Anker, a global leader in charging technology, announced the launch of its PowerHouse 521 and 535 models in South Africa, providing a dependable and affordable solution to the country's persistent power instability.
The new lineup of high-capacity PowerHouse stations is powered by a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery like those used in modern electric vehicles and offers 6-times more use than conventional batteries. LiFePO4 batteries also offer improved discharge and charge efficiency compared to Lithium-Ion. The stations have been designed using an automotive-grade aluminium alloy that is corrosion and temperature resistant, providing unmatched durability to withstand the harshest of climates.
Furthermore, to ensure energy optimisation, the PowerHouse series features an energy saving-mode that automatically switches off the station once all connected devices are fully charged. Alternatively, users can disable the energy-saving mode to ensure that their devices are charged for more extended periods. Moreover, with a built-in LED light, the station series can keep you and your loved ones safe in the dark when there is a blackout. An easy-to-read LED display also shows the remaining battery capacity, the current input, and output status, as well as estimated recharge time on the front of the stations.
The PowerHouse models are designed with a keen understanding of the unique challenges South African consumers face. Key features of the range include pass-through charging, a substantial 5-year warranty, and a 10-year lifespan, providing customers with a long-term, reliable solution for their power needs.
"Anker PowerHouse is more than just a power backup, it's a necessity during load shedding periods," stated Faraz Mehdi, General Manager, Middle East, Africa & South Asia, Anker Innovations. "For instance, during unexpected outages, it can power utilities, allowing children to continue their studies without interruption.
