With plenty of established portable power pack brands out there, CTECHi caught our attention with the ST2000, a 2000 Wh, LiFoPO4 battery-equipped, 17-output-sporting unit with an unheard of 2-hour fast charging cycle that costs noticeably less than the competition in the space.

I have heard, there is a thermal problem, when the device is in cold area around 0 Grad Celsius it stops working. Can you try this out?

Nice to see more of these. Unfortunately, where I'm at, there's a lot of off-brand power stations that have questionable reliability and lack of reviews. Great to see TPU is coming up with more of these reviews.

Thanks for the review, Darksaber. This model looks to be an even better value than the Pecron models as seen on Hobotech.

Using 2 sets of triple 100w in series panels in connected parallel for a total of 6 panels would probably be the best bet.

you cant charge lifepo4 cells below 0 C it damages the cells.. some units have built in low temperature protection some dont.. at guess you can discharge but not charge the unit..
