Power Station 1000W/666Wh, Mashine Portable Rechargeable Generator Inverter for Camping, RVs, Drones, Outdoor Lighting, with 4 AC Outlets and 4 USB Ports

This is great. Solidly built and works really well.I did wonder whether I had received a faulty unit but that was not the case. When I initially tried to turn it on, the screen did not light after pressing the on button which is a bubble button (one that makes connection when depressing the plastic cover). I therefore thought that maybe because it was not charged and therefore could not light up. I charged the unit and after a few hours the green light came on the charging unit to indicate that it was fully charged, but I still could not turn it on. Knowing that it was charged, I continued to try to turn it on and eventually realised that I had not pressed the on button with enough pressure in a certain direction. I try not to press bubble buttons too hard in case they become fatigued. The screen lit up and now that I know how to press the button correctly, it works every time. I did notice from a review that a customer had received the unit and said that they could not switch it on. Maybe this was the reason that they had a problem.The charging unit has a fan which is good as this keeps the charging unit cool, but the charging speed is quite quick considering that the power station is 1,000 Watts and overheating should not be a problem.I do not find the noise of the power stations fans to be excessive. As you will see below, I got the power station to deal with a problem charging my car battery, but it will also be useful for charging various appliances like phones, laptops and tablets. It will also help in the event of power outages.The main reason I got this power station is because I have a hybrid vehicle and because I do not do much mileage, the 12V battery discharges over time with the result that I have had to jump start my vehicle at least 15 times over the last few months. I tried a solar panel trickle charger and while this will probably do the job of keeping the battery charged, solar panels will not charge a flat battery plus low light levels in winter do not help.I park my car in the street so I can not run a power line to my car to use a mains powered battery charger. I was therefore pleased to find this power station which allows me to run a battery charger from the power station.I can recommend this power station to anyone who is in a similar position, so to assist anyone who is having similar problems, I will provide details of the set up I use for my Toyota Yaris Cross Hybrid car.As I stated earlier I have a solar panel trickle charger and I have a lead connected to the 12V battery situated under the rear seat. That lead has a SAE connector and I attach another lead with a SAE connector which has insulated crocodile clamps. This allows the battery charger to be connected to the battery. It is important that the positive (red) and negative (black) leads from the battery are connected to the crocodile clamps correctly i.e. red to red, black to black. Some SAE leads are reverse polarity which swaps this connection, but this can be corrected using a SAE reverse polarity connector. Insulated crocodile clamps are a must because you do not want the positive and negative leads to touch by accident.It is then just a question of plugging the battery charger into the power station using a standard mains plug, switching on the power station and selecting the AC button. The fans in the power station will dispel any heat produced but take care not to do this in hot weather just to be on the safe side. Always follow the instructions for the battery charger correctly as some chargers can suffer damage if used in hot conditions. The battery charger instructions should provide this information.

is a powerful and useful thing to have not just incase of emergency but leisure as well. capacity of electricity stroage is sufficient but can be improve in future .size is just right and charging time is acceptable. overall machine is outstanding and prices are reasonable

This MASHINE power station arrived quickly, infact almost next day by fedex, Amazon show delivery time as much longer.It arrived double boxed and marked fragile. I've unpacked and it looks an excellent bit of kit , very good price compared with others available.Good communications from the seller.I am looking at going off grid in my campervan so this MASHINE power station will be very useful. I hope its long lasting, but have extended the warranty from 1 -2 years.

Excellent product. It was delivered 2 days before the the original delivery date. It came 100% charged and ready to use. I’ve had 2 days of playing with it. It is currently providing power to my tv, virgin media box and ps4. It is providing endless power effortlessly. I’ve vacuumed the carpets, it provided the power for the vacuum cleaner. I’ve small 600w kettle and it boiled it twice. It’s charged my iPhone, powered a fan. It’s still giving power. It’s built well and will handle most jobs. The fan is noisy but not overpowering noise. It’s the perfect backup, adequate for most needs, camping, motorhome. For £169.99 it’s a bargain, in many ways a perfect weekend getaway wild camping, maybe more if only providing entertainment and phone/computer power. If using kettles or other kitchen power it would drain too quickly. Having solar charging may be a solution. I gave it 4. But really deserves 5 for value.

This powerbank is solid, it works well, charges pretty quickly and holds the charge nicely.

Brilliant. Value for money. It's reliable and let's you charge equipment whilst charging the unit so you don't have to let the level run down.

The power station works decently, and has a long battery life while being relatively lightweight and compact for what is can be used to charge. It’s been easy to use for multiple electronics and has a high power capacity. I’ve been able to power a portable PC with it.

Turned up 100% battery plugged phone in and it dropped down straight away, won't charge on mains and started to smoke, sell wants videos but no way plugging it back in as concerned it will catch fire. Wanting refund but seller doesn't except returns. Money wasted as I brought 2. Both the same issue. Not recommended.
