Ego 56v. Nexus Escape 150-Watt Power Inverter PAD1500

Took camping and was great to charge devices for everyone. Also very useful when the power went out and our electric recliner needed to be closed…just plug in and works great!

I live in the Bay Area and the power outages are becoming regular occurrence. So i bought this and it has been incredibly useful during this most recent and ongoing outage. It is pure sine wave so it powers my sony 50" tv, and anything else 150 watts and below. Not sure why someone described it as glorified laptop powering station. I would highly recommend this for anyone with existing Ego batteries. The price is not unreasonable, particularly since the inferior Ryobi 40 volt system inverter is the same price. With a little more usage of the device, I should point out that I was not able to power up my Sony 50 inch TV with the 2.5 amp battery. The 5.0 worked well. I believe you will find all these specs in the description of the product. A smaller TV might be OK with 2.5 amps. The fast charger requires wattage of 550 which will require a generator or powerful car inverter. the slower charger is 155 watts, which worked with my Bestek 500 watt inverter with a bunch of things running on it. The one small detractor is it doesn't seem to turn itself completely off when not used. There is an easy on off switch, but if you just unplug something and let is sit there, I think the battery drains a bit. There is only AC plug. The two USB outlets you could do without given all the options that exist to charge your phone or iPad I just bought another one. You can't match the portability and its fine for most indoor stuff you'll need to keep running during a power outage under 24 hours. Beyond that, this won't run important stuff like a microwave, etc. But you can plug in your modem/router, cable box, and TV since it puts out a pure (as opposed to modified) sine wave. And a table lamp on top of that. just need to split the one AC plug on it.

Coupled with the right size battery like he BA2800 (warning: these batteries are expensive). the Nexus Escape allows 150 watt output. I tried it using a 60 watt LED light (equivalent 8.5 watt) with the BA1400 battery which lasted just shy of 5 hours. Using the BA2800 battery, light kept shining past 13 hours before I quit so I do not know how long battery would last. But the portability is great to the point I bought another one. Yes, it has shortcoming a a limit of 150 watt output uses the modified square sine wave. Reason this latter is important is due to cpap and bipap users. Makers do not suggest an inverter because sine waves are not controlled well. However, I plan on trying to see if I can get thru one night on the battery. Would make me feel a lot better if it lasted and since CO would not be an issue, it would also make me feel safer. EGO: - you have a good thing here but some improvements would be helpful 1. increase output to 300 to 500 watt.. Much more and batteries would drain too fast 2. add a DC port. Most cpap machines have a cigarette connection allowing sine waves to be steadier. A plus doe cpap and bipap users. 3. um Can't think of anything else.

I purchased this a couple months ago because I was looking for a power supply for some upcoming camping trips. There's lots of options available, even cheaper options, but I figured I already have the batteries why not make the investment. I'm so glad I did. So far this thing has performed wonderfully. It blows up air mattresses and charges phones like it nobodies business. In fact, I packed all four of my batteries and only ended up going through one 5 Ah battery through 2 days. I think my next purchase will be a small fan that will be powered by this power supply. I've even found myself using it around the yard for small jobs where I didn't want to mess with an extension cord. 2 months in, no issues here. I recommend it!
