I'd needed this due to two power outtages within a week. Also because of final exams which last 3 hours long on a computer. Took about 4.5/5 hours to full charge through wall outlet and it came delivered at approximately 50% charged already. Powered up router and laptop. Used it for my blender, Table lamps and cell phone no problem. The value of this portable lightweight solar capable generator is astounding!!! Four AC outlets, 4 DC inputs, 4 USB ports with 1 being a C-type and car port including large flash light panel with accompanying on/off buttons for those sections makes this highly valuable! Now with only 300 watts you're not going to power up your home refrigerator, stove and microwave but for lesser watt items the Big Blue delivers. I'd almost thought about sending it back for a different unit with more watts such as 500 or 1000, but you'll get less AC outlets, less USB ports and DC inputs and probable lack of a flashlight with a higher price tag. So that's the tradeoff. But the beauty is that you can keep this Big Blue generator as a secondary unit and run it for small items and purchase a different brand with more watts and still save money short term and the long run. Would be great if Big Blue had available units with more wattage capability and similar functions/options. In essence this suited my immediate needs.
P.S. I did try this on a small portable heater and it turned on, but didn't generate heat. Found out the heater needed more wattage power. Also tried a slow cooker and portable electric grill, but higher wattage was needed for them to work. Also bought a 63 watt solar panel from Big Blue but have yet to try it.
