Predator 600 Watt Power Station

[Burnt Money]

I just bought one of these from Harbor Freight. Does anyone else have one of these? I’m going to start messing around with it and see what all it will power and for how long. I will update the thread incase anyone else is looking at getting one. I figured I might as well be the Ranger 5G Guinea Pig lol.

Really depends what you’re using it for. At 120v and 600w, you’re getting 5 amps out of it. That’s not even enough to run a hairdryer… Might be enough to charge a laptop and a couple phones. For me, 600w isn’t nearly enough power. Especially considering they call it an “emergency power source”. I guess it technically is but not really… Not trying to knock your purchase but honestly, I’d return it and get your money back. You basically spent several hundred dollars on a glorified phone charger.

I love these and think everyone should have one especially if you're in an area prone to outages. They've come down considerably in price since I bought mine and came in handy when we lost power in AR running basic lights and small appliances.

I have a Bluetti EB55 which I bought 4 years ago which can output 700W and can peak out at 1,400W. I mainly use it to power my 12v cooler when we're traveling and hiking . I can leave it running in the truck all day in over 100* temps and it'll only be down 30%. I wanted one with the LiFePO4 batteries because they have a much longer charge cycle (2,500 charges before reaching 80% capacity) where Li-Ion average 500-800 cycles, plus they are safer to use.
