UFO Lithium Power Generator 1500 Review – Portable Solar Panels Enough Energy Storage?

UFO Power Generator is a portable power generator created by the team at 4UFO, LLC. The generator promises to help your family survive when the electrical grid goes down.

 

Let’s review the UFO Power Generator 1500 system and see if it is the ‘magic bullet’ protection against power failures, blackouts, outside threats or a crumbling electric grid.

What is the UFO Power Generator?

The Patriot Power Generator is a portable power generator that uses a solar panel to generate electricity. The Patriot Power Generator is an extension of the Power 4 Patriots system, which was a guide created.

The company has been associated with its fear-based messages and tactics for propaganda-like approaches. To entice you or educate you, buying the Patriot Power Generator 1500 from 4Patriots describes how hundreds of attacks have been launched against the American power grid in the last four years and it is best you have some sort of energy to power your devices and useful electronics. They also claim that terrorists from ISIS, Iran, Russia, and North Korea are actively attempting to sabotage the American power grid on a near-daily basis – whether this is a bit too aggressive or not, portable power units are a growing trend due to the increasing demand in going off grid or even just having simple backup power storage ready.

If terrorists don’t scare you, then UFO Power Generator at least promises to help you save money off your utility bill. All jokes aside, emergencies are not easy to prepare for but in some cases you can get practical and even tactical use out of having a portable and mobile generator to power up your daily devices and units.

Let’s take a look at how this power generator claims to work.

How Does the UFO Power Generator Work?

The UFO Power Generator claims to work by combining a solar panel with a portable power generator. Here’s what’s included with your purchase:

37.5 pound generator that arrives fully charged and ready to go
100 watt folding solar panel with cells made by Bosch
25 foot solar panel extension cord
That’s the system. UFO Power Generator also throws in a bunch of other survivalist tools unrelated to power generation. You get food survival kits, for example, a Survival Spring Personal Water Filter, a multi-tool, and a pack of playing cards.

To use the system, you set up the solar panels on the ground or vertically. Then, plug the panels into the portable power supply. Once you have something that needs to be charged, plug your electronics into that power supply to keep them charged.

There’s also a “Platinum” package that includes a second solar panel along with a carrying bag.

The generator itself features a rechargeable lithium ion battery. When it’s hooked up to your solar panels, that battery will steadily recharge itself. 4Patriots makes a big deal that this battery is superior to a lead acid battery, although in reality, almost all electronics use lithium ion batteries today – so it’s not really an advantage over other generators.
