Dakota Lithium “Solar Generator”

Though I despise the use of the term “Solar Generator”
here’s a power unit some may find interesting:

Powerbox+ 135 Waterproof Solar Generator, 12V 135Ah 1000CCA Battery

Dakota Lithium 12V 135Ah portable waterproof power station and solar generator battery plus engine starting power of 1,000 cold cranking amps cars & trucks.

The pricing for such configurations are amazing to me ... north of $1.5k for the powerbox, and $1.2k for the 12v135ah battery alone.

These must be very rugged to get the "dakota" name on them (according to the "about page" on their website).

I'm still on the fence about diy LiFePO4 battery or buying (I have AmpereTime/LiTime), but I'm not on the fence at all about "solar generators" ... it must be a hot market, given the number of all these offerings.

Yeah, they’re pricey.

Convenience and portability has value.
And not having to build diy something electrical has maybe even more value to probably the bulk of the general population.

My Bluetti AC200Max is very useful, it’s actually running my dryer as I write this.
Take that power company. ?
