    Impressive energy density in that package. I've used SLA batteries about that size and you only get about 72Wh on them (and they're probably a lot heavier too). 1000Wh in that same package, with 2000W peak/1000W continuous current is INSANE (typically, the downside to using LiPo, or similar, batteries is that the current you can pull from them is substantially lower than less energy-dense alternatives).

      You basically just saw that exact same thing. These Jackery amps have solar arrays you can hook up that can basically completely offset the amount of power he was just using. I live the 'digital nomad' life out of a Mercedes Sprinter, and this Jackery plus 4 solar panels keeps my entire 'grid' up. I let it charge while I'm just sitting around or splitting wood for fire or whatever, and I leave the panels plugged in while gaming. I game on an Omen 30L and two 31 inch AOC curved monitors and with my 4 solar panels it charges faster than it consumes. Best part about this set up is that I can even charge it while I'm driving because it came with a 12v cigarette charger. So long story short, with 4 solar panels and having it charge while I drive I use this to power a gaming set up as well as a full 'van life' set up for essentially free.

      It's more useful for a UPS, where you usually have a data hookup between the battery and the desktop that lets it know if it's on battery or mains, and what the remaining runtime is. That way the computer can go into a power-saving mode to extend your runtime, and automatically hibernate when the battery gets low.

      North America uses 120volts for a typical wall plug. Europe uses 230-240volts for their wall plugs. I wish 208/230/240 was typical due to amp draw. Note that most homes in the US do have 208/230 volts single phase at their breaker panels which is used for clothes dryers, air conditioner, or other high Amp appliances. I think Canada and Mexico do to. Canada however uses 50hrz whereas US is 60hrz.

    Its maximum input charge from solar seems to be 200w. (2 x 100w solar panels) I'd like to see that increased to 400w minimum, using 4 of their solar panels or even 600w using 2 x 300w solar panels (standard roof panels). That would give it a 2 to 3 hour recharge and make it a truly viable alternative to a generator when camping for more than 1 day.
