Usability

7.1 out of 10

It stores 3,430 Wh, in the upper band of the large tier below 3,500 Wh, so it scores 8 on capacity.

Its inverter is rated 3,600 W continuous with a 7,200 W surge at 120 V, so it scores 10 on power output.

Dabbsson states a full wall charge in about 2 hours at 1,800 W and 2,400 W of solar input, so it scores 8 on recharging.

Dabbsson's US spec table rates the cells for 4,500 cycles to 80 percent and the US manual for 4,000, so on the lower figure it scores 8 on battery life.

It switches to battery within 15 ms and one unit takes two DBS5300B batteries for 14,070 Wh, but Dabbsson sells no transfer switch or home panel for it, so it scores 6 on backup readiness.

Its US manual prints an ETL mark with no listing number and no certifier directory lists it by model, so it scores 2 on verification.

Better on verificationEcoFlow DELTA ProSGS lists it to UL 2743. $1,899Scores 8.0

Dabbsson gives it three years and extends it to five years on registration, applied automatically to orders on dabbsson.com, so it scores 8 on warranty and support.

Warranty and returns

Dabbsson's US policy gives each station in its warranty table three years plus two on registration, five in all, and takes unused US orders back within 30 days.

3,600 W at 120 V; 240 V takes A second unit

The DBS3500 is Dabbsson's 3,430 Wh LiFePO4 station, a 90.5 lb unit on wheels with five 120 V outlets including a TT-30, 16 ports in all and app control.

Verdict

It suits a buyer who wants 3.4 kWh and 3,600 W at 120 V for outages, an RV or a workshop, with 2,400 W of solar, and who will buy a second unit for 240 V and a transfer switch elsewhere.

In r/SolarDIY a DBS3500 owner found it too heavy to be very portable, had some issues that support resolved helpfully after several messages, and said it runs some appliances for a couple of hours, longer with a solar panel (about 2024).

GoogleProduct-line6.0 out of 10

No written test of the DBS3500 with measurements was found, so this reads the DBS2300, its closest Dabbsson sibling. CNET, which links to dabbsson.com through affiliate links and whose line "I love that it's a modular format" Dabbsson quotes on its home page, measured 2,007 Wh delivered from the plain DBS2300, 86 percent of rated, and a full wall charge in about 122 minutes (best-list updated March 2026). Trusted Reviews, which Dabbsson also quotes on its home page, called the DBS2300 the best expandable station it had tested and noted its 15 ms switchover was too slow for critical computers (July 2023). The Gadgeteer found the inverter inefficient on loads under 400 W, drawing 870 Wh from a full charge to run a 30 to 100 W load through a UPS, while it charged two other stations and ran 3,000 W of heaters in boost mode (October 2023).

  • Ran a welder, per one channel

Every channel carries a Dabbsson tie, and Dabbsson places all three on its own DBS3500 page. ReeWray Outdoors, which links to Amazon as an associate and passes on a Dabbsson coupon code, tested its AC capacity, expansion, solar charging, harmonic distortion, UPS mode and no-load drain and called it the best budget high-capacity expandable station it had tested (March 2024, about 22,700 views). Phandroid, in a video it says Dabbsson sponsored, found its capacity enough for a refrigerator, lights and devices in an outage (March 2024, about 11,700 views). Red Beard's Garage welded from it (date not read).

Dabbsson is the brand of Shenzhen Daipusen New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., which filed the DABBSSON mark at the USPTO, and dabbsson.com is run by Dabbsson Limited under Hong Kong law.

It sells direct from dabbsson.com and through listings on Amazon US and Walmart.com.

The Dabbsson DBS3500 is a 3,430 Wh LiFePO4 station, sold as "EV semi-solid state" cells, rated 3,600 W continuous and 7,200 W surge at 120 V from five pure sine wave AC outlets, four standard and one 30 A NEMA TT-30 for an RV, with three USB-C ports (two 100 W, one 30 W), three USB-A ports (two 18 W, one 12 W), two DC5521 outlets, a 12 V car outlet and two Anderson outlets (12 V 30 A and 24 V 15 A), 16 ports in all. Its US manual states a full wall charge in about 2 hours at up to 1,800 W, set from 200 to 1,800 W (600 W by default), 2,400 W of solar at 12 to 150 V, which the US page puts at 1.91 hours to full, and 3,400 W of AC and solar together, about 2 hours. The US spec table rates the cells for 4,500 cycles to 80 percent and the US manual for 4,000, and Dabbsson's FAQ counts 500 of the 4,500 as "extra cycles with BMS". It switches to battery within 15 ms in EPS mode. The US manual allows two DBS5300B batteries per unit, 8,750 Wh with one and 14,070 Wh with two; the 28,140 Wh and the 240 V, 7,000 W output on the US page need two DBS3500 units, four batteries and the A35S parallel connector, so one unit gives 120 V only. Dabbsson's transfer-switch guide names third-party Reliance switches as a reference rather than one it sells. It weighs 90.5 lb by the US spec table (89.7 lb in the manual), measures 20.9 x 12 x 15.4 in on two wheels with a pull handle, and connects to the Dabbsson app by Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The US store's unit variant includes a free 300E station in its title, a promotion of the day. No tester's measured capacity or charge time for the DBS3500 was found; CNET measured 86 percent usable on the smaller DBS2300 (March 2026). Dabbsson gives it three years plus a two-year extension on registration, five years in all, applied automatically to orders on dabbsson.com.
