    Something you didn't cover, and because you didn't cover it, I'm unsure if this system can do it, but if it can do it, it could be helpful to literally every household. Power directly from the power company can have spikes, which can cause damage to electronics. I'd like to know if this kind of system can take in the power from the power company, store it in the batteries, and then the house can be run completely from the batteries with a simulated wave that is cleaner then what the power company provides. Meaning, since the power from the power company never actually enters the house directly, there is never a chance of a power spike that can damage our expensive TVs, computers, etc. and of course, protection from unexpected power outages. I have no solar power, but if I could buy this kind of protection for my electronics on top of protection from power outages, I would very much consider it, and I think most people who follow your channel would also consider it.

    Other mfg's provide longer warranties and extended deep cycles compared to what you are offering.
    Too much fluff and NOT enough technical information, including prices is given on your website for the Off Grid user.
    Not everyone is connected to the grid!
    Off Grid users require storage capacity from 30 kWh to 120 kWh using 10 to 15 kW of solar arrays.

Anker did this with their other home backup system to where they sent it out to RUclipsrs who all produced a scripted video that conveniently left out the main weakness of the product.
    By doing this commercial you placed doubt on ALL of your product reviews. How can we trust anything that you say when your "reviews" are so easily "bought and paid for".
    You should have stuck with your "bread and butter" of TV reviews or told people that you are expanding into home backup and solar generators and done so by using your own money first to purchase a system and review it to gain credibility

    Really upset at Caleb right now !
    He said at the beginning this was a sponsored video. It is not. It is a commercial.
    In a sponsored video you compare this to similar products, you talk about pro's and con's (I doubt this product is perfect), you talk about the Cost of extra batteries and the extra Cost of solar, ect.
    Based on what he does for a living and what is expected of this channel,
    He should have clearly stated that this is More than sponsored.

    Independence and freedom brought to you by the CCP 🇨🇳 I love me some Anker. I know their marketing schtick. Those nerds even gave me an $1,800 laser projector to ‘influence.’ Responding to a few threads with ‘no it can’t’ and ‘it’s subjective you fool’ was sweet. That being said this is EXTREMELY tacky. Leave puff piece BS to the webpage fellow Portlander.
