Typically this system is used as a home backup system for homes that experience blackouts or brownouts. However, a system like this can also server as a power system for an off-grid cabin, tiny home, yurt, or earthship. This was a sponsored video. We only test systems that we'd actually consider using in real life, and we give our unvarnished opinions. Cost is always a factor for us, and we love affordable / DIY solutions when possible.
With the ability to power 6000W of appliances at once, a system like this is great for emergency backup or off-grid living. This system has a battery capacity of 3840Wh (3.8kWh). The average US home uses about 29-30 kWh of electricity daily.
We used this system to power:
- Small AC Unit (~600W)
- Oscillating fans (~50W)
- Space heater (1400W - we'd use our wood stove in real life, this was just for educational purposes)
- Electric blanket (100W - an energy efficient way to stay warm using the Anker SOLIX F3800)
- Power tool charging: Chainsaw, mower, hedge trimmer, leaf blower (500W)
- Small fridge / freezer (~100-200W)
- Dehumidifier (~300-400W)
- Lights (~25-50W)
- Air compressor (~1300W)
We were happy with the ease of use, performance, and ability to power many tools at once using this system. With a 10 year+ lifespan, this could be a good option for off-grid living.
