![]() ![]() A 12 V port can fully charge the power station’s battery after a 12-hour drive, while a 24 V port can have it charged up in 6 hours. The charging rate depends on the output rate of the available port on the vehicle. The power station can also be charged using a car’s cigarette lighter port. Charging on a day with intermittent clouds took about 6.5 hours, but of course, that is highly variable based on current weather conditions. Charging with the solar panels supposedly take 4 hours however, this is greatly affected by the weather. The PowerRoam 1200 is also compatible with up to two 200 W solar panels with a combined capacity of 400 watts. Charging with AC can be as quick as 1.5 hours through the 1,200-watt input or roughly about 70% capacity in 1 hour. This power station comes in two versions, a 110 V version for areas such as America and Japan, and a 220 V version for other regions. It is a considerably convenient fact that AC charging on this device does not require the use of other adapters that would otherwise be an extra bulk to carry around. The fastest of the three would, of course, be AC charging through the supplied power cable. The Ugreen PowerRoam 1200 has three options when it comes to charging. On the other side is a similar 6.5 x 3.5 inch vent on top of the 6 AC outlets and the AC output button. On the left side is a 6.5 x 3.5 inch vent for the built-in fan with a flip out door that reveal the charging input ports (AC and solar) and safety modules on top. To the right of the screen is a cigarette lighter-type port along with two other DC ports followed by a dedicated button to activate the DC output. On the left of the screen is a built-in emergency lamp, a power button for the lamp, and a function button for pairing the PowerRoam 1200 to a smartphone using the Ugreen mobile app.īelow the screen are two USB-C and two USB-A ports along with the overall on/off button for the device. On the front panel is a 4.8 x 1.25 inch display that shows the battery percentage, input and output rates, as well as the time (in hours) to fully charge or fully drain the battery. The top panel consists only of a large handle that spans the entire length of the power station and serves as the only way to carry the relatively heavy power supply. The Ugreen PowerRoam 1200įollowing Ugreen’s previous release of the PowerRoam 600, this bigger power station comes as an 11.5 kg (25.4 lbs) device made of a rigid steel structure encased in a hard plastic shell with rubber padding. Let’s take a look at what Ugreen’s PowerRoam 1200 has to offer. Whether it be to bring your studio lighting setup outdoors or to provide power to recharge our camera, smartphone, and laptop batteries for long-haul projects, having something you can carry around for that will always be a great option. Of course portable power stations are not just useful exclusively to creatives but we all very well know the implications of what having portable power sources can help us achieve. Thankfully, portable power stations are now available to bridge that gap. ![]() For photographers and filmmakers, this has even more weight. ![]() Whether it’s because we want to do them in places that are off the grid or because of some unexpected power interruptions, the lack of electricity can definitely interrupt with our activities. Whether as photographers or even just as regular users of electronics, the accessibility of a power source can sometimes be a limitation for some of the things that we want to do. ![]()
