Received my second & updated OUPES Mega-5 Solar Generator/ Power Bank

[@user-hh6ex9md4w]

Wow, the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series sounds like an amazing addition to outdoor gear! The massive capacity, fast recharging, and waterproof technology make it perfect for camping or as a home backup power source. Plus, the smart app control is a great feature for monitoring energy usage. Thanks for sharing this recommendation!

[@OUPESOfficial]

Thanks so much for your review! Very detailed and thorough! Appreciate it🤗🤗

[@KYHill-billy]

Would love to do more reviews on any of your oupes generators or batteries! thank you..

[@99Fabrication]

I've made my decision. I'm not sure which video I responded to you on but I believe it was on the Anker. I asked something about it and you suggested look into the Bluetti. I went with the Pecron 2000LFP. I wanted raw power without all the frills in the 2000 watt range. It's 1920 wh. Life Po 4 and now I'm saving up for the expandable battery. The main unit retails at $1400. It is on sale for $500 off. I used a KZbinrs product code and got another $45 off. So that's 1920 wh with a 2000 watt inverter for .44c per watt. Ordered it yesterday for $854.00 only thing it could have that I really didn't care much about was UPS and the wifi apps. I think I'll be happy especially when I get the expandable battery which is 3000wh. That will be over 5000 wh for about $2200. Maybe I'll do a video about it.

[@KYHill-billy]

The pecron looks to be a great unit & far as I'm concerned you made a great choice! I was looking at it myself but the voltage I believe was lower than what my panels required. I'm sure you will be happy with it. Please let me know what you think of it after you run it a few times. Thanks for the info.

[@williamlabarre4755]

Just a standard 20A IEC cord. You are probably most familiar with the 15A ("vertical") style. Gotta have it for those high charge wattages!

[@unclegunnysack4895]

Love your set up. Pricing out bluettis and OUPES AND SOLAR PANELS. Great videos. Thank you.

[@stephensanchez5761]

Make a vid of the OUPES connected to solar and all ur appliances running.

[@KYHill-billy]

Ill sure do it buddy.

[@brucebechtel9832]

Honest vids

[@deborahisrael4989]

Good video, KY Hill billy! 😊

[@Noelshepherd]

My 1st OUPES MEGA 5 was also a dud. It would not connect to the expansion battery. This one is working fine. The first one was an older model. I use it for my freezer, beverage cooler and 2 other smaller accessories. It is connected to solar panels 24/7.

[@KYHill-billy]

Nice!

[@californiatarheel6658]

Do your panels charge fully? What happens when you get to 100%?

[@johntorrence2195]

You did right getting another buddy congrats

[@AskIveSolar]

I turned on slow charge on my mega 2 and I noticed that it's ups mode is limited to 800 watts. I need to test further to be sure

[@KYHill-billy]

I'll have to check that out myself. let me know & I'll do the same in return.

[@herblackwings33]

Seeing you walk into that bedroom with all of those power stations there was wild! The Oupes is great minus not having a 100w type c input,its just 60 watts but still a great buy. East KY isn't far from me in Huntington,WV

[@KYHill-billy]

Nice, yeh we are close. i go to the mall a lot.

[@katrinagarland5219]

I am a complete newbie at this so pardon my questions if they seem dumb... 1. How are you transferring the power from the solar panels to the unit? 2. How are you running all those machines at the same time when they are in different rooms - extension cords? Thanks!

[@KYHill-billy]

I'll answer the best I can! #1-I use a MC4 cable, they make different types with mc4 on both ends or mc4 on one end & a Anderson cable on another end. #2- I don't use all at same time but only use one at a time. And I run electrical line from one room to the other from under house. all very easy to do. I made a video on how to do this. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C725FG5M/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AK08CFA7AIN0M&psc=1 link to mc4 cable on amazon.

[@Shelleys4Seasons]

New subscriber, also KY prepper 😁 been wanting one of these but haven't yet.

[@KYHill-billy]

I can honestly say, if you get a solar generator make it the oupes mega 5! this is a huge watt package with 7000w surge peak, don't look anywhere else. I'm just being honest! I run mine all night long & still have around 50%-45% left when I get up in morning. And could still let it run but I start charging that morning so I can run it again for upcoming night.

[@Shelleys4Seasons]

@@KYHill-billy we have a Rockford solar one now but been looking at one of these for bigger storage power but also looking to be completely off grid

[@stbernard1966]

I have a quick question if you don't mind. I want to run a 5000 BTU window unit that pushes right around 500 watts in your opinion which portable power station would be the best to run it for 5 to 6 hours.

[@KYHill-billy]

Well, if your wanting to run it for 5 or 6 hrs then you're going to be looking at a very costly unit to be honest. The EF ECOFLOW DELTA Pro Ultra 6000Wh Power Station, which is on sale right now for $5,099. But you could save money by buying a cheaper/lower BTU window unit & buying an oupes mega5 for $3,000 or less or a OUKITEL P5000 for $2,599 all on amazon.

[@oscaresquilin1452]

How did you get a hold of Oupes? 2 emails and nothing.

