The Oukitel P2001 Plus is a portable power station with a 2048 Wh LiFePO4 battery and a 2400 W output. It has four AC outlets, USB ports and a solar input, making it an option for powering electronics and appliances off-grid or providing backup power.
The Oukitel P2001 Plus is a portable power station with a 2048 Wh LiFePO4 battery and a 2400 W output. It has four AC outlets, USB ports and a solar input, making it an option for powering electronics and appliances off-grid or providing backup power.
Capacity and output
The 2048 Wh capacity describes the amount of energy stored in the battery. In theory, it would power a 1000 W appliance for approximately two hours. Actual runtime will be shorter because of energy conversion losses and will depend on the device’s power draw.
The maximum 2400 W output allows the station to power higher-draw appliances or several devices at once. Their combined draw must stay within the station’s output limit.
The LiFePO4 cells are rated for more than 3,500 charging cycles while retaining 80% of their original capacity. This does not guarantee the same lifespan under every pattern of use.
Outlets and ports
The station offers the following outputs:
- Four AC outlets with a combined 2400 W output for powering electrical devices.
- Four USB-C ports with Power Delivery, rated at 100 W, 45 W, 20 W and 20 W, for charging compatible electronics.
- Two USB-A ports rated at up to 18 W for charging devices and accessories.
- A 12 V car lighter socket rated at 10 A for compatible automotive accessories.
Before connecting multiple appliances, check their combined power draw. When using the AC outlets, also check that your plugs are compatible with the particular version of the station.
Mains and solar charging
The P2001 Plus supports charging from the mains and from a solar panel. Its solar input accepts up to 500 W and uses an MPPT controller to help make use of the power available from the panel. Maximum combined charging power from mains and solar is 2300 W.
A charging time of approximately 60 minutes is stated for mains-only charging. Times of 50 minutes for combined charging and 165 minutes for solar-only charging are also stated, but the starting state of charge and measurement conditions for those two figures are unclear.
The 50- and 165-minute figures should not be taken as charging times for a fully depleted 2048 Wh battery without further explanation. At the 2300 W limit, supplying 2048 Wh would take more than 50 minutes even without losses. At the 500 W solar limit, it would take more than four hours. Actual solar charging also depends on the available sunlight and the output of the connected panel.
Protection and portability
The station has an IP54 rating, meaning it is protected against limited dust ingress and splashing water. It is not completely dust-tight or protected against immersion in water.
Without solar accessories, it weighs approximately 22 kg. Its sturdy construction and non-slip handle help when moving it, but the weight is worth considering if it needs to be carried for longer distances.
Who is it suitable for?
The P2001 Plus can be used on trips, for work off-grid or to power selected devices during an outage. Its AC outlets, USB ports and 12 V output accommodate different types of equipment, but its capacity and total output determine how long and how many devices can run at once. For backup use, check the power draw and requirements of the appliances you plan to connect.
