«A good deal»
I bought two of these to use as a power backup when my AC goes out. I am a CPAP user and it is important for me that my CPAP unit runs all night. using the 12 VDC directly I can get 2 nights of CPAP per charge... this will get me thru most power episodes.
These are great units for the size and they will also crank your car or truck easily when your battery craps out. they come with a very robust and well-thought-out set of proprietary jumper cables which make it nearly impossible to reverse polarity or short them out.
I got these units for 99 bucks each and they are super. great for taking along camping or traveling as well. there is a lot of battery on board. The Duracell brand and the Xantrax brand are one and the same.
Previously I have used a 450 AH version for about 5 years now and it has never failed me yet.

«Great for camping.»
This product is great at its primary purpose, being a portable battery. Although the radio's sound quality is not the greatest, it still works great to listen to storm warnings and such. I would reccomend this to anyone that is considering buying this product.

«Good Product»
I bought this a few weeks ago for power backup here in Florda during hurricane season. Haven't used it for that yet, but a friend used it to jump start his car a few times until he got a new battery. No problem with that. I also used it to power my hedge trimmer. Much easier than plugging and unplugging extension cords while going around my yard. It's not a generator, but I think it's a good alternative for what it is.
