Just what I needed
I have been waiting to write this since I had a bad experience with the first Gen and I wanted to give a fair review.The first unit would not power on if it was not plugged into the wall. I emailed the company and explained that I am buying a Gen to use for power, and how can I use a Gen that will not power on without being attached to power...Like another reviewer had said, when problems arose with the first Gen, I had to send them a lot of info. When they started asking me for videos, I told them the unit had not worked properly since purchasing it and they need to replace it, no more endless emails and no pics... I had only had the unit for a few days when it started acting up.They sent me a call tag, I repacked the unit and sent it back. They waited until they received my first Gen before they sent the replacement.The second unit is perfect! I am really impressed with it's performance and have been putting it thru it's paces. It is fast to recharge if you plug it into the wall and it will recharge in my truck as well thru the "cig lighter". It does lose some power when you leave it unplugged. I had it sitting for a month or so and it was down to 95% but I plugged in a mini fridge and it has kept it running for almost two days now. Again, very impressed!I had been unable to get the first Gen to charge using the 100w solar panel that I had purchased. The new unit accepts the solar panel and will charge, slowly compared to wall power, but will charge.I can connect it to my iPhone with the app and it is nice to be able to check it and make sure it is still running.It is portable and on the small side so it fits nicely in my truck. I purchased this to use for power on a cross country trip. I am going to be truck camping for about a week and I don't want to use my truck's battery the whole time so this is perfect.I would definitely recommend this Anker power station. I am happy I purchased it and Anker did take care of the problems I had with the first unit by sending me a new one, so I feel confident with their company's warranty.Ver másVer menos
