Takki 250W Portable Power Station 222Wh Camping Backup Lithium Battery with Pure Sine Wave AC Outlet 110V Solar

Works well. The solar charging didn't seem to work overly well. Didn't seem to charge it past 30%. If you manually charge it from the wall it works great. So far it has lasted me a few months with no real disappointments. Works great for pop up events when I need just that little bit of extra power. Read more

I’m really happy this Takki 7500 mAh unit came with so many accessories! I wasn’t sure it would come with everything needed for the solar panel, but it does! It also comes with wall charger and car chargers! I like how I could just throw all of this in the back-pack and go, especially since it doesn’t weigh very much. I haven’t tried it out yet, but the unit came on when I pushed the power button. It is full charging now - so I will update if there’s any issues. It looks like a pretty cool small unit … which is exactly what I need to get power small items in case of the power outage. (It was packed extremely well for shipment.) Read more

Great product, not only saying so. It does a great job in powering my farm shed for hours of night work. I have 3 - 18w LED bulbs that stay on for about 4-5 hrs on full charge. 1 - 18w bulb will last the entire night and longer. Carry it with me everywhere, small and compact. Great value for good quality. Great buy. Read more

I think I’ll be returning this talking portable solar generator. For $88 I wasn’t expecting much from a 110W product, and the device itself is actually pretty good. I tested it with my AC outlet, and it charged my phone in about 30 minutes same as a regular charger. It’s very small, convenient, and handy to have. Updated three weeks after having this product. Was charging the device via Ac outlet charger became very hot. The power station only showing one light when it's fully charged. That's about it end of the power station However, I bought it about two weeks before Black Friday, and the price dropped afterward. Now I can get a 300W model for the same price, so this one no longer feels worth the cost. Because of that, it just didn’t meet my satisfaction for the price I paid. Read more

I just picked this up today and, so far, it's great! Lightweight, portable, ready to go, small size. As you can see from the picture, the solar panel is larger than the generator. Charging it outside now. There was some juice already so I could see how bright the light is. Take advice from the manual and don't look at it. It's bright. I'll update again after using it a bit. UPDATE: I'm a little disappointed. This takes forever to charge! I spent a couple hours outside charging with the solar panel and barely got 1 bar. I finished charging by plugging it in and it still took hours. Additionally, it won't power my 120v electric kettle and the small light I use only stays on a short while. I was able to get a couple of charges on my phone and small, portable power source but I'm considering returning it. Maybe there is something wrong with this one and I should troubleshoot...? Will do that and update again. LAST UPDATE: I figured out how to power my light. It turns off after a few seconds no matter if I choose AC power or use the USB attachment. When it turns off I switch it up. For instance, if I click on AC power, the lights for both AC and USB turn on. When my light goes off I switch off the AC power leaving only USB and then it stays on. It works the other way too. If I start just USB, then I have to hit AC. I'm disappointed that I can run my kettle off of it but I found another solution to that and I do like this little generator, even if it takes 5 hours to charge fully. This is definitely single person use and needs to be charged often. If I were to do it again, I would get one with more power that I can actually plug things into. So far, only the USB and C ports are useful to me. Read more

I am very disappointed with this product. I finally needed to use it just 12 days after my return/exchange window closed and found out it was trash. I guess it's my fault for not testing it out too long. But my biggest issue is that it was fully charged and our power went out. I plugged in a fan and our router and it was working just fine for about 30 mins. One cell did deplete leaving me three cells. I turned it off then later returned to use it again this time only plugging my sports watch into the USB and within 20 minutes, it dies. I had no clue it was about to die, but I am now left with no source of power in my house until electricity is restored. Very disappointing seeing as how I only needed a temporary solution expecting it to last a least a couple of hours but only getting about and hour of use with a full charge. Read more

The powerstation itself charged an ipad for 5 hours very slowly, but when we needed to plug in LED lights it died really quickly without any notice. You cant tell how much juice it has left because the lights blink as opposed to being solid. After charging the solar panel for several hours across multiple days we decided to plug it in to power the lights at our fireworks stand and it did so for a measly 30 minutes before leaving us in the dark. It has jacks for 2 plugs, 4 USB, a C connector, and a 12V plug but could not handle 2 things plugged in for more than 10 minutes before dying. I would be very hesistant to buy this and expect it to power a weekend camping trip. Overall, very disappointing, especially the solar panel. Had I known the solar could only power 1 thing at a time and only run LED lights for 10 minutes after 10s of hours of charging, I would've bought a bigger box without solar for a cheaper price. It needs charging every night anyway. My first foray into solar and it was a major flop. I only gave it 3 stars because it kept my ipad POS powered for a few hours. Maybe I expected too much?
