The M82 is a pocket charger (88Wh, 80W, Li-ion). ALLWEI is 3x the capacity, real pure-sine 300W and LFP — the better backup unless you truly need pocket size.
See review →ALLWEI 300W (256Wh)
The ALLWEI 300W is a budget LFP power station that punches above its $149 price. 256 Wh of LiFePO4 (3,000 cycles, ~10 years), a 300W pure-sine inverter (600W surge), and 6 ports including a 60W USB-C PD. At 6.4 lb it's backpack-portable, runs silent and emission-free for indoor use, and recharges from wall in 3.5–4 hours or 2–2.5 hours with AC+solar. A built-in MPPT controller takes 60–200W panels. It's the honest sweet spot for a CPAP, a mini-fridge, laptops and phones during an outage — clean power and a decade of cycles without the premium-brand markup.
- 256 Wh LiFePO4 battery, 3,000 cycles to 80% — ~10 years of regular use
- 300W continuous pure-sine AC, 600W peak surge — safe for CPAP and sensitive electronics
- 6 ports: 1x AC, 2x DC5521, 12V car, USB-A 18W, USB-C PD 60W
- 3+1 recharge: wall 3.5–4h, car 3.5–4h, solar 4–5h (100W), or AC+solar in 2–2.5h
- Built-in MPPT controller accepts 60–200W panels (18–24V)
- 6.4 lb, 9.25 x 5 x 6.8 in; pass-through charging; 3-level LED light with SOS
- 5-year warranty
The good and the bad
- LFP chemistry at $149 — 3,000 cycles is rare this cheap; most budget rivals still ship Li-ion
- Pure sine wave makes it safe for a CPAP and laptops, not just phones
- AC+solar dual charging hits a full recharge in 2–2.5 hours — fast for the tier
- 6.4 lb and silent: genuinely usable indoors and in a backpack
- 300W ceiling rules out microwaves, kettles, hair dryers and full-size fridges with high surge
- Only 1 AC outlet — fine for one appliance, tight if you want AC + a device on AC at once
- 256 Wh is modest: ~3–4 hours of a cycling mini-fridge, not an all-day backup
- Lesser-known brand vs Jackery/EcoFlow — smaller support footprint if something fails
If this is you, you're in the right place
- Budget CPAP / overnight medical
Pure-sine 300W and 256Wh run a 30W CPAP (no humidifier) ~7 hours — a full night — for $149. LFP means a decade of nightly cycles.
- Mini-fridge + devices during outages
Handles a cycling mini-fridge for ~3–4 hours plus phones and a laptop. Silent and emission-free, so it works inside the house.
If this is you, keep shopping
- Anyone with heating-element appliances
300W can't run a microwave, kettle, coffee maker or hair dryer. For those, you need 1,000W+ — look at the Bluetti AC180 or EcoFlow Delta 2.
- All-day or whole-home backup
256Wh is a few hours of essentials, not a day. For sustained backup, step to a 1kWh+ unit or a generator.
How long it lasts on real loads
Estimates apply 85% inverter efficiency to the rated capacity. Real-world numbers vary with temperature, battery age, and appliance duty cycle.
| Load | Watts | Hours | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPAP (no humidifier) | 30W | 7 h | |
| Mini-fridge (cycling) | 60W | 3.6 h | |
| Laptop + phone | 80W | 2.7 h | |
| 12V camping fridge | 35W | 6 h |
