Ugreen’s next-gen PowerRoam range of portable power stations electrify SA

The Ugreen PowerRoam 2200W 2048Wh LiFePO4 Portable Power Station.

They use LiFePO4 batteries — the batteries that today’s top electric vehicle manufacturers are using globally

Portable power stations are quieter than traditional generators and, unlike a UPS, they are able to use renewable energy from solar panels to generate power, and thus reduce the emissions associated with traditional sources of electricity generation. They are an excellent solution for anyone looking to stay connected while camping or at festivals, and in South Africa, with numerous outages, portable power stations are also indispensable in the home; these days, you can even run your washing machine on one!

Ugreen, which already provides a great range of power banks, recently expanded into the power product portfolio and is now selling PowerRoam Portable Power Stations as well as solar panels. Ugreen is already a trusted name in South Africa — its cables and computer accessories are sold in stores and online throughout the country.

What distinguishes Ugreen PowerRoam Portable power stations from the other big names in this space is the fact that they are powered by top quality batteries from BYD Electronics, a subsidiary of the BYD Company.
