Detailed overview: Allpowers P100 DC mini power station
The Allpowers Solax P100 is an all-DC mini power station with 99.2Wh, built for anyone who wants more power and capacity than a plain power bank, without needing a mains socket. At just 950g, it slips into a backpack pocket or cabin bag.
Its strength lies in its two 100W USB-C ports (128W combined with the 18W USB-A port), which quickly recharge a laptop, a tablet, a drone or a camera, on top of phones. Its LiFePO4 battery offers excellent durability with 2000 charge cycles before dropping below 80% of its original capacity.
For charging, the P100 accepts the mains via a standard USB-C charger (up to 100W), a car cigarette-lighter socket (60W) or solar power (100W, with a USB-C to XT60 adapter cable sold separately to connect a panel). A small screen clearly shows input and output power.
Its main limitation, worth keeping in mind before buying: there is no 230V mains socket at all, only USB-C and USB-A ports. It does not replace a proper power station for running a light or a small appliance with a standard plug. For a use case entirely focused on recharging electronics while hiking, travelling or working remotely, it is a surprisingly powerful and genuinely lightweight option.

What is this power station best for?

Hiking & Bivouac Ideal
At just 950g and pocket-sized, the Solax P100 is one of the lightest mini power stations for multi-day hiking: its two 100W USB-C ports quickly recharge a phone, headlamp, camera or GPS between stages. Its LiFePO4 battery (2000 cycles) handles several days on the trail without issue, and solar charging (100W, XT60 adapter cable sold separately) tops it up whenever the sun is out. With no mains socket, it stays focused on the essentials: keeping your electronics charged, without the weight of a full power station.
-
Remote work Suitable
For working away from the office now and then, the Solax P100 quickly recharges a laptop thanks to its two 100W USB-C ports, enough for a morning of video calls in a garden, a van or a co-working spot without an outlet. Its 950g weight and small monitoring screen make it easy to carry and keep an eye on. Without a mains socket or UPS function, it does not replace a proper backup station during a power cut: it is aimed mainly at topping up electronics, laptops especially.
-
Photo & Video Suitable
In the field, the Solax P100 quickly recharges a mirrorless camera battery, a drone or a laptop for offloading footage, thanks to its two 100W USB-C ports, without weighing down the camera bag (just 950g). Its durable LiFePO4 battery (2000 cycles) makes it a reliable reserve for regular outings. The lack of a mains socket limits it to devices chargeable over USB-C or USB-A: for an LED panel or an external monitor with a mains plug, a proper power station is needed.

Comparison
At around £70, the Allpowers Solax P100 compares directly with the Jackery Explorer 100 Plus, nearly identical in capacity and positioning (all-USB-C mini station, no mains socket), already in our catalogue. For those wanting a mains socket as well, our own Allpowers S200 (154Wh) shows the alternative with a 230V output.
| Criterion | Allpowers Solax P100 | Jackery Explorer 100 Plus | Allpowers S200 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 99.2Wh | 99Wh | 154Wh |
| Max power | 128W (USB-C/USB-A) | 128W (USB-C) | 200W (mains socket) |
| 230V mains socket | No | No | Yes, 200W |
| Battery chemistry | LiFePO4 | LiFePO4 | NMC (Li-ion) |
| Weight | 0.95 kg | 0.965 kg | 1.3 kg |
| Observed price | ≈ £70 | ≈ £89 | ≈ £80 |
Against the Explorer 100 Plus, the gap is minimal: near-identical capacity, same lack of a mains socket, and the Solax P100 is even a touch cheaper and lighter, with an extra USB-A port the Jackery lacks. The real choice is against our own S200: if you only need to recharge electronics (laptop, phone, camera), the Solax P100 does the job for less money and less weight; if you also want to plug in a light, a mini-fridge or anything with a standard plug, the S200 and its 230V socket become essential.

Our tester's review: Christophe Delpuech
The Solax P100 fills a real gap between plain power banks and stations with a mains socket: with its two 100W USB-C ports, it recharges a laptop or tablet almost as fast as a mains charger, and its 950g format fits in a backpack pocket. The LiFePO4 battery is reassuring for the long run (2000 cycles), and the small screen clearly shows input and output in watts. Solar charging is a real plus for hiking, but watch out: the USB-C to XT60 cable needed to plug in a panel is not included and must be bought separately. The main limit, clear from the outset, is the complete lack of a 230V mains socket: no plugging in a light, a mini-fridge or anything with a standard plug, only USB-C and USB-A devices apply. For anyone who only needs to recharge electronics while travelling light, it's a smart, genuinely portable pick; for backup power at home, a station with a mains output like the S200 is the better call.
Frequently asked questions: Allpowers P100 DC mini power station
No, it is an all-DC station: it only has two 100W USB-C ports and one 18W USB-A port, with no 230V mains socket at all. It suits recharging electronics, not powering devices with a standard plug.
Yes, up to 100W, but you need a USB-C to XT60 adapter cable (sold separately by Allpowers) to connect a standard solar panel fitted with an XT60 connector.
With 99.2Wh, it recharges a phone around 15 times or a laptop roughly 2 to 3 times, depending on consumption. Its two 100W USB-C ports allow fast charging.
The S200 (154Wh) has a genuine 230V mains socket and wireless charging, for more versatile use. The Solax P100 (99.2Wh) is lighter (950g) and all-USB-C/DC, built for anyone who only needs to recharge electronics.
