Alternative power back-up solutions (not Ecoflow brand)

[Alexander1312]

Given the incident this morning regarding my Ecoflow Power Backup (refer to tank journal), I am considering switching brands.

Has anyone used this one?

Limited-time deal: BLUETTI Elite 200 V2 Portable Power Station with Car Charging Cable (Car Port to XT60), 2073.6Wh LFP Battery Backup w/ 4 2600W AC Outlets, 17-Year Lifespan, Solar Generator for Camping, Off-grid https://a.co/d/dkLonur

Direct comparisons on various factors between the Ecoflow and this seems to favor the Bluetti.

Also found this, which seems very good too, and the company seems to be from California.

Limited-time deal: Jackery Explorer 2000 v2 Portable Power Station, 2042Wh LiFePO4 Home Backup Battery, 2200W Solar Generator, USB-C PD 100W Fast Charging for Emergencies, Power Outages, Camping(Solar Panel Optional) https://a.co/d/4I7EkJw

My Jackery is an older one and it doesn’t do passive power, so it’s not great for reef tanks. Just double-check the Jackery model you’re looking at to make sure it actually has passive power.

Passive power as well as fast-switching. When I did my research the Ecoflow was one of the only options that could seamlessly switch to backup power without meaningful interruption to the circuit when power went out.

Looks like the EcoFlow is the slowest switcher of the three, but this is also not the newest model. All of them can do the UPS/pass through mode.
