Dabbsson Portable Power Station DBS2300, 2330Wh EV Semi-solid State LiFePO4 Home Battery Backup, Max 8330Wh, 5×2200W AC Outlets, Solar Generator for Camping, Home Backup, Emergency, RV

If you are shopping for battery backup devices like this DBS1300 then you surely are overwhelmed like I was with the many many offerings that are very similar in performance and price. This review will describe why I settled on Dabbsson and the DBS1300. The product is capable of exactly what it's advertised as able to do. If, you are looking for a review on "is this quality", the answer is: Absolutely. It is well made, feels premium, and works wonderfully. When shopping for one of these batteries / solar generators these were my list of features that I wanted in order of importance. 1. Battery Type - LFP (LiFePO4) batteries are really the only good option here as regular Li-Ion batteries should not be left fully charged. Keeping the battery at 80% to save it's operating life is a terrible option for this application. Further LFP also can cycle 3-5X as many times as LMC type batteries, making the device life much longer. Specifically Dabbsson uses cells they claim have 4500+ cycles before degrading to 80% of it's original capacity. At 4500 cycles, the number may as well be a million as I'll never get close to cycling it 5 times a day for ~3 years. 2. Battery Capacity - I added up all of my expected power draws vs how long I needed to run the device. This is the main cost factor and I ended up deciding that for my desired price point and how long our average power outage is made me seek out batteries with a minimum of 1.0kWH. 3. Power output capability. Again, this is directly related to what devices you want to run and what your use case is. For me I didn't plan to run power tools, or very high peak power devices. I need to recharge cell phones, laptops, lights, and run a small essentials only refrigerator or portable A/C unit. I decided that 1kW continuous was my minimum requirement. 4. Power Input capability. This is driven by your use case. If primarily camping then being able to charge quickly is important. It is highly desirable to be able to quickly charge when the sun is at peak, or when clouds clear up, or quickly charge when you have access to a 120V grid power. If using the battery as a battery backup for the home, then maybe this doesn't matter as much. My requirements led to a desire to be able to fully recharge the battery from the wall socket in around 2 hours, or from already purchased 330W, 60V solar panels. 5. Power ports. My minimum requirement was USB-PD with at least 65W output to charge my Macbook. Addtionally, I wanted a minimum of 4 120V outlets to power other AC devices. The Dabbsson DBS1300's has high quality LFP batteries, it is 1300kWh exceeding my minimum, has a power output of 1200W, can quickly charge on 60V solar cells, or on 120VAC in around an hour, has all the ports I need including a USB-PD with 100w output making it great for laptops. When compared to other devices in the similar price range and battery size (EcoFlow, Bluetti, Jackery, etc). The Dabbsson is a bit less expensive with the tradeoff of offering a lower AC power output than most of the other competitors. For this class, 1200W continuous is quite low when others offer up to 2000W. However, given the larger than average 1300kWh, slightly lower price, excellent power port diversity, and very long life LFP battery cells made me believe that the DBS1300 was the right device for me. TL:DR Overall, I'm shocked at how great this device is for the price (when it's on sale). For my use case of primarily emergency battery backup, and secondary use case of camping. The DBS1300 offers the best combination of features and price with the sacrifice of slightly lower power output capability. I look forward to building out this unit with an additional DBS1300, and 4 DBS1700B's extra batteries to fully utilize this really well made device.

