Deal Details
Currently on sale for $214.94 at Amazon but you can add the carry strap separately to cart and it will be included for free. You can then return the carry strap to receive a credit of $20.76 back. Or just keep it. At $20 it still seems like a decent deal if you prefer to keep it. When I purchased the power station, the cost of the strap was $28 so by returning it, I got the power station for $188 since it's not something I need.

You sure? I have the DC version and it came with a free strap. The Amazon invoice showed it as $0.

Yes the way Amazon processes the order is they charge you separately for each item and then credit the whole order with the price of the strap. If you go to checkout with both items in your cart, it breaks down the price of the power station and strap separately. When I returned my strap, it showed a credit back to my card for the strap. I feel like it is done this way to prevent people from keeping the free strap and then returning the power station.

It would be a good deal if it came with solar panels.

Also like they said "DC Version" (equals no 3 prong or 2 prong AC)

Best Buy only sells the C300X version where the x comes with the strap. I picked up one over the holidays for $189.00.

What is the draw to this? It seems like the going price for 250wh systems is less then this. Is it the LifePo4 battery for faster charging speeds? I normally charge mine with a DC car jack, so that's not really an issue. I see that it has a UPS feature, which is nice, but the draw limits are too low for any of my computers.

Not a bad price considering inflation.

I picked this up at Lowe's last June with a solar panel for $240
