About this deal

I plugged in a light which used a constant 160W of power according to the Explorer 240 and my energy monitoring plug. 240Wh divided by 160W gives 1.5 hours and I got 1 hour 32 minutes running down the charger from 100%, which confirms the calculation and the spec’d capacity of the battery. When the battery gets to 20% and then 10% the display lights up and flashes 10 times. Heavy items will require the recipient to make arrangements to take delivery of the goods and may require the recipient to help the courier unload the item. For items that are delivered on a pallet the courier will leave the pallet as close to your door as possible. But the USB ports will still charge an iPad at the same speed as the 12W chargers Apple supplied as standard until recently. Testing the 12V port with an QC 3.0 adapter And this output power reading will also let you estimate how long you can run a device for. Just divide the 240Wh capacity of the unit by the displayed output to get the remaining time in hours. I would have quite liked the charger to do this calculation for you and show you on the LCD display the battery time remaining, but understand it would only be accurate when the total output was constant.

Entries that are defamatory, obscene, illegal, abusive or similarly inappropriate will be disqualified and excluded from the activity. The power station also wouldn’t be much good for powering a wireless charger or anything under 10W since it automatically shuts off after 12 hours if the output is below 10W. Using passthrough charging in the car The charger has a fan that turns on intermittently in general use and is permanently on at higher power outputs – especially when using the AC outlet. Watch the accompanying YouTube video to hear how noisy the fan is

You can use all outputs simultaneously as long as their combined output is 200W or less. Performance Charging via the included AC adapter In the event of circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Promoter, or where fraud, abuse and/or error (human or technical) affects or could affect the proper running of this activity or the award of the Prize, the Promoter reserves the right We reserve the right to cancel or amend these Terms and Conditions at any time but will endeavor to minimize the impact on participants to avoid disappointment. As I briefly mentioned earlier the power station does support pass-through charging so you can charge the unit while you’re using a combination of its outputs. This is quite useful in the car – you can have it plugged into the 12V car charging port on longer drives whilst charging all your devices.

Paired with a Solar Saga 100W solar panel , the Explorer 240 is ideal for charging electronic devices such as phones, cameras or drones, but could also power small 230V appliances such as an electric SUP board pump, a fan, an outside light, or a low wattage TV.

Note: Storage instruction: keep fully charged every 3 months for best results and store it between -20 and 45 °C. Keep your portable power station away from heat and direct sunlight to extend its life span. If you suffer from sleep apnoea the manual states the charger can run a CPAP machine between 6 and 21 hours, but that’s not something I’m able to confirm. Testing the USB ports The charger takes around 5.5 hours to charge from completely empty with the wall charger and around 6.5 hours with the car charger. It would be around the same time with the 60W solar panel, depending on the weather. Theoretically you could also charge the power station with an electric generator if you have one. No USB Power Delivery charging like the RavPower Power House

Safe: Emissions-free energy source and reliable battery management system makes it safe enough even for indoor use.For reference, assuming power consumption of your device is 60W (might be a box fan), working time will be 240Wh*0.85/60w=3.4hrs (roughly calculated). Please note: actual power consumption varies from different usages, book a consulation with us for further advice.
