Before talking about this great power station, let me alert
you to instructions you need to follow to the letter. At the
bottom of page 2 of the manual you are instructed to
charge the power station to 100% before using. Mine
arrived at about 80%, so I ignored the instructions and then spent a half hour trying to figure out why it wouldn't
deliver any power. I finally noticed a hard to read sticker
on the back of the unit that said to "Activate" the unit you
first had to recharge it (completely). After doing this the
power station worked perfectly.

This power station is well suited for home power outages,
travel, and camping. It has a good collection of outlets
to serve most needs. I particularly like the included
"night light". It draws only 3W, and provides adequate
lighting for a small area - see my photos of it in a dark kitchen on and off. It can provide about 62 hours of light
if nothing else draws power. This can be very helpful
during an evening power outage.

This sleeve is not fireproof. Also, I would advise not putting
it with your laptop in the overhead compartment. The risk
of damage there is too great. Put it where you have more
control - on the floor in front of you, or the seat pocket in
