• Q7: How cold can the Pioneer Na handle?
  A:

  The Pioneer Na works in temperatures as low as −25°C (−13°F) for discharging and can safely charge at −15°C (5°F), maintaining stable performance without unexpected shutdowns.

• Q8: Will the cold affect its power output?
  A:

  No, at −25°C (−13°F), the Pioneer Na still provides 80% of its battery capacity, powering devices up to 1,500W (its maximum output). Below −10°C (14°F), it can recharge up to 60% SoC.

• Q9: Can it function as an emergency UPS?
  A:

  Yes. With UPS functionality, it switches to battery in 20 ms, keeping routers, laptops, lights, heating pads, and phones running during outages.

• Q10: Is it safe to use this sodium-ion power station?
  A:

  Absolutely. Pioneer Na uses advanced sodium-ion batteries with enhanced thermal stability, reducing the risk of overheating or fire. It also features comprehensive safety measures, including AI-BMS, voltage balancing, overcharge protection, overcurrent protection, temperature monitoring, and short-circuit safeguards.

• Q11: Does this power station have active cooling or temperature protection?
  A:

  Yes, Pioneer Na has intelligent fan cooling that adjusts based on the load. While it doesn't have a heating module, the sodium-ion battery is built for stable performance in low temperatures, so no additional insulation is needed.

• Q12: What ports does it offer?
  A:

  Pioneer Na offers a wide range of ports for all your power needs:
  ● 2 × AC outlets
  ● 4 × USB-A (2 × 15 W combined output)
  ● 1 × 100 W USB-C
  ● 1 × 12 V/10 A Cigarette lighter port
  ● 1 × 15 W Wireless charging pad

• Q13: Can I plug in multiple devices at once?
  A:

  Yes. Pioneer Na intelligently distributes power across all active outlets, ensuring efficient and balanced charging or usage. You can even charge the power station while using it to power other devices.

• Q14: How fast does the Pioneer Na charge?
  A:

  ● AC: 1,400 W Max., 80% in 45 min, 100% in 65 min
  ● Solar: 500 W Max., full charge in 2.3 hrs
  ● Car: 11.4 hrs @ 12 V; 5.1 hrs @ 24 V
  ● Charger 1: 500 W Max., 1.9 hrs
  ● AC + Solar: 1,900 W Max., 80% in 35 min, 100% in 52 min
  ● Generator: depends on generator output
  ● B80 (Power Bank mode): 200 W Max., 7 hrs

• Q15: Can it charge via solar panels?
  A:

  Yes. Pioneer Na supports up to 500 W via MC4 connectors, just like lithium solar generators.

• Q16: Does it support pass-through (simultaneous charge and discharge)?
  A:

  Yes. Maximum pass-through power is 2.300 W.

• Q17: Does it support external battery packs?
  A:

  No

• Q18: Is it compatible with Charger 1?
  A:

  Yes, the Pioneer Na works seamlessly with Charger 1 for fast charging on the go.

• Q19: How to calculate the runtime?
  A:

  Use this quick formula (for ambient temps above 10 °C / 50 °F): Runtime = (900 Wh × DoD × inverter efficiency) ÷ (device power + Pioneer Na's self-consumption) Here, DoD = 0.95, inverter efficiency = 0.90, and Pioneer Na's self-consumption is about XX W.

• Q20: Does it support app control?
  A:

  Yes. You can monitor and control the Pioneer Na via Bluetooth from up to 5 m away.

• Q21: What's the noise level?
  A:

  In silent mode at 180 W, fan noise is only 40 dB, making it suitable for tents, cars, or quiet outdoor settings.

• Q22: Is it easy to carry around?
  A:

  Yes. The side handles are ergonomically designed for a comfortable grip without straining your hands. The square, compact build makes it easy to move and store without taking up extra space.

• Q23: How long will the battery last? Is it the same as lithium batteries?
  A:

• Q24: Will using the Pioneer Na in cold weather affect battery life?
  A:

  No. Unlike lithium batteries, which can struggle or fail in the cold due to thickened electrolytes and reduced activity, sodium-ion batteries remain chemically stable, allowing safe charging at −15°C (5°F) and reliable discharge at −25°C (−13°F) without affecting battery life.

• Q25: Why are sodium-ion batteries more eco-friendly?
  A:

  Sodium-ion batteries use abundant materials without rare cobalt or lithium, and manufacturing produces lower carbon emissions.

• Q26: Is the Pioneer Na certified?
  A:

  Yes, the Pioneer Na meets major international safety and quality standards, including CE, FCC, RoHS, and UN38.3.
