[@SweetGypsyMamma213]

I’m waiting for mine to arrive. I ordered it last week.

[@4Patriots]

Awesome! If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

[@allenbaler5830]

Super excited and grateful for the folks who get theirs!

[@Woodworkjunkie]

Buying one!! Pretty powerful!!!😎🤙

[@4Patriots]

We appreciate you!

[@belindacherney5151]

Got mine! Just few questions. When / what % of use left do you recommend that a person should recharge the 2000x? Example with phones they say 5-25% battery left ,then you should recharge. 2nd question, any recommendations on how to clean unit? I was thinking electronic spray cleaner for outside & air for vents. Anything you think is good idea. Thank you.

[@alienprepper5918]

Yes

Thank you for your interest in the Patriot Power Generator 2000X! We appreciate your enthusiasm and understand the significance of being prepared for hurricane season, especially in Florida. If you have any specific questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We look forward to hearing from you soon! 4patriots.cc/KZbin-PPG2000X

[@pameladavis9744]

Got ours today. It will not charge via the cord to wall outlet. ‘Lightning’ charging indicator does not display. Will certainly return. Confidence in this product is gone. Disappointed as we needed this now.

[@4Patriots]

Pamela, we're so sorry to hear that. Please give us a call at 1-800-304-4202 or email us at [e-mail] and we'll gladly help with this!

[@belindacherney5151]

I didn't get an answer to my 2 questions below just a heart reply! Lol. Can you give advice on how to clean solar panel surface & generator? Also what percentage power left do you recommend to drain battery down before you start to recharge ? Thanks for the information.

[@4Patriots]

Belinda, we're so sorry about that. We recommend to give it a recharge when it's around the 15%-25% range. For cleaning the outside of the unit, we recommend to use a microfiber or soft cloth to clean with. We also agree that compressed air to get rid of dust would be a safe method! The main thing we say is to stay away from harsh chemicals.

[@belindacherney5151]

Thank you!!

Can you plug in surge protectors that have 3 or 4 plugs in the unit?

[@4Patriots]

Dave, you certainly can!

[@JoJo-c5r]

I bought the 2000X and it did not work well when I needed it for a tropical storm. It worked for about 1 1/2 hours fully charged! What good is that? I would definitely not recommend it to anyone.

[@4Patriots]

We're so sorry to hear this, JoJo. We wonder if you might've been powering something that requires a tremendous amount of wattage by chance. Please give us a call at 1-800-304-4202 so we can assist!

[@ygrittesnow1701]

Question and this is a serious question for me anyway. How many cycles will this have before it is a brick? I am considering something like this so the value has to justify the expense.

[@4Patriots]

Great question! This new generator has up to 2,000 full charge cycles. To put it in perspective, that's like if you used it daily for over 5 years.

[@ygrittesnow1701]

@@4PatriotsWhat happens after the 2000 cycles. Does it have reduced capacity? Are the internal batteries accessible for replacement?

[@Eli-qr9hc]

How long is the cord from the panels to the generator? If I set the panels out in the yard I would hope the cord is really long so it can reach inside the house when I set the generator near my refrigerator.

[@4Patriots]

Eli, our extension cables can reach up to 25ft in length!

[@Eli-qr9hc]

@@4Patriots is that from the generator to for example the refrigerator or the solar panels to the generator?

[@misslinda2740]

I just got mine last week.i was so excited! However, I'm missing 1 solar panel, the other solar panel came in damaged,& I didn't receive my extension cord either..I know you guys must be super busy; however, I've called several times & sent emails as well..No response for a week! Also I received someone else's packing slip in my order too..I've seen Excellent reviews & spent lots of money on your products.. Can you please have a Manager contact me? Thank you!

[@patriciasutton8655]

Just unboxed. Was at 49% strength. Plugged into AC. Is it supposed to make noise while charging?

[@4Patriots]

Hi there, Patricia! The generator should not make any noise while charging. Is yours making any noises? If so, please reach out to us at 1-800-304-4202 or email us at [e-mail] and we'll be happy to assist!

[@kingofqueens777]

It would be very nice if this generator worked with a central AC unit.

[@spinozaq]

AC units take a LOT of energy. It's really just a physics problem. This device could run single small window AC unit for about 1 hour on a full charge. If you need central AC to run without a power grid, you need a fuel-based generator.

[@4Patriots]

Unfortunately, it really is up to wattage requirements that you need to fulfill. We're sorry that it won't fulfill the needs of your AC unit, but it has uses for many other essentials!

[@4Patriots]

You're exactly right. It truly depends on how much power you need for the item you're running. While some devices seem so similar in their output, they may require far more wattage than others.

[@ashleywelch2143]

Over priced rubbish

We respectively disagree, Ashley. This system could quite literally save your life!

How long does it take to charge using one set of unfolding solar panels?

[@4Patriots]

One set of solar panels will charge the unit in about 16 hours. This time is cut in half with every additional solar panel.

