I easily get over 380 watts Solar input everyday without clouds. This Pecron power station is excellent. Best bang for your buck out there
what kind of panels are you using?
I have two of the pecron 200 watt panels. They are supposed to be connected in parallel. The e600 easily almost maxes out even in not so good sun
Love this thing. I got mine for $275 unreal deal!!
Wow how?
@@thienthan324 btw, 300$ right now at their website

I appreciate the honesty of this company. I noticed many are naming their product after the larger inverter capacity rather than the battery capacity. People want to know up front how big the battery is. BTW, just found your Tiktok channel.
PECRONS 1200W is on sale for $279 rn!!! Get one while you can 🔥
I had ordered the 2000, but for my credit union stoped my order because of their problem and I went to the Delta 2. The Pecron is what I was looking for. But I do like what I got. This company is hitting on all cylinders for the Solar charge. I don’t know whatever the issue is on the charge of this test. But this test is going through other companies as well. Thumbs up 👍
This thing is almost perfect for my needs except when connected to solar panels. When the sun goes down, the unit goes into a mode where the fans start to run and keep increasing in speed as the unit gets warms. It doesn't stop until you unplug the panels.
Good to know. I just bought this one. I'll keep this in mind.
I just purchased this unit today, and found your video informative. I already have a 400W solar panel for my EcoFlow unit...hope it is compatible. Did you ever determine why at the start of your video the unit charge was down to 1%?
Overall very pleased with my unit.
Some observations re solar charging:
After thorough testing, I can't figure out why solar input to the Pecron E600LFP is relatively low with panels in series (all other configurations, i.e. single panel or in parallel behave as expected).
This is our test results (done with 340 W qcells rigid panels - Voc of 40.91 V and VMPP of 34.10 V):
300 W solar input from a single qcells 340 W panel
270 W solar input from two(!!) qcells 340 W panels connected in series
So even lower input from two panels connected in series, than from a single panel!!??
390 W solar input from two qcells 340 W panels connected in parallel
393 W solar input from three qcells 340 W panels connected in parallel
The MPPT of the E600LFP is apparently working better, when hooking panels up in parallel or even individually (assuming the minimum voltage requirement of 32 V is met). Myself, I have problems getting the "correct"/full solar input when hooking up my Qcells panels in series. In parallel or individually, solar input is as expected.
Thank you for testing and sharing both series and parallel
I have 2 of the e600 and a 200 watt panel. Everything is fine. Use 1 battery for living room kitchen lights and other battery for DC heating tea water and DC cooking with go Sun hybrid trays when sun not out. 90% of my cooking is solar sun or hybrid trays.
Good video, it could be a problem with another panel, or a cable problem. try to another to see, thanks
Nice, but that power brick makes it a No-Go for me. I'd still go for the EF River.
The manual is wrong....if you double the voltage in series, the watts stay the same as one panel---200 watts, in parallel you double the watts, 400 watts for two panels----the voltage stays the same....36 volts, the manual is saying you get 400 watts output whether in series or parallel, that can't happen.
Amp problem maybe? That's been my biggest problem with my E2000 on finding panels to max it out, I can't get six 100 watt panels to get the max 600 watts on each connector because the volts on 6 panels x the volts would be more than the 95 max when in series. Then if you start looking at parallel it has a 15 amp max, so if you look at panels and they are like 9 amps you are looking at 18 which is over. Which I've seen videos where they over amp it but before I spend money on something I like it to be within spec. Maybe the amps are going over which is limiting the voltage?
billdperry questions..For both the Pecron E1500 and the E600; I have 2 vevor 200W panels that are 18 volts each . If I wire them in Parallel as you say, will the volts fall in between the 2 different input ports that each model has and therefore fail to work? I'm a newbee
Can you tell me where you got that MC4-watt meter? I am interested in getting one.
Great review. Thx!!
I use mine every day ànd can use both ac and dc at the same time.
Good review.
What would you think about using this as a UPS. The power goes off weekly, here, day or night, we never know. So having this giving standby power 24x7 would be a good thing for the computers and fans here. That means it is online with the charger brick plugged in all the time. What do you think about that type of use?
Nice video. Thanks. It seems like a really nice unit.
Ya it could work for that. If I were doing it, I would personally go with the Mega 2 instead: oupes.com/products/oupes-mega-2-home-backup-portable-power-station-2500w-2048wh?ref=va1y1jwb. this is my favorite small unit and is very expandable to work with other things in the future which means you spend a lot less money over time.
@@minutemanprepThank you for the speedy answer. I will check out the Mega2 for sure.
Anyone buying these there are a lot of people reporting that the bottom USB ports do not work when the top ports are being used. Mine is having the same issue and pecron is not communicating. My previous comment from a few days ago somehow got deleted somehow.. Kinda phishy
Do you have any update on this?, I'm having the same issue.
@@ElectricalingMusic yeah I got in contact with them and they said by design the 100 watt pd port will shut off the other USB ports when being used as a safety feature. I call bs and that is deceiving. I can't find anywhere on their literature or website where it states this. Honestly I think they effed up and have to band aid the issue with hopes that no one notices. I mean it is a great unit I use it daily, no problems other than that . I do plug in a USB car charger adapter with 1 USB c and an USB a ports for extra ports. Works fine that way.
I notice you said and have in the background the E2000, I have that as well. Does the A/C charger for the E600 charge the E2000 and at how many watts? That would be a + as far as cost effectiveness buying the E600 if that wall charger can also work for my E2000.
Pecron support tells me the E600 comes with the 300W brick and the E 2000 and E1500 use a 600W brick. They didn't answer on the E 600 using the 600W brick. Good news is that charging the expansion battery for the E 1500 separately and independently is possible with solar or AC
They don't show the amps, because they know it's a sucky spec ! I've seen this with some other brands. When the spec is bad, then they try to hide it from the customer.

elsewhere I thought I saw the solar panels can't be connected in series.
Did you test with each panel, individually? That wasn't clear from the video. It seems like one of them wasn't working properly, but maybe both worked well, when not connected in series?
I thought the same thing...
would 4 lion energy 100watt 12 volt solar panels work with the aviation port on the pecron e600lfp?
im wondering why you would test it with 3 200watt panels, you were within volts.
cables? did you figure it out?
my pecron e600lfp is flawless.
Cigarette lighter charging = battery stretcher, at least this is how I use mine.
HELP PLEASE.. my dc output quit working with this model.. any solutions? AC output is working fine I have only had it a month.. thank you guys!
The wireless charger does NOT work on my Galaxy Z-4 fold
can you turn wifi charging off ? or is it on all the time?
Also, I did not get a user manuel
Who do they use to ship this? I Don't trust USPS.
Don't believe everything those generator advertise 😅
