Battery & Capacity

The FF FlashFish G300 portable power station comes equipped with a high-capacity 60000mAh lithium-ion battery. This provides plenty of juice to power your devices and appliances when you're on the go.

The large battery capacity enables the FF FlashFish G300 to deliver an impressive 300 watt-hours of energy. On a single full charge, it can provide power for CPAP and BiPAP machines for up to 25 hours, tablets and phones for over 20 full charges, or run small appliances like mini coolers and fans for several hours.

With its efficient lithium-ion battery, the G300 is designed for over 500 charge cycles. This translates to years of reliable off-grid power that you can count on when you need it most. The battery also features 9 layers of smart protection to safeguard against short circuits, over current, overloads and more.

Overall, the high capacity lithium-ion battery in the FF FlashFish G300 provides robust and reliable off-grid power for a wide range of uses during outdoor adventures, power outages or as an emergency power backup.

Outputs

• TheFlashFish Portable Power Station has multiple outlets for powering your devices:

• There are 3 AC outlets with a max output of 300W. The AC outlets are useful for powering small appliances, laptops, mini-fridges, lamps, and other standard household electronics.

• It also has 2 USB-A ports and 1 USB-C port. The USB-A ports provide 2.4A max per port, while the USB-C provides 60W max. These USB ports allow you to charge phones, tablets, cameras, and other USB-powered gadgets.

• In addition, there is a 12V DC outlet designed for powering car appliances. The 12V outlet provides a max of 10A or 120W. This allows you to run or charge items like car refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, air pumps, and other accessories designed for standard 12V car outlets.

• With its 300W AC output and multiple USB ports, the FlashFish can power most small electronic devices, making it versatile for outdoor adventures, work sites, or emergency backup power. Just be aware of the 300W limit when connecting devices to avoid overload.

Features

The G300 power station has several useful features for portable power. It has a small LCD display that shows the remaining battery percentage, output wattage, and operating status. There are also 4 LED light indicators on the front panel - 25% battery, 50% battery, 75% battery, and 100% battery. These provide an easy way to see the remaining charge level at a glance.

For portability, the G300 has a sturdy extendable handle and a rolling wheel design. This allows you to easily transport the 23.5 lb power station by rolling it like wheeled luggage. The handle can extend out or tuck away neatly when not needed. There are also molded side handles for lifting the unit if needed.

Charging

The G300 can be charged via the included wall charger or through solar panels. Charging with the 110V wall charger takes around 8 hours to reach a full charge from empty. This is quite slow compared to similar capacity power stations which can charge in 3-5 hours.

Charging via solar panel is even slower. To reach a full charge from solar it can take 20+ hours in ideal sunny conditions. The solar input is only 60W max, so the charging speed is limited compared to solar panels that can provide 100W+ input.

If you need to quickly recharge the G300, the wall outlet is the only feasible option. The solar charging is more of an emergency backup option for extended off-grid use rather than a practical daily charging method. Just be prepared that it takes nearly a full day to recharge from solar alone.

Performance

The FlashFish G300 is capable of powering a variety of appliances and electronics. According to the manufacturer, it can power a 45W refrigerator for up to 5 hours, a cell phone for 70+ charges, and a 32 in TV for up to 6 hours. However, in real-world usage, the performance will vary based on the actual power draw of the appliances you're using.

I tested the G300 with a few common appliances. It was able to power my DSLR camera and laptop simultaneously for about 6 hours before needing a recharge. For smaller items like phones, tablets, and fans, it could last over 24 hours no problem. The most power hungry appliance I tested was a portable electric heater, which drained the unit in just under 2 hours.

So the G300 certainly lives up to its promise in powering small appliances and electronics during power outages or camping trips. Just don't expect to run anything too large or energy intensive for extended periods of time. It's best for keeping essentials like lights, phones, and small appliances charged up in a pinch.

Pros

The G300 portable power station has several nice advantages that make it a compelling option.

• Portable and compact design. Weighing only 7.7 pounds, the G300 has a very portable and compact form factor. It's easy to take with you in the car or even carry by hand. The compact size means it doesn't take up much space.

• Good output capacity. With 300 watts of continuous power and a 60000 mAh battery capacity, the G300 provides enough juice to power and charge most small appliances and electronics on the go. It can even run small power tools. The variety of output ports increases what you can power.

• Excellent value. For the price, the G300 delivers impressive performance and features in a portable package. You get capabilities comparable to larger and pricier power stations. The G300 provides great bang for your buck if you need portable power.

Cons

The Flashfish Portable Power Station has a few drawbacks worth considering.

• It does not have WiFi connectivity or an app to monitor the device remotely. Some competing models allow you to check the battery level and turn ports on/off via a smartphone app. With the Flashfish, you need to check everything manually on the device.

• At 11.4 pounds, it is heavier than some similar 300W power stations. If you plan to take it camping or move it around a lot, the weight could become an issue. There are more portable options available that weigh closer to 7 or 8 pounds.

• The display screen is relatively small and basic. It shows the battery level and which ports are in use, but does not provide detailed usage statistics.

• While the recharge time is decent at around 4 hours with a 60W PD charger, it is slower than some models that can recharge in 2-3 hours. If you need to top it up quickly before a power outage, this longer recharge time could be a limitation.

• There is no wireless charging built in. Some competing models have this for charging phones and other devices wirelessly.

Overall, the drawbacks are relatively minor. But it's worth keeping in mind if an ultra-portable and smart power station is your priority. The Flashfish aims more for decent capacity at an affordable price point.

Conclusion

The FlashFish G300 is an impressive portable power station that delivers solid performance and useful features in a compact package. Its 300 watt power output is enough to charge smartphones, tablets, small appliances, and run things like CPAP machines and mini fridges for several hours.

The large 60000mAh capacity provides plenty of juice to keep devices powered up on the go, with the ability to be recharged from a wall outlet in 5-6 hours. Quick charging support through the USB-C and DC ports is a nice touch.
