Portable power station correct use guide

The portable power station has only been available for two or three years, but it has provided an irresistible solution for outdoor power consumption in daily life and outdoor work. Whether it is aerial photography, surveying and mapping exploration, mobile medical care, self-driving travel, picnic camping, entertainment, all walks of life are empowered by portable power stations to enjoy a safer, more portable, more efficient and environmentally friendly power consumption experience.

How does the power supply work when charging and using at the same time?

This problem requires two cases:

If the output power is less than the input power, there is no need to take power from the battery, then you can directly supply power to the device and recharge the battery if there is surplus power.

If the output power is greater than the input power, it needs to take power from the battery. If the battery is not charged, it still needs to consume power, and the more it is charged, the less it will be.

Does charging while using affect the life of the power supply?

If the output power is greater than the input power, it needs to take power from the battery. This situation is equivalent to using the portable power station directly, which will naturally increase the number of cycles of the battery, which will affect the life of the battery.

Of course, what really affects the life of the power supply is not charging while using it, but the temperature. The ideal charging temperature for portable power stations is 0-40°C, charging under high temperature conditions will affect the life of the power supply.

In addition, the power supply will generate heat when charging, and we will also generate heat when using electrical appliances. If the temperature generated by both working at the same time is high, it is recommended not to use it while charging.

Will the number of cycles be counted while charging and using?

Generally, the cycle charge and discharge times of lithium batteries are about 500 times, and the same is true for portable power stations. A complete charge and discharge (full charge and use up) is a cycle! So you don't have to worry about increasing the number of cycles of the power supply while charging and using it.

Should the newly purchased power supply be emptied and recharged?

In fact, lithium batteries have no "memory effect", so there is no reason why a newly purchased portable power station must be discharged and then fully charged at once. On the contrary, lithium batteries are afraid of deep charging and deep discharging. Every time the power supply is used up, it will be charged, which will affect the life of the power supply.

It is usually recommended to charge to 90%, and it is best to charge shallowly: for example, if there is 20% left, 30% can be charged, and there is no need to recharge after running out of electricity.
