The Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 14,500, brand new and sealed, in Black and Green. Choetech lists it under the model code SG200DC. It stores 192Wh in a LiFePO4 battery, delivers up to 200W through USB-C, USB-A, DC and car-socket outputs, and refills from a 100W USB-C PD charger, an AC adapter, a car socket or a solar panel. Mascom International sells it from our walk-in store on the first floor of Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, where you can check the ports and the battery display before paying.
Built for university students, NGO field staff, M-Pesa agents and families across Kenya, the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station covers the small loads that matter most when KPLC power drops. The problem is familiar: the estate goes dark, the router dies, and every phone is on 15%. This unit keeps the Wi-Fi, phones, LED lights and USB-C gadgets going until supply returns. As plain arithmetic, 192Wh divided by a 10W router comes to about 19 hours, though conversion losses make real runtime shorter. Its built-in light, with four modes, also replaces a torch on camping trips and at night markets.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded power banks with inflated capacity labels, Mascom International stocks Choetech units whose capacity is printed on the manufacturer's own spec sheet. The Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station uses lithium iron phosphate cells rated for 2,000+ charge cycles, the same chemistry found in larger home backup systems. Customers across Nairobi tell us the first things they want after a blackout are a working router and a charged phone, and the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station handles both without fuel or noise.

Common Questions About the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station
How much is the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station in Kenya?
The Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station costs KSh 14,500 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the unit, a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects, and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. If you need a wall-style AC socket for a TV or desktop, the Choetech Dash Plus 400W Portable UPS Power Station costs KSh 31,500, which is KSh 17,000 more. Foldable solar panels are sold separately, starting at KSh 8,000 for the 22W panel.
Can the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station run a TV or a fridge?
No, the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station has no AC socket, so it cannot run a TV, fridge or desktop computer with a wall plug. It powers devices through USB-C, USB-A, a DC barrel port and a car socket, up to 200W in total. That covers phones, tablets, LED bulbs, USB fans and routers fed by a DC cable. For a TV, decoder or desktop, the Choetech Dash Plus 400W Portable UPS Power Station adds a pure sine wave AC outlet.
How does the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station compare with the Choetech Dash Plus 400W?
The Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station is the lighter, cheaper pick for USB and DC loads, while the Dash Plus 400W adds AC power and UPS switching. The SG200 holds 192Wh and outputs 200W for KSh 14,500. The Dash Plus 400W holds 256Wh, delivers 400W of pure sine wave AC, and costs KSh 31,500. Choose the SG200 for phones, routers and lights. Choose the Dash Plus 400W if a TV, printer or desktop must stay on during an outage.
How long will the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station last during a KPLC power cut?
Runtime depends on what you plug in, but 192Wh carries a household's basics through a typical evening outage. As rough arithmetic, a 10W router runs about 19 hours and a 5W LED bulb about 38 hours, before conversion losses that shorten real figures. Keeping phones charged for Safaricom calls and M-Pesa payments barely dents it. For outages that stretch over days, pair it with a foldable solar panel from Mascom International and refill it in daylight.
How do you charge the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station?
You can charge the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station four ways: an AC adapter from the wall, a 100W USB-C PD charger, a car socket, or a solar panel. The USB-C route is handy because a laptop-style PD charger you already own can refill it. Car charging suits sales teams who spend long hours driving between towns. Choetech does not publish charge times for this model, so plan around the source: a 100W charger refills it far sooner than a small panel.
Is the LiFePO4 battery in the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station better than a normal power bank?
For repeated daily use, yes: the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station uses LiFePO4 cells rated by Choetech for 2,000+ charge cycles. LiFePO4 stands for lithium iron phosphate, a chemistry known for stable temperatures and long service life. Most pocket power banks use standard lithium-ion cells, which suit slim designs but wear out sooner under heavy cycling. If you will drain and refill this box every week through outage season, the cycle rating matters more than a slim shape.
Is the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station good for camping and outdoor events?
Yes, the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station suits camping, outdoor events and market stalls where no socket exists. Its built-in light offers four modes, so it doubles as a lamp, and several people can charge phones from it at once. Choetech describes it as about 15% smaller than similar models, so it sits easily in a car boot beside tents and cool boxes. Add the 40W foldable panel at KSh 8,500 to stretch a weekend trip with free daytime charging.
Who should buy the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station and who should skip it?
Buy the Choetech SG200 Portable DC Power Station if you need phones, a router, lights and USB-C gear running through outages, or a compact power source for travel. Kiosk owners keeping a phone and lamp alive will find it fits both the job and the budget. Skip it if you must run anything with a wall plug, such as a TV, printer, desktop or fridge. Those buyers should choose the Dash Plus 400W at KSh 31,500 or the Dash 2 800W at KSh 57,500.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- DC portable power station from Choetech, model code SG200DC — a rechargeable battery box for USB and 12V devices at home or away.
- Up to 200W total output — enough to run several phones, a router and LED lights at the same time.
- No AC wall socket on this model — appliances with a three-pin plug need an AC unit such as the Dash Plus 400W.
- Built-in light with four lighting modes — works as a room lamp or tent light when the electricity goes off.
- Real-time battery display — shows remaining charge at a glance, so you know when to refill before the next outage.
Battery and Capacity
- 192Wh total capacity — watt-hours measure stored energy; 192Wh means 19 watts for about ten hours, before conversion losses.
- LiFePO4 cells — lithium iron phosphate, a stable chemistry that runs cooler and lasts longer than typical power bank cells.
- Rated for 2,000+ charge cycles — over five years of daily drain and refill within the manufacturer's rating.
- Sized for light daily loads — phones, routers and lights rather than kettles, irons or other heating appliances.
- Larger LiFePO4 options exist in this range — the 512Wh Dash 2 800W suits households that need far more stored energy.
Outputs and Ports
- USB-C PD output — Power Delivery fast charging for recent phones, tablets and USB-C accessories that support the standard.
- Second USB-C output — another modern device charges alongside the first without hunting for an adapter.
- USB-A output — older phones, earphones, USB fans and reading lights plug in with the cables you already own.
- DC barrel output — feeds 12V gear such as routers and small fans through a matching DC cable.
- Car socket output — runs devices made for a vehicle's 12V socket, such as car chargers and travel fans.
Charging Inputs
- 100W USB-C PD input — refill it from a laptop-style USB-C charger, one fewer special adapter to carry around.
- AC adapter charging — plug into a wall socket at home or in the office while mains supply is on.
- Car charging — top it up from the vehicle's socket while you drive between appointments or campsites.
- Solar charging — connect a foldable panel and refill it in daylight with no fuel cost at all.
- Charge times not published by Choetech — a 100W wall or USB-C source refills it far sooner than a small panel.
Build and Portability
- Compact body that Choetech describes as about 15% smaller than similar models — easy to store on a shelf or under a bed.
- Hand-carry size — moves from bedroom to living room to car boot without needing a trolley or a second person.
- No fuel, fumes or engine — safe for indoor use during blackouts, unlike a petrol generator outside the window.
- Black and Green colour options — confirm the colour in stock on WhatsApp before you order.
- Choetech brand — a charging specialist with a full line of power stations and foldable solar panels in this batch.
