I hate the term "generator" with these things. It's a battery. It's not "generating" anything and will need to be recharged itself. It's a glorified UPS.
"This item is non-returnable, but if the item arrives damaged or defective, you may request a refund or replacement. Read full return policy [amazon.com]."
Yeah the fact that they call these generators at all is pretty deceptive in my opinion. They could be useful for a few extra hours of power for a computer, charging phones, or running a CPAP while camping for a night, but they don't have enough storage capacity to be really useful in an outage.

Well, no. "A few extra hours…" is actually several days for phones and computers. It ultimately depends on the use. If you use it for what it is, a giant battery, you're good for a week of camping/emergency use. A family of four will have full-charged phones and family laptop for a 3-day weekend, with something to spare. It's the "small appliances" where it's less useful.

The "generator" reference is to solar. Of course you need to purchase a solar panel *in addition.* So while they're using the term correctly, it's still misleading insofar as the name implies built-in solar capability.

It's a battery the solar panel charges.

You don't need a solar panel for this unit, it will also charge from an USB connection or Wall Charger.

I need to power a fan, laptop, 2 led lights, a flourescent workstation light and a postal scale.
I am working in my storage unit, and using the visible ac outlet would attract more attention than I would like. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, but there is an HOA so.....
The fan and fluorescent are always on. The rest is intermittent. I rarely expect to run it more than 3-4 hours at a time.
Would this work for me? Is there a better or cheaper option recommended?

2x of Anker PowerHouse II 400 388Wh or EcoFlow RIVER Pro 720Wh from Costco?
Price per Wh is cheaper for EcoFlow - $0.59 vs $0.61 but what about quality in your opinion?

Quote from ghostofdavid :
Can someone recommend an indoor safe generator:battery station like this to use for my CPAP for up to four or five nights? I have a Dreamstation 2 with heated humidifier. I've tried understanding what some on forums are saying to no avail.

I'd preferably like to find one that can charge via solar but I have no idea what I'm doing. Gonna grab a separate duel fuel for the rest of the house but wanted something like this just for CPAP and maybe cell phone.

I don't have battery advice, but when I was researching for our cpaps one site suggested operating them with the humidifier off to conserve power.
I bought generic resmed adapters so I could connect directly to 12 volt, which is more efficient.

Right. I was just noting that the "generator" part refers to a solar panel, not the unit itself.

The Ecoflow not only has higher capacity and cheaper per Watt, it has higher peak current output that it can run many home appliances such as a full size refrigerator for hours. I got an inverter generator that kept our fridge and freezer running during a 4 day black out 6 weeks ago. We are expecting blackout in the winter once a few years due to the snow on trees/wires. So I got the EcoFlow Pro + extra battery from Costco (1440Wh for $650 after coupon) when I cannot use the inverter generator when it is too cold or at night. This Anker one cannot do the job except for low power electronics.

It's not deceptive at all. Gas generators take gasoline and convert the energy into electricity.

Solar Generators take the energy from the sun when hooked up to a solar panel and convert it to electricity.

They both generate energy, but in different ways.
Gasoline is also power from the sun. It's just a lot older.

Funny how people are saying this Anker is not good for tornados and hurricanes. LOL!

This is a backup for glampers and their iPhones and MacBooks! Couple it with the glam camping tent in the other link.
