Battery Back up power.

I was looking at building my own "power wall" in my shed when I ran across these. I can just grab this and take it wherever I need to. It was far cheaper than buying a charge controller, inverter and some batteries. Especially lithium batteries, they are pricey! Lead acid of any variety (AGM, etc.) are heavy and don't tolerate discharging like LifePO4 bats do. These are the easy button.

How do you utilize it in your home to lower your bill?

You have it run certain appliances 24/7? Curious.

Yes I run about 80% of my 110 in the house

What can you power with this?
My concerns is deep freeze or two off and on.
A few lights in the house.
A microwave and charge some phone battery packs or phones themselves .

Says upright fridge 41 hours. I bought it to run a CPAP machine while dry camping and such.

I have used it down to 20% twice now and it works perfectly. Fast charge on 110 in the shop.

So I opted to try one out, and the gents here convinced me on safety with the Lifepo4 battery instead of thhe dangerous lithium.

You do realize that the Li in LiFePo is lithium, right?

Yes it is, but it's a completely different chemistry.

So for CPAP, phones, and misc. I use the one I posted in #2. I have a combo propane/unleaded generator for the fridge for the long term.

He said lithium, not Li-ion, but it was a joke. Like the funny kind, only different.
