    The ALLPOWERS P1800 reading covers its product line.

    What they say

    FOSSiBOT F1800

    • In r/SolarDIY an owner said his F1800 rarely passed 85 to 90 percent on solar alone, its input stalling at 320 to 350 W from two 200 W panels in series at about 48 V (June 2026).

    ALLPOWERS P1800

    • No owner thread names the P1800, so this reads its closest sibling, the 1,152 Wh R1500.
    • In r/GoRVing a UK owner's R1500 made a static or clicking noise above 30 W of AC load and would not connect by Bluetooth or Wi-Fi (2024), and in r/SolarDIY an R1500 owner could find no expansion battery for sale (March 2024).

    The FOSSiBOT F1800 reading covers its product line.

    What they say

    FOSSiBOT F1800

    • No credible written test of the F1800 was found, so this reads the F2400 sold beside it. best-batteries.com, which links to retailers' prices, measured 1,512 to 1,807 Wh delivered from the F2400's 2,048 Wh, 78 percent round-trip efficiency and a full wall charge of 2 hours 30 to 2 hours 45 minutes at 1,100 W on a 230 V unit (August 2026).
    • The Van Conversion, which passes on FOSSiBOT discount codes, put a full wall charge of a UK unit at about 2 hours 40 minutes from its measured rate (August 2026).

    ALLPOWERS P1800

    • Vantour, a French camper-van site that received the unit ahead of its review and sells it through its own price links, tested the 230 V European model: the station kept a workstation's external monitor running through a power cut, carried a hair dryer and the workstation at just over 1,000 W for about a minute, and was not loud at 50 cm while charging at about 550 W; it confirmed no expansion battery can be connected and found the screen labels the USB-C ports 100 W against ALLPOWERS' 140 W (August and September 2026).
