BP-550 User Manual v1.0 for download

 

Looks like the BP-550 will be available soon!
And they listened to my request to add USB-C for charging, although you'll need a powerful adapter with PD 2.0/3.0 and BC 1.2.
Anyway, I will continue to use my external LiFePO4, which serves me well.

Looks like more vaporware. I get zero response from Lab599 about anything, be it new products, general questions, enhancement requests, you name it.
