A Fantastic Value! | Allpowers R1500 LiFePO4 Power Station Review 

Absolutely!

Agreed. VTOMAN was the king but Allpowers and a few others are stepping up and offering great budget options

Thanks for watching!

Happy to help. Thanks for watching!

Agreed. Great company in my experience

Thank you and thanks for watching! I just got the R3500 not too long ago and will be tieing it up to 1200w of solar. Excited to share my results and review soon

1200w sounds like a great setup! should charge up that power station within a day or two on pure solar I'd imagine @@EricReviews

Now stepping it up to 1200w. Setup should be done in a month or two

@@EricReviews How do you plan on wiring those panels? R1500 has a max 60v 13a input which means 2 of the 400w panels in series is well over the 60v maximum and over voltage is the best way to kill electronics. 2 in parallel is over the 13a maximum and while that won't cause any issues, it'll limit panel output to 486w max (37.4v x 6.5a x2) I went with 6 of the SF100 flexible panels in 2S3P to max out the R1500 input specs and have successfully got up to 520w from them just laying flat on the grass.

@@darga7281 I'm now doing 1200w of panels and have 6 SF200 panels. I have the Allpowers R3500 as well so I'll be connecting solar to that as a stationary setup. When its time to charge this one, I'll just charge off the R3500 or use the folding 400W panel that I also have from allpowers

Happy to help! Enjoy!

Hi, this information can be found on the "FAQ" section of the manual. Here is the info copy and pasted. Q10. How to turn on/off the Bluetooth & WIFI of the power station? The bluetooth & WIFI is turned off by factory default. Turn it on/off: After turning on the device, press and hold the "DC OUTPUT" button for 3 seconds until the bluetooth & WIFI icon on the display changes. The icon is always on for the on state, the icon disappears to the off state.

@@EricReviews i saw that but when i try and connect it asks for my email, then i get a code. then finally when the last step it says this "please contact the equipment manufacturer and enter the upgrade code.

i forgot to add. i am actually connected, but this happens when i try to upgrade the firmware.

@@user-rp1vu1gk5u Ah. Gotcha. I'm not sure there is any firmware updates so that might be why its saying that

Yep. Charge slower unless you really need that faster charging speed at the time for whatever reason

It would be great if that became the industry standard so we know exactly what we're getting!

Absolutely! One of my favorite power station brands these days.. great bang for your buck units

Yes, this. I just emailed Allpowers for the B1000 expansion battery, and I got a swift reply saying the B1000 will be available from the end of July (2024). So it is definitely coming!
