when ppl mention bugs, they probably mean things like this that i noticed:
* it does not charge via solar and wall at the same time - you have to turn the wall power off before it'll draw from solar input
* it occasionally confuses solar input with car cig lighter input - they are the same connection
* when the above happens, it will refuse to charge via solar anymore
* it is difficult to reset, since it's a battery it always has power and isn't clear what the process is to fully reset it is
* sometimes it will act like it's overheated, but not spin the fans up
* sometimes the fans start up and go full blast when unplugging from the wall, or wait until it is plugged back into the wall before starting the fans
other non-software quirks:
* the fans are way noisier than anything else in my room where i keep it, including louder than the u-shape a/c unit i run off it
* there is no manual control of the fans
* the inverters for 120v ac, 12v dc, usb, etc - they do not maintain previous state when the unit loses power, they have to be manually turned on again
* it is very annoying to use on a day to day basis, and i found myself engineering really crazy workarounds so that it wouldn't draw deep into the battery charge and only start running the a/c when the sun/heat was the worst in the day
* the battery isn't really big enough to last overnight for a gaming pc that idles around 70-120w, there seems to be quite a bit of inverter loss
