NEW iTechWorld PS3600 Power Station - SO MUCH POWER - Should I Buy It?

hi everybody it's Peter zams greeny flick adventure 8 welcome to another video today I'm going to be talking about power stations for my four-wheel drive Adventures as you probably know I am an affiliate of itch world and I use a number of their power stations in my vehicles as well as home they've released a whole bunch of new power stations and there's one particular one that I'd like to get and add to the collection that I already have let's check it out [Music] so let's have a look what I've got of itch world now in my adventure Vehicles my main vehicle is the uh troopy here goes anywhere all over Australia you would have seen some of my videos on my channel of course um so I've got the itch World 1300 p in my troopy and that's I find that to be ideal it's a good right combination of size weight uh and power to suit my needs induction cooking and also the way I've set up my new configuration I can be up on the roof in the rooftop tent or I can actually sleep inside the troop here as well and the 300p is good enough for um a blow heater uh set up the low setting heating set setting to just heat up the cabin before go to bed and also good for induction cooking so that uh and of course I got solar panels so I can actually charge that up as well so that's the 1300 p in the uh in the tripping I've also got the jump starter the uh the js8 in just in the drawer in the kitchen there so if for some reason I flatten the battery or the battery is getting old then at least I've got my backups starting system as well yeah and uh also I can run the fridge I do have an auxiliary battery underneath just a lead acid battery under the Bonnet and that uh that runs the fridge but then if I'm running low on the auxiliary battery then I usually use the uh Power Station for running the fridge uh particularly if I'm uh staying somewhere for any length of time not using the car then I in in inevitably I end up using the power station together with the solar blankets so looking at the high luux I call this my Urban camper the Weekender um because it's got the Aly cab canopy camper here that roof lifts up and I can get in from the back and into bed so that makes it really simple in this one I've got the itch world ps2000 and that's uh an uninterruptable power supply as well so besides being my uh I suppose one of my main power sources for my hux I do also have a lead acid battery in here as auxiliary battery but it's not in very good condition and very low capacity and you can't you run it for a while and then it runs flat so inevitably my ps2000 is uh the main auxiliary battery that I use and I can charge it charge it up at campsites using 240 volts charges up really quickly and more or I can use the solar panel on the roof or the foldout solar panels that I have for my tech world as well and uh I need to get a another jump start for this one I don't have one for this car oh just a quick note while you're watching this video I'm not sure whether you're new but I associated with a number of companies and those companies can provide discounts to my viewers and subscribers so all you need to do is go to adventure8 com.au just click on the website yeah so go shop discounts and you find all the different companies that I'm associated with so for example swiftex so you can set up a crypto exchange and get $10 worth of free Bitcoin itch world for camping lithium batteries backup systems for your home red tiger for dash cams Vanos electric bikes and all sorts of different discount levels are available and there are discount codes associated with each one of those whether it be Venture a or something else so just go to the website hope you can take advantage of the discounts and back to the video the ps2000 is an uninterruptable power supply which isn't really that critical for me while I'm camping but it is a unit that I take to my home and uh if I I have a home in a location where the power supply does go off from time to time the mains uh which means I can take the ps2000 take it into the house and I can just plug it between the refrigerator or my computers and it will use Main's power while it's got that and then if for some reason there's a power failure it can just cut in straight away and keep on whatever apparatus I'm using operating instantly so that's the advantage of the ps2000 you can have power going straight through from the mains directly to your appliances or your computers without actually using the lithium batteries and then when power fails then the lithium batteries cut in straight away big advantage of that so that's uh that's why I'm thinking of the the new Power Station the PS 3600 pretty impressive now I haven't ordered it yet but I'm planning to order and uh but let's have a look at the website and then we can have a look bit a bit more we'll get a bit more information about what the PS 3600 has over the the smaller unit that I already have with the ps2000 okay so we'll just go into itch world's website itch world.com do all right here we go okay so we're on the itic World website and needless to say they've got all sorts of stuff lithium battery uh Power stations jump starters so if your battery does go flat in your car then at least you can start it up again inverters solar panels uh battery charging systems complete kits auxiliary batteries lithium batteries Etc and uh battery boxes and even inverters and generators so they got a whole bunch of stuff and you can just go through their website and find it you know whatever you want now they do run a whole bunch of specials look at this March Madness um up to 50% off just in case you you weren't aware being a viewer and a subscriber of my channel it means that I can give you a discount code a coupon code and that gives you an extra 5% discount on top of the specials in most cases on top of the specials that itch world run use it and you'll probably find that you'll get an extra 5% discount on top of already the great deals that have been offered so if we go into Power stations because that's what I'm particularly interested in and you'll see a whole bunch of new P well actually you see a whole bunch of power stations from very small uh 300 um wat power stations 25 amp hour going right up to the new baby this 3,6 600 W Power Station 300 amp hour incredible so I've got the 200 W version the PS 2000 already and I've also got this one here the ITC World 1300 P Power Station lithium battery new products there there's four new products have just been released the PS 300 portable lithium power station so if you click on that you get all sorts of details the ps800 800 W 40 amp hour and also the PS 1300 Power Station uh which is 100 amp hour 1300 wats so that will be probably a replacement actually this one is sold out you can't