    Does exactly what I hoped it would do. I plan to use it to power a tennis ball machine at courts where there's no outlet. I tried it out and it worked perfectly. I also found that I had other uses for it around the house so I'm pleased with the purchase.

    kept my phone charged, plus was able to keep my air mattress blown up. I used it on a blower, and it kept shorting out, so I guess I have to watch wattage of items I plug in. I can't wait to get a solar panels to charge it up.

    Purchased for my sister who drives long distances for work. She uses it to recharge and run her fans and other camping equipment when parking overnight. She loves it. I have one for power outages and it comes in handy.

    Bought one to use for lighting in backyard so nobody would trip over cords for a party. Liked it so much I bought a 2nd one. Will come in handy also if you lose power because you can bring it indoors to run some small items. I do have a gas generator for the larger appliances this is just handy to have. Also purchased a fold up solar panel.

    If you need a good-sized, rechargeable battery, this is the one. Bought it to go camping with 12 friends, and everyone ended up using it. We had air mattresses, phones, speakers, you name it and I still left our 2-day trip with over 35% battery
