At the heart of the Promate 240 is a 24,000mAh sealed lead acid battery that can simultaneously charge/power up three USB devices and appliances thanks to three full-sized USB ports and a pair of 400-watt 220V outlets. Heck, it can even jumpstart a car!

Charging the Promate 240’s battery can be done using conventional means (by hooking its charger to a power source) or by harnessing the energy from the sun thanks to its built-in solar charging port.

I thought it would be something similar to the Tesla Powerwall. I was sadly disappointed.

Will this be a cheaper alternative to the Goalzero power stations?

For P9,999, I’d rather buy around 10 pcs of decent 10k mAh powerbanks than this. Mas portable pa at kung sakaling masira ang isa, I still have plenty more to spare.

Good. I can hook our DSL modem during power outage and use it for plugging an AC fan when needed.

In no way is this a generator. It’s a small car battery with an inverter plus a 5V voltage regulator in a pretty box, way too expensive for what it really is, not what they say it is. It does not generate any power on its own, it has to be plugged in to a wall socket, car or solar panels to charge the battery, so by definition, if it does not generate its own power it is not a generator.

For this price, pede ka na mag setup ng sarili mong emergency solar powered generator ( and the good thing is that expandable ).

Obsolete na iyan. Dapat lithium ion na ang battery inside. Mas magiging quality at gagaan pa.

its basically an inverter, charger, and battery in one box. what id like to know if pure sinewave output niya since ang mahal niya. also, how does it maintain its battery? kc batteries are good if malimit siyang ginagamit ie charge and discharge cycles. i had a spare car battery and an inverter,same as this one it was good for brownouts. naiwanan ko lng siya ng 2months, the battery went dead. one cell shorted out. so are these really good as standby power? or are they best in areas plagued by brownouts?
