Instead of the 50 threads on different deals, lets put them all in one. That means more site resources for asking which gun for SHTF or please review my BOB.

It's a nice unit. My only gripe (so far) is that their app is kinda kludgy and it doesn't seem to have a way to limit the charge current. If you plug it into the wall and it starts at say 50% charge, then it ramps up to about 1350 watts input. If you have anything else plugged into that circuit, you could pop a breaker. It's like running a blow dryer on max heat current-wise. I'd really like the ability to limit charge current like the EcoFlow units do. Slower charging is better for the longevity of the battery. I guess I could use the charger that came with the Pecron LFP600 that I'd bought last summer. It only puts out about 400W and would charge the big unit at that rate. With solar, the e1500LFP I think can take 700W input. I have a 600W big honking folding solar panel that I can use with it. It's been cloudy and/or rainy here the last 3 weeks so I haven't been able to test how well that works. Am hoping to get to test the 30A DC output (xt60) to power my ham radios. BTW, I would say this unit is "lug-able" not portable in a laptop kind of sense. It weighs like 40lbs. I'm hoping to try to do "winter" Field Day this year. (I put "winter" in quotes because the temps here are mid-70s highs.) ETA: I noticed the same deal running on Amazon. They also seem to be having a deal going on the expansion battery. It's supposedly 3072Wh, can be charged independently, and also has a 12V/30A output.

Nothing major, but I was browsing the Walmart camping aisle today, and found 3 MH breakfast skillet meals marked down to $6 from $11 so I grabbed those, and then there was a Sawyer Mini marked down to $10 from $22.
Nice little score. Sawyer mini and 3 MH meals for $28 Worth checking your local WM to see if they are clearancing anything. I was happy with that little find today. |
