    This previous popular deal has some good discussion regarding this power station.

    I can't speak to this model but I've been really disappointed in Rockpals usable capacity. Don't know if they use less efficient inverters or just over rate their capacity but I've seen usable under 70% of rated on two different examples. This compared to mid 80%s for a similar load on a like sized battery from other manufacturers

    edit: though now that I see this is a "4- stroke" solar battery all bets are off.

    Inverters are not as efficient and I have noticed that even at 50W of AC draw, the two cooling fans tend to go full blast (and I think they are 4.5w each). This is on another model though, not sure if this one suffers from the same programming/heat
    The capacity is legit, but most people do not realize that the cooling of the device (at lower and longer sessions) will take a significant chunk of the capacity

    I'm sure you are correct that cooling takes a toll. But I tested a 500 watt/hr version with a 40 watt resistive load to give it the benefit of the doubt after it performed so poorly at 400 watts. Cooling never kicked on and ended up with about 65% rated capacity.

    Capacity is misleading, unit only provides around 380Wh of actual usage (as tested).

    $249.99 is what I paid for it last month. I think it is a fair price, now at the $600 price I would say there is a lot more to complain about. I recall hearing that it does not charge very fast. And the inverter efficiency is not the best. But what product in the price range are you comparing it to?

    The price is pretty reasonable.
    If you're gonna consider this product, pay attention to its cooling system.
    Cuz for charging power supplies over 600W, the fan and vent design really affects how it performs.
    If the cooling system ain't up to snuff, it's gonna be noisy as hell, the overheating protection will kick in and cut the power, and you won't be able to use it normally.

    I have this and it works well. I primarily use it for DC appliances so much of the negative reviews don't apply to me. Great value for the price.
