Title reads like at ad, but this is a new way to reach energy independence. I actually have a small EcoFlow device and it’s pretty good for the price.

I hope this tech can be made available in the US soon.

    If it has anti islanding at least it’s unlikely to be a shock hazard.

    That said are there any other concerns I’m missing?

        This particular product says it’s 800W max. Most residential wall outlets installed in the last 30 years should be able to handle that (in the US). Also, it’s a product only available in Europe at the moment where they do 220 through the wall, so less than 4 amps which is stupidly low.

        Yes, being able to power your whole house through a single outlet is insane. Unless your house draws less than 800W

        That’s what anti islanding is.

        Prevents power from going into the grid when it’s down.

        Way I read it is it puts surplus into the grid to keep you elec bills down.

        800 watts isn’t exactly going to set an outlet on fire.