This is a well-constructed and expandable power station. The display is one of the best I have seen, and I have a number of units to compare to. It provides a large amount of power (up to 2200 continuous watts) and does so with just a slight fan noise. My initial test was to hook up my cpap to the 12v plug and to run a Lasko pedestal fan on AC. The 12v cpap uses about 30W and the fan draws 90W. I conducted the test 3 times. Each time the AC would shut off with the overload symbol after about 5 minutes. DC power remained unaffected. The next day I decided to see if the AC inverter doesn’t work. More testing. I ran a vaccum for about 15 minutes straight to vaccum the living room under load. This varied between 800 and 1000W. I did this several times rotating through all 5 plugs. No errors. I also ran a rice cooker for a cooking cycle, using about 500 continuous watts for approximately 30 minutes. I then used a hairdryer on all settings, drawing up to 1,900 watts. I repeated on all outlets. Finally, I attached the fan again, but without also running 12v. It ran the 90W fan flawlessly for almost an hour. Charging without the app runs either at a very fast pace well over1,000w, or by sliding the lever down on the side it will charge at about 490W. Both worked fine. For less stress on the system I will reserve fast charge for whwn I really need it. I plan to update this when I have charged via solar and conducted a few more stress tests to determine if I have a reliable unit or not. So far it seems fine after the initial hiccups. The biggest downside is this thing is heavy! That’s why I titled this the way I did. This is a power outage or limited home backup power station. You aren’t taking this thing anywhere casually. It will be even more cumbersome with the additional batteries. Looking forward to adding one of those to this as well. Overall I recommend this! UPDATE 8/26/2023 I already tried this update a week ago and nothing posted here goes again. The first week of August I had an electrical problem where a short had knocked out power to a spare bedroom. I use the bedroom for a 5000 BTU window air conditioner to help out the central air. Here in South Louisiana we have been through over 45 days straight of brutal heat of 95 or more, with 13 days over 100. Very unusual for us, since our normal summer high is about 92. While I awaited the electrician for several days I still needed that AC. I used this Dabbson and another brand, switching them each out while the other charged. I got nearly 4 hours out of a charge on the Dabbson while leaving 20%. I switched them out like this for 4 days. Dabbson made an outstanding unit that bad no problems with the AC startup, did not overheat (indeed half the time no fan was running, and half the time just one). It just did what I asked of it. Very pleased.

I can't express how thrilled I am with my recent purchase of the Dabbsson Portable Power Station! This little powerhouse has completely transformed my experience living completely off-Grid, and I couldn't be happier. First of all, the battery life is simply incredible. I was always concern of running out of juice at the worst possible times, but since I bought Dabbsson Power station those worries are a thing of the past. It holds an impressive charge, keeping my appliances alive and kicking throughout the day and then some! No more frantic trying to conserve energy during cloudy winter days. The build quality of the Dabbsson Battery is also top-notch. It feels solid and durable in my hand, and I'm confident it will withstand the test of time. The sleek and compact design makes it easy to carry in my bag or pocket without adding extra bulk, and the LED indicator lights let me know how much charge is left, so I'm never caught off guard. Another feature I love about the Dabbsson Battery is its fast-charging capability. It quickly replenishes the battery on my devices, saving me valuable time. Plus, I've noticed that it doesn't heat up excessively during charging. The only thing missing is the 30 amp RV out. I wish they would install this. Overall, the Dabbsson Battery has exceeded my expectations in every way. It's reliable, efficient, and has eliminated the frustration of constantly running out of energy especially over the winter months. I can't recommend it enough to anyone in need of a reliable portable power source. Thank you, Dabbsson, for making my life so much easier and more convenient with this fantastic product!

works well.

It took only a week to be delivered! Amazing and the product in good quality. On the other hand I ordered dometic freezer from RV automative. It took a month! So when I cancelled it, they ignored and sent it a month later. Also they want restocking fee if you cancel your order. I like Amazon but it’s changing toward bad like ebay by having these third party sellers. Second times this month in row.

