Zendure, a California-based tech company specializing in mobile power solutions, has just announced the release of SuperBase 500, a power station that weighs just 11 pounds (5kg) and can provide up to 600W of AC power, on Kickstarter. The new power station has a total of nine output ports and can be recharged in as little as three and a half hours.
A Convenient and Eco-friendly Alternative to Gas Generators
While gasoline-powered generators have been the standard solution to mobile power needs, they have some key disadvantages. They tend to be noisy, they release odors and pollution, they have to be operated in a well-ventilated area, and their many moving parts not only make them bulky and heavy, but also require regular maintenance for reliable operation.
These days, many people are opting for rechargeable power stations like SuperPort 500, which are lighter, quieter, and can be operated safely indoors.
Small but Mighty
There are many large power stations on the market that hold a great deal of energy, but they can be so heavy and oversized that they don’t always make it onto the pack list. And if you’re planning to store your power station someplace in case of an emergency or power outage, a builkier product is more likely to be tucked away in some back corner where it’s less accessible.
SuperBase 500 was designed to be easy to pack and carry, and it’s compact enough to sit comfortably on an easy-to-reach shelf or cabinet in your closet, garage, or in the trunk of your car. After all, a power station is only useful when you have it with you.
Despite its small stature, SuperBase 500 does not skimp on power. Its dual AC outlets can deliver up to 600W of combined AC power (pure sine wave), so it can run or charge just about anything, from a phone or laptop up to a small appliance like a mini fridge or coffee maker, or even a CPAP machine.
Power 9 Devices Simultaneously
SuperBase 500 features a variety of output ports and can charge up to 9 devices at the same time. This means you can take SuperBase 500 on the road and leave your bulky proprietary chargers behind. SuperBase 500 is equipped with two DC output ports, two AC outlets, a cigarette lighter port, two USB-C ports, and two USB-A ports. Whatever you’re hoping to charge, SuperBase 500 probably has a port for it.
SuperBase 500 supports USB-C PD at up to 60W to power most Type-C laptops, phones, tablets and other digital devices. The USB-A ports deliver up to 18W with QC 3.0 and FCP fast charging protocols for your phone or other mobile devices.
518Wh Capacity for 1- or 2-Day Treks
With 518Wh/140,000mAh capacity, SuperBase 500 can supercharge your weekend trip, camping under the stars, hiking the hills or photographing the landscape. Or, if an unpredictable power outage occurs, SuperBase 500 will be your reliable companion to light up your night and provide a full night’s power to your essential devices.
5 Ways to Recharge
SuperBase 500 can be recharged in 5 different ways: DC input (with the included AC-to-DC transformer), PD input, your car, a solar panel (available separately), and dual-charge input configuration. Dual-charge can charge SuperBase 500 in about 3.5 hours by using the 95W DC input and 60W USB-C PD input simultaneously.
100W Solar Panel Also Available
If going green is your thing, you can charge SuperBase 500 with a 100W external solar panel (available separately). SuperBase 500 supports Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for optimum charging performance. Zendure’s 100W foldable Solar Panel weighs just 8.8lbs/4kg and offers up to 18.6% conversion efficiency, providing enough power to fully charge SuperBase 500 in about 11 hours.

SuperBase 500 is available right now on Kickstarter with early bird pricing starting at $459 USD. SuperBase 500 and Zendure’s 100W solar panel are available as a bundle for $599.
