Our verdict · Researched
4.3 / 5

A dependable, sensibly-sized 1kWh unit with long-life LFP cells and unusually fast mains recharging, which makes it well suited to short-notice outages. It is one of the safest default choices in this class, provided you match its capacity to what you actually need to run.

Best for
Keeping a fridge, router, phones and a few lights running through a multi-hour power cut.
Skip it if
You only need to keep phones, a tablet and a laptop going

Researched, not used. We haven't used this product. This review is built from the maker's specifications, owner reports and our own sizing.

What we like

  • Long-life LFP battery (3,000+ cycles) backed by a 5-year warranty, so it should outlast cheaper lithium rivals
  • Recharges from flat to 80% in around 50 minutes on a standard UK socket, useful before a forecast storm
  • 1,800W output (2,400W via X-Boost) covers most household essentials, and capacity expands to 2,048Wh with an add-on battery

Worth knowing

  • At ~12kg it is a two-hands lift rather than something you'll carry far
  • The cooling fan is audible under heavy load, and 1,024Wh won't run high-draw items like a kettle or electric heater for long

ⓘ As an Amazon Associate, PreparedBritain earns from qualifying purchases. We may earn a commission when you buy, or a fee when you request a quote, through our links. When two products are close, commission can decide which one we pick. A clearly better product always wins. Amazon prices come from Amazon's own product data and show the date and time they were retrieved. Prices at other retailers are checked by us, less often. Prices and stock can change at any time, so always check the retailer's price before you buy.

Who shouldn't buy this

You only need to keep phones, a tablet and a laptop going — a £60-90 power bank does that for a fraction of the cost and weight; step up to this only if you need to run mains appliances like a fridge or router.

How this review works

This is a Researched review: we haven't used this product. We check every specification against at least two independent sources, re-check the UK price on a schedule where we can track it automatically, and say plainly who it isn't for. Commissions never change a rating.
