OUPES Exodus 700 User Guide: From Portable Power Station to Solar Generator Kit, Which Setup Is Right for You?

A portable power station that is truly suitable for outdoor use should do more than simply answer the question of whether it can provide power.

It also needs to strike a balance between capacity, output power, weight, and recharging options:

It should provide enough power for commonly used devices without becoming a burden due to its size and weight; it should be easy to charge at home before departure, while also allowing you to continue accessing energy after leaving the grid.

The OUPES Exodus 700 is designed around these needs.

It offers 576Wh battery capacity, 700W continuous AC output, and up to 1200W surge power, while weighing only about 13.9 lbs (6.3kg). It also features 7 output ports, 140W USB-C, up to 240W Solar Input, a LiFePO4 battery, 10ms instant backup switching, and smart APP control.

For camping, road trips, and off-grid use, the Exodus 700 can also be paired with a 100W or 240W Portable Solar Panel, transforming it from a Portable Power Station that stores energy into a Solar Generator that can continuously recharge using solar energy.

So, what kind of user is the standalone Exodus 700 best suited for? When is it better to pair it with a solar panel? And how should you choose between the 100W and 240W Solar Panel?

The Exodus 700 is not designed to replace a large home energy storage system. Instead, it uses a more compact form factor to cover scenarios such as Camping, Road Trips, outdoor photography, fishing, mobile work, and short-term home backup.

Its core advantage can be summarized as:

It provides significantly greater energy storage and AC output than a typical power bank, while remaining easier to move and carry than a large Portable Power Station.

576Wh and 700W: What Is the Difference?

When buying a Portable Power Station for the first time, it is easy to confuse Wh and W.

In reality, they represent two completely different concepts.

576Wh: Determines How Much Energy You Have

576Wh represents how much energy the battery can store.

When powering the same devices, a larger Wh capacity generally means:

  • Longer runtime
  • More charging cycles for phones, computers, or cameras
  • More energy headroom for multiple devices

So, 576Wh is essentially answering the question:

“How long can I use it?”

For camping, mobile work, and road trips, this capacity level provides a balanced combination of portability and runtime.

700W: Determines What Devices You Can Connect

The Exodus 700 provides 700W continuous AC output and up to 1200W surge power.

It answers another question:

“Can this power station run my device?”

With 700W of continuous output, the Exodus 700 can support a wide range of everyday electronics, camping gear, mobile work equipment, and selected small appliances. Here are some typical examples:

Device Typical Power Consumption Estimated Runtime* Typical Use
Smartphone 5–30W 15.4–92.2 hrs Camping, travel, emergency communication
Laptop 45–140W 3.3–10.2 hrs Remote work, photography, content creation
Wi-Fi Router 10–25W 18.4–46.1 hrs Home backup, remote work
LED Camping Light 5–30W 15.4–92.2 hrs Camping, emergency lighting
Camera / Drone Charger 30–150W 3.1–15.4 hrs Photography, drone charging, outdoor creation
Portable Fan 20–80W 5.8–23.0 hrs Camping, RV, home backup
CPAP Machine 30–60W 7.7–15.4 hrs Overnight use, emergency backup
TV 60–150W 3.1–7.7 hrs RV, camping, home backup
Portable Projector 50–300W 1.5–9.2 hrs Outdoor movies, presentations
Mini Refrigerator 60–150W Running Power 3.1–7.7 hrs Camping, road trips, temporary backup
Electric Blanket 50–150W 3.1–9.2 hrs Cold-weather camping, emergency use
Small Rice Cooker 300–700W 0.7–1.5 hrs Camping, road trips

For example, devices such as laptops, phones, routers, camping lights, fans, cameras, and CPAP machines typically use only a fraction of the Exodus 700's available output. This also leaves additional power headroom for operating several low-power devices at the same time.

Appliances with compressors, motors, or heating elements require more attention. A mini refrigerator, for example, may have relatively low running power but require significantly more power for a short period when its compressor starts.

Before connecting any appliance, always check both its rated operating power and startup or surge power. The total continuous load should remain within the Exodus 700's 700W rated output, while short startup surges should remain within its supported surge range.

*Estimated runtime is calculated using 80% of the Exodus 700's 576Wh battery capacity: 576Wh × 80% = 460.8Wh usable capacity. Estimated Runtime = 460.8Wh ÷ Device Power (W). Actual runtime may vary depending on device efficiency, operating conditions, temperature, and power fluctuations.

13.9 lbs Makes 576Wh of Power Easier to Take Anywhere

No matter how impressive the specifications of a Portable Power Station are, portability loses its meaning if users do not want to move it.

The Exodus 700 weighs about 13.9 lbs (6.3kg) and measures approximately 9.6 × 9.1 × 7.3 in.

