Seriously the BEST Power Station I've ever reviewed.. Vanpowers Super Power PRO 

The Vanpowers site linked here seems to sell only e-bikes and accessories. The product link provided in the description goes to a page that doesn't exist, and Amazon does not have this product.

So which came first the Zendure or the Vanpower? Serious question... they are the same device.

3 things I'd like to see though would be 1: Normal USB ports because there are quite a few rechargeable things that use Micro to recharge (flashlights, phones, lanterns, etc), 2: Battery expandability of some kind (The Pecron really sets the standard here), and 3: better solar charging because 60v really isn't much when you deal with a standard 100w panel that's VoC is 22v limiting you to 2s3p connections and if you're using "24v" panels you can't put any in series without blowing the SCC inside.

This is exactly the same as the Zendure Super Base Pro 2000 which came out a year ago.

Good review, thanks for putting in the effort. I wish I had a reason to need something like this, but my boring self doesn't do anything cool.

I totally agree my brother. this is hands down one of the best that I have ever reviewed! this generator has so many great things about it that you just cant make a video long enough to show everything.

You've sold me and I don't even need one. I love your unrestricted enthusiasm. I had to keep watching just because you were so into it.

There is not one negative review on this device anywhere on the interwebs and the relationship between Zendure and Vanpowers remains a mystery. Most videos state the Vanpowers unit was "sent" to them so whether they get affiliate commission or not, you still have to wonder if this "gift" has influenced their review. So here it goes ... a real review by someone that bought and paid for this directly from Vanpowers. My unit is either defective or nobody has fully tested the "UPS" feature. Ordered 11/12/22. Received in about a week. Setup went fine and approximately 600 Watts of Servers, Mini PC's and other gear was plugged in. Things seemed fine until one day at work I looked at the app and saw the battery draining and the input power at 0. Figuring this was by design, and once the battery charge dropped to a certain level the unit would resume charging, I waited. When it dropped to 5% battery power I was on the phone with my wife scrambling to figure out how to shut-down devices before it died. And die it did. Never resumed charging even though it was plugged in to a fully operational 120 outlet. Contacted support on 11/30/22 with a detailed description of the problem and received a reply in broken chinglish asking questions that were already answered. Played the back and forth game and was eventually informed the device needed a firmware update and they were "working on it". Once uploaded to their servers I was to flash the firmware and all would be good. 2023 rolls around and still no firmware. During the preceding weeks the unit on several occasions mysteriously powered down with more than 50% charge remaining. I was actually in the room one time when this happened and YES, the AC just turned off taking all my devices with it. No buttons were hit and no configuration changes were made by me. At this point I took it out of service (should have done it sooner) and sent another nasty-gram to support (and I use that term loosely). More of the same questions, more back and forth and finally I was informed to return the unit for repair. They told me they would update the firmware and fully test the machine before sending it back. They also provided a shipping label and it got back to them in two days. I sent them a copy of the tracking delivery receipt and they replied they would expedite. A few days went by and I inquired about status. No reply. Low and behold the returned unit was on my doorstep the next day. So kudos to them for the quick turn around. I set everything back up and the next morning I awoke to the AC light off, No Input voltage, and 5 or 6 dead devices. I took it out of service and contacted "support" requesting a refund. Guess what? I received a reply saying this is a new issue and requires a firmware update. Oh and here's 50 euros if you can wait. First off I didn't pay in "EUROS" and NOPE not playing the game anymore. So I disputed the charge with my Credit card company and demanded a return label. Still waiting to hear back. Bottom line... There is no way I would trust this device as a UPS and Vanpowers support apparently can't understand English. I was more than patient as I really loved the idea of a UPS that could run my equipment for an extended period. Unfortunately there is NO WAY I can trust this device or the company behind it. Oh, another thing. Right after my device was originally delivered I received an email saying thank you and they would pay me $50 for a review. At least the email said I would get USD. Something stinks and I'm not going to smell it anymore. PS ... I am a long time Byte my Bits viewer but first time commentor. I have copied the above and am seriously considering posting it under other reviews. Just wanted Jason to know he was FIRST.

As a follow-up to my previous post (see below from about 4 months ago). Vanpowers did ultimately refund my money so I guess good on em' for that. I'm writing today because I just received an email from them stating my 4G function would be disabled if I didn't pay $29 for another year of access. Nice of them to outline that upfront (not). Not only did they think I still had the unit this is pretty much bait and switch. Glad I returned it.

Great review, but I'm so confused here. Is Vanpower and Zendure the same company? I currently have Zendure Superbase Pro 2000 as well as Superbase Pro 1500, it's 100% identical to Vanpower not only in spec, but the look of it too.

I purchased one and am having a hard time returning it. App doesn't work, customer service is absolutely horrible.

Only 120V input charging from the wall, you can not use it in Europe, only US or countries that have 120V standard at homes.

This unit is also sold as the Zendure Portable Power Station.