[@KYHill-billy]

[e-mail] e-mail them & tell them your problem. I would take a video, so you have it when asked. Good luck my friend.

[@oscaresquilin1452]

@@KYHill-billy TY I will try this

[@myrtlepfister4613]

3:17 am I have heard that oupes is a good product from a couple of channels.

[@springflowerdark2137]

Did you go with the backup battery or did you buy it with solar panels? Which would you suggest more?

[@KYHill-billy]

I already had solar panels but if I had the cash id definitely get the backup battery!

[@johntorrence2195]

I got mine it is a beast but I have a question when charging does yours cut off and starts again and do your fan go in and out too sometimes

[@KYHill-billy]

Yes, it does & yes, they do. I asked OUPES about this & even sent a video. There reply was that the electronic parts are very sensitive but that is how it's supposed to work & there is nothing wrong with it. And so far, mine has worked like a dream!

[@johntorrence2195]

Ok just making sure thank u I have the mega 3 just having trouble with the app am glad I got one and very good review

[@johntorrence2195]

Just wait on panels not thanks

[@stephensanchez5761]

what is the battery set up in side the OUPES is it 12v, 24v, 48v?

[@KYHill-billy]

It is a 48v with 5040wh. with 4000w continues & 7000w surge.

[@californiatarheel6658]

Hey. Great video. Couple questions. 1). I have one, and when I charge my RAV4 Prime with the Prime’s 120v wall charger (1440 watts), the unit shuts down output after running for 5-10 minutes by bringing output to zero for maybe 5 seconds, then builds back up to 1440 watts. It then runs for another 5-10minutes before performing the same cycle again. Does yours do this as well? 2) can you confirm this will definitely provide output charge via the EV gun port? I thought it was only input. Thanks so much in advance!!

[@KYHill-billy]

Yes, all mega5's charge & then shut off then start charging again. It's a safety feature to keep the MPT from getting damaged. May I ask how much solar are you putting in? (solar wattage/panels?) And it will provide charging for EV gun port providing you get correct gun port with correct end for mega5 output. The mega5 has 5040WH so it definitely has enough watts for charging EV. If & when you buy your gun port, make sure which connector end it comes with to hook up to mega5 outputs. They make different ones but yes you differently can use the mega5. A level (1) EV charge port has a 110-ac adaptor for plugging into AC outlet which mega5. A level (2) is a 30Amp plug which the mega5 has & or also a charging hub wall mount that you can install in say a garage. But yes, the mega5 will except an EV charger gun. If i can help in any further, please e-mail or message me. Thanks for watching & please like, share, & subscribe. It really helps my channel. Godless.

[@californiatarheel6658]

Hey, thank you for the reply. My “stop start” happens on discharge. It never “stops starts” on solar charging. And I think it was the car, not the power bank. Just running a 1400w heater, I noticed no stop/start events. My array is small. Peak 800 watts.

[@KYHill-billy]

@@californiatarheel6658 If it's happening on discharge, I believe I would video it & send to oupes for them to look at it. That doesn't sound, right?

[@californiatarheel6658]

I’ll do that thank you. My latest problem is now that the batteries give out (voltage down to 100v AC) and shuts down on me.

[@KYHill-billy]

@@californiatarheel6658 I would definitely get ahold of oupes & get it replaced.

[@gabrielirlanda]

Hi, my unit was at 75% and decided to recharge for the very first time, when the display showed the 100% the unit kept charging, I could still hear the fans working and the little fan icon spinning in the display, is that behaviour ok? I thought it has a smart software for stopping the charge and preventing heatting the battery? Does yours work the same?

[@KYHill-billy]

Mine will hit 100% & it will still run fans sometimes for a few minutes. The fans have nothing to do with charging, they run when temp is high, but ounce temp goes down they will kick off. This is protection & cooling of batteries.

[@gabrielirlanda]

@@KYHill-billy thanks, I did the test yesterday night at 24°C inside the unit, but the fans kept working. What do you do? Just unplug the cable or turn off the AC switch protector first and then unplug the cable?

[@KYHill-billy]

Sorry for late reply but I didn’t get notifications on your comment. When it’s done charging I unplug my Solar connection & then turn off unit. Sorry again my buddy.

[@tumikekae9968]

Can you connect another mega 5 instead B5 as an extra battery?

[@KYHill-billy]

I'm not positive but I don't think so.

[@tumikekae9968]

Thanks you for your feedback. I appreciate it.Tumi from South Africa.

[@CHRISTOSCHRISTOU-qf6gr]

Hi. mega 5 It can be connected directly to the main switch of the house?

[@KYHill-billy]

It can be as long as you buy correct switch to tie into your breaker box. But I don't choose to do that. You will also have to look into codes in your area. That's why I ran my own electric line under the house & to my appliances & living room for tv/security cameras so I wouldn't have to tie into my home grid & also fool with codes. If you haven't watched my other videos, please check out a couple I have done on just that. Very simple to do. But keep in mind that the MEGA5 cannot run a central air/heat pump. Thank you for the question.
