It’s time for a new kind of portable power: Yoshino B4000 SST

Portable power stations are seeing something of a renaissance right now in terms of popularity, performance, and capabilities. As brands explore what makes them so practical, the rest of the world prepares for the inevitable. Energy, or electricity, is growing increasingly more expensive while at the same time becoming less reliable. Between strains on the general power grid, natural disasters, and inordinate costs, many people are understandably looking for alternatives, especially those living off the grid. Portable power stations are a fantastic answer to this problem, with some meant to replace traditional generators as full-home backup solutions and others offering portable power — systems that can be used anywhere and that are more sustainable. At the forefront of that change is a new solid-state battery technology, and Yoshino is the first to launch the technology into portable power stations and solar generators.

Solid-state batteries are impressive for their advanced properties and functionality. For starters, they’re smaller and lighter in weight than your average lithium-ion battery. This allows for a lighter, smaller cell in a more manageable frame, which translates to better portability. They also have a longer lifespan and more power, so they can deliver up to 2.5 times the energy density of standard Li-Ion batteries, meaning higher capacities and performance. Finally, they use a solid electrolyte which makes them much safer overall.

So, what is the Yoshino portable power station using this new tech? It’s called the B4000 SST, and it has a massive 4,000-watt and 2,611-watt-hours capacity that, despite its size, can still charge from empty to 80% in just over an hour. Even if you know nothing about comparable power stations, it’s evident that’s quite the feature. Moreover, it can be transformed totally into a sustainable, eco-friendly power station with Yoshino’s optional solar panels for charging off-grid. Let’s embark on an off-grid adventure to learn more.

Besides its cutting-edge battery technology, the B4000 SST takes capacity and efficiency to entirely new levels. Even in its sleek, compact size, it offers a 2.6 kilowatt-hour capacity making it the optimal choice for off-grid and portable power. Whether you need it for RV trips, camping in the wilderness, or commercial and industry power solutions, it’s an excellent choice.

It will go the distance, too, thanks to the enhanced tech. Advanced Gallium Nitride (GaN) transistors offer greater efficiency than traditional silicon components, with reduced energy loss and an improved lifespan even when put under heavy loads. ETL certification, an Energy Assurance Labs safety testing pass, and an extended warranty offer much-needed reassurances in an ever-flooded market of less-than-stellar options.

Plus, with multiple ways to recharge the B4000 SST, including solar, AC charging via regular outlets, and car charging via DC outlets, it’s versatile and ready to power any adventure you take. The Yoshino App puts you in total control of the entire power system, as well. You can monitor capacity, enable or disable outlets, get critical usage stats, and much more.

This mini PC, and I do mean mini, has a Ryzen 7000 tucked inside for $200 off
Geekom A7 Mini PC with AMD Ryzen 7 for gaming showcased.

Computing, or small computing, has come a long way in recent years. Thanks to renewed interest in more manageable desktop sizes, even for PC gaming, we've seen a boon in the small PC world, namely with small form factor PCs (SFFPCs). For good reason, people are more interested in systems that take up less space, are more efficient, especially with energy usage, and can be placed in new areas, like their living rooms. There is now a whole category of small and mini PCs, and although they are bite-sized, they still pack a punch. Take Geekom's A7 Mini PC, which has an AMD Ryzen 7000 series tucked inside. That's no slouch on its own, but it also has 64GB of DDR5 RAM, WiFi 6E, and AMD Radeon graphics that supports up to four displays. All of that is packed inside an ultra-slim, space-saving case about the size of a book. Incredible. The top-tier model is currently $200 off, down to $649 instead of $849, when you use code digitaltrendsa7 at checkout. That code is valid in the US and the UK.