Ich bin ja eigentlich nicht so der große Rezensionen Schreiber, aber hier muss das echt mal sein. Zu aller erst das negative. Negativ aufgefallen ist uns leider von Anfang an die gelegentlich etwas lauten Lüfter. Aber ehrlich gesagt das stört nur wenn man da etwas empfindlich dagegen ist. Uns jedenfalls macht das nichts mehr aus, den der Nutzen des Gerätes gleich das aus, das ist aber auch der einzige Punkt der stört, da sollte bei einem Nachfolge Gerät der Hersteller mal nachbessern. Wir hatten die Powerstation auch schon im Urlaub dabei im Wohnmobil, selbst da war es erträglich, aber man wurde halt Nachts gelegentlich wach wenn der Lüfter auf einmal an ging. Einfache Lösung, Gerät nachts aus machen. Geladen haben wir die DBS2300 dann über Solar vom Fahrzeugdach und wehrend der Fahrt über den Zigarettenanzünder, das dauert zwar, aber unterwegs macht das ja nichts. So waren wir unabhängig vom Landstrom den wir eigentlich nicht brauchen. Der Vorteil war man konnte auf einen normalen Mixer und einen besseren Fön, den Frau gern hat, umstellen. Das Laden unserer Handys, Kameras, Tablets, Laptops, der Drohne und des E-Scooters haben wir darüber auch erledigt, so Sparten wir uns den Strom von Fahrzeug für Kühlschrank und Heizung auf. Das verlängerte unsere autarke Zeit um ganze 4 Tage. Nicht schlecht, wir waren selbst überrascht. Leistungsmäßig war das Gerät nicht an die Grenze gekommen, wie auch bei 2200 Watt und ca 2300Wh Kapazität. Zu Hause nutzen wir die Dabbsson DBS2300 als Speicher für den Solarstrom vom Balkonkraftwerk, so läuft unser Fernseher, der Router, der Drucker und einige Lampen dann am Abend über die Powerstation. Nachts so der Plan soll wenn der Microwechselrichter geliefert wurde eingespeist werden um die Grundlast zu kompensieren. So wird wenn wir zu Hause sind Strom produziert und gespart und wenn wir unterwegs sind der Luxus etwas besser. Die Bedienung ist denkbar einfach, wer mit dem Handy klar kommt kann auch die Powerstation bedienen, den diese lässt sich bequem vom Sofa oder überall auf der Welt per Bluetooth oder WiFi steuern. Die App ist sehr innovativ gestaltet und kann dem persönlichen Geschmack sogar etwas angepasst werden. Sämtliche Ausgänge können angesteuert werden, sogar die Led Beleuchtung lässt sich ein und ausschalten. Also wir können sagen der Kauf hat sich definitiv gelohnt. Wenn der Microwechselrichter angeschlossen ist gibt's dazu bestimmt auch noch etwas zu sagen und die Rezension angepasst oder um eine Video Rezension erweitert. Wir können die DBS2300 wärmstens empfehlen, den diese Kapazität und Leistung zu dem Preis kostet sonst jede Menge mehr. Hier stimmt Preis und Leistung zu 100% und das sagen wir weil es so ist, den wir werden nicht bezahlt um das hier zu schreiben.

