@@KAIZORIANEMPIRE I hear you. Fortunately I've evolved beyond the need for South Africa's TV services, whether from the national broadcaster or the overpriced, substandard cable provider. Furthermore, I only use the Gizzu when my laptop runs down - I can get +5 hours out of it when I use it non-stop. Additionally, I'm not a juvenile who wastes time gaming, so my laptop serves its purpose as a workhorse. Finally, when the fibre goes during loadshedding I have portable WiFi to meet my needs for work and entertainment streaming. I will admit to being a slave to Netflix and RU-vid but that is a deficiency I will confess to having in my character. No doubt you can tell what my interests REALLY are by my avatar.
@@SeboleloKhanyela It has been a lifesaver for us, especially when there was cable theft in our area! I would, however, suggest purchasing a bigger model, or the Gizzu UPS for powering the router (cable theft necessitated the additional purchase). The 150w keeps my laptop and portable wifi running when loadhshedding hits at work, so it is more than paying for itself. However, to run your laptop and your router, I'd suggest a bigger one. I am still very happy with mine, though.
I recently bought one from takealot it powers ON but when we have loadshedding it doesn't come ON which is really strange and its very NEW and I suspect it also took out my Gizzu UPS which not charging now
I’m planning on doing a battery drain test, and a battery charge test. It would be interesting to see what challenges people are experiencing so I can try and help where possible 🙏🏾
That’s a beast of a phone bro, most iPhones peak at about 27W. Anyway, the portable power station has a PD port rated at 45W. I believe that’s still very fast for the majority of people. 😅
yes of course but you can reach out to me for advice on how to get maximum power. The normal battery 12 v will only charge it up to 100 watts per hour... meaning you can only use one or two appliances, like a tv and laptop. if you want more power you can connect two 12 volt batteries in series to make it 24 volt meaning you could get 200 wats an hour into your system.. or you can buy a step up volt converter for $20 lol to convert 12 volt to 24 volt and get the same effect.
IT'S CHEAPER TO JUST BUY A VERY CHEAP 200 AH GEL BATTERY AND BUY A "DUAL INVERTER CHARGER", YOU CAN GET THOSE FOR $180 OR LESS, AND THAT'S 2400 WATT HOURS, DOUBLE THIS ONE, AND FRACTION OF THE PRICE.
Boss the gel battery is rubbish. My battery died in 6 months on the mecer inverter I purchased. 9k wasted. Loadshedding gave it a beating. The gizzu is running for over 1 year and still lasts. Why ? Because it's a Lithium battery. Lithium is king.