[@garytrawinski1843]

@@4Patriots That assumes that the panel outputs at 100%. It won't and you know it. How about some truth for a change?

[@topnotchcarpet3095]

How many devices you can run at one time and how long will that normally last?

[@4Patriots]

That is a great question. The Patriot Power Generator 2000X has 4 AC outlets and a max output of 2000 watts. The total amount of devices you can power and their duration. Will all depend on the power draw of the unit that the Patriot Power Generator is connected to. You can find examples of this in the FAQ section of the following link. 4patriots.cc/KZbin-PPG2000X

[@leoparker7755]

How long does it take to charge from 0 to 100% AC and solar

[@4Patriots]

Great question! AC takes about 3 hours while one solar panel will charge it in 16 hours, 2 panels in 8 hours, 3 in 4 hours, and 4 in 2 hours!

[@ScaricoOleoso]

It accumulates, retains, and discharges stored energy. It's a battery. I'm gonna start calling the rechargeable batteries for my lawn tools generators.

[@4Patriots]

That's part of it! Through the transmission and transferring of solar energy through the solar panel to the conversion of solar energy into mechanical power through the battery, it's a textbook solar generator!

How do I charge the mini generator?

[@4Patriots]

Either with AC or through solar, Linda!

[@user-pf9vx7fd6m]

NOT a "GENERATOR"! It is a solar powered battery pack. Not a generator.

[@4Patriots]

Not quite. With the battery and the solar panels together, they create a textbook Solar Generator in which every solar market uses!

[@wheepingwillow24u17]

@@4Patriots SOMEONE I KNOW IS AN ENGINEER, HE SAYS THESE ARE CONVERTERS NOT GENERATORS. TRUE OR NOT?

[@RODNEYKEROWA]

I got one but it's not charging the battery and the appliances so need help please ..

[@4Patriots]

We're so sorry to hear that, Rodney. Are you saying the generator is not charging your devices or is not charging itself?

[@darrismashburn5410]

How long does it take for this unit to charge?

[@4Patriots]

With 1 of our 100w solar panels, it takes about 16 hours to fully charge if depleted. Each additional 110w solar panel cuts this time in half. Charging via AC will get your generator charged up in 5 hours!

What's the duration of powering up the fridge

[@4Patriots]

Thank you for your interest in the Patriot Power Generator 2000X. You can find this information in the FAQ section of the following link. 4patriots.cc/KZbin-PPG2000X

[@frankjgornickjr3676]

2,500 charges is not that much. One charge isn't even enough for a day so figure you have to charge it twice in a day. You're lucky to get two years out of it. Is it really worth it I don't think so!

[@4Patriots]

Frank, that would be true if you're trying to power up your microwave every second of the day since they are huge wattage hogs. If you were to use it for a fridge, which we recommend to use them for, that can charge for up to 13 hours at a time! You shouldn't have to worry about a power outage every day of the year (if you do, we recommend changing electric companies). If you only need one charge a day for every day of the year, your generator can last you for almost 7 years!

[@TommyDaSavage]

How long for a fridge? Just answer, I don’t want a link please.

[@4Patriots]

We are delighted to assist you. The Patriot Power Generator 2000X can power a fridge for around 40 hours before needing to be charged. 4patriots.cc/KZbin-PPG2000X

You may want to consider learning about "smart cycling" if you don't already know about it. That ups the game considerably. HAND.

Can it run a small 5000 Btu air conditioner?

[@4Patriots]

Potentially yes, but for only about 2 hours as that is quite high in watts.

[@BrettsCorner92]

@@4Patriots But with enough solar panels, you could probably keep it going, indefinitely. At least during the day.

[@garytrawinski1843]

@@BrettsCorner92 That's not true. This unit can only take 4 panels @ 100 watts X .85 = 340 watts. This is for 3 to 6 hours of peak sunlight (it depends where you live). If it is cloudy the amount of solar power will be drastically reduced. So, your statement is false.

[@4Patriots]

The battery is part of it, Michael, but with that and the solar panel working together to make solar energy convert into electrical power, that's a textbook solar generator!

[@odiscus1]

Looks like a power bank.. not a generator. Saying generator implies that it produces its own power. Ill stick with an actual generator.

[@4Patriots]

If you want to be technical, nothing is an actual "generator" as energy cannot be produced nor can it be destroyed, rather converted. Our solar generator transmits solar energy and converts it into mechanical power!

[@agp38]

"The input side lets you daisy chain panels together". THIS is a CRUCIAL piece of verbiage that should be included with every piece of documentation that goes with the items you ship, AND every video you've made that include hooking up solar panels. Mystifyingly, it was NOT included in the video about daisy chaining. Lol Please do better, 4Patriots. Get some actual laymen to review your material before you put it out into the wild.

[@4Patriots]

Thank you for your feedback! We do include that information in all of our user manuals as well as having a video right on our page that goes through daisy-chaining as a whole!