This weight is especially suitable for:

  • Placing it in a car trunk for road trips
  • Carrying it from the vehicle to a Camping Site
  • Weekend camping
  • Outdoor photography or content creation
  • Fishing and backyard activities
  • Moving it between different areas of the home

So, the design philosophy of the Exodus 700 is not simply to pursue the largest possible capacity, but rather:

To support a wider range of power needs while remaining practical enough to move and use in real travel scenarios.

OUPES Exodus 700 Portable Power Station

  • 700W Output & 576Wh Capacity: Powers essential gear like camping fridges and CPAP machines.
  • 10+ Year Battery Life: Retains 80% capacity even after 4,000+ charge cycles.
  • 1.3-Hour Fast Recharging: Fully charges quickly via AC + Solar dual input.
  • Ultra-Light 13.9 lbs Design: Grab-and-go size that fits effortlessly into any campsite.

7 Output Ports: One Power Station for Different Types of Devices

The Exodus 700 provides a total of 7 output ports:

Output Port Configuration
AC Outlets 2
USB-C 1 140W Max
USB-C 2 18W Max
USB-A 2 × 18W
Car Outlet 12.8V / 10A

Among them, 140W USB-C is a particularly important usability upgrade.

More laptops, tablets, and professional devices now support USB-C PD.

This means that when charging a MacBook, compatible Windows Laptop, tablet, or other USB-C device, you do not necessarily need to connect an AC charger first and can instead use the 140W USB-C port directly.

For mobile work, photography, and content creation, this can reduce the number of additional chargers you need to carry and makes the Exodus 700 more than just a traditional “camping power station.”

Four Charging Methods: Recharge at Home, on the Road, and Outdoors

The Exodus 700 supports four charging methods: AC, Solar, Car Charging, and AC + Solar.

Charging Method Input Capability Best Suited For
AC Charging 400W Max Home, hotels, campsites with fixed power
Solar Charging 240W Max Camping, Off-grid, long-term outdoor use
AC + Solar Maximum Combined Input Fast charging before departure
Car Charging 12–15V / 8A Max Road Trips and driving

With AC + Solar dual input, the Exodus 700 can be fully recharged in as fast as about 1.3 hours.

When using a 240W Solar Panel, under ideal solar conditions, it can be fully recharged in about 2.6 hours.

This is also why, for users who spend significant time outdoors, a solar panel can fundamentally change the way the Exodus 700 is used.

Why Is a Solar Panel Better Suited for Camping?

If you only use the standalone Exodus 700, the typical power cycle looks like this:

Fully charge at home → Take it outdoors → Use the stored 576Wh → Recharge once you return to a powered environment.

For outdoor activities lasting less than a day, this approach is usually sufficient.

But when a camping trip extends from one day to two, three, or even longer, the situation changes:

The energy stored in the battery will eventually run out.

At this point, the value of a solar panel is not simply that it adds another accessory, but that it introduces a new source of energy.

With a Solar Panel:

Collect solar energy during the day → Store it in the Exodus 700 → Continue powering your devices

The question changes from:

“How much power do I have left?”

to:

“How much power can I recharge today?”

For Weekend Camping, Road Trips, fishing, multi-day photography, and other Off-grid scenarios, this kind of energy cycle is more flexible than simply increasing battery capacity.

How to Choose Between the Exodus 700 Standalone, 100W Bundle, and 240W Bundle?

The Exodus 700 offers three typical configuration options:

Configuration Exodus 700 Standalone Exodus 700 + 100W Solar Panel Exodus 700 + 240W Solar Panel

Both the 100W and 240W Portable Solar Panels use monocrystalline solar cells and ETFE surfaces, deliver conversion efficiency of ≥23%, and offer IP65 protection. The 100W Panel weighs about 12.48 lbs, while the 240W Panel weighs about 18.48 lbs.

Exodus 700 Standalone: Best for Scenarios with Easy Access to Fixed Power

If your main usage pattern is:

Charge at home → Use it → Recharge at home

then the standalone Exodus 700 is already a complete portable power solution.

It is especially suitable for:

  • Home backup
  • One-day outdoor activities
  • Mobile work
  • Backyard activities
  • Occasional camping
  • Short road trips

400W Max AC Charging allows it to recharge quickly when utility power is available, so if you do not have ongoing Off-grid needs, carrying a solar panel is not always necessary.

Exodus 700 + 100W Solar Panel: A Lighter Solar Setup

The 100W Solar Panel features a foldable design, weighs about 12.48 lbs (5.7kg), and measures approximately 21.8 × 23.2 × 1.9 in when folded. It uses an MC4 Connector, monocrystalline solar cells, and an ETFE surface.

It is better suited for users who want solar recharging outdoors while still caring about the weight and size of the panel.

Typical use cases include:

Short Camping trips, photography, fishing, outdoor work, and one- to two-day lightweight use.

The 100W Bundle is more focused on:

Continuously replenishing part of the energy used during the day.

