I am ecstatic in receiving a gift of portable electric DC power source with larger capacity and multi output options

in hive-109690 •  2 days ago 

The general specifications of this high capacity powerbank assembly is 24 AH for its auxiliary power output and using Lithium iron phosphate or LiFePo4 Batteries. It has a plus a 12 volt system output, and then for the USB port system it can deliver 5 volt 2.5 Amp output.

The top view shows the negative and positive terminals for charging via solar power coming from our own solar panels. It also shows the 12 Volt 24 AH auxiliary output terminal, and the 12 V DC output for 5.5*2.1mm plug. It also shows the heavy-duty handle and the Logo sticker which my brother had put on it.

The USB output terminals for charging and powering 5V devices and or appliances.

It has the output power of 5V 2.5 Amps each which makes it a fast charger.

If fully charged, the numbers will change to more than 14 Volts.

The car cigarette lighter or auxiliary power terminal

This can power-up any 12 volt appliances with with its particular output receptacle type.

Some features shown at the front of this high capacity power bank.

It shows that this power bank has a chip or micro computer and has a safety mechanism on top of safety fuses which my brother included inside it.

The power level indicator will indicate if you need to charge it using solar panels.

The DC 5.5*2.1mm plug Input

This can be plugged into the output terminal on top of the powerbank for 12 Volts DC appliances like DC lights and DC electric fans.

My eldest brother went home to us together with my sister-in-law and their son the other day and brought us his latest project which is his powerbank. It is not an ordinary powerbank because it is a very high capacity 12 volts and 5 volts charger respectively. It uses a solar power system which we do have but limited in quantity although it can be charged fast when using our solar set-up at home with only using a single panel to do the job. I am of course happy that my brother had given us this power source which can be a fast smartphone charger and a power source for 12 volt appliances like a fan and can sustain it with power for around 12 hours or so like what my brother told us after testing it on how it performs. He said that we can bring it as a power source and charger when me and my parents go for my dialysis so that they will not run-out of power when using the portable fan which my parents uses when waiting for me to finish-up my treatment session at dialysis which is a four-hour treatment session.

It is a good thing that we have this power source because my parents will have the ability to use their own smartphones while we are away from home. It is because both of their Smartphones have a dead battery and are only useable when connected to the power outlet of our house. The only thing now is how they will connect to the Internet since my dialysis clinic is not sharing the Wi-Fi. But I have a modem that can be powered by a 5 Volts and 1 Ampere powerbank plus a special step-up wire to convert 5V to 12V 1 Amp power and it is just right to be used with my LTE 4G modem which specifically use a 12V 1 Amp power. All that I have to do is that buy at least a 4G SIM card and load it with a Non-expiry data load which we can use for our Internet needs during my dialysis session although I do not need it because I can load the SIM card of my Smartphone with the same type of data load. But maybe I can opt-in for using another SIM card which uses another signal carrier service which in our part of the village has a good signal reception while the carrier that I use unfortunately has a weak signal.

My other brother in the other hand has a solar set-up already installed on the roof of their house and I think that they are using five solar panels. Their solar set-up is an on grid type which allows them to basically sell the power which is generated by the solar panels back to the grid and it gives them a credit score which would build-up for as long as the solar panels are generating electricity. Now they can use those credits from generating electricity at night or even during the day when they are not generating power anymore. So for that kind of set-up where credit is given to the customer while their solar panels are generating electricity is much better if they have more solar panels which I do think are cheaper to purchase now compared in recent years because there are many solar panels already in the market and it had made the price of the panels to go down which is a very good news to those that wanted to opt-in for this type of power source which actually will be free after the customer achieve a return of investment.

If my household were to use the same set-up of power source, it will take us to thirteen plus years to ROI because we only use around 1200 pesos or less worth of electricity per month. So if we will avail the same solar set-up like my brother has in their home we will have a freedom of not paying for electricity anymore for thirteen years if we will just consume an electricity with an equivalent of 1,200 PH Pesos per month. It is quiet a deal but at least we the ability to generate more credit then we can consume in this house. But the set-up like that would make us rely on electricity coming from the grid at nighttime which can be a problem because what if the grid has no power or there is a black-out or what we call here in my country a "Brown-out" at nighttime? So even if we have an ample amount of credit generated while the Sun was up at daytime, we cannot use those credits if the grid is down at night. But compared to when the Sun is up and the solar panels are generating electricity, we can directly use it with some of our appliances even if there is no power coming from the grid. So the solution for that is to store power in an alternative way but that will cost the customer a big deal because batteries are quite hefty in price considering that you needed a bunch of them when storing energy needed by the house especially of you plan to use the electricity for powering-up an air-conditioner plus other appliances in the house.

If God wills it for me, I might do the same thing as my other brother had done so that my parents and I will be free from using electricity without worrying anymore of paying the cost which unfortunately is high because there is a spot market for electricity prevailing here in my country where the cost of electricity can get costlier during the peak times of its usage. That is why compared among other countries surrounding my country with the cost of electricity, my country has the highest rate per Kilowatt hour which is a bog problem because it is a factor tooo that some investors are considering to invest here in my country because the high cost of electricity can really affect their businesses particularly now that there is an economic crisis which is really unstoppable and it affected many businesses already either to get bankrupt and close shop or command a higher price for their products or services.
