Should you buy it?

Buy it for: a night of CPAP (a CPAP with its humidifier for one 8-hour night); a day in an RV (a 12 V fridge, lights, TV, coffee maker, phones and a laptop for a day); a laptop and two phones (a laptop for six hours and two phone charges).

Not for: a day of home backup (too little capacity: needs 2,323 Wh and 1,351 W at start-up); two nights of camping (too little capacity: needs 2,066 Wh and 157 W at start-up); a working day in a van (too little capacity: needs 2,295 Wh and 244 W at start-up).

At $0.63 per watt-hour compare its cost with the charging speed and carry weight you need. It stores 42.2 Wh per pound. 18 other current units share its size class; the nearest four by capacity are compared below.

Before using the battery's cycle rating to judge value, read what LiFePO4 versus NMC means for lifespan and weight.

The solar-input wattage alone does not establish panel compatibility. Check how to match panel watts, voltage and connectors, then confirm the limits in this unit's manual.
