About average or a 5W solor unit with a small battery
This has garnered a lot of very negative reviews partly due to unrealistic expectations and mostly because of bad product description.

Good but not as good as promised
Had a power out and finally was able to use it; it powered my laptop for about 2 hours and then crapped out; this is from a full charge….

I use the solar powerpack primarily on camping trips for pumping up air mattresses and charging my cell phone. It works great!

Xpower power pack
I purchased this product for my trailer and for when I’m far away from normal power sources (off the grid) and it has performed like a champion.

I was skeptical, but after two camping trips and a power outage using the Xantrex Xpower Powerpack I am pleasantly surprised.

The main thing wrong with this unit is the price.
I like the unit. I just wouldn’t pay over a hundred and thirty dollars for it. I got mine on eBay for eighty five, including S&H.
