EcoFlow’s $200 PowerStream is so clever, you might buy a $4,000 solar generator (www.theverge.com)

Title reads like at ad, but this is a new way to reach energy independence. I actually have a small EcoFlow device and it’s pretty good for the price.

I hope this tech can be made available in the US soon.

Yes as your granddad points out, you can’t just plug a power source into any old outlet at any time. Selling a system like this on Amazon to apartment dwellers seems to encourage just that behavior.

You cannot plug in any old power source, but you can with special micro inverters.
