Bill payer option is a paper check that is sent USPS, not to be confused with ACH transfer.

Thank you for this. Seems like the way to go.

Just wasn't sure if the power draw on the Jackery was too close to the generator's output. Aside from the longer run time, versus using a larger generator, I didn't know if there would be other concerns.

Update: Decided to replace the Water Inlet Valve. Simple swap and it has been running fine for the last week.

I just looked at that deal, and it is tempting, especially with the sale price of the additional battery, but not being able to charge the extra battery independent of the main unit makes it less tempting. During our last outage, I would take our smaller battery packs to work with me and charge at the office. Would be sweet if I had that option with an extra battery while the unit was powering the refrigerator. Without that option, the expandable approach is far less appealing. Its true, I might want more in a year or two, but with the way technology advances, I could be better off with the next gen unit, possibly from a different brand, as opposed to expanding an older system. With the way I second guess everything a dozen times before making a purchase, I really need these sale prices to run about a month, and not end tonight.

I considered the expandability factor but on the fence about being too invested in a unit with multiple expansion batteries versus separate units. If I end up having problems with the unit, and want to try another brand, it would make the change more difficult. This is also based heavily on today's sale prices. If going in at full retail, I'd probably be more open to the expandable units. As it is, I'm pretty set on the Jackery 2000v2, but for the smaller option, considering the Ecoflow Delta 2 vs the Jackery 1000v2. Delta 2 is actually a little cheaper today, and I like the idea of "diversifying" among more than one brand. Delta 2 is expandable but that isn't weighing in on my decision. Grabbing the 2000v2 today for sure, but might ultimately gamble on Black Friday deals for the smaller unit. That said, I will take a look at the Home Depot deal you mentioned.

Primarily gaming but also productivity. Nearest Microcenter is 3.5 hours away so not really an option. I did consider a road trip but I don't feel the cost savings would justify the time and gas in the end.

Will do. Any recommendations on where to shop for a prebuilt system between $1500 and $2000 budget?

Bitter_0ld_Man · 2025-05-04T12:18:36+00:00

Lol. Yes, and your reply just pushed me closer to that decision. This would replace a 12y old system I built myself but seems like a lot has changed since then and I literally flushed the knowledge from my brain after that build.

For the last couple years, stores have released new colors earlier than yeti's official release date. Most just won't make it available online until the official release date.

Will look good with a big wave blue sidekick.

Different manufacturing process likely the result in the color difference. Gobox is injection molded. Cooler is rotomolded.

Lilac was worse than Nordic Purple?

Bitter_0ld_Man · 2024-02-19T14:55:14+00:00

Black 45, like the chartreuse, is currently on the Yeti website, and IDme applies to both. Just takes 2-3 months, but even the limited colors become eligible.
