San Francisco, California, USA

From campers and vanlifers to home backup and off-grid professionals, Yoshino Technology and fuseproject offers a safe, sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, generators and liquid electrolyte lithium-ion batteries.

While most power devices sold today are technical and masculine, our’s is less a tool than it is a lifestyle product, offering a reliable energy source in a range of contexts: family getaways, outdoor adventures, commercial job sites, emergencies.

The design features a sophisticated matte and muted green and gray tone, hues which intentionally separate Yoshino from the very bright, technical primary color palettes common in the battery and power tool category.

For the above design qualities, the Yoshino Solid-State Portable Power Stations have won a 2024 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.

All elements of our design convey a premium and lifestyle product: the focus on high-quality materials, like the metal handle in contrast to painted finish on competitive products, as well as the bespoke UI design.

This scalable design language is reflected across the entire product suite.

Thanks to solid-state technology, Yoshino power stations are the lightest, most portable, and safest option on the market with a class-leading power-to-weight ratio across all four models: B330, B660, B2000, B4000.
