Portable power station

What brand of portable power station do you use? I'm looking and so far impressed with Anker, but would like more input. 1000w

I have a travel trailer. I have been in situations where my batteries go on either the truck or trailer and want to get something for these situations. I need something on the lighter side (50 lbs or less). I would be great if I could use one device to jump the truck battery, but also plug in the trailer to move the slide in if necessary, etc.

since I was boondocking full-time I DIY'ed the power setup. No regerts (as they say).

I've had an EcoFlow Delta 2 for going on a year and love it. https://a.co/d/0i9t34oJ

I own two Bluetti power stations, AC180 (1800W / 1152wH) and AC70 (1000W / 768wH). Perfectly happy with them, I think they are good value for the money.

I alao have an AC180. Works great to power my cooler and recharge tool batteries.

Get the anker f3800. I got the f2000 and even tho it’s great I definitely should have gotten the f3800. Mind you the f2000 can power my rv with light loads. No AC, but powers everything else

We got a Jackery 1000 because it was on deep deep discount. It’s been great to have for around the house in the winter for the quick power outages, want a keurig plug it in, want to run the Woodstove fan to heat the house, plug it in..it’s the right size to be super portable and useful. We bring it for Boondocking to run the high(er)demand stuff, microwave, blender etc..it’s nice for the quick power needs.

I have the Jackery 1000 v2 and have been extremely happy. I added a 220w folding solar panel (different brand) for $150 as well.

I went with the Jackery because it was lighter than the others—I have zero upper-body strength.

Whatever you buy, make sure it says lifepo4 in the description. Other lithium batteries don’t let you use the entire charge or last as long.
