What do you need to keep running?
Tap everything that matters. You can adjust the hours later.
How long does it need to last?
Most US outages end within a day. Storm outages can run 2 to 4 days.
Fine-tune hours per day
Prices are what each maker's page showed on October 12, 2026 and change often. Ranking is by fit first, then price. How we rate · See all 20 models
Math you can check
Battery need = daily watt-hours × days ÷ 0.85 inverter efficiency × 1.05 reserve. Output must cover everything running at once, plus the biggest motor's startup surge.
Only brands we'd buy
Bluetti, EcoFlow, Jackery, Goal Zero and Anker SOLIX. All five offer LiFePO4 batteries, multi-year warranties and US support. We skip no-name units entirely.
Paid the same by everyone
We earn a similar commission from each brand, so there is no reason to steer you. The ranking is fit, then price, and you can see every spec we used.
