Capacity and battery
- Capacity
- 1,024 Wh (Nameplate capacity The capacity printed on the box, in watt-hours (Wh): what the battery holds when new. You get less out of it in use, because the station keeps some back to protect the battery and loses some turning it into 240 V or 12 V power., Usable capacity How much of the box capacity you can actually draw out. Most brands don't publish it, so the box figure is the only one that can be compared. not stated)

1,024Wh
- Battery type The type of cells inside the battery. Most power stations now use LiFePO4; NCM, short for nickel cobalt manganese, is the other type that turns up.
- LiFePO4 Lithium iron phosphate, the battery type most power stations now use. Battery boxes sometimes call it "lithium".

After 4,000 cycles, the LFP battery still retains at least 80% capacity.
- Cycle life How many full charges before the battery drops to a set share of its original capacity, usually 70% or 80%. 4,000 cycles to 80% is a higher bar than 4,000 cycles to 70%. The table's column counts cycles to 80% only.
- 4,000 cycles (until 80% of the original capacity is left)

After 4,000 cycles, the LFP battery still retains at least 80% capacity.
- Ah at 12.8 V Capacity in amp-hours, the way a 12 V lithium battery box states it, so the two can be compared. Worked out from the Wh figure: Wh ÷ 12.8.
- 80 Ah derived: 1,024 Wh nameplate ÷ 12.8 V = 80 Ah
- Price per Wh The price divided by the capacity on the box, in cents (¢) per watt-hour (Wh). Lower means more capacity for the money.
- 97.6¢ derived: $999 (price today) ÷ 1,024 Wh nameplate = 97.6¢ per Wh
Output
- Continuous or peak not stated The brand gives one output figure without saying whether it's the non-stop rating or a short burst, so it isn't compared with other stations' continuous figures.
- 2,000 W (AC, continuous or peak not stated)

2,000W
- Surge A short burst above the continuous rating, for appliances that need a kick to start, like a fridge compressor or a power tool. It lasts from a fraction of a second to a few seconds.
- 3,000 W (surge, AC, how long it lasts not stated)

2,000W Output via 9 Ports: Delivers 2,000W output, 3,000W peak, and 1,024Wh capacity.
- 12 V car socket A cigarette-lighter style socket that runs 12 V gear, like a camping fridge, directly. Its rating is in amps (A): a 10 A socket supplies up to about 120 W.
- 10 A (12 V)

12V 10A
- UPS switchover UPS stands for uninterruptible power supply: with the station plugged in, it takes over when the mains power cuts out, so a device stays on. Switchover is how quickly, in milliseconds (ms); smaller is quicker. The brands don't say what load they tested with.
- 10 ms (how it was tested not stated)

- Wh per kg Capacity for each kilogram carried. Higher means lighter for the capacity.
- 91 Wh/kg derived: 1,024 Wh nameplate ÷ 11.3 kg (unit only) = 91 Wh per kg
Not found on the brand's pages: continuous AC output, AC charging time, size (as stated) and stated warranty.
With a Dometic CFX5 45 (example fridge), Middle estimate The answer with every figure the brands don't publish at its middle value: a test of that station where there is one, otherwise the typical result of tests on other stations. The range runs from every one of those figures at its least favourable end to every one at its most favourable. 3.8 days on the 12 V socket (range 3.1 to 4.2 days). Worked out with this station's own draw (measured by The Technology Man) and 12 V share (measured by The Technology Man). Runtime with your own fridge, solar and driving

Capacity is the nameplate figure in watt-hours (Wh), the one on the box. AC output is the power a station can supply non-stop, not a short burst. Weight is the station on its own. A figure measured another way is shown with a note saying how, and isn't compared with the others.
