It looks like semi-portable “home backup” batteries are just about to head mainstream.
The Delta Pro looks very attractive, with EV charger compatibility - this would be great for my use case which would be occasional blackouts and needing to keep the food from spoiling.
Other options coming out too from other manufacturers… Bluetti EP500 looks like a tank, LFP, and very scalable up to tens of kWh, and also the ability to be wired into your panel.
On the smaller side, I’m seeing lots of ads for the new Generark Home Power 2 which looks to be (on paper) something that is easy to keep ready around the house, but the company is very new and has just one existing product that seems to be an exact clone of the Jackery 1000 (except it’s blue?). They’ve got Steve Wozniak and “Mr. Wonderful” hyping the company, but seemingly nobody’s even reviewed their existing product.
Regardless I’m still gonna wait until these have actually been on the market for a while, in the meantime I’m going to pick up a little River Pro to keep the fridge running for the typical blackouts here which only last a few hours. Ecoflow seems to have the innovation for sure.
