CARKU’s 400W PB‑113 Portable Power Station Takes Home the 2026 Global Sources Innovation Award

Hong Kong, 11 Oct 2026 – While the buzz of the Global Sources Consumer Electronics Show swirled through the AsiaWorld‑Expo, CARKU stole a moment of the spotlight. At Booth 5J24 in the East Hall, the company rolled out its newest portable power station, the 400W PB‑113, and walked away with the coveted 2026 Global Sources Innovation Award.

That’s not just a shiny trophy. It’s a nod to a device that tries to do a lot—run a laptop, charge a phone, power a mini‑fridge, and even jump‑start a dead car battery—all from a single, 5 kg box. The PB‑113 cranks out a steady 400 W of AC power, enough for most everyday gadgets you’d need on a weekend camping trip or during a power outage.

What makes it feel less like a gadget and more like a reliable sidekick is the heart of the unit: premium LiFePO4 cells. CARKU says those cells can handle over 3,000 charge cycles, which translates to years of use without the dreaded capacity fade you see in cheaper lithium‑ion packs. Add a 10‑stage safety system and smart jumper clamps that let you start a car with a single button, and you’ve got a device that’s as safe as it is versatile.

Beyond the specs, CARKU’s win reflects a growing market need across the Asia‑Pacific. From typhoon‑prone coastlines to remote trekking routes, users are hunting for compact, rugged power that can double as an emergency jump‑starter. The company is already pushing the PB‑113 through compliance hoops, boasting a fresh PSE certification for Japan and a suite of CE, FCC, RoHS and UL approvals.

Backed by more than 850 patents and a long‑standing reputation for OEM/ODM solutions, CARKU says the award validates its strategy: marry automotive‑grade safety with portable energy storage. The PB‑113 joins a broader lineup ranging from 100 W to 3,600 W units, all built on the same proprietary Battery Management System (BMS) platform.

For anyone scouting a dependable power source for outdoor adventures, roadside emergencies, or even a small off‑grid cabin, the PB‑113 now carries the seal of an industry‑wide innovation award.
