What does “battery lifecycles” mean?

Lifecycles refer to how long batteries maintain their rated capacity. When you completely drain a battery from 100% to 0%, you’ve gone through one cycle, and the lifecycle rating for batteries is dependent on its type, or chemistry. Lead-acid batteries are rated for 200-300 lifecycles and lithium batteries for 500-800 cycles. Kaihon Lithium batteries are rated for 500 cycles to 80% capacity. This means after 500 full life cycles from 100%-0% you will still have 80% of the original rated capacity. We expect well over 2000 life cycles on the unit.

What types of batteries does Kaihon use?

We use the following type: Li-NMC for our Kaihon Power Stations. Check the product technical specifications on the product page to view for a particular product.

How long will my power bank or power station hold a full charge if unused?

If unused, power banks and power stations are typically capable of holding a full charge for 12-14 months. However, we highly recommend using and charging the battery every 3-4 months for a healthy lifespan and storing your power bank or power station plugged into the wall or solar panel if possible.

What is the difference between Modified-sine wave inverter and Pure-sine wave inverter?

Modified-sign wave inverters are the most common inverters on the market. They work great with small electronic equipment, usually anything that includes an AC power cable with the box, like what your laptop comes with. Pure-sign wave inverter produces an output that is exactly the same as supplied by an AC wall plug in your house. Although integrating a pure-sine wave inverter takes more components, it produces power output that makes it compatible with almost all AC electric devices you use in your house.

What does the name TriTerra mean?

Terra means to the land all of us are living on, and it is what we care and treasure. Most of our resources we token are from the land, including the conventional energy element – fossil oil, which is limited with boundary. Thus, we need to find ways to save energy, utilize renewable energies, and ultimately extend the lifespan of our eco-system, our land, and our Earth. Back to the origin of our name – TriTerra, Tri is the short-form of triangle which is symbolic icon of Recycling and Green. Therefore, TriTerra means to the Green Land we pursuit and would sustain.

Kaihon Questions

Can I use and charge my Kaihon Power Station at the same time?

Sure.

My TriTerra Kaihon is not responding or is exhibiting odd behavior. What should I do?

Try resetting the unit by holding the “Touch Screen Wake Up Button” for 5 seconds to reset your Kaihon. Check your Kaihon to see if the issue is resolved after the reset.

My new Kaihon does not initially charge to 100%, it only charges to 95% what’s going on?

Cycle the battery a few times and the issue should resolve itself as the Kaihon dials in its charge parameters.

Are there faster ways to recharge my Kaihon?

Sorry for no, but we are offering max. 200W input with our AC/DC adapter and solar panel which is very competitive in the market.

There is a new version of Firmware available and I want to update my Kaihon. How do I do this?

Download the TriTerra app from your favorite app store and follow the instructions there for an update to your Kaihon.

During the update process, my Kaihon is stuck in a loop and keeps trying to update over and over unsuccessfully. How do I fix this?

Try resetting the unit by holding the “Touch Screen Wake Up Button” for 5 seconds to reset your Kaihon. Check your Kaihon to see if the issue is resolved after the reset, then restart the update process. This should fix the issue.

What do the meter icon, the thermometer icon and the DC socket icon mean?

When your Kaihon displays a thermometer icon, this means it is over the temperature threshold of the device, and protection will begin in 3 minutes.

A meter icon means the Kaihon power output is either approaching or has exceeded the power threshold of the device, and protection will begin in 3 minutes.

If a DC socket icon pops up, it means there is some wrong about the power input sources either the AC/DC adapter or the solar panel.

Can I use my 3rd party panels with my Kaihon?

Yes, you can also connect the Kaihon to other brands of solar panels using the MC4 to DC7909 adapter. But it needs to be very careful. The max. power input to Kaihon is 27V, 200W. Do not exceed 27V input into the DC Input port; doing so will cause damage to the unit and potential bodily injury. We would recommend you using our TriTerra Solar Panel.

How do I know if my TriTerra Kaihon is charged?

When charging your TriTerra Kaihon you will notice a battery segment blinking in the display. This indicates the current charge status. Once your TriTerra Kaihon is fully charged, all the battery segments will be lit and remain solid. As long as there is more power going into the TriTerra Kaihon than is being pulled from the output ports, the display will also indicate an estimated time until fully charged.

How long will the Kaihon run my device?

All Kaihon Power Stations have a number in their name, ie. Kaihon1000. These numbers refer to the Watt Hours (Wh), or the amount of energy that can be stored in each battery, and can help estimate how long your gear will run from the power station. For example, a 1000Wh battery should run a 100W light for 10 hours (1000/100=10). When you’re deciding on what to power from the Kaihon Power Station, it’s helpful to look into your device’s wattage consumption.

What does the display do for me?

Your Kaihon is the only Power Station offering touch screen in the market, which gives you an intuitive user experience to interact with the device. The display shows the operation status of the device, and reflects the amount of power in and out, as well as the time to be energy full and time to be energy drawn. In addition, you can control every individual socket on/off by clicking the socket buttons on the touch screen, and turn on/off the scheduler for power charging. You can also connect your mobile device through the interaction with the touch screen. For more details, you may look at the user manual.

Can I take my Kaihon on a plane?

No. Under FAA regulations you are not allowed to take any battery exceeding 100Wh on a plane. For the most up to date information visit FAA Pack Safe.

Can I recharge my Kaihon through the 12V Car Charge port?

No, the TriTerra Kaihon is not compatible with recharging from a 12V source, it can result in damage to the unit, cable, as well as your vehicle.

How do I know if my device will work with the TriTerra Kaihon Power Station?

It would depend on the power rating of your device and the power threshold of Kaihon. For example, the Kaihon1000’s AC port is powered by an inverter that allows for 1000W of power. This means if your device is pulling more than 1000W for an extended period, the Kaihon1000 will give warning and then protection will turn on to shut off the inverter. Another factor to be concerned is the surge rating of your device. The Kaihon inverter is tuned to double its power threshold to catch the surge requirement of various devices instantly, but there will be items that will surge at a higher rate, and for a longer time, than the Kaihon can manage, in which case the inverter will be protected to shut off.
