Excellent variety of outputs to connect up to10 devices within the overall 1000W limit.
A 1100Wh Li-On battery outputs 1000W continuous and 2000W peak power.
The use of aluminum alloy in the device's construction gives you better durability.
One of the more powerful and heavier devices at 26.5lbs but providing considerably more output than many other models on the market. Despite its weight it's fairly compact at 12.6x10.2x9.1 inches and is aimed especially at power users who want to make the most of the freedom for instance that RV camping and traveling offers.
An advanced Battery Management System (BMS) ensures the stability and longer life of the non-replaceable 1100Wh lithium-ion battery by providing protection against:
The unit contains a fan to keep it within its operating temperature when being charged and when powering devices.
The unit will not turn off automatically when on and not in use so ensure to manually turn it off once you have finished using an AC port to avoid draining the battery unnecessarily. The DC ports will, however, switch off within 30 seconds when no load is attached.
The MARS-1000W can be charged by at least three methods: AC wall outlet, one or two solar panels - and a car's 12V socket. And using a portable generator provides an additional method.
Recharge times can vary according to ambient conditions, but as a very general guide you can expect times of about:
The control panel is simple and dominated by the multiple outputs and inputs. An easy to read small LCD panel is included so you can monitor the operation and condition of the device.
The excellent set of multi-functional outlets are shown below and include:
The three 1000W continuous AC outlets have an impressive momentary surge (peak) of 2000W, and their Pure Sine Wave output provides a safe and steady stream of power much the same as that from your home AC wall outlets, so you can safely connect sensitive electronic devices.
What sets portable power stations apart from portable generators is their virtually silent operation and much safer use in general. For example, they are much lighter in weight, you don't need to make arrangements for the safe storage of fuel and they do not give off any of the toxic carbon monoxide gas. They are also one of the only solutions for people living in apartments. Nevertheless, portable power stations can be a useful addition for people who own a portable generator for use when power needs are limited.
Out on the trail, camping or trekking, the MARS-1000W combined with one or preferably two Lipower 100W Solar panels will provide you with an almost unlimited source of independent power.
The MARS-1000W comes with a good selection of accessories that include an adapter for connecting a Solar Panel.
The MARS-1000W has a 24-month warranty that applies solely to the original owner and cannot be transferred.
Here is the User Manual for this model.
Remember that the AC output ports can charge devices only up to 1000W. To protect the unit, it will shut down automatically when this limit is exceeded causing an overload condition.
Yes, but ensure the power station has at least 10% power remaining. (Also, if putting the unit into storage, recharge it every 3 to 6 months to ensure a longer battery cell life cycle).
You can use a DC to MC4 (Anderson) cable to connect solar panel(s). One is included in the box.
Recharging times can be affected by ambient conditions, but you can expect about 8 hours with two 100W solar panels connected and 17 hours with a one such panel.
No, this is because Li-on batteries can be volatile and become unstable. Additionally, the total battery size far exceeds what is normally permitted by the TSA for reasons of safety.
The only sound you may hear is the cooling fan, but this may only be audible when standing near close by.
