for hurricane prep just learn about watts and apps and your generator 50% running output. I ran a single hose 1 ton portable for years not a fan of how they work, dual hose is better but the hoses and drainage to me are more of a pain to deal with than window (but some situations apts,etc portable may be better).
specs on this is 850w with compressor running. midea u shape 8000 window inverter is around max 600 watts but being inverter it can use variable so less generator strain. However i have a U and it's a bit of a pain to mount for emergency use, you'd want to prefit eveything so it's ready to go, they're better for permanent install.
I use plain jane 5000-6000 for rooms, they get stored along with plywood or acrylic side wings/ inserts made for the windows during non hurricane season. Though the way the summer is going i'm debating leaving these in now longer and using them. I can run 2 easily for 2 small bedrooms or run them both in the master and all of us huddle in there off my inverter generator (3500 running).

Is this good to put up for use with a generator during a power outage.
Or would it be better to put up the window unit that costs a little bit less.
I'm leaning towards the window unit as it uses a couple hundred less watts for the same rated cooling power, but the portable would be a LOT easier to install.

Since there are 5-6 models in the same listing, I don't know which model they were doing that with.

No idea on the HEPA filter but I am betting you are going to be hard pressed to find a portable AC with one. You might be better getting a dedicated HEPA filter as opposed to trying to hunt down a single device to do both. Plus you still have filtration even when not running the AC.

My Midea U shape 8k BTU will spike over 950 watts on ECO COOL when first starting up in a hot room
Once at steady state it'll bounce around 100-400watts.