Ho acquistato questa Power Station (PS) ad inizio gennaio del 2024 e prima di recensirla ho voluto effettuare diverse prove di funzionamento in modo da valutarne le effettive potenzialità. Desidero innanzitutto precisare che il motivo dell'acquisto era quello di dotarmi di un UPS centralizzato di adeguata potenza per alimentare tutti i dispositivi informatici e domotici che ho installato in casa (Modem, router, Ip camera, Workstation, PC, NAS, NUC, Raspberry, ecc..), nonché un piccolo congelatore. In effetti il produttore non garantisce il DBS2300 come UPS (quindi con tempi di commutazione in caso di mancanza di alimentazione AC pari a 0ms.), bensì come EPS, con tempi di commutazione di 15ms. Ciononostante, le mie apparecchiature non hanno mai subito interruzione di alimentazione durante la commutazione della PS, per cui questo aspetto per me molto importante è stato soddisfatto. Altro aspetto molto importante che è stato soddisfatto è la potenza massima di 2KW che, anche se raramente, ho raggiunto senza alcun problema. Così come la durata della batteria assolutamente coerente con la capacità di 2.3KW/h dichiarata dal produttore. Ormai i tempi di autonomia sono per me dell'ordine delle ore, anche con carichi "importanti", e non più di minuti come era prima con normali UPS con batterie al piombo! Inizialmente ho riscontrato qualche piccolo problema di natura software come, ad esempio, il display della PS che non si spegneva mai, nonostante avessi impostato un tempo di spegnimento di 1 min. e la disconnessione della PS dall'App sul mio smartphone Android, che quindi non mi consentiva più di monitorare e gestire la DBS2300 da remoto (anche fuori casa) con l'App. Entrambi i problemi sono stati tempestivamente risolti dal Supporto Tecnico di Dabbsson con cui mi sono interfacciato costantemente in questi mesi e che ha provveduto a rilasciare in tempi molto brevi due aggiornamenti firmware, nonchè altrettanti aggiornamenti dell'App. Penso che avere a disposizione un Help Desk competente e tempestivo non solo nelle risposte, ma anche nella risoluzione di eventuali problemi riscontrati, sia il notevole valore aggiunto di questo prodotto. Devo però segnalare un paio di piccoli problemi che ho riscontrato. Il primo riguarda il fatto che se la batteria risulta carica al 100% (cosa abbastanza normale in caso di utilizzo della Power Station come EPS), la carica da pannelli fotovoltaici quando questi iniziano a produrre energia, non avviene automaticamente. Per utilizzare in uscita anche la potenza che viene dai pannelli PV, oltre che dalla batteria della PS, è necessario staccare per qualche secondo l'alimentazione AC della PS in modo da "forzare" l'abilitazione dell'ingresso PV. Successivamente, ricollegando l'alimentazione AC, l'ingresso PV rimane abilitato contemporaneamente a quello AC. Inoltre, sempre a proposito di ingresso PV, se la batteria risulta carica al 100%, la potenza in ingresso da PV viene limitata a 29W. Non chiedetemi perché, l'Help Desk, contattato a tale proposito, mi ha detto che entrambi questi comportamenti sono normali. Io ho risolto questa situazione semplicemente inserendo uno Shelly Plus 1 PM a monte dell'alimentazione della DBS2300 e programmando, tramite l'App Shelly, dei cicli di carica alternati a cicli di scarica della PS in modo da mantenere la carica della batteria fra il 30% e l'80%, sia per preservarne la durata che per garantirmi l'abilitazione dell'ingresso PV, senza alcun limite di potenza, quando i miei pannelli PV iniziano a produrre energia. Un ultimo elemento che ritengo utile evidenziare è il consumo della PS durante il suo normale funzionamento come EPS. Il display segnala circa 100W di potenza in ingresso in più rispetto al carico in uscita, e ciò indipendentemente dalla potenza impostata come carica della batteria interna, che può essere impostata tramite APP, da un minimo di 50W a un massimo di 1800W (io l'ho impostata a 300W). Interpellando lo Help Desk se questo consumo fosse normale, mi è stato detto che il valore indicato sul display è affetto da un errore dovuto all'algoritmo di calcolo dei consumi in modalità EPS che è in via di risoluzione. In effetti, misurando con un dispositivo esterno il consumo effettivo, questo è risultato di circa 70W. Questo, in estrema sintesi, mi sembra l'unico dato negativo, rispetto ad un prodotto in generale ben fatto ed affidabile, e supportato da un eccellente servizio di assistenza tecnica. Detto ciò, consiglio sicuramente l'acquisto di questo prodotto sia come soluzione di backup centralizzato che come fonte trasportabile di energia.

Spedizione puntuale, confezione impeccabile, accoppiamento wireless di una semplicità unica e app funzionale e essenziale. Carica al 56 % ricarica a 600 watt completata in un oretta, prima prova con un phon da 2200 tutto ok senza problemi. Power station acquistata per utilizzo in camper optando per la DBS1300 per motivi di spazio e peso. Macchina eccellente dopo i primi utilizzi in settimana la provo nel camper, sono curioso se reggerà il climatizzatore ( farò sapere in un prossimo aggiornamento), nel caso positivo acquisterò l’unità di espansione. Dimenticavo l’applicazione e’ indispensabile per attivare le funzioni quando la power station è in una posizione scomoda. Il prezzo è stato fondamentale per la scelta l’alternativa era di modificare l’impianto elettrico del camper con un esborso economico non indifferente! Consigliata

Bought the Dabbsson to replace an Allpowers Monster X which died recently. This unit is built like a tank but at 24kg, it's 10kg heavier than my previous and you really feel the extra weight. On the positive side, at 2330Wh it has the greatest capacity I've found, can be controlled by app via wifi/bluetooth and it is very quiet when the inverter is on. I like the fact that you can choose the rate at which the batteries are charged - slow charging can help extend battery lifetime but at over 4500 cycles, this should not be a concern. I used the unit to cook a nice piece steak outside in an air fryer for 30 mins (1500 watts on and off) and there was 75% power remaining. Two minor negatives so far : USB PD is out only and I'm not sure how durable the flaps will prove to be. Glad I waited for this unit and didn't buy an Aferiy/VDL/Jackery unit.
