    True. I wonder if the liFePO4 batteries would be better. I wonder how much Amp hours the harbor freight really has? Some of the those battery packs have a built in way to hook up to solar panels.

    That power station has as much capacity as a $135 LiFePO4 battery. But it 5.6 times the price.

    1500 Watt inverter harbor freight is $130.

    Battery charger $60?

    Think connecting solar panels to them is pretty much the standard now.

    Have to take the complete package. The inverter system does quite a bit. Decent ones will have a pure sine inverter.

    There's some epic freight being posted.

    But The OM has already committed me to ushering on Thanksgiving.

    What do you do?

    The pre made one. You can plug the harbor freight solar panels into. It's all integrated. And it's clean.

    To build your own it's going to be stationary, granted 1/3 the cost with doubling the Amp hours at $135. Or just extra capacity one battery at a time. I don't think a pure sign HB inverter would be a lot more.
