Oscal PowerMax 6000
The Oscal PowerMax 6000, announced in June 2024 and released in July 2024, is an advanced iteration of the PowerMax 3600, designed to meet higher power demands with enhanced capabilities. This new model retains the robust features of its predecessor while introducing several significant upgrades.
Design and Build:
The PowerMax 6000 maintains the same dimensions as the PowerMax 3600, measuring 590 x 350 x 441 mm, but weighs slightly more at 101.41 lbs (46 kg) compared to the previous 96.10 lbs (44.45 kg). Both models feature splash and dust-proof protection, making them suitable for outdoor use and rough conditions.
Battery and Power:
The PowerMax 6000 uses the same LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery technology as the PowerMax 3600, which should translate to long battery life usage and safety. The capacity remains at 3,600Wh, but the total output power has been significantly increased to 6,000W, with a surge power of 9,000W, compared to the 3,600W output and 7,200W surge power of the PowerMax 3600. This substantial increase in power output makes the PowerMax 6000 capable of handling more demanding electrical loads.
Charging and Efficiency:
The new model offers improved charging capabilities. The AC input power has been increased to 2200W from the previous 2000W, and the solar input capacity has been raised to 2400W from 1600W. The car input has also been doubled to 240W. These enhancements result in faster charging times: 1.96 hours for AC, 1.5 hours for solar in prime conditions, and a maximum combined AC and solar charging time of 1.44 hours, compared to the PowerMax 3600’s 2 hours for AC and 2 hours 15 minutes for solar.
Output Options:
The PowerMax 6000 provides a wider range of output options, supporting a total output power of 6,000W through four AC outlets. It includes the same USB and DC outlets as the PowerMax 3600, with 2x PD 100W USB Type-C, 3x PD 18W USB Type-A, and 1x PD 12W USB Type-A ports. The cigarette lighter socket remains the same, offering 120W. Additionally, it has 1x 12V/25A (Anderson 378W outlet) and 2x 12V/3A DC5521 (5.5mm outlet) DC outputs.
Additional Features:
Both models come equipped with industrial wheels and an extendable handle for easy mobility. The PowerMax 6000, however, includes a 5-level LED lamp, an upgrade from the basic LED light on the PowerMax 3600. The management system in both models is powered by the T1 chip, which monitors load, voltage, charging, and temperature for optimal performance and safety.
Certifications and Warranty:
The PowerMax 6000 holds certifications from Europe (CE/RED/ROHS), America (FCC/DOE/CEC/FCC/UL), and South Africa (IEC62368), for better compliance with international safety and performance standards. Like its predecessor, it comes with a 4-year warranty. The table below contains the full specifications of Oscal PowerMax 6000 Power Station.
