Wow, that "Energy" video really caught my attention! As an outdoor enthusiast myself, I understand the importance of having reliable power sources while camping. The Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series seems like a fantastic choice with its massive capacity and fast recharging capabilities. Plus, the fact that it's waterproof and has comprehensive protections makes it even more appealing. Thanks for sharing this great recommendation!

Hi- I am using my R4000 mostly as a UPS and is always plugged to both the 600 watt panel that came with it and into the 130 outlet. I noticed that a few time already the R4000 will drain without charging all the way down to 5%. For each time I have to turn off and on the R4000 then it will charge as normal. How can this be a reliable UPS if it stops charging randomly when charged to the AC? Likewise the 600 watts panel I find to be lacking in durability. There are fabric where the crease between panel have worn out only after about 9 months of use. It is not producing more than 400 watts of power and right now I am having the run around from allpowers. Customer service is very poor.

I already have 600W solar with 2 100AH LifePo4 batteries via a MPPT solar controller with a 1000W inverter. I'm assuming I'll plug the 30A output into my AC-in on inverter, and for shore power use the same circuit for 110VAC when parked with hookups? Wondering if the manufacture or anyone offer any standard procedures for this type application? Thanks

I’ll be doing a review on the Delta pro here in probably the next 2 to 3 weeks. Along with the fully automatic home transfer switch. There’s a major price difference between the two but if you have the money, I definitely go to Delta Pro.

*If you leave the power station active in standby, does it automatically close after a while (or if the consumption on DC, for example, is very low)? Can it be restarted remotely from the application? Or is there at least the possibility to keep the station active continuously regardless of whether or not there are consumers to feed?*

the output loss on series wired panels is why so many micro-inverters per panel systems exist. one spot of shade = whole array drops output significantly. plus there's slightly less loss with the AC power coming down from the roof, vs. long runs of DC cabling, which also uses larger gauge wire(cost more). not to mention a few globs of bird poo, leaf, rain, clouds, bugs, dirt, dust all effect the series wired stuff far worse. granted that's a small portable setup and a micro-inverter setup there would be rather null, probably waste energy and cost more. lol

@@viyusavery248 in a larger permanent installed setup yes, because the panels are in parallel then, meaning each panels output is converted(micro-inverter) to AC power and sent down at that higher voltage. so one panel being shaded or breaking won't effect the output of others, the others will continue putting out whatever they can. Now, in series wired panels one partial shaded panel effects the whole string of panels output and if one breaks completely the output of the whole set goes to zero until the bad one is replaced or bypassed.

Did you have any of these problems with your R4000? Out of the box I pushed the power button and nothing. Then I plug in the charging cable to my wall outlet and it's been at 70% for 3 hours, so I unplugged it and the unit shut down, at 70% charged. So I pulled up the on/off switch in the back of this unit, then tried to power it up again and it came on, showed the ALLPOWERS symbol then shut back down. Then I tried to charge again with the on/off switch up this time and it's still at 70% for another hour or two.