get this one anymore so that is a replacement to the 1300 P so we got the ps2000 now and and also the PS 3600 all right well let's have a look at the 3600 there you go look at this um recommended retail price is 7,500 right now with March Madness discount um you get a saving of $2,500 amazing so if I was to order this then I would just add it to my cart and then I'd go to checkout ah discount code look at this so if I put in adventure 8 there Venture R and apply it and let's see what happens oh at this the adventure R discount it takes uh another 5% off so that's another saving of $250 right okay well I will be ordering this soon just need to get my my um my bucks in order but that anyway that just shows you how simple the process is I just go back to uh yeah the itch world but let's have a look at the um you know applications for this as well as uh some of the features of this product as well the main ones that uh that have been promoted here is that it's you know it's ideal for running a large appliances and Caravan air conditioning for example it's got inbuilt wheels and trolley now the reason for that is that it is much heavier unit compared to the ps2000 we'll have a look at that and it can be charged fully within 3 hours so that's uh that's a lot of power all right so what other things can we work out from the details so there's details okay we're in okay there's the details and you can read through that but in summary uh 3,600 wats Peak 7,200 now the reason for the peak is that a lot of appliances that might run continuously at 3,600 wats when you actually turn it on there is a spike so it could handle a spike up to 7,200 wats if it's goes beyond the 3,600 watts of any length of time then all the safety circuits cut in and it'll switch the unit off uh 300 amp hours fantastic um so that gives you a lot of capacity designed for home backup so it is an uninterruptable power supply so you can have a PS 3600 between the PowerPoint at your home and then uh with all the outlets going to your computer systems your freezers your fridges whatever such that if there's a Main's power failure then the lithium batteries cut in and continue to run everything almost instantly within 10 milliseconds is the override switch amazing um yeah so my experience with the itch World batteries is that you know they Char you charge them up I don't touch them and uh like for example the PS 1,300 in my Troy I haven't used that it's been fully charged I haven't used it for almost 6 months and I think it's lost only 2% power in the 6 months of sitting their idle which is what you want you want the power supply to be available when you need it uh if you're not using it for any length of time um some other brands uh you charge them up and you come back to it you know 3 months later and you've lost half its capacity so I've been very happy with itch world uh units uh okay what other details can I give you let's we'll have a look at the specifications the charging periods is really important so if you are charging if you run the power unit down to almost zero power and you need to charge 3600 wats up again uh actually it's quick charging within 3 hours you can actually get it back to full charge using AC outlet at 240 volts you have you can also charge the so with solar panels so if you got can handle up to 1,000 wats input from the solar panels they might be flexible solar panels and um you can actually do parallel charging so if you're running power from the AC power and also from the solar panels then you can cut the total charge time from Flat from 3 hours down to 2 hours if you're running the solar only then it will take about 4 hours to run off at 1,000 watts per hour um and then if you're running off the uh the PD device I'm not sure what it stands for a power device or something of the USBC then you've got a maximum charge rate at 100 wats per hour so that's a if you need to do that you can do that as an input chart uh the chemistry is uh life P4 lithium iron which is great apparently do your research it's better than just lithium iron the life life po4 apparently is much better better longevity better recharging capacity so that's good uh Peak Performance 300 wats amp hours we mentioned that the life cycle uh 3,500 Cycles at 80% now obviously sometimes you'd be charging to 100% um I'm not really concerned because uh chances are that these uh units will last me you know five six 7 8 years and I'm sure the technology will change over the years but uh I found the my units so far have been fantastic so I've no quals about getting the 3600 it's got one uh okay output ports one USBC 2 usba Quick Charge ports uh two 5.5 mm DC Direct so 60 W uh Max output uh a 12vt output at 10 amps so that's uh 120 watts 3 AC plugs outputs which is great and two times parallel ports uh it is linkable not sure how it's link I don't see any details there right now uh the weight is 42 kg so yes one person strong person could POS could pick it up but two people would make it much easier and that's the reason for the wheels and the handle so you can use it as a trolling and my son is is a carpenter and he works offsite in locations where you don't necessarily have power so you can have it generator or you can have one of these units no doubt he'll be knocking on my door when I get this yeah so I'm excited about this um let's have a look at the other quickly the other new power stations and uh so we've got the ps300 um so it's a perfect alternative to the Dual battery system that's what I've already mentioned coffee runs your coffee machine uh your hair straightener hair dryer Etc so this is basically lithium power station that acts as a possible uh you know dual battery system for your car your camper power goes in on one side power comes out on the other side so that's the 1300 PS 1300 and uh what other ones other new one uh the uh 800 oh yes 800 and the 300 so you can see once you start going into the smaller capacities the weight of the unit becomes quite light 6 and A2 kg so you can quite easily move that around it's got a light which is really nice that's really useful actually having a light and the new um ps300 does that have a light it doesn't have light okay it's a much smaller unit uh runs your 12volt car fridge the actual the jump starter that that I Ed to start up the car when I you know had a completely Cactus battery um that can that can actually run your car fridge as well so which is good to know so you got that extra little power yes so there you go itch World um I wanted to just update you quickly before I order my unit and because of this mad Madness mad mad March Madness sale that is operating right now and with these new power stations uh I thought quickly just remind you that you get 5 extra 5% off if you use the adventure8 discount code for anything on the itch
