I used mine for the first time this weekend. Had a 6-hour power outage. Had a small (college size fridge) and a full fridge hooked up to it and when the power came back on it still had 80% left. Super heavy, but it does have a small footprint.

My C2000 Gen 2 got me through a power outage this weekend, I was abo to run my RV through the TT-30 amp cord. Was able to get 2.5 hours using my AC 12,000 BTU, Fridge and Fans.
I used ECO Mode on my AC and that seemed to help.
I cannot wait for the external batteries to drop in price. I have my eyes on the BP3000.
It has seemed for a long time like there wasn't a good middle ground between a $150 cinder block sized thing used for laptops and small electronics and then a huge block that was like $3000 and would power your house for an hour or two. Is a middle ground emerging? Something that could maybe power a window AC or space heater for a few hours or a mini fridge indefinitely would be great
The link takes me to ones with solar panels for 2x the price. When searching at Amazon for it I'm finding it for $899. Does anybody have a link that works? I'd like to compare it to the Jackery one at Costco with a solar panel. This seems like a better deal for my needs if I could find a working purchase link.

I have x2 of these functioning as UPSs and they are hands down superior for that function over my Bluetti's, Ecoflow and Pecrons. Until I got these Bluetti's were the best at UPS duty, but these are somehow far more efficient than the Bluetti's, weigh less, have a much smaller foot print, and better app control. They fit in areas that no other power station of this class gets close to.
If you're looking for a general power station that does all sorts of things for camping, there are better products, but for UPS use this unit can't be beat. I suspect these will save me a solid 150 to 250 USD a year for the lead acid UPSs they are replacing, another 75 to 150 USD per year when my state gets electrical VPP when they auto discharge during peak and top up during off peak, and last at least x5 times longer (x2 as long as my Bluetti's).
Only minor complaints are that there isn't an easy place to grab these units, and the fan is stupid load when it is under a 1000W+ charge load.
I have an Enphase solar system and wanted to stay within the ecosystem I, regretfully, bought the IQ 1500 battery at $1k (!). Although it has three IQ8 microinverters within it, I should've shopped around. The price/kW of other brands have been excellent.
It's a new release but great price. Got one for $600 during prime day. It's the best price per WH as most are $400+ per 1,000. This is $300 per 1,000 wh. It's a decent weight, easy to carry with a lip on each side. Research shows anker is one of the best brands. I've had a power bank from them for years also. We've had more and longer power outages in the last 5 years than the previous 8 (due to worsening storms). With growing data centers I don't expect it to get any better.
Anyone planning to run an AC, even a small one would only run maybe 3-4 hours on this. Guess it would work if you had a short outage or had 2 and recharged the off one with a generator.

Super heavy? This is under 36 pounds.
You should compare it to others that are 75 pounds.

This version works like a real ups, all ports start working once the house power comes back. The Segway and many others just stay completely turned off once power comes back and don't even have power pass though without manual intervention.

Better app and holds charge better when it's not in use
