Who should buy the 1000L

Buy it if you want one carry-everywhere battery for camp lights, a fridge, laptops and small appliances, or short-term home backup. It is lighter than typical 1kWh stations and fast to recharge.

Output and ports

Two AC outlets deliver up to 1,200W, with Power-Boost to 1,800W for brief high-wattage loads. USB-C ports at 100W and 30W, two USB-A, a 126W car port and a DC5521 round out eight outputs.

Charging options

Recharge from a wall outlet to 80% in about 50 minutes, from 600W of solar, or from 12V/24V car charging. Our guide to charging from your car explains the basics.

Battery life and backup

Dabbsson lists 4,000 cycles to over 80% capacity and a 15ms UPS switch for continuity. Read our LiFePO4 versus lithium-ion guide to compare chemistries.

Why we like it.

Light for its capacity

Dabbsson lists 1,008Wh at 24 lb, which it says is 15% lighter and 36% more compact than typical 1kWh stations.

Strong output and solar input

1,200W output with 1,800W Power-Boost handles many appliances, and 600W of solar input shortens recharging.

Fast AC recharge

Dabbsson says a wall outlet restores 80% in about 50 minutes.

Eight ports and an app

Two AC outlets, USB-C at 100W and 30W, USB-A, a car port and DC output, with the Dabbsson app for monitoring.

A few things to consider.

1,200W is a ceiling

Power-Boost reaches 1,800W for high-wattage start-up loads, but a 2,000W heater or kettle is beyond it.

Solar panels are separate

The reviewed variant is the station only; panel bundles are separate listings.

One kilowatt-hour is not a week of power
