Best power station for camping
For a carried campsite, the EcoFlow RIVER 2 (7.7 lb, 256 Wh) and Anker SOLIX C300 (288 Wh) cover a CPAP and lights; a Danby compact fridge pushes you toward the RIVER 2 Pro, DELTA 2, or AC180 if you can spare the weight.
Camping here means one or two people, not a roof air conditioner. Weight is published for most of these models. The C300's weight was not on the product page, so it is not ranked by pounds.

Questions
Best power station for camping?
For a carried campsite, the EcoFlow RIVER 2 (7.7 lb, 256 Wh) and Anker SOLIX C300 (288 Wh) cover a CPAP and lights; a Danby compact fridge pushes you toward the RIVER 2 Pro, DELTA 2, or AC180 if you can spare the weight.
What does the hours column measure?
CPAP runtime at 56.1 W. The hours use nameplate watt-hours times 0.85, divided by the average draw named in that column. They are not a lab test of the station.
Why is the list short?
Only stations with a published spec in this set are ranked, and only the first rows are shown. A model that cannot hold the running watts is omitted from the fridge, CPAP, and RV lists. The sump-pump list keeps the stations that will not run it so the cutoff is visible.
Where should I read the caveat?
Camping here means one or two people, not a roof air conditioner. Weight is published for most of these models. The C300's weight was not on the product page, so it is not ranked by pounds.
