EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max Plus

Big enough to run most household appliances (including a kettle) but still merchandised as 'portable' by EcoFlow. A strong middle ground if the smaller DELTA 3 isn't enough but a fixed home-backup unit is overkill.

Jackery Explorer 500 v2

The 6,000-cycle rating is the headline here — roughly double most rivals in this size class, so it should outlast years of regular use. 500W output is enough for small appliances and charging gear, not a kettle.
