Hey TRZ, I noticed the inlet device moving around when you attached the flexible cord with the interlocking cord bodies to the inlet. Maybe you need some longer screws to attach to the sheathing and not just the vinyl siding. Just trying to help. Lights, and phone chargers draw very little wattage. Electric clothes dryers, water heaters, ovens, air-conditioning, etc., those appliances draw far more power and drain the battery much quicker than a new 75" Samsung QLED 90.
Well one things for sure. When you have a battery hooked up like that you really find out how much power is being used. All the appliances in standby made add up when your on a battery. I have replaced all the bulbs in the house with cfl and led bulbs and saw no difference in the electric bill. I have a 1000 watt that I hooked up to 1 refrigerator just to see how long it would run for. It sat almost the whole time without being opened and it only ran it for around 5 hours. I had hoped it would go longer than that. I have a 4000 watt hooked up to the breaker box and I can go from gas generator to battery really easy. I just hope the battery will run the heater through the night. If it does that maybe I can add the refrigerator on to it. Just want to have the essentials and the quiet while everyone is sleeping.
Awesome video brother. This was super informative. Thanks for bringing it to the channel. Gotta ahow this to the wife, it will come in handy in the spring.
Question: Will this single unit run/start a heat pump??? And for those of us who still have our tri-fuel generators, please discuss the possibility of using a tri/gas generator to charge/supplement the charging of the Solix. Maybe topping off the Solix before dark so that the Solix can power everything quitey at night. These power stations are looking better every day. Good stuff, Thanks.
You would need to know the wattage of your heat pump but with a 6k watt inverter using the 240v outlet on the solix you should be good as long as it’s not trying to run everything else in the house at the same time. As far as generator yes you could use that to charge the solix.
Come on guys….this would run a 120v fridge for a day. This may be good to great to power a 12 volt camping fridge for a few days and phone charging + usb lights. You’re going to need a quite few of these or some how connect a large bank of batteries to run a house full of 120 volt stuff for a day.
That one last year that had us out for 2 days was horrible. I couldn't imagine what some of these people are dealing with in the south right now brother
That's why you need solar panels and an extra battery so one is always charging while you are using the other one. Ideally 4 larger batteries to cover both day and night. Will Prowse has some good videos on how to wire them up.
Some people also get an inverter propane/natural gas/gas generator and charge the battery. Not having to run the fuel generator 24/7 is nice from a noise perspective.
Now THAT'S REAL Nace-Like! 😮
Go Clint!
Definitely real nass like Redd!!!!

Great eye. I just had the siding redone and they didn't tighten it back up enough so I went out and screwed it down again 👊👊👊

This is absolutely great equipment in case of emergency. Love it😍👌
C1000 After Firmware Update Doesn't Say X Anymore Thank You For Your Input Soon be Getting 2 F3800
Pretty cool. Its got all the features

Thanks brother
interesting product. i know generators always expensive gotta run them outside bunch extension cords. but product you showed seems practical.
Clint, that was a great description and walk through. Looks like a beefy unit.

I have been looking at that power station for awhile now, just waiting for when I can afford it! lol
Great job on the review amigo!
I knew the "I'm a man" bit was coming and still laughed my ass off!
I like Anker.

It's huge.
You did a great job with this video! ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸
Been a lot of annoying outages this year.
That one last year that had us out for 2 days was horrible. I couldn't imagine what some of these people are dealing with in the south right now brother
@@ToolReviewZone We had tornadoes in August but it wasn't too bad for us. Some areas were out for a week. Down south is another level.
But won’t the battery juice leak out if you lay it down??
Lol
Wot da
What, no pesky Gnome cameo?
He's just so pesky 😢
LOL
“this thing”
What if you have 4 days no power.
That's why you need solar panels and an extra battery so one is always charging while you are using the other one. Ideally 4 larger batteries to cover both day and night. Will Prowse has some good videos on how to wire them up.

@@ChatGPT1111I wish he would explain that too in this video.
Thank you.