If your everyday devices mainly include phones, computers, cameras, and lighting, this charging approach can effectively extend the overall outdoor runtime of the Exodus 700.

OUPES Exodus 700 Portable Power Station + 100W Solar Panel

  • 700W Output & 576Wh Capacity: Powers essential gear like camping fridges and CPAP machines.
  • 10+ Year Battery Life: Retains 80% capacity even after 4,000+ charge cycles.

Exodus 700 + 240W Solar Panel: A More Complete Solar Generator Setup

If your main reason for purchasing the Exodus 700 is Camping, Road Trips, or Off-grid Power, then the 240W Solar Panel Bundle is the more suitable option.

The reason is simple:

The Exodus 700 itself supports up to 240W Solar Input, and the 240W Panel can make fuller use of that solar charging capability.

Under ideal solar conditions, the Exodus 700 can be fully recharged in about 2.6 hours with 240W Solar Charging.

The 240W Panel weighs about 18.48 lbs (8.4kg) and measures approximately 26.1 × 23.2 × 2.4 in when folded. It also uses monocrystalline solar cells, an ETFE surface, an MC4 connector, and provides ≥23% conversion efficiency and IP65 protection.

Compared with the 100W Panel, it is larger and heavier, but it also provides significantly stronger solar recharging capability.

If you mainly transport it by car, the additional weight will usually not be a major issue.

On two- or three-day Camping trips or longer Off-grid use, the ability to restore the Exodus 700's battery more quickly can have a direct impact on the overall experience.

So, for users who genuinely want to build a cycle of:

Generate power during the day → Store energy → Continue using power

the 240W Bundle is the more complete configuration.

OUPES Exodus 700 Portable Power Station + 100W Solar Panel

  • 700W Output & 576Wh Capacity: Powers essential gear like camping fridges and CPAP machines.

If outdoor use is your primary scenario, a Solar Bundle makes the Exodus 700 a more complete solution.

And between the two solar options:

100W focuses more on lightweight portability and continuous top-ups;

240W focuses more on recharging efficiency and longer-term Off-grid capability.

10ms Instant Backup: Useful Beyond the Outdoors

The Exodus 700 supports 10ms instant backup switching.

When utility power is interrupted, it can quickly switch to battery power, helping reduce the impact of sudden outages on connected devices.

So, the Exodus 700 can be used not only in a car trunk or at a Camping Site, but also for certain home backup needs, such as:

Routers, computers, communication devices, and other equipment that falls within its supported output range.

When paired with a solar panel, it can also recharge from sunlight during extended power outages, further reducing reliance on fixed grid power.

LiFePO4 Battery: Designed for Long-Term, Repeated Use

The Exodus 700 uses a LiFePO4 lithium iron phosphate battery.

After 4000+ charge and discharge cycles, the battery can still retain about 80% of its capacity, making it suitable for long-term, repeated use.

This means the Exodus 700 can take on different roles over time:

  • Weekend camping power
  • Road Trip power
  • Photography and content creation power
  • Mobile work power
  • Home backup power
  • Core storage unit for a Solar Generator

rather than being something you only take out for occasional camping trips.

APP, Backup Rate, and OTA Make Power Management Easier

The Exodus 700 supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and the OUPES APP.

From your phone, you can view in real time:

  • Battery Level
  • Input Power
  • Output Power
  • Temperature
  • Current Operating Status

You can also remotely control AC/DC output.

Adjust Backup Rate allows you to set a backup battery reserve between 25%–85%. When the battery falls below the set threshold, AC power can be prioritized to restore the backup reserve, helping keep energy available in advance for unexpected outages.

In addition, the Exodus 700 supports OTA (Over-the-Air) Firmware Updates, allowing it to receive future feature and system optimizations wirelessly.

These features make the Exodus 700 more than just a device that “stores power.” It becomes a power solution whose status can be monitored and actively managed in real time.

Final Choice: Standalone, 100W, or 240W?

If what you mainly need is:

Home backup, outdoor activities lasting less than a day, or mobile work, the standalone Exodus 700 already provides a complete user experience.

The combination of 576Wh, 700W, 140W USB-C, and 13.9 lbs gives it a strong balance between portability and versatility.

If you want solar recharging while placing more emphasis on Solar Panel weight and portability:

The Exodus 700 + 100W Solar Panel is better suited for lightweight solar use.

And if Camping, Road Trips, and Off-grid use are your main reasons for buying:

The Exodus 700 + 240W Solar Panel provides a more complete Solar Generator configuration.

It can make fuller use of the Exodus 700's 240W Solar Input, turning daytime sunlight into a continuous source of energy during your journey.

The three configurations can be summarized simply as:

Exodus 700 Standalone: Take power with you.

Exodus 700 + 100W Solar Panel: Use power while replenishing it.

Exodus 700 + 240W Solar Panel: Recharge faster and make multi-day Off-grid use easier.
