You can calculate the runtime of the power station by using the following formula: Operating time = Wh (watt hours) of the Explorer * 0.

The setup was pretty simple: I used one of those cheap light timers you employ when you go off on holiday and want your lights to go on/off so it looks like someone is home, and used the same LED grow light. With 2 USB ports and a C USB they cover the range of mobile phones and devices that we have in out home. The built-in LED light features three modes, light, strobe, and SOS, very useful and handy for the camping night, blackout and emergency. The cigarette style charger covers our cooler/fridge box for trips out and about and the 3 pin A/C takes care of our lap top charging. These power stations are always a compromise between weight and capacity, but for somebody who just wants to charge a few devices, run some led lights or other low powered stuff, this is ideal.pounds, but armed with 296wh capacity and 300W AC output, EnginStar portable power station can provide enough juice to charge your phones, laptop, camera, cpap, drone, etc. SUPERIOR SAFE PROTECTION SYSTEM: Advanced battery management system enables voltage control, temperature control, and built-in multiple safe-charging designs to provide short circuit protection, overcharging protection, overload protection to improve battery utilization. There is no need for gasoline, with no fumes produced, and extremely low maintenance - perfect for home usage.

Its compact size, lightweight design, and multiple output options make it a reliable choice for various outdoor activities and emergency situations. So my wife has been starting some seeds under a LED grow light inside, so I thought I'd try charging the EnginStar up with one of my solar charging panels and then use it to run the LEDs, figuring they didn't take too much power and it would give me a chance to see how the power station performed. I set the timer to run the lights continuously, and set the time to exactly midnight so that when the power station ran out of power I could see how long it had run.The biggest issue though, as other reviews have pointed out, is the inaccurate display information 😕Output charge rates seem fine, though on AC (3 pin plug) anything under 20w doesn't show, well at least on mine ot didn't. That seemed odd to have fallen off so quickly compared to how it started, and I wondered that since it hadn't gone through a full discharge/recharge cycle that perhaps it wasn't giving the best possible performance.
