UGREEN PowerRoam 600 vs Ampace Andes 1500
Side-by-side on the specs that decide it — surge, capacity, runtime and price.
Both models' specs verified against manufacturer listings · Last updated
The short answer
UGREEN PowerRoam 600 costs $600 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- Ampace Andes 1500 holds 115% more energy (1462Wh vs 680Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- Ampace Andes 1500 has 2100W more surge headroom (3600W vs 1500W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 600 is 19.2 lb lighter (17.6 lb vs 36.8 lb).
UGREEN's entry unit punches slightly above its output class thanks to a 1,500W surge, but 600W of continuous power keeps it in device-and-small-appliance territory.
Best for: Campers who want a fast-charging sub-1kWh unit from a mainstream electronics brand.
Where it falls short:
- 600W output rules out heaters and compressors
- 680Wh is weekend-scale
Backed by an Amperex/CATL cell pedigree, the Andes 1500 stands out on charge speed — 0-80% in well under an hour — and a light 36.8 lb for 1.5kWh.
Best for: Buyers who prize fast charging and low weight at 1.5kWh.
Where it falls short:
- Newer brand with a thinner track record
- Not expandable
