What I look for:<br>Surge capacity is critical <br>as well as pass through charging,<br>how many means of charging simultaneously <br>temperature sensitivity/range ...<br>Build quality, expandability, ...<br>Just a note, I live near a college and at the end of the school year I picked up a 11 cu ft. Frig/freezer in perfect condition for $50. I bought it specifically for power outages. Far less power demand then my 22 cu ft side by side in the kitchen.

Thank you also for the DIY section, and common mistakes summary at the end. My current project is for an RV to be used as temporary housing during a house build, so a solar generator makes more sense due to space requirements.

Thank you for including some of the Pecron models, yet didn't include the 3600 lfp, 3800 lfp, or the 5000. I have heard that the customer support has improved some. I also appreciate Anker being included. Thank you again for the great information.
