Yes, AFERIY 2001A is compatible with most other brands of solar panels in the market. It is also compatible with AFERIY solar panels: AF-S200, AF-S100, AF-S400. Please note that the AFERIY 2001A supports a maximum input voltage of 48V, a maximum input power of 500W, and a maximum input current of 20A. A kettle was a little too much for it, running at just over 2500W before overloading the power station, but a 1550W hairdryer ran fine and I couldn’t find many more household items that would overload the unit so it could prove very useful in a power cut. Using the AC200P as a solar generator is one its greatest strengths. It can support an input voltage from 35V all the way up to 150V with a maximum current of 12A and there’s a built-in MPPT controller for more efficient solar charging. Bluetti EB55 (537Wh): We've liked most every unit from Bluetti, and three of them took previous titles in this best list, but this unit just got overshadowed by its siblings. Just as good or better offerings at better prices keep the EB55 out of the winner's circle.
I did try switching again to Car as the input source and connecting one panel via this input since its range appears to cover the output of one solar panel. But although it recognised its input with the voltage displayed, the power stations still didn’t charge. I tried this with the Bluetti SP120 and the Allpowers and Ecoflow panels. Again looking into this with my bench power supply it looks like this input needs 8A of current to charge the unit – so in bright enough conditions with the right single panel you might get this to work. At 22kg, the Max is pretty heavy, but thanks to the large handles, most able-bodied individuals should be able to move it around easily. It’s built tough, and we have no concerns about it standing up to ongoing use.Deeno GT S1500 (1036Wh): We previously tested the Deeno GT X1500 and we feel like this S1500 is a big step up. Same capacity, same pricing, but nearly 20% more usable capacity over the previous model and charges nearly five times faster! There are lots of factors that can affect this, and most of them center on how the manufacturer chooses to build their units' internals to manage their charged capacity. There is some (usually negligible) amount of power that goes to fuel the various indicator lights and readable led panels on the units. Some of the larger units even have their own operating systems, so it's almost like powering an additional mini-pc on the inside. Other units can have power-saving features where they reduce outgoing bulk power as they near depleting their charge.
Goal Zero Yeti 200X:: The Goal Zero products are solidly made, but we did get the lowest score in our 'usable capacity' tests from this unit -- about 65% compared to the industry-accepted norm of 85%. There are better products in the small portable power station category. Q: Can the AFERIY 2001A 2000W portable power station be compatible with solar panels from other brands? Under Settings you can switch between 50Hz and 60Hz, change the DC input mode from solar to car, toggle Eco mode and change the display language. With Eco mode on the unit will shut off the AC power after 4 hours if the output is less than 50W. I’d recommend turning this off if you want to run anything low powered that you want to stay on, like a phone charger or a low powered fridge.Featuring 8 IN 1 charging almost all popular electronic devices can be operated and charged, you will have peace of mind knowing that whether in hard outdoor use, camping and RV road trips, in the garden or in case of power failure at home all you electronic devices can be used. The HPS-1100 works straight out of the box and turns on with a push of a button, with no pull cord found on petrol generators this portable generator is easy for everyone to use so you can enjoy your home electronics amongst the silence of the outdoors.
Next, we push the power stations to their limits and beyond. We intentionally exceed the maximum power allowed on each generator, then we observe and note the recovery from the over-power protection. This helps us ensure that we promote safe power stations for you and your family. These power stations are perfect for power cuts, camping, travel and festivals and the AC200P can charge at up to 700W off solar panels alone when mains isn’t available.Geneverse HomePower One (1,002Wh): This unit was the second slowest overall to charge, but did well on its usable capacity rating at 91%. Its display is small, but offers all the standard input and output features you'd want.
It’s not possible for us to get any meaningful test of cycle life in the short period over which a review like this one takes place, but we can report that we didn't notice any anomalies. We found the unit tended to self discharge a bit faster than the rated 1-year standby time, so it’s best to make sure it is plugged in every few months. When we recharged the Yeti from a wall outlet with the included AC charger, it took 13 hours and 11 minutes to go from 0 to full. You can cut that down to as little as 3 hours (claimed) with an optional 600-watt power supply. You can also charge from your car with Goal Zero’s optional car charger, or using a Boulder Solar Panel Briefcase. Keeping it simple-ish, imagine a swimming pool with room for 100 people, each person representing 1% of the total space. When you first start charging, and that first person dives in, you don't really have much to worry about. You're not going to run into anyone else, so dive, splash around, whatever you want. Now, as we add people, it gets a bit more crowded, and complicated. You've got less room for people. Once you have 80 people in the pool, that next person is going to take a few extra seconds to more carefully choose their entry so as to not cause any issues by just jumping and hoping no one is in the way. Monster Power Grid 300 (296Wh): The Power Grid 300 can be slow to charge, but did test at over 90% usable capacity. It has all the bells and whistles you'd expect at this level at a price that's potentially a tad high. When the combined power of 2 solar panels exceeds 500W, the solar panel output power will be limited to within 500W. Please note that the solar panels used should have an output power not exceeding 500W, output voltage not exceeding 48V, and output current not exceeding 20A.BLUETTI Generator AC200P, AC adapter (including AC charging cable), MC4 Solar charging cable (MC4 to XT90), Car charging cable (car to XT90), XT90 to aviation plug (input), User manual FAQ BioLite BaseCharge 1500 (1,521Wh): Having tested both the 600 and 1500 models of the BioLite BaseCharge, I can tell you that this company is fairly consistent when it comes to their product manufacturing. The BaseCharge is about 2.5 times the capacity of the 600. And that 2.5 modifier carries across the board fairly accurately from price to capacity, charge times, everything. So, if you like the 600 but you wish you had two and a half of them, save yourself the effort and just buy the 1500. Yoshino B4000SST (2611Wh): This unit tested fairly well in our lab. 87% usable capacity, blazing fast charge speeds and a decent feature set. An option worth considering if you can find it on sale.
