Exclusive to Portable Power Technology – Introducing the NEW and unique Vehicle Power Hub
Compact, robust design with high energy storage – the hub is designed to deploy power; fast and safely, from both inside a vehicle and outside making it flexible for leisure, commercial and industrial applications – Clean and silent power wherever and whenever you want it
AGM and conventional lead acid batteries limit depth of discharge, heavy and are sensitive to fast charging that quickly reduces life. Our new Power hub allows conventional batteries to be replaced with an all in one system that can deliver as much as 10x the cycle life, fast charging capability, 40% reduction in weight and a smaller profile.
Utilising Lithium battery technology (LiFePO4) the Vehicle Power Hub provides high energy density, higher usable watt hour capacity, fast charging capability and high cycle life – all major advantages especially in a service vehicle where kerb weight and engine run adds to a higher fuel consumption and increased pollution.
The Vehicle Power Hub is a fully integrated solution combining lithium battery, in vehicle DC-DC battery charger, integrated MPPT solar controller, 12VDC and USB outputs in a single portable and movable box. Plug and play input and output anderson connectors make install safe and easy and with supplied cables enable fast connection and removal from the vehicle when required.
A high current anderson output provides simple connection with a 12V-230V power inverter or 12V-230V inverter-charger up to 2000W . Utilising a 250A battery management system (BMS) providing a 250A MAX discharge current capability.
A simple LCD control panel provides battery status and voltage and built in multi safety protection from internal battery management system (BMS), 200A battery isolator, circuit breaker and internal fusing and circuit breaker ensure safe operation at all times.
The Vehicle Power Hub comes complete with fixing kit for install into the vehicle, 40A AC charger (80A option available at extra cost) for fast charging from grid when available, solar cable and other accessory cables.
We offer the Vehicle Power Hub in three variants of watt hour capacities : 1300Wh, 2500Wh and 3800Wh making them an ideal solution for motor homes, camper vans and commercial vehicle conversions.
- Portable, clean and safe Lithium (LiFePO4) battery provides 2500 watt hour of usable capacity – burn less fuel and reduce CO2 emissions when running high loads for long periods
- Flexible charging options from high Power AC charger (40A), integrated 30A DC-DC charger for connection to alternator (inc EU6) and solar input up to 30A utilising the on board MPPT controller
- Plug and play anderson connections provide multiple input/ouput configuration enabling fast and easy deployment

Martha & Mitch –
The application for our vehicle power hub 2500 is absolutely perfect for our van, with it being so compact it enabled us to incorporate into our electrical system seamlessly, allowing us to travel in our van full time across Europe, completely off grid.
With a competitive price in the market, you are able to get so much for what you pay for. The team at Portable Power Technology will go above and beyond for you and even had a FaceTime call with us from Spain when we had a question and wanted some advice. Their customer service is second to none and there really is no other company that cares so much for their customers.
If we ever get any questions about our off grid power set up, we are always first to recommend portable power technology.

Paul Moss –
I’ve finally found the time to review what has been a game changer for me and powering my Overland 4×4 Setup. Almost two-years to the day, I bought the Vehicle Power Hub 2500 as a replacement for the somewhat limited “dual battery” setup under the bonnet.
I had plenty of questions before pulling the trigger on what is a marked investment, but every question was answered with patience – even the silly questions (I had a few!!) – and advice and guidance was given to me to support my then and future needs.
So installed in the “rig” works perfectly; all three methods of charge – DCDC / Solar and mains when necessary work perfectly. Main need is induction hob cooking through an invertor, general charging and always-on Engel Fridge / freezer. The available power from this model, ie useable “amps” is not limited to 50% max as per my old 55amh Yellow top battery means in excess of 10 days off grid use before any concern of having to recharge. Sun / solar aside, a quick run in the car and nearly 30amp replaced in an hour, which is over the safe useable capacity of the old system. With a 200watt solar blanket, the system is self-supporting off-grid for my needs when camping and powers pretty much as everything from laptops, phones, cooking, too many lights camping fairy lights.
I did hit a technical issue during use, but this was sorted without any problems, and the staff at PPtechnolgy were once again outstanding with a genuine desire to help me sort!
I could ‘gush’ more about it, and list all the install details I have around it, but to summarise, it has been a game changer for our overlanding / camping – takes the fear out of being off-grid or having to monitor power to the distraction of fun!
I would highly recommend this product – but also the staff at Portable Power Technology. Good customer service is what has made owning this product a pleasure as much as the product itself and I know as my needs change, evolve, or at some point wear out – I will definitely be back for an upgrade!!!!
