What power station can the PS400 charge?

It works with most portable power stations that accept MC4 or XT-60 input, including Anker SOLIX models. Check your station's maximum solar input voltage and current to avoid overloading it.

How long does it take to charge a power station?

Under optimal sunlight, Anker says it can charge a 1000Wh power station in about 4–5 hours. Real-world times vary with sun angle, clouds, and the station's charging limits.

Is the PS400 waterproof?

Yes, it has an IP67 rating, meaning it is protected against dust and water immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. The junction box and cables should still be kept dry.

Can I use the PS400 to charge a phone or laptop directly?

No, it does not have built-in USB ports. It outputs DC power through MC4 connectors, so you need a power station or a separate charge controller to power devices.

Does it come with cables?

Yes, the box includes a 2× 9.84 ft MC4 extension cable and an MC4 to XT-60 converter, plus a welcome guide.

How portable is the PS400?

It folds for transport and has a carry handle, but at 400W it is large and heavy compared with smaller panels. It is best for car camping or RV use rather than backpacking.
