Our family has owned and reviewed power stations from a large variety of manufacturers, including Goal Zero, Jackery, EcoFlow, Bluetti, Rockpals, and other brands. About 2 years ago, we gave the BigBlue CellPowa500 a try when they launched on Kickstarter. It was a surprisingly good product that we are still using to this day. It has been sitting in our minivan fully charged and ready to power our car freezer at any time. Why a car freezer? Grocery shopping. Groceries? Yes! I use bigger ones for camping and road trips, but nothing feels better than an ice cold drink (soda, beer) after a long day of hiking. BigBlue came out with their 1,843Wh battery recently and so I was curious to see how it would perform against other LiFePO4 power stations. In this review, I will go over: - Li-ion NMC vs Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery cell differences - Pros and Cons of this BigBlue battery - Basics like Watts, Watt-hours, Continuous vs Peak rating, and more There has been an increase in people taking emergency preparation more seriously amidst climate change, wildfires, hurricanes, flooding, and so on. BATTERY TECHNOLOGY AND SAFETY Goal Zero debuted with Lead-Acid batteries that were bulky and heavy. Today’s devices use NMC for more power in a smaller, lighter package. The two popular ones are NMC and Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4). Li-ion NMC, however, is more volatile and becomes riskier as more cells are packed together. The BigBlue uses Li-ion LiFePO4. LiFePO4 vs NMC CELLS Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries -- which this BigBlue uses -- are bulkier, heavier, and cost more than NMC. However, they excel in these areas: - Less volatile and thus, safer - Charge cycle: 1500-2000 (10+ years) -- NMC: 20-25% capacity loss after every 500 cycle (6-10 years with up to 2000 cycles, but diminishing capacity over time) - Usable in high temperatures. NMC: only 140F/60C max - Holds 350-day charge. NMC: 300 Technology improves all the time and so with today's batteries, you can actually get quite a few more cycles out than the general guideline above. MY USE CASE For the very reason that this battery is made with LiFePO4 -- which is safer than NMC -- I am feeling sufficiently confident to keep the battery in my car's trunk at all times if needed. I already am keeping the BigBlue CellPowa500 in the minivan in the hot, summer heat. Previously, I had used a Rockpals 300Wh and Goal Zero Yeti 500x, and with Goal Zero's blessing, the 500x was ok to be used during the hot, California summer days where ambient temperatures can reach as high as 108F (and of course a lot hotter in a car.) The BMS would and should automatically shut off the battery once its internal batteries were too hot. What the battery was used for was to power my small car freezer for grocery runs so I would not have to rush home to minimize melting. It would allow the car fridge to keep running while the car was off. The Rockpals and Goal Zero always still gave me some concern because they are NMC batteries, and so I decided to get a LiFePO4 battery to replace them with. ABOUT BIG BLUE The CellPowa 2500 battery caught my attention on the crowdfunding site after my positive experience with the CellPowa 500. I had been following their progress and news coverage and was excited to see a larger model being developed. It finally became available on Amazon, and so I grabbed one to see how it would compare to my Goal Zero and Jackery batteries. IN A NUTSHELL The BigBlue CellPowa 2500 is a modern-looking power station with very clean lines and a professional look. Its "2500" model number is a bit misleading as it only provides 1,843Wh of battery capacity. Most manufacturers model their power stations on the Wh capacity and not on its standard Wattage output. In this case, the BigBlue outputs 2500W with a 5000W surge. The 2,500W of energy (and peak of 5,000W) gives it a NICE advantage in that it provides enough power for a good amount of electronics and appliances, such as a laptop, television, fridge, medical device (like CPAP), and car freezers, and even rice cookers, vacuum, water boiler, or circular saw. The hard, plastic material used to help shed weight (and cost) could be prone to cracking from hard falls or bumps, potentially exposing the LiFePO4 batteries to puncturing. The fixed carry handle on both sides makes it easy to lift up, though the battery is very heavy -- as expected with LiFePO4 at that battery capacity. LiFePO4 batteries are infinitely SAFER, heavier, costlier, and have a longer charge cycle (battery lifetime) than NMC. The 1,843 Watt-hour capacity provides it with enough charge to power a 60W laptop for up to 26.1 hours (1843Wh x 0.85 efficiency loss / 60W), a 40W CPAP for 39.1 hours, or a 110W Amazon Toshiba TV for 14 hours. Functionally, this is a good, portable power station with a multitude of AC and DC outputs. BigBlue included 4 USB-C ports that make it useful for charging supported laptops. A MPPT solar charging controller is built-in. These modules are more expensive than PWM ones and provide for more efficient, faster charging via solar panels. The display screen is impressively sharp and bright and provides sufficient, colorful information