Brand New Original With Warranty
BioLite builds a range of sustainable energy related products that tap into the power of the massive nuclear fusion reactor in the sky that is the sun to enable an ever-increasing range of outdoor adventures. The BioLite BaseCharge 1500 is the company’s larger portable power station and packs just over 1,500 watt-hours of storage capacity — hence the name — into a compact package.
It utilizes Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) lithium-ion battery cells for a more compact package, enabled by the higher energy density of this particular chemistry. BioLite opted to package the BaseCharge 1500 in a squat rectangular form factor that feels stable and compact at the same time.
Looking at the specs on paper, the BioLite BaseCharge 1500 holds up to the competition with the exception of its curiously low AC figures. 120 watts of AC charging power and 1,200 watts of AC output power feel low for a battery bank with this much storage capacity. They stand out compared to other portable power stations of similar capacity and price which boast much higher AC power output capabilities even from units using the less energy dense LFP cells.
