batteries for that purpose. Without the humidifier, i was able to get and easy 4 nights out of it before i went ahead and charged it again to take camping. I used it for 3 nights in a tent to power my cpap, and i also used it to power our camp radio and charge all of our phones all weekend. It was able to do all of that without needing a charge. I am beyond impressed and cant recommend this unit highly enough. If you are in the market, this is an excellent buy. The added 12V adapter also give you the flexibility to run any 12v items you could think of within reason. I love this so much, i'm considering buying another for my brother because he camps as much as i do and would love it.I've uploaded an unboxing video and will be uploading a review video soon as well. Check them out!

After purchasing their big unit to run my 200 watt gaming laptop, I also wanted something more portable that I could bring ANYWHERE and didn't look like I was lugging around a small car battery. Well this unit fit the bill perfectly, it is half the power (200WH vs. 400WH, and has one wall plug up to 120 watts vs. 2 wall plugs up to about 240 watts ) of the bigger Poweroak 400. But look at the pictures, it is well over half as small and light. One picture shows it charging my phone with a USB-C, it also has 2 USB ports one with quick charge for your more powerful phones and tablets. I could run my old 65-90 watt laptop for a couple hours of gaming or probably a few more hours of just browsing or watching movies. My new laptop is a 200 watt gaming beast, and since this unit is rated at 120 watts it cuts off safely if I try to game, but I can browse the web, watch movies, or just charge it fine and then game when unplugged and the laptop's battery is full. It came packaged very nicely surrounded by styrofoam. And as the listing says comes with a home charger and solar cable ready to hook up, but I don't have a solar panel (at least not yet). I was kind of surprised (even though the item description mentioned this) that this smaller unit which would charge faster in your car than the large unit didn't come with a car charger. They say you can email them and get one though, or you can do what I did and just use an inverter from Best Buy or Amazon for $15-$50 that plugs into your car's cigarette/aux port and gives you a wall outlet that you just plug the normal included wall charger into. This works great and charges at the normal 33 watts, but it is an extra step and converting DC to AC and back to DC doesn't make a lot of sense for the long term, but great in a pinch. Just don't plug more than 120 watts, 12 volts, or 10 amps into the car inverter or you will blow it or a fuse in the car. This unit's charger is 33 watts, well under 120 watts so not an issue. All that said, I am going to email them and get a car charger as the cable will be much smaller and easier to use. Using it couldn't be any easier, just turn it on after charged and press the DC for charging cell phones, tablets, ect. from the USB ports or press AC for when you plug in normal wall plugs like a laptop, small t.v., lamp, anything under 120 watts. You can also do both at the same time and even while charging, which most other brands won't! Some people in warm climates and using this outdoors a lot will want a solar panel and believe it or not it charges faster with the solar panel than plugging it into the wall, but I live in a mainly cold climate and I want to charge it at home and in my car. Charging at home is easy, just plug in the adapter like a laptop charger (it gets warm just like a laptop charger), it has a light while charging and the LCD display also shows a 5 bar charge level as it fills up. Other than not including the car charger adapter I really like everything about this unit compared to other competitor's with similiar specs, this just looked better built and has a nice LCD screen instead of just buttons and LEDs. Also it is so small I just put it in my laptop bag and bring it to work and charge it for FREE, lol. Guess I will do that until I can charge it in my car for free or eventually try solar for both my units. I live in an area where electric cost is very high, like 25 cent/kwh, so having free charging and a powerbank on hand for any trips, emergencies, or just to save money using it at home it is a very nice gadget. It can power all sorts of things, not like those small cheap powerbanks that only can power tablets or phones. Being this small and having a real 120 watt plug outlet on top off all that is what makes this product so great.

I was very surprised at the size of the unit. When I opened the box I though I must be missing something. The unit will fit under the seat of my car which makes it easy to pack for camping trips. It is also surprising lightweight and the handle makes it easy to carry. There is one A/C socket which is typically all that I need but I bout myself a spilter in case I need a 2nd. The USB slots in the front make it easy to access for cellphones. It also has a C cable (lightning cable) for quick charging of my Samsung Galaxy phone. Only thing I wish it came with was jumper cable.

The unit holds a lot of power, it lasts charged a long time.I needed to turn on the power and DC buttons to power the phone. The manual is not clear about the instructions, you need to play around somewhatMy advice is to contact customer service before buying if you want to use it to power a laptop, just to make sure it will deliver the output you need for your model. It did not deliver enough power to charge my Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming laptop.Since all I could get was to charge my LG smartphone, a portable bank is far lighter and easier to carry, to accomplish the same thing. Although unit can charge my cell phone several more times than a power bank

Extremely versatile generator with the ability to power AC or DC. I received it with about a 60% charge and it took about 2 hours to fully charge.It powered my laptop and a floor fan for 4 hours and still had 40% left. Glad that the plug accepts 3 prongs so I can plug in more things. The attached pictures are for the fan specs, laptop and the unit when I had my laptop plugged in.The QC 3.0 is awesome to have and charged as fast as the OEM Samsung charger for the S8. I have not tried the car adapter yet.It wasn't as heavy as I thought and has a pretty compact footprint given how much power it generates. Great that I can charge several items at once with a variety of plug in types. Unit did not get hot when using.
