Never did I think that I should have a portable power pack...until an ice storm left us powerless for 7 days in -10 degree weather. Had I taken the time to research the power sources out there I may have been better prepared. Now, I have a whole house backup generator, a solar tracking battery charger with 400 AH of storage and a 3000 watt inverter. I also have several small emergency power packs and a second generator that I can transport easily. It is not realistic to think that they can provide enough power to operate a space heater, so I have propane space heaters as a backup for my natural gas furnace. I am better prepared these days.
The portable power packs can be used for camping, the home and out in the field. I personally want them to be lightweight and portable. Nobody should be lugging around an 80-100 pound lead acid battery unless it is on wheels. I recommend the following in no particular order.
Supplies up to 1,500 watt household electricity
1,500 watt inverter and 51Ah AGM battery
AC and DC plug included
Portable, wheeled design
800-watt inverter with five 115V AC power outlets for operating multiple devices simultaneously

Digital LED display indicates battery capacity status and total wattage of the devices connected to the PowerSource
Sealed, non-spillable 51Ah AGM battery
Power lights, tools, refrigerators, freezers and health care equipment
Silent and safe, no noise or fumes
Safe to operate indoors; no cords coming from outside
