tempted to get another pV200 solar panel. Never seen it this cheap. Retails for 500. rarely goes on sale. Panel is wired In parallel instead of in series means if half the panels are in shade you still get productivity from the other panels. I did pick up A renewed EB 70S.. I'll post back here which variant I get. 700 or 800. My regular EB 700 I bought a couple years ago didn't have quite enough juice for my big kitchen fridge. I'm hoping I get a 800 W variant eb70s and it's strong enough to power my fridge. I also have x2 100 W solar panels I plan to hook up in series to my EB 70S. Hopefully they don't overload it like they did when I tried doing this to my bluetti EB 3A. I know my combination of these x2 100W panels work together because they produce 200 W together in series when hooked up to my larger Delta power station

I'm similarly bummed but it means there are 2 versions. One supports 700w max and the other supports 800w max. I believe they both have the same 1400w surge rating. Watts is the amount of power it will send to any one plug or a combination. It determines what you are able to plug into this. For example a 1500w hair dryer would be a no go, a 1100w microwave would be a no go. A 600w portable heater would work. 7x 100w light bulbs, etc. I wasn't sure what level your understanding of watts was but I included it just in case it helps you or someone else.

Very good deal! I'm kind of bummed about the refurbished EB70S sending you a random color instead of letting you pick. I also don't know what it means by "700W/800W 2 versions are sent randomly" but that worries me a bit. Can anyone with experience in these explain it to me?

It looks like they are clearing all these so they can launch the new bigger version of EB3A.

Prior post (now deleted) commented on using fuel.

This isn't that much power in terms of a backup system compared to spending $5 for a gallon of gas and getting 5000 kW/h from a generator.

But the inverter portion does look nice if you are able to hook it up inline with a device like a refrigerator to clean up some bad THD supplied from a dirty power source.

Could it run a small wifi router and lamp? Sure. Your TV and computer in the advent of an outage? Not for long.

Probably give you 2-3 miles of extra range if you were to try and charge a Tesla.

I don't know what you're talking about but the EB3A doesn't have any power brick. It's all built in.

Also EB3A is far superior than River 2. Looks like you bought the inferior one just because it's ~2 lbs lighter. I don't think 2 lbs makes that much difference considering that EB3A is simply on another level.

I imagine LiFePO6 is an unstable molecule whose Os are ready to bond with any available element

The weight difference is due to battery technology these. lipo 4 batteries are heavy but can be charged x4 times as as the lithium Type of battery river uses

Is this a good deal for $223 before tax for a 200 W solar panel with coupon?

There is the vanadium redox flow battery currently in its infancy that's supposed to last 20-30 years with no degradation. This current push to spend tons of money and resources on lithium batteries that last 5-10 years is... flawed.

What you stated is not true and currently applies to huge installations. It uses huge amounts of acid flowing from vats. Not at all portable

Yeah no idea why they deleted a link to another deal here on slickdeals
https://slickdeals.net/f/16136419-westinghouse-2200-watt-super-quiet-lightweight-portable-inverter-generator-gas-powered-co-sensor-parallel-capable-long-run-time-351-14?v=1&src=SiteSearch
is still a better deal than these but they both have their uses
