The Red-E Portable Power Station 512

The Red-E Portable Power Station 512 is built for South African load-shedding, using ultra-safe lithium iron phosphate cells rated for over 3000 charge cycles. It delivers 800W of continuous output (1600W surge) through 3 USB-C PD ports, 2 USB-A ports, a 12V car socket and a standard SA 3-prong plug, and switches to UPS mode within milliseconds to keep routers, lights and small appliances running during an outage. A 400W AC input recharges it in around 2 hours, and it also accepts up to 200W of solar input for off-grid charging.
