The Lithium Cube EX18 offers a variety of connection options to support different types of equipment.
This variety makes it easy to charge phones, tablets, laptops, communication devices, and many other compatible electronics from a single portable power source.
The unit supports several charging methods to help keep you powered wherever you are. It can be recharged from a standard AC outlet, a compatible 12V or 24V vehicle outlet, or compatible solar panels connected through the DC7909 input. The built-in MPPT solar controller supports up to 400 watts of solar input, and the manual notes approximately:
Actual charging times may vary depending on conditions.
The integrated LCD display provides useful operating information including battery percentage, charging and discharge estimates, input and output power, charging status, and system notifications. An integrated LED light offers low, medium, high, and SOS lighting modes for added convenience around camp, during emergencies, or while working after dark.
The Wagan Lithium Cube™ EX18 is designed for a variety of practical situations, including:
The user manual specifically describes applications including emergency home use, job sites without power lines, camping, lighting, communication equipment, entertainment devices, and selected appliances.
Compared with a traditional gas generator, the Lithium Cube EX18 operates without gasoline and provides pure sine wave AC output. Unlike many lead-acid battery power solutions, it uses a LiFePO4 battery rated for more than 3,000 cycles to 80% remaining capacity under the manufacturer's stated test conditions. It also combines AC outlets, USB charging, DC outputs, and multiple charging methods into one portable system.
Customers should remember that portable power stations are designed for selected loads rather than powering an entire home continuously. Before connecting equipment, always verify that the appliance's power requirements remain within the unit's rated output.
The Wagan Lithium Cube™ EX18 may be an excellent fit if you want a portable backup power solution with multiple charging options and a broad selection of output ports.