Awesome review and such a nice power station which is fully packed with features. I have the EcoFlow Delta MAX 2000WH power station and love it, but this thing has 4G connection, how cool. Thanks for a great video again.

FIRSTEST what would be REALLY cool is if it had a removable smaller 30000mAh that you could detach and take with you - that had an AC outlet and USBC PD and wirelss built in to it.

$1800 for anyone wondering

Many people who want such units do NOT want to have to use an app and do NOT want a location device on it....

When I click the Vanpower link above, I get NordVPN? Weird. Loved you enthusiasm. Great review. Thank you for creating.

this is a mix of NMC and LiFePO battery. they don't state the percentages nor do they state that clearly on the website. Also, how fast is the ups feature? how many milleseconds?

Looks like the zendure on amazon

do they produce any for the european market so you can get 240v?

Excellent review. You did not mention that the inverter is pure sine wave! This seems to be a great unit that is well worth the price. Thanks!

I hate when Chinese companies sell the same product under different names. I worked for a Chinese tech manufacturer. We had so many OEMs under us. Such a fragmented business model.

Pretty friggin cool power station! Looking at the manual it comes with two USB-C to USB adapters.

Why does this look like the Zendure Base station pro 2000?

Only thing I think UPS has over this. Replaceable batteries. I wonder how this fares in that respect.

I differ on this review, I own this Zendure Super PRO 2000 for over 10 months, Some of the features doesn't work as promised, UPS, Charge Control, Metrics etc., I use this for load shifting my Refrigerator during Peak hrs, It randomly fails to switchover, Need to monitor daily (I control using Wifi On/Off Switch with a weekly schedule). I set the charge control for 90% but it always does 100%, There are other smaller issues which are very minor for me. Just 3 days ago, The unit failed and now it shows 0% and I am unable to reset. reached out to zendure still waiting to hear from them. From past experience they take anywhere from 2 to 3 days to respond, hoping they will respond by monday. This clearly shows they dont have enough experience in this area and needs work more .

And you can have all of this for a cool $1800😂

Looks just like a Zendure. I'm guessing it's made by the same company.

Hello, great video! I have a question about solar charging. Does this Vanpowers have 70v input minumum? I already have a solar setup of four 100w, 12v panels, 2 in series then parallel for my AC200 Bluetti. Will my current setup work with this Vanpowers? Thank you!

All good fun but when you go to the links you provided the official site link only mentions an e-bike and the product link says error. 🤔

Thank you!!

CAN SOME BODY POST A DOWNLOAD LINK FOR THE APP PLEASE THANKS

The thing I've caught myself looking at is how many recharges they allow. Some I see don't have near the recharge cycles, but has better power ratings. others have a ton of recharge, but the power isn't as clean. I guess you have to decide what is more important to you. for me, cycles is the important thing .

What is the UPS time? How fast does it switch when the grid power goes out?

You still need to censor the E Charleston drive at the top I think.

How is the reaktion time with UPS; does it work in 230 Volt for European use?

Only complaint I have is lack of expansion capability well and that it's not free LOL.

What would you recommend for a grand?

Having its own 4G connection out to the internet... what could possibly go wrong 😑

Despite the awkward hype; this device has some clear flaws; enough to avoid it. First the elephant in the room; the dangerous battery chemistry; Li-NMC which most companies have moved away; the exploding battery chemistry; in other words, NOT SAFE. And then there is no expandability. Come on, you always find the need for more power. Also there is no type A usb port; I have four devices that use type A so it is useful to have one least one port of this type. Pecron is cheaper; safer and the 1500 is the current king with a few other brands that are closing in. Is this a decent power station; yes; would I buy it no; but a few changes would make it viable.

Is Zendure and Vanpowers the same company?

Wow.

This is a warning for potential buyers. I want to share my experiences buying from this company (if you can call it that). This is one of the shadiest company around. Don't expect any after-sales support at all. Therefore no warranty! This is like a one man (couple at best) show based in L.A area importing these from china. These Chinese individuals do not pick up phones, do not respond to voicemails, do not respond to emails. Evidently they also have comprehension issues or that could also be an act, along with the robotic responses. Like the other RU-vid reviewers have discussed, they still haven't fixed the app interface and its still buggy. The unit itself has many quirks. As it stands this guy/company has completely dropped all communications with me and i am at a loss on how to proceed from here.

oh man, you sold it to me

Isn’t this the exact same product as zendure powerbank base pro 2000

Nooooo they only ship to the US and I'm in Canada :(

I think a Honda generator may be a better value.

Solar in put in put......is 1800

Cycle life 2000? seriously how?

just subd ya bro

6Kh needed

I wouldn't get this power station if I were you. i've had one for a few months, it has never worked. Ever. It has never held the advertised amount of charge. I ran a 9w fan and it wouldn't even hold it on all night. The customer service is terrible. If you're reading this, get a different power station.

$1799

This battery so damn bad and terrible they stop making it and selling it haha how much they paid u to talk good about it

First

First, S**k it Nate!!!

Shopping channel. Bye.

ZENDURE knock off......