about the battery's runtime. The screen, in a surprise, is touch-sensitive. This makes navigation fast, but it also worries me that if the screen cracks, many controls will stop being available to you unless you already paired the product with your smartphone and the BigBlue app. A GPS is built in. Honestly, I find that to be very gimmicky. The company markets it for emergency use so you can provide or record your exact location. So does your phone. I do not see value in this feature. Performance wise, the power station output good, clean energy and charged VERY fast (at the expense of louder noise. You can control the charging speed from the app or LCD screen. By lowering it, the less noisy the fan, but longer it would take to charge to full. I loved that the company finally got rid of the AC brick and integrated it into the unit itself. All you have to do now is plug in the cable and voila -- ready to charge. The CellPowa 2500 was slightly larger than the Jackery Explorer 2000 Pro in height. I do not understand why the company decided to put the LCD screen on one end and the input/output ports on the sides of the product. That makes it difficult to plug items into the sides when space may be confined (think about when the battery is stored inside a cabinet in an RV). You need the LCD to face you so you can read the status of the battery and also make configuration changes. You COULD use the smartphone app to control, but that's beside the point. I feel that the LCD should be housed on one of the sides where the output plugs are and move the side fans to the wider side instead. It seems that the company missed an opportunity there with an awkward design. However, if you can make the location of the ports and screen work, then this point would be mute. The battery now uses the XT60 connector and came with MC4 solar and a 12V car plug cable. A pen to control the screen with was a nice, but unnecessary touch. Overall, this battery's large capacity, fast charging, and solid performance makes it a good power station with a long life due to its use of the Li-ion LiFePO4 battery cells. CONTINUOUS VS PEAK OUTPUT - BigBlue CellPowa 2500: 2,500W (5,000W Peak) Before we continue, it is important to understand the difference between Watts and Watt-Hours. How much power is used or produced is measured in Watts, and how much energy a battery can store is calculated in Watt-Hours. See the “Calculations” section below for more details. How much energy a battery can store is measured in Wh (Watt-hours), and how much power is used or produced in W (Watts). - AC Inverter: Converts battery (DC) power into AC -- CellPowa 2500 provides 2,500W continuous output with a 5,000W peak - Peak/Surge (Starting): Nearly every device initially draws extra power to turn on. The highest amount it pulls is the Peak. As long as that number is below 5,000W, it can be STARTED. Examples… -- Turns on OK (PEAK under 5,000W): --- Freezer starts at 400W (peak), runs at 150W once on --- Home AC starts at 4,000W (peak), runs at 1,000W once on -- Will NOT turn on (PEAK over 5,000W): --- An appliance that starts at 6,000W (peak), runs at 2,000W once on Most devices power on at a higher (Peak) wattage than when they are already on (Continuous). Therefore, if its peak exceeds the power station’s max, it may not be able to start Continuous Output (Running): Once devices are on, as long as they keep drawing less than 2,500W total, they will stay ON until the battery runs out - CONTINUES running (under 2,500W) -- 100W TV + 60W laptop = 160W - COULD STOP running (over 2,500W) -- Temporary overdrawing beyond 2,500W for a few seconds is okay. A quality BMS will protectively shut down the battery if the surge does not end after a while. Regularly going over for a prolonged time can ruin the battery in the long run -- 300W appliance (500W peak) + 220W appliance (400W peak) + 1,000W Home AC (4,000W peak)= 1,520W. Will run fine --- Add a 1,000W heater = 2,520W. Will likely still work as it is still under 2,500W. --- Add a 500W appliance = 3,020W. Will likely shut down the battery. CALCULATIONS What size battery should you get? How long will it power your fridge for? How long will it take to recharge? The below calculations can help answer those questions and are rough ESTIMATES as conditions, battery quality, and age can vary. CHARGING TIMES Time to Charge This 1,843Wh Power Station - Calc: Hours to charge battery = Battery capacity (Wh) / Input Wattage -- Note: As battery approaches 75% full, the input charge will increasingly be slowed down to prevent overcharging - AC Wall at Max input: 1,200W @ 1.5 hrs [1,843 Wh / 1,200W] - AC Wall at Lowest input: 400W @ 4.6 hours [1,843 Wh / 400W] WATTS USED/PRODUCED BY A DEVICE - Calc: Watts used or produced by device = Voltage x Amperage - Vacuum with 120V @ 9.5A uses 1,140W - Solar panel with 12V @ 10A can produce up to 120W IDEAL BATTERY POWER STATION SIZE - Calc: Battery capacity (Wh) = Watts used by device x Hours needed for / 0.85 -- 10-15% of power is lost during power conversion - 45W car fridge needed for 8 hours: Minimum 424Wh power station (45W x 8 / 0.85) TIME BEFORE BATTERY IS EMPTY - Calc: Hours available for device = Battery capacity (Wh) x 0.85 / Watts used by device -- 