Sometimes. If anyone is interested, Anker has cut prices on their 2000w power station. Can be charged by car, solar, of course, household outlets. Decided to pickup one for those times I am away from home, power goes out and wife knows not how to run our two Honda inverters...yes, I have showed how several times. Funny thing is both the old model and their newer model were price slashed and are selling for the same $400. Amazon is also offering for same $.
