Baldr Pioneer 500 Portable Power Station and Solar Generator Review 

You bet! Thanks for the feedback.

You’re welcome! Glad you liked it. Thanks for the feedback.

You are welcome! It is going to depend on the refrigerator and how many watts the compressor draws. Just for anyone that reads this later, when we talk about running the fridge we are talking about how long it can run my compressor to cool it, not when it is just running the lights and control board. As far as my wattage usage goes, my compressor can run for approximately 2 hours to cool the fridge down from full battery to 0. If I connect the solar panel then I could increase this time by approximately 45 minutes to an hour due to my average wattage usage and depending on the sun exposure level. Again, this is my fridge which is rated at a maximum of 5.3 amps (pretty standard). All fridges vary though and older ones may require more to start them due to age and less efficiency. For me it took about 40- 45 minutes to cool from 55 degrees Fahrenheit to 37 degrees Fahrenheit. My Samsung fridge cools very quickly as do many other brands but not all brands cool as fast as others. In fact, a few are pretty slow. So in my case, I am going to be able to cool the fridge down to where it needs to be and once it finishes it's cycle, I can be charging the power station with the solar panel to be ready for the fridge needing to start another cycle later on. Most fridges should keep temperature in a safe range for at least 4 hours as long as the doors are not being opened regularly. Sorry for the long response, there are just a lot of variables that can come into play. Hope I was able to answer your question.

@@HowToHomeDIY thanks for expounding.

You can hear the fans kick on but It's really not very loud at all.

Hmm I’ve not had that happen so I may only be able to help so much. But when does it shut off?

Are u at least double strength watts

Yes. On my fridge it never went higher than 400 some watts on startup and while it was cooling the highest it got was 260 watts. Definitely happy with it being able to handle it.

@@HowToHomeDIY Thanks! Great info.

They must be selling a bunch of them now. I found another one for you. Thanks a lot for letting me know! amzn.to/38IWOX4

Well it wasn't exactly free, doing tech videos like this are actually pretty involved and time consuming. Also, I was free to say whatever the heck I wanted to because I accepted no payment. I was offered to be paid but I turn it down to make sure I can give you and everyone else an honest review. Don't like it? Don't buy it. Makes no difference to me.