10-15% of power is lost during power conversion - 60W laptop with 505Wh battery: Up to 7.2 hours (505Wh x 0.85 / 60W) TIME TO CHARGE A DEVICE - Calc: Hours to charge device = Device’s battery capacity (Wh) / Input Wattage - 60W laptop with 200Wh battery: Up to 3.4 hrs (200 Wh / 60W) TIPS - Always test your devices with the power station before you depend on it on the go - You cannot jump start a car with this type of battery. Look into the NOCO Genius products for that instead -- To minimize fire damage to your belongings or loved ones, store the power station in the garage and not inside the house. Best storage is a dry, cool place, however -- You cannot bring a battery of this capacity on a plane - With the right BMS, quality batteries, and other factors, the power station can be stored in the car while camping during a hot, California summer -- Keep the battery out of direct sunlight. I usually store it on the floor of the car and crack open the windows a tiny bit -- Do not USE in the car if temperatures fall below or exceed the battery's rated, operating temperature - If using a car charger, make SURE you only charge this station while the car is RUNNING. Otherwise, you'll deplete your car's battery and leave you stranded - If charging with a solar panel, be sure to keep the station out of direct sunlight as it could overheat -- A solar panel is NOT required to use the battery - Turn off any output ports (AC/DC) that are not being used in order to conserve power - Do not use any power station in a tightly enclosed area as it can overheat - To prolong the battery lifetime while in storage, keep the battery fully charged every 3-6 months -- Or, keep it plugged in when not in use and discharge it to 50% every 3-4 months -- NOT using the battery for a very long time can actually hurt its lifetime -- There is no "memory effect" in this station's battery. It is better to NOT let it completely drain FINAL THOUGHTS The BigBlue CellPowa 2,500 is a good battery if you can overlook the awkward placement of the input/output ports in relation to the LCD screen. The 2,500W of energy (and peak of 5,000W) provides plenty of power for practically any electronics and appliance, including a miter saw and Home AC unit, yet is portable enough to carry around on a camping trip. At 1,843Wh battery capacity, it could power a car freezer in 90F ambient temperature for at least 4-5 days. (Keep it and the freezer in the shade for longer runtimes). Its LiFePO4 batteries are safer to operate than the NMC ones used in Jackery and Goal Zero's products, although both manufacturers are switching to LiFePO4 too due to increased demand. The hard, plastic material commonly used by power stations to help shed weight and cost could be prone to cracking from hard falls or bumps, and as such, this product should be handled with care - a puncture of the batteries could cause severe harm. So, is this BigBlue better than Jackery or Goal Zero? If you want something safe that won't easily burst into flames, has a longer overall lifetime, and is relatively inexpensive, the BigBlue is a good choice -- although, as I had stated, both competitors are starting to embrace LiFePO4. If you want something lighter from companies with proven track records, then BigBlue may not be something you want to get at this time. For me, I am happy with the CellPowa 2,500. ... show more

I originally ordered 2 of these on IGG when they were first introduced and haven't been disapointed. These have plenty of power to run a coffee maker, microwave, power tools, TV, or fridge when the lites go out at home. A battery this size makes sense as anything smaller can't run home kitchen appliances. The CellPowa has simple controls, very fast ups, pass thru charging, LiFePO4 battery, and quiet operation. You can run this unit to power household devices on 12V or use 120V inverter. The pass thru charging feature is a must for anybody running portable fridges, fans, pumps, portable lighting, or other devices on back up power. Here is your back up power solution if you have condo or rental that won't allow gas generators, . Best of all, Amazon has the best $ deals and delivery. The current 1/2024 prices beats the 2022 intro prices and yesterday, Big Blue was adding a 200 watt solar panel as a promotion on Amazon orders.

    • Big and Super Heavy!

This was the best deal for the price. I needed something with a high wattage that could be fully recharged in 2 to 3 hours. I plan on running a van fridge, 600 watt microwave, Kuerig coffee maker, 1600 watt air fryer, 1600 watt induction stove, 1800 watt blender, ice maker, tv, etc with it. Basically I want to take any household appliance with me and use it while on the road. This thing is huge and heavy so I don’t have to worry about anyone casually walking off with it. It charges really loudly but works pretty quiet. I will also use this in my home in order to bring down my electricity bill. My hope is that the initial savings will pay for what I spent to buy it. After this return on my investment I hope it continues to bring me savings in my home and utility while on the road traveling and camping. 4 years ago this would have easily cost over $4000 but now you can get it for under $1000! ... show more
