I have ryi150 things a tank dropped it and sparked it still works! Flashes red constantly and still charges. Definatly impressed by thus new one though. The fact that you can reverse charge batteries is kinda genious. You can charge the baterry on the way to work on the carport and leave the big charger in the truck on smaller jobs where you may only need one or 2 batteries. If you need a quick charge pull out your phone charger. Smart will definatly get it when its on sale

I have the first version, it's really handy having 120v power that can use Ryobi batteries. Great for camping, or power outages. My only complaint is that it's not pure sine, so things like fans really don't like it. (they will work but they run very hot) That said it's great for being able to charge practically anything even things like camera batteries etc that may not have a USB charger. The new version looks pretty cool too given you can also charge the battery with it. I might need to grab one at some point.

Ordered one last night, picked it up today. Thought I would really like this, but after charging the battery (at least the four green lights indicated full charge) I got an error (red/green flashing) indicating charging fault. Took the battery out and checked the connections, put the battery back in and the green light came on solid. Ten minutes later, it was back to a red/green flashing error. Took it back to Home Deport to exchange it, but it took forever to get someone to come up and unlock the cabinet to get a replacement, so I just returned it.

@Koolbob2 11 ай бұрын

There are LOTS of charging cables available on Amazon, some include things like inductive charging for Apple Watch. If you are charging something that requires PD charging with a USB-C port, it's best to use a simple USB-C to USB-C cable. However, items that do not require high current can be successfully charged with a USB-A multi-charging cable like the one I have. There are lots of options, but I think this is very similar to the cable I have. www.amazon.com/Charging-USAMS-Multiple-Connectors-Compatible/dp/B07QXVCFD1/ref=sr_1_5?crid=53MJWCIOVSNF&keywords=multi+charging+cable&qid=1686592358&sprefix=multi+charging+cable%2Caps%2C130&sr=8-5

I wished they fixed the original flaw on these inverters. There should be a off on switch on the USB port. THe inverter draws small power to step down the voltage to 5v. So if battery is left plugged into the inverter it slowly drains your battery and after a few days the battery is done.
