Full in an hour, with 400 W of solar

The FlashSpeed 1500 is VTOMAN's 1,548 Wh LiFePO4 station, the FlashSpeed 1000's 15.5 x 11 x 10.6 in body with a larger battery, a 1,500 W inverter and a 1,500 W charger, at 41.4 lb.

Verdict

It suits a buyer who wants 1.5 kWh that refills from the wall in an hour for outages and camping, with loads under 1,500 W; a buyer who relies on solar will find 400 W slow for its size.

Another found it would not start a solar charge until the AC button was pressed (April 2024), and a third needed a button press to switch it on, with no way to start it remotely (April 2024).
