I bought an Anker SOLIX F3800 with extra battery but the transfer time
is a little too long so all my equipment reboots when it switches to
battery. That's really not ideal and can be a problem for these "Power
Stations." I did buy the Anker SOLIX Home Power Panel which is an
automatic transfer switch and have yet to install that which might
improve the situation but I wanted to mention the issue since it is a
common one.
