Description

The Dakota Lithium Powerbox+ 60 is an IP67 waterproof portable power station with a built-in DL+ 12V 60Ah battery, 300W inverter, USB-C/A ports, and automotive binder posts—all in a military-spec case that floats. At 720Wh and 27 lbs, it delivers camp power, jump-starts vehicles with 1,000 CCA, charges from solar, and survives submersion. No other power station on the market combines LiFePO4 longevity, waterproof rating, buoyancy, and an 11-year warranty.

Applications

  • Camping & overlanding — waterproof, portable, powers lights, phones, and small appliances at the campsite
  • CPAP machine power — 720Wh runs most CPAP machines for 3-5 nights depending on pressure settings
  • Starlink internet — power Starlink off-grid for 6-8 hours on a single charge while boondocking
  • Emergency backup — jump-start your vehicle, power essentials during outages, charge devices for days
  • Kayak & boat electronics — binder posts run trolling motors, IP67 survives splashes and rain
  • Tailgating & outdoor events — AC outlets power speakers, TVs, blenders without a noisy generator
  • Vehicle jump-starting — 1,000 CCA with included jumper cables starts trucks, SUVs, and boats
Features & Benefits
  • IP67 waterproof & buoyant — fully submersible to 3 ft for 30 minutes and floats with 46% mass above waterline. Rain, splashes, capsized canoe—your power stays dry and recoverable.
  • DL+ 12V 60Ah battery (720Wh) — LiFePO4 chemistry with Even-Heat Technology for cold-weather charging down to sub-zero temperatures.
  • 1,000 CCA engine starting — jump-start trucks, boats, and ATVs with the included jumper cables via automotive binder posts.
  • 300W AC inverter (600W peak) — two AC outlets power laptops, CPAP machines, Starlink, and small appliances. 600W surge handles motor startup loads.
  • USB-C & USB-A ports — waterproof charging ports for phones, tablets, and cameras without opening the case.
  • Waterproof voltmeter — real-time battery state-of-charge visible through the sealed case window.
  • Internal dry storage — ballistic nylon bag with 3 zippered pockets and anti-static silicone electronics tray keeps gear organized and protected.
  • Field maintainable — designed for easy disassembly and repair in remote locations. No proprietary tools required.

Warranty Details

Backed by Dakota Lithium's industry-leading 11-year manufacturer warranty—the longest in the portable power station market. The DL+ battery inside uses LiFePO4 chemistry rated for 5,000+ cycles, meaning this unit is built to last a decade of daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this compare to Jackery and EcoFlow?

The Powerbox+ 60 uses LiFePO4 chemistry (5,000+ cycle lifespan) vs the NMC chemistry in most Jackery/EcoFlow units (800-1,000 cycles). It's IP67 waterproof and floats—no competing power station offers that. And the 11-year warranty is 5-8x longer than the typical 2-year warranty from Jackery or EcoFlow. The trade-off: it's heavier per Wh and has fewer AC outlets.

Can I charge this with solar panels?

Yes. Connect compatible 12V solar panels to the battery's charge input. For a full daily recharge, pair with a 100-200W portable panel. The DL+ battery's Even-Heat Technology means solar charging works even in cold weather.

How long will it run a CPAP machine?

At typical CPAP draw (30-60W depending on pressure and humidifier settings), the 720Wh battery provides 12-24 hours of continuous runtime through the AC inverter. Without the humidifier (20-30W), expect 3-5 nights before recharging.

Is it truly waterproof or just water-resistant?

IP67 means fully submersible to 3 feet for 30 minutes—not just splash-resistant. The case is sealed with waterproof ports and a military-spec gasket. It also floats with 46% of its mass above the waterline, so it won't sink if it goes overboard. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure.

Can I replace the battery later?

Yes. The Powerbox+ 60 is field-maintainable with a shockproof battery cradle designed for easy access. You can swap the DL+ 60Ah battery without special tools. This also means you can carry a spare charged battery for extended trips.
