Lithium-ion-based power stations and powerbanks might be a reliable addition for when you are traveling to places where there is no nearby power source, but they have one major disadvantage that takes away their advantage; failing to function under cold temperatures. This is where BLUETTI takes a step forward with its Pioneer Na, which the company says is the world’s first sodium-ion power station designed to keep on working in the unyielding cold. Where everything else fails, the Pioneer Na is expected to keep pushing through, and it is no slouch in the power department, as it can deliver up to an impressive 1,500W of continuous wattage for a truckload of devices.
The Pioneer Na can continue discharging at temperatures of -25 °C, with BLUETTI stating that a ‘Power Lifting Mode’ temporarily raises the 1,500W wattage limitation to an impressive 2,250W
The massive 900WHr unit will be most helpful in the coldest regions, where travelers embark on dangerous expeditions, and there is zero access to electricity. BLUETTI states that the Pioneer Na can charge from 0 to 80 percent in 35 minutes when both AC and solar inputs are used. Best of all, the power station can charge at temperatures of -15 °C and discharge at -25 °C, making it a versatile companion for the most unforgiving of environments.
With up to 1,500W of continuous power, there is likely no appliance or device available that the Pioneer Na cannot juice up or charge, but BLUETTI has an ace up its sleeve. The company says that there is a ‘Power Lifting Mode,’ which increases the total power wattage to 2,250W for brief periods, but there is no word on how long that duration will be, nor the battery degradation rate at this wattage level.
Moreover, BLUETTI says that the Pioneer Na will not be suited for consumers who live indoors, as it is engineered to tackle the extreme cold. As for the launch, the Pioneer Na is scheduled to release on October 15, and we will have pricing details for you at that time.
