No USB-C and only one a/c outlet. I have the GoLabs r300 and it has 2 usb-a ports, 30w pd, 60w pd, and two a/c outlets. Plus it charges at 60w. This doesn't seem very slick.
It sounds like you are too stationary for this product
Different use cases for everyone but power stations like Jackery, Goal Zero, Delta are for my emergency preparedness kit versus daily usage

It feels good initially to get power from the sun until you realize how much effort it takes to keep charging and go indoors/outdoors to keep getting electricity. Eventually, you give up and go back to paying ~$0.15/kWH. I've had MPPT charge controllers, lead acid batteries, etc. That's my story.

The 300 has better output choices than the 500 including 2AC

In the future you might want to say " x product for x price AC"
AC stands for "after coupon"

Don't know enough about the product to really comment but it seems to get a lot of love on Amazon. As others indicated the USB ports use older charging technology and it would be nicer if it had more AC options.

Yup. Run fridge if power goes out for a few days... especially if you have solar.

I have a feeling you used 12v marine deep cycle batteries? 6v golf cart deep cycle batteries FTW!
