Cellink Neo21+ availability

[TheSpanishInq]

Has anyone seen this battery pack for sale anywhere? Preferably on a Dutch site, but an English site will do. 😛
It is available here but my understanding of the Korean language is lacking. I'd hoped Power Core would have announced their new high capacity battery, but no response there, which make them seem a bit unreliable.

Cellink Neo21+ – Egen Inc.

Hours of use	About 65hours (Based on 2-CH dashcam within 4Wh)

Product capacity	12.8V / 20,400mA / 261.12Wh

Wow 261.12Wh, I want.

Powercore are very strange. Great product but suspiciously silent.

261.12Wh

261Wh sounds amazingly huge for a dedicated dash cam battery pack.
Based on the current EGEN battery pack charge times for the 96Wh models (1Hr 10 Min @ 10AMPS).
This chunky boi will take over 3 hours of driving to fully charge.
If you can do with a 153Wh capacity I would take a look at the IROAD POWER Pack Pro 12;

Thanks, I somehow expected you to react 😉
In my mind I'd dismissed the iRoad, only I forgot to mention that in my notes, so I'll have to check again...

Our next car will be a PHEV, which we plan to charge at 220V and about 8A, so most of the revenue of our 3220Wp solar panels can flow into the car, without drawing too much extra power from the mains. This means the charge time will be longer but the idea is that, while the cars EV battery is charging, the cams battery gets charged too. At least, that's the theory.
In other words, charging time for the cam battery pack probably won't be an issue.

These dash cam battery packs are “traditionally” designed (wired up) to only charge when the vehicle is KOER (key on engine running).
However, you may be able to custom configure the wiring so it will charge BOTH KOER, and parked in the garage charging off your panels.
@Vortex Radar was working on this issue with his new EV.
Maybe he will stop by with options for a solution.

Thanks for the tip, the solution probably depends on how the car vendor solves this/which wires are powered in both cases. I don't feel confident installing the cam in the new car myself, afraid I'd break something. The installation is done by a car electronics specialist (stereo/alarm/dash cams/...), recommended by our car dealer. If the electronics specialist has questions about the wiring, they can contact the dealer directly. And the dealer told me it shouldn't be a problem (famous last words 🙂 ).

Edit: Typos: 'told be it should' replaced by 'told me it shouldn't'.

Availability seems to be the biggest problem for the iROAD battery, can't seem to buy it in this part of the world. Only shipping from Korea...

Thanks for the links, I'd found them. But like I said, there doesn't seem to be a vendor in Europe that ships iROAD products to the Netherlands.

Makes me reconsider the Power-Core 6200LFP Plus + Extender 13400LFP, which gives 250.86Wh. That's 97Wh more than the iROAD Power Pro 12 at an estimated €30,- extra cost.

iROAD = $349 + $49 shipping. Estimated 20% import tax: $398 * 1.2 = $477.60 = €443.17
PowerCore = £219.00 + £189.00 = £408.00. Free shipping and tax/duty free = €474.22

[TheSpanishInq]

Don't need to yell 😳 🙂

Anyway, we'll get the keys of the car Friday 24., so I ordered the Power Core 6200LFP Plus + Extender.

 

[mentadent]

I got a reply and Cellink Neo21+ is 'not sold overseas and not shipped directly to an individual customer.'

 

[mentadent]

Ugh I still want this, come on Cellink I'll pay shipping.

Does anyone know if its possible to get a cellink ext13, or ext21 in Aus? or if its likely to come into any international markets anytime soon? i.e. is it a new product that just hasnt hit other markets yet and I should wait off, or is it just not coming here. looking for a high mAh dashcam battery, highest ive found so far is the powerpack pro 12,000 mAh. Thanks

Did you ever get any further on this..?
I’ve been searching around ahead of choosing a battery option and was recently told by one of the main resellers that the AU distributor will no longer be bringing the Cellink expansion batteries into the country…Seems a strange decision, but like others have said to me, it may be that there just isn’t a huge demand…I don’t understand why, as easily hooking up expansion units for increased capacity situations seems appealing to me…..
I was leaning towards the Cellink Neo due to its expansion functionality with multiple units (though I would have preferred it had a 3-wire power input on the primary battery), but the expansion pack situation puts me off…..

Which leaves the iRoad Pro12 really, for its large onboard capacity….
Unfortunately it can’t be extended yet further (though an earlier version of the Pro12 you could, but they removed the socket for USB-A output 🤷‍♂️) ….

After that, you’re looking at a parallel battery setup of dual batteries for increased capacity, though typically not manufacturer ‘supported’….Im sort of mulling the idea of this with the Pro12 – great 24,000mA capacity, though two relatively large battery units to home….

I contacted Celink a while ago and they flat out won't sell to individuals overseas. I would have liked one of their giant batteries.
