But more importantly, maH is a commonly shared spec that Jackery just doesn't list. Their competitors do.
I also reviewed it for my YouTube channel : https://youtu.be/EUtZ9Z6BmWQ
(If links are not allowed, I apologize).
And I also compared it against the Anker 548 which is similar by bigger: https://youtu.be/zK9TuzKbkgE
The standout feature of this "Solar Generator" / battery bank is the 100W PD output in my opinion. I have a lot of other battery banks which are much cheaper per Wh, but they only put out 22-65W. If you have power hungry devices (MacBook Pro, etc) the 100W comes in handy.
Plus, its great for travel: planes, airports, trains, etc. Throw it in the back seat of the minivan for the kiddos, if you don't have rear cig-plug or USB ports.
Let me know if you have any questions.
That's a big powerbank but the sale price is too high, imo, and the msrp is wildly overstated. Enough to make me question any of Jackery's assertions.
Here's a decent 70,000 maH powerbank for ~$40 after clipping coupon. Double capacity, half price, more outputs. Even if they've overstated something, they still undercut this Jackery brick.

Edit: Jackery claims 100w PD vs 20 for the one I've linked, so that's at least an advantage if charging a laptop for example. And they're claiming LFP cells. Still high price. Unless I've overlooked a feature?
As you noted, the "MOVESPEED" probably has far less capacity than advertised. If you look at the 100W capable MOVESPEED, they still want $90 for it after coupon, which makes the Jackery seem like a good deal since it probably actually meets its capacity and will still be working a decade after the MOVESPEED hits the local dump. Having said that, there are powerbanks from semi-reputable manufacturers that can do similar our high wattage, have similar capacities, and cost less. I personally have this:

At $64 it's quite a bit cheaper than the Jackery, but it does throttle its charge rate down to ~60watts once it gets to ~50-60% full (I'd guess the Jackery does a little better) ... however, other than that it does quite well. It does not use LiFePO4, though, so as with the MOVESPEED the Jackery will still be working far after my PowerAdd hits the dump.

Passthrough I could not figure out quickly if the cheaper unit has it, jackery does.

That said, DC fridges can typically run on a voltage range of 12-26V, so if you use a USB-C PD trigger board [amazon.com] to lock in 20V output, that could potentially do the trick.
Li-ion is likely to be dead in 3 years.

from the description:
"MPPT technology ensures 99% solar charging efficiency."
also, I was curious about pass-thru charging. From the Q&A:
"Pass-thgouh charing ?
>> replied:
Hi. Yes, the E100 PLUS offer pass-through charging. So, you can charge the unit while using it."
I would do what your use case needs at the end of the day.
