Overview
Plugging in a kettle, microwave or hair dryer is within reach of the SolarPlay station, which stores energy in a lithium iron phosphate battery. It recharges from the wall, solar, a car socket or a generator, and this bundle adds a panel.
A panel in the box and fast dual charging make it a ready made backup kit. Solar input is limited compared with the battery size, so sun alone takes a long time to fill it.
Who it's for
Suited to families preparing for outages and people camping several nights in a row. Anyone relying on solar alone should look for higher solar input.
Pros and cons
- Solar panel included
- Fast dual charging
- Adjustable input power levels
- Many port types
- Modest solar input
- Heavy to carry
Performance notes
Run time is stored energy against the load, so high wattage appliances drain it quickly. Choosing a lower input level slows charging but eases strain on the battery. The battery management system watches cell voltage and temperature.
