@vriska @7666 i looked it up after a power outage here resulted in spoiling 300$ of groceries.

i bought a power station but its not enough to run the fridge. its just an anker station and a foldable panel so we have the theoretical ability to solar charge phones/laptop/tablets, which is more than we had, but

after *that* i later learned i could have powered the fridge afterall, but it required knowing what the modules were.

the stations are good for "i have money and don't want to deal with problems" and you just get a suitcase from anker or ecoflow (if you bullshit; they make you make accounts to use the phone apps) and plug shit in and it works.

the modular system is modular. you can get all kinds of shunts to measure usage and all kinds of controllers to wire a dozen solar panels or hook a fuel generator up but you have to deal with the Problems then.
