I own this - very handy during power outages - powered my tankless water heater, coffee maker, lights, small fridge and kept all our devices charged during a 72 hour outage. Meh price tho. If you add this to your cart on the Anker website and don't check out, they'll often send you a 20% off code which would bring the price down to $400 no including any CB available.

Yeah, I remember this same Gen 2 power station was well below the $400 mark without discount codes or sales.

I only got a 5% coupon for abandoned cart earlier this year when I was shopping around. Reddit users seems to say 5% as well. Did you buy from Anker directly before? Wondering if 20% was for loyal customers or targeted.

Tested this and got a 5% coupon from Anker after about 15-20 minutes leaving it in the cart, but it's off the $499 price on their site which brings it down to $475. Amazon will still be a better price, or unless you're lucky and get the 20% off.
This was almost $100 cheaper around the holidays. If you need it now it's probably a decent deal but deals will get better towards the end of the year I would imagine.
Amazon had it down to $350 in December. Not a bad deal but if you aren't pressed to get this today it's possible you can get it for cheaper sometime in the near future

Great 2000w inverter but paired with a small battery creates limited use only. If you're using it for a few hours, it's a great system or using a 50 to 60w load, it'll run for hours. I'd go for gen2 but at that price, I'll probably buy Delta 2 max which is a solid option and I personally own it.
Pair this with an external 48v battery and connect the battery to the solar input of the Anker to get up to 600w in from the external battery. This will get you a nice small setup.
Would this thing be too much, too little, or just right if I wanted to DJ a small gathering outdoors with a laptop, electronic mixer, and maybe one medium sized speaker?
Laptop may possibly be fully charged and externally powered by another smaller external battery.

You'd have to add up the watts of all the devices and divide by the useable wattage in this unit. That number is how many hours, roughly due to losses, it would last for you. Also some of these units produce noise on speakers so you'd need to research that first and see if the inverter is "noisy."
The first gen of this unit will run my 65 inch TV, Denon stereo and Apple TV for just over 3.5 hours at a 230w/hour average draw.

I agree with with you about the pricing. Currently, imo, 1kw should be hovering around 300 or less.
