Thoughts on everyone’s preference. I am simply looking at my first backup power source in case we lose power (family of four). Just currently want for the basics maybe a fridge some fans and some lights. I already ordered and received the Jackery 1500 v2 from Costco with the panel (I know it’s a crappy 100w panel) for $600. And now I’m seeing the Anker s2000 at Home Depot for $600 without any panel. Might be able to get for $540. What would you guys prefer? Interested for your opinion. Anker has the bigger battery, Jackery has less more wattage. Neither I believe can expand via battery.

Thanks for your help!!!

Looking at either the Jackery 1500 or the Anker solix c1000. I know the Jackery has better specs but wouldn’t it be the wiser decision to go with the one that has more expandability? I mean if I have enough ports and draw power for the big stuff, isn’t the expandable battery and solar charging capability the most important at this point.?
Let me know and thank you so much for any help. Trying to get started on being road trip/home power outage ready. Thanks

Hi all, any help appreciated. Ordered a Euhomy car fridge and it was delivered today by Amazon. And despite multiple clear markings and words, it was delivered on its side. Is it worth returning for replacement? Or can I just sit it uprogtt get for a while? Box doesn’t seem to be damaged, I’m just not sure the driver saw the markings or was able to read?
Let me know and I appreciate your help. Don’t need it ASAP so I can wait for a swap. Thanks

Waiting on a 48qt dual zone Euhomy car fridge. Mostly for long road trips nothing too long. Wondering if anyone can recommend a battery source so I don’t have to use car power all the time. Not particularly wanting to use solar, but always open to hearing suggestions

Thanks in advance

I don’t watch much television but my family does. I’ve noticed the last few weeks that many of the NBC channels don’t work. However, if I watch an NBC channel through a “preformatted group” ie. Tubi, directv from the reseller it does work. So any idea why the original NBC channels aren’t working? I believe I have playlist update when app (tiviMate) is started so that should be good. But I do have the playlist set up through (opp)editor.

Any help is appreciated. And thank you in advance.

Will no dealer give a price via an email inquiry. My last few cars I’ve negotiated completely via email even text, Honda and ford. I tried Costco and even sending emails and no dealer will reply with a price. Do they all want the same old fashioned come into the dealership and we’ll corner you and make you keep waiting?
I’m just not into that shit especially after being so successful negotiating my last vehicle all by text.
To be specific I want to see what a realistic price would be for a new xc90 B6 plus, 6 seater. I’m in central / north NJ if anyone has any suggestions. Thanks. Oh and also, if anyone here favors going CPO over new I’m all ears. I’ve haven’t bought used in a few of decades and would rather buy new, but it seems there are some people that really prefer the cpo route

Good day all, just wondering what people are thinking of their pilot’s road noise. I was driving my wife’s 2024 Elite with my family this weekend and couldn’t help but notice it seems very very loud on the road. Almost like an undercard helicoptering noise like when you have only one window open. It wasn’t as loud as that but was a similar sound. I did notice tire pressure was high (mostly 38 and 39) so I know that has to be adjusted

I mean it was 4 hours highway in NY and nj areas so roads weren’t great but it’s where we drive. It was enough to make me start looking at new cars

Let me know your thoughts and thank you!!
