Unclear as to how many liters or gallons the filters will handle. Instruction book says monthly. At $30 each, using for camping only, how can you store the unit without replacing filters. Price point seems about right. Best water to drink, !!
After testing the product out for the first time, I am very satisfied. It has passed my test and expectations. My friend who is a waste water operator ran the water through his facility and it came back as clean pure water. Thank you for the product and very excited for the future.
Collecting water is not the most prominent needs today but will soon be. This is why my ITEHL water purifier will be essential for my family. It is great to use on water collect in my rain barrel from my roof.
ITEHIL battery is LiFePO4, and just spend $400 to get it, I think that's cost-effective, while Jackery old ternary lithium battery still needs $500.
Wile living in Florida I realized that I needed a back-up for the generator. Yeah the generator will keep my fridge and freezer working, but it doesn’t really address the need to recharge smart phones and power a small fan if the power goes out. So originally I did order and purchase a cheaper power supply from a unknown brand. And as soon as I saw this and read about it here on this site. I immediately sent the other brand back and bought this one. So very impressed. Charges fast and everything worked and no defects. It’s a beauty and a keeper. The display gives a lot more information than what others give. And the outer shell is very sturdy and the handle. Although I was worried about the handle because of the weight of the power supply (it’s not that heavy). But after looking at it and seeing how the handle is connected I quickly realized that it’s nothing to worry about and that it won’t break while I’m transporting the unit from place to place.
As for questions I had? I was quickly responded to with answers from Ivy (great person). I do wish it had cover plugs for the outlets or a carrying case so I can store it and not worry about it except to recharge it every so often. I’m very happy with the price and quality of this item and the other stuff I purchased here on this site. Also regarding a quick delivery. I wouldn’t pay the extra $19.99 cost for a faster service because the shipping/delivery service and Covid has slowed things down. So just be patient and it will get to you within 5-8 days.
Don’t forget to download the warranty and instruction manual for the power supply and solar panel.
On a quick note you can put a outlet plug protector in the ac outlets. That’s what I’m going to do anyway. It’s a cheap and easy solution that will give me peace of mind.
I like that this ITEHIL IT500 has a LiFeP04 battery (should be durable).
I bought this unit with a discount coupon so felt it was a good value. We've had one power outage since we received this unit. it works with about a total 200w load (fan, several LED lights) and the outage lasted about 3 hours. The battery was barely drained and the unit was pretty quiet while running.
and I noticed something interesting, it turns out that leaving the front panels turned off when there's nothing plugged into them, it does appear to automatically turn off.
So I asked the seller how long the battery can last without any output. They told me it will last 3-5 years, but for battery life, it needs to be recharged every three months. That's mean after the first full charge, they stay ready when we need them any time. It's a great emergency power station for us.
I only give this water filter 3 stars because the owners manual is very short on good instructions. I had to contact the Customer Service via the webpage, three times to get any answers about the water filter. I also have a hole in the gasket that hooks to the water filter but was told that it was OK if it leaks Itehil will replace it.
I was unsure about how long it takes to charge the unit, and it had to charge for over 8 hours before it finally quite blinking.
I am keeping this water filter, but with much reservation over it.
I like the idea of have a battery operated RO water filter, I just don't like the lack of information that should be in the Owners Manual, but aren't. I can maybe give a better review later on, as I have only owned it for a week.
I hope it is a good one and really don't like to review things when I am not familiar with them.
More and better information would be very helpful to anyone who is buying this unit.
Telling customers to "watch a video" is not the best answer when a customer is wanting better information on this unit.
Sometimes we don't have good internet and can't use Youtube. So telling us to watch a video isn't the best answer to questions about YOUR RO Water Filter.
We live a couple of hours south of the East Palestine train derailment. Having the water filtration system gives us peace of mind that our drinking water is safe. Thank you
Waiting on a 16-foot USB-C charging cable for the water purifier and I just got the solar bank because it was such a good deal for your work. I hope to get panels sooner or later. Thanks!
Used it on camping with family last week, great RO water purifier with pump, not like Lifestraw has to lie on the ground to use.
This power station checks all the boxes. I ran a CPAP machine for 4 nights (8 hours) and still had 10% left in the power station after the 4th night.
I heard about this on Pinball Preparedness when he did a review of the 500, I knew this was just what I needed ! Small, enough out put to run my fans, computer and internet service ! And maybe charge a phone. It does all that with power to spare !! Every one doesnt need to run a whole house on a generator, or even a freezer or fridge. This one really fits the bill for a lower power need. Ans at a great price. I would have locked a better manual, but since I saw it on pinball, I just reviewed his video. I do still have a question ,Should I leave it plugged in to the wall after fully charged or should it be un plugged ? It really is a great little generator, perfect for my needs. It even powered my basic sewing machine !!!
Perfect for a Cpap machine when camping.
Wow is all I can say. 2 thumps up for this water purifier. It works fast any really cleans up the water.
Works great so far
Wow what a machine. It puts out cleaner water than my household RO unit.
I use it at home now too.
I am in the experimental faze. A solar rookie in fact. But I do research theses portable panels fit my budget. They were shipped promptly with no damage and all the accessories were included as described. So when I start to run the panels I would be happy to give another honest unbiased review. What better place to run solar then Florida the sunshine state.
I ended up getting two 100watt solar panels and the adapter and I don’t regret anything about it. I would do it again in a heartbeat. The panels are sturdy just like the power supply that I purchased a week prior.
When I purchased the second solar panel I knew there is an accessory pack that I would have to get for it. It was affordable and seemed that it would be just fine. However Ivy said they upgraded the accessory and because of that it will look different. I didn’t mind as I was told that if I wanted the older model of adapter to just send it back and they can swap it out. When I got the upgraded accessory.
When I got the upgraded accessory connectors. I was even more excited about it because of just being able to connect 2 solar panels I can connect 4. Not that I need 4 panels. And how it connected was even easier. However if you think about it “if” any single connector failed or got damaged of the 4 I would still have 3 other connectors. And I’m all about backups. No regrets here
The yellow XT60 port from the power station comes out like crazy, charges up faster with ITEHIL solar panel than other panels.
It's a little heavy for new LiFePO4 batterry, but good works, backup for when power fails.
If you need something for camping, and this is your only power source, then it is perfect. But you will need to charge it each day.
Really like the crystal clear display with all the input and output information that is displayed.
We bought this one as a stop-gap measure for the time, knowing that we will need a much larger unit later on.
