My Easy Solar Plans is for people buying solar they can actually set up: portable power stations, backup kits, and the panels that charge them. Specs come from manufacturers and live listings. Amazon links are labeled Check price on Amazon. This is not a lab, and we do not invent hands-on tests we have not done.
Best Solar Generators and Portable Power Stations (2026) is the place to start. Six current LiFePO4 stations compared on capacity, AC output, solar input, weight, and expandability — including how to size a pack for a fridge, a CPAP, or a laptop. No prices on that page; check the live listing.

Best solar generators and portable power stations (2026) — the first buying guide. Use it to match watt-hours and inverter watts to the job, not to a marketing headline.
Best Portable Solar Panels for Power Stations (2026) — five current foldable panels checked against the six stations above: watt ceilings, Voc, and which connector actually fits.
Balcony and plug-in kits are still coming; that page will be linked here when it exists. Older articles (myth-busting, winter panels, reviews) stay on the site while we update them.
How Much Solar Generator Do I Need? — the sizing guide: watt-hours vs watts, fridge duty cycle, CPAP math, and a 24-hour outage kit.
Kits and plans
Amazon is for kits and tools you order yourself. A second track covers downloadable plans when those are ready. Neither track is a substitute for a licensed electrician on a hardwired, whole-house job.
How this site works
We compare what manufacturers publish, note when Amazon titles disagree with the spec sheet, and leave the live price on Amazon. If a unit is a camping battery, the page will not call it a house backup. When you buy through an Amazon link, this site may earn a commission. You pay the same.
