[QUOTE="Aaron Gauger, post: 216685, member: 13149"] Be careful not to confuse peak power output with battery capacity. Example: The Jackery Explorer 290Wh model will support (in theory) a 290 watt load for a duration of 1 hour, or a 145 watt load for 2 hours, or a 580 watt load for 30 minutes… except that this model has a 400 watt peak output limit so you can’t actually draw 580 watts. Also, the sustained power output will likely be less than the peak power output (not sure by how much but it’s likely in the manual). Different models will have different capacities as well as different peak output ratings. The larger capacity units will support greater peak loads. Find the model that best meets your needs both in capacity and output power. Round up- no one ever wishes they had less power. Harbor Freight does seem to have some competitive prices on these units. I wasn’t aware they carried them until I read this post. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
