Powapacs Atom 78

This is a great battery if you want to charge basic items while away camping. It’s great for charging phones, iPads, lights, fans and anything up to 150w. It won’t power anything with an element so kettles, toasters or hair dryers it will just switch off. I tried to power a small table too fridge and it wouldn’t work. I powered a 12v cool box and it ran it for about 4 hours constant. It also powered my 50” tv for about 2 hours. So you have to bare in mind it’s not going to keep you camping for days if you expect to power TVs etc... but i have been powering our phones and iPads for 5 days and it’s still got 45% power left. The solar panel is great too (60w). Baring in mind it’s January, we had a sunny day and it charged the atom 10% in an hour which is good as the sun isn’t at its strongest.Summery: It’s great to recharge your small items like phones etc... while off grid but don’t think it will charge everyday home items.

Used this for my cpap machine easily powered it for one night would probably do two or more.Came in a nice case and is suprisingly light , comes with a number of different leads for mobiles etc.

used this on a 50w lamp for when im fishing and i got just under 10hrs use out of it, i have resulting in having to buy a suitcase generator for the purpose of what i need it for, i think over all you would get alot more out of it if you was only charging the basics like phones ect, i will give it 3 stars for anything like a laptop or lamp, 5 stars for charging phones and stuff

Having spent many years travelling in my small campervan, one thing to know is a must. Be realistic and learn what amps and volts are. Learn about the devices you need to power and be realistic. I love to stealth camp, so no solar or chimneys poking out top of my Citroen Berlingo. The power pac charges well from the cigarette lighter socket and holds the charge well. I power all my USB cabled devices. Phone, Tablet, toothbrush, in van lighting,shaver,wifi three device, a multi USN extension socket. Everything else such as laptop uses a 300w inverter bought for £42 form here. That's it. Everything I need is catered for. One of the issues I have found with reviews is people truly do not understand power output/usage. Never rely on one source either, have redundancies and never be without the juice you need. I would recommend this device as it works perfectly fine, if you know and realise it has limits like all power packs.

Awful. Charged it up as directed. Took it in the case camping. It was off and had already drained itself to 47% when I came to use it. Totally useless if it can't hold charge for more than a few hours.

I bought this to power my Cpap machine while weekend camping. Tried it at home for a night - it seemed to drain the battery down to 25% in 5 hours but the worst thing was the internal battery fan kept coming on and off - and it wasn't even a warm night - it woke me up several times - so not fit for that purpose in my experience.On the flip side the company provide a great customer service, delivery and collection (returned for a refund) and so I would feel confident buying anything from them again.

purchased primarily for powering my cpap machine when regular mains power wasnt acessable lasted for 2 nights which wasn't as expected then the mains socket broke and couldnt use the socket any more returned back and got refund unit feels like its not that well made and is all plastic and just doesnt feel like its well manufactured or made to last
