Excellent alternative to generators


This is so misleading, getting folks to think that they can use one of these as an alternative to a generator.

1500 Watts use for about 12 minutes at 50% DOD!! frown

Even more critical is that AGM SLA batteries need continual maintenance such as a trickle charge maintenance as they will self discharge quite readily over 6 months to the point that they will fail when the customer rolls them out thinking this product will see them through a power outage.

Even something like a Ring Automotive PowerPack 210 may prove to be more useful. Keeping the battery in continual use is always better than forgetting about it whilst is sits in the corner of the garage thinking it will work when required 6 months to a year later for that 12 minutes of use at full power!
