โ€œA shame that the original post has gone, but I'll share my experiences anyway. I used to own an Ecoflow Delta 2 for my log cabin which I loved - it worked really well with about 1.8kW power delivery (could boil a travel kettle using it), but I found that it wasn't quite enough capacity to last a full weekend. We had a 50W coolbox attached to it, and it would be flat after a day. One thing you've got to realize is that the capacity that the manufacturer says you're getting is not what you actually get - this is because the inverter, display and fans all take energy, and in fact the useable amount of capacity on the Delta 2 was only about 800Wh. Talking of fans - the fans on the Delta 2 were REALLY loud, and that was one reason I decided to sell it. About 6 months ago I upgraded to an Anker power station (it's the Solix F2000 for anyone who's interested). It's got the all important Li-Po battery tech and a much more chunky 2048Why of capacity - (of which about 1700Wh is useable). I've coupled this with some solar powers and can now last almost indefinitely on free solar if I'm reasonably careful with what I use through the day. Overall I'd definitely recommend these things but they're not cheap - make sure you get a decent warranty - most of the big players are offering 5 years now as standard. I've not had any technical problems with either manufacturer though to be fair - hopefully it'll last me a long time!โ€

โ€œEcoflow is the only battery-pack brand I've ever had trouble with. Had to return one large set. Current medium-sized one has problems, but I can live with them.โ€

โ€œSame, I just went to Costco in Carolina and there were only 3 Jackery 1000 left. This was the first time I saw them in PR so I bought one quickly. It's great value for $799 and a bonus solar panel. Hopefully, we get power back soon.โ€

โ€œThe Jackery kit won't work, but not for the reason you stated. If you look at the technical specifications listed for the unit, it states that the AC outputs are 120V. You mentioned that the pump control box says it's 230V. So the Jackery kit won't be able to output the voltage to match what you need. You misunderstand how the breaker for you pump is set up/works. A double 20A breaker is designed to trip if the current passing through it exceeds 20A. Most US residential electrical services are split phase 240V supplies. That means you have 2 hot wires and a neutral wire entering your main electrical panel. The purpose of the double circuit breaker is to look at the current traveling though both hot wires to your 240V motor, and if one of them exceeds the breaker's rating (in this case 20A,) it disconnects power from both hot wires to the motor at the same time.โ€
