The Importance of Portable Power Sources
In the modern world, portable power sources are becoming indispensable aids for home, work, and active recreation. With the constant increase in the number of electronic devices we use daily, the need for a reliable, environmentally friendly, and mobile power source is growing. A portable charging station is not only a convenient device but also an important safety element that ensures access to electricity in the event of emergencies or the absence of centralized power supply.
One of the key innovations in portable charging stations in recent years is the use of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. These batteries are characterized by high reliability, durability, and safety compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries. They provide more than 4000 charge-discharge cycles, which is twice as many as lithium-ion batteries. In addition, they are resistant to high temperatures and have a low risk of ignition.
What Do Users Want to See in Their Charging Station?
According to marketing research and user feedback, the main requirements for portable charging stations are high battery capacity, fast charging, compactness, and ease of use. Many users also appreciate the possibility of charging from solar panels, which provides them with independence from the grid.
Regarding functionality and design requirements, consumers want to see an intuitive interface, a durable корпус (casing), comfortable carrying handles, and the ability to control via a mobile application. An important feature is the availability of several connectors for connecting different types of devices.
Depending on the main area of application, buyers pay attention to different device parameters. For example, if a portable charging station was purchased for outdoor activities, its owners consider compactness, light weight, and battery capacity to be among the most important characteristics. Now let's see what the TM "Könner & Söhnen" offers to consumers.

Need a Powerful Charging Station >2000 W?
For users who need high power and advanced functionality, Könner & Söhnen offers the KS 2000PS and KS 3000PS models. These stations are also equipped with high-capacity LiFePO4 batteries and essentially combine several devices:
- powerful uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
- MPPT solar charge controller
- pure sine wave inverter.
The KS 2000PS and KS 3000PS can power your devices directly from solar panels or from the 230V mains, and when electricity from the sun or the grid disappears, the station supplies power from the built-in LIFEPO4 battery.
Energy in the battery of these stations can be accumulated in three different ways (from the central power grid, solar panels, or an inverter generator), and the priority of charging and power sources is set in the settings. The stations support fast charging and have intelligent functions for maximum energy efficiency.
- KS 2000PS: Nominal power 2000 W, capacity 1792 Wh, weight 30 kg. Ideal for use as a UPS at home or for powering several workstations in an office.
- KS 3000PS: Nominal power 3000 W, capacity 3225 Wh, weight 36 kg. Can provide power for a small house during power outages or be used for uninterrupted power supply of many devices simultaneously.
Models in this series have several 230V sockets, Type-C and USB connectors, allowing you to connect up to 10 different consumers simultaneously. For battery charging, there are AC (230V) inputs and connections for solar panels. The front panel features a digital display for convenient monitoring of charging status and energy consumption. To learn more about the interfaces and indicators of these stations, see the image below.
Speaking of the applications of these powerful stations, they are suitable for both mobile use and for organizing stationary autonomous power supply. They do not need to be constantly charged or have devices disconnected/connected to them. The station can automatically switch to power from solar panels, the 230V grid, or a generator, while recharging its internal powerful battery. And in the absence of energy at the inputs, it uses the stored energy to provide uninterrupted power supply at home, in the office, or at an autonomous point somewhere in a field or in the mountains.
