Short-distance travel, self-driving travel, and camping have recently shown a hot trend, and the outdoor power supply market has also been "fired".
During the "618" e-commerce event, the turnover of outdoor mobile power supplies on an e-commerce platform increased by more than 10 times year-on-year.
In fact, the mobile power supply that can supply power to mobile phones, computers, rice cookers and other electrical appliances outdoors can not only solve the rigid demand for outdoor electricity, but also solve consumers' "electricity anxiety" in the suburbs or in the wild. , audio and other entertainment facilities.
In addition to being used for short-distance travel, outdoor power supplies are also used for night fishing, night market stalls, outdoor live broadcasts, outdoor night work, etc., and its features such as large battery capacity, rich interfaces, portability, and ease of use can meet the needs of most electrical appliances on the market. Therefore, it is favored by a large number of consumers.
According to data from an e-commerce platform, during the period from May 23 to June 18, when the "618" promotion was launched this year, the turnover of outdoor mobile power supplies increased by more than 10 times year-on-year.
At present, the battery types of outdoor mobile power supplies on the market mainly include lithium batteries, lithium ion batteries, and lithium polymer batteries. The battery capacity ranges from 5,000 mAh to 200,000 mAh.
There are more than 100 brands of outdoor power supplies ranging from portable to professional, and the price range is between a few hundred yuan and tens of thousands of yuan.
With the hot sale of outdoor mobile power products, many companies have "entered" the outdoor power supply market, so the first-line production capacity has expanded rapidly.
According to data, there are currently more than 20,000 mobile power-related enterprises in my country, and 53.7% of them have been established in the past five years. From 2019 to 2021, the average growth rate of newly registered mobile power supply enterprises is 16.3%.
Xu Jiqiang, chairman of the Zhongguancun Energy Storage Industry Technology Alliance, said that my country's outdoor mobile power supply currently accounts for more than 90% of the world's shipments. about 100 million yuan.
As an explosive growth product category, what is the safety performance of outdoor power supply?
It is reported that outdoor power supplies generally use lithium-ion battery packs or lithium iron phosphate battery packs as energy storage devices, and convert the DC power of the battery pack into AC power output through an inverter circuit to meet the electricity demand of various electrical equipment.
At the same time, the storage power of outdoor power bank is much larger than that of ordinary power bank, so the safety cannot be ignored.
In this regard, some experts said that the safety of outdoor mobile power is closely related to the quality of the battery cells used in the product itself, the design of safety and reliability, and especially to the usage.
In the process of use, there are also many situations that need to be paid attention to.
For example, do not use electrical appliances that exceed the maximum power written on the product manual to prevent short circuits; pay special attention to the wear and tear of power cords, and replace them in time when they are worn and aged to avoid explosions and fires caused by short circuits; try to use and move as much as possible. Avoid violent vibration, do not encounter water and rain, keep away from flammable substances, etc.
In addition, the manufacturer's qualifications and production standards are also important reference factors.
As many companies flooded into the hot track of outdoor power supply, large companies such as the global power battery leader CATL and the socket industry brand Bull have also joined.
For example, the "Pastoral Times" outdoor power supply is manufactured by Times Nebula, a joint-stock company of CATL. Achieve performance exceeding ternary lithium: under the condition of approved power of 3000 watts and capacity of 2.35 kWh, it also has 1.5 hours of fast charging.
