Not Holding A Charge

Purchased 07/06/23 for a camping trip. It performed okay. Last summer (2024) took it to Porcupine Mountains rustic campground fully charged. It would not charge any of our electronics. Tried to get it to work again this morning (04/12/25). It says it's fully charged but won't charge my phone, nor will the flash light work when unplugged from the wall. Seeking remedy for this via 2 year warranty policy before we start our next camping season!

Poor performance

I bought this power station in March 22 and have only cycled it about 10 times; its now august 22. It started with supplying 100 watts for 5 hours to some LED bulbs for a art featival booth. It now only lasts about 3 hours at 69 watts of load. Im very disappointed in the performance of this power supply. I'm hoping the item is defective and can be repaired or replaced; hoping this isn't status quo. The item discription said i would receive many many more cycles than 10 or i wouldnt have bought this unit. I'm hoping at least for a satisfactory response from westinghouse on restoring this power supply to meet our needs. we are ising 107 watts and it would be great if it could last for 8 hours but maybe 5 is max but 3 hours with a 69 watt load is unacceptable.

Unreliable - DO NOT BUY

I own the iGen600s and iGen200s. The 200 charges my laptop fully twice. I purchased the 600 for emergency medical device power. The box was damaged when I received the package. I opened and charged. I wanted to test the 600, so I charged my laptop once, and cellphone twice. Two days later, I attempted to charge my laptop again and the unit died after charging the laptop to 40%, well short of the unit's advertised capability. I am very disappointed. Many recent reviewers have posted after I purchased and had poor experiences too.

My new little friend

I recently purchased this power station to use when there is a short power outage instead of running my new portable generator. This has been a rainy spring in Texas so far and have experienced several power outages already. I love the small size and it has all the ports and sockets to power essential items. Great addition to my emergency kits.

2021 Tour of America

Just finished a 2 week tour of America and the Generator was my primary power during the trip. It was constantly in use. The unit powered fine from both the car and from the solar panel I had installed on the roof of my car. Was loving the unit. Then day 3 or 4 happened. The car outlet seems to have fail around the 3 // 4 day of continuous use. I was using the outlet to power a portable fridge and it was working like a charm for the 3 to 4 days of continuous use. Then it stopped working. Now, I can not power anything from the car outlet. However, the AC Cable adapter that came with the unit worked fine for powering the portable fridge.

Repeated and unfortunate issues

I am now on my fourth iGen600s and it too has issues. My original iGen600s worked great for about year and I put it through about 10 full cycles. Then I go to use for the 11th time and its dead. I charge it up, it holds a charge for a couple days and then dead again. It was replaced under warranty with a refurbished iGen600s that was DOA and wouldn't take a charge. That was then replaced with a new unit which worked for about 2-3 months and then had the same issues as my original. It was replaced again with what I believe to be a new unit, but this unit has issues too and will only charge to about 80%, at which point the input wattage drops to zero, yet it still shows charging. I'm holding out hope, and currently again in the process of getting this replaced under warranty.

Brand New Never Used Now a Dud

Bought this because we do craft shows and it was easier than paying for an electrical hookup. Charged it up the first night, haven't needed to use it since I bought it 2 months ago.It was also sealed in a water tight container. Went to double check on the unit to see if it still had a charge, and the unit had no charge. Plugged it in to charge it up, the unit would say it's charged, then after I remove the plug, got no power from the unit. Plugged it back in again, and battery meter showed the battery was dead. I repeated the process again to charge the unit, and again the battery would be dead in less than 30 seconds. It was a mistake to buy from Westinghouse

Nice features; think I got a dud.

I purchased this product in May 2021, didn't use it until June. Initial Charge LED was at two bars, and I got it up to three bars in approx. 1.5 hrs of AC outlet charging; the LED never got up to 100% charge, nor did the DC Input charging LED light ever come on, so I didn't really know if it was charging properly. I said I wouldn't recommend to a friend, however that could change depending up their making good on their service warranty product replacement.

IGen200's

The Westinghouse iGen200s Portable Power Station is an excellent choice for anyone needing a lightweight and reliable power source for outdoor adventures or emergencies. Weighing just over 4 lbs, this compact unit packs a 194Wh lithium-ion battery, capable of powering smartphones, laptops, cameras, and more with its 150W continuous and 300W peak output. With a generous array of ports—including AC outlets, USB (including Quick Charge and USB-C), and 12V options—the iGen200s can charge up to nine devices at once. It also includes a handy built-in flashlight with multiple modes and supports AC, DC, and solar charging. Though it's not ideal for sensitive electronics due to its modified sine wave output, the iGen200s delivers great value and performance for light-duty needs, making it a smart and affordable backup power solution.

Verified Purchase

Faulty equipment

Plugged it in to charge up and about 30 minutes later it was smoking and shorting out. Smelt like a fire was breaking out. Need to return it.
