I haven't had to use it yet (thank you G). So far what I like is that as a 77 yr old lady I've been able to figure everything out. I did fully charge it then plugged in a fan to see if it worked, yeah it did!!! The weight (23 lbs) is reasonable and I can move it from room to room, if needed. I'm not a Prepper but Common Sense tells me to be prepared with what I consider essentials. We don't lose power here often in western Wyoming but it can (%26 has) happened. Being prepared gives one peace of mind and more confidence. So I've stocked up on the canned goods and paper products. Also made sure the dog and feral cats will be fed. I will say that it's a little pricey but what would I give if the power was out, the furnace and space heater had no power and I couldn't open a can of beans?? (Always have a manual can opener) So this was really a no-brainer. I went with Jackery because they've been around for many years and got very good reviews on SolarLab. I would recommend getting a Power Station for unpredictable weather and personal/family safety.
