The Delta 3 Plus is particularly at ease as home backup thanks to its advanced inverter: its UPS switchover under 10 ms protects the router, computer and lighting, and above all it supports the NAS and HID protocols, which shields a network storage server and its peripherals during an outage, where a classic station might cut a NAS and corrupt data. Its 1024 Wh cover these loads for several hours, expandable to 5 kWh with add-on batteries to last through a long outage. Its 1800 W (2400 W X-Boost) handle an occasionally demanding appliance, and its 0-80% recharge in 40 minutes tops it up fast when power returns.

The Cube 1000 is built for home backup thanks to a UPS function that switches over in just 30 milliseconds: your router, computer, lights and a small fridge stay powered through an outage with no reboot. Its base 1024 Wh already covers several hours, but the real strength is its modularity: up to four add-on batteries clip on with no cables, taking total capacity to 5120 Wh, enough to run a whole household for several days without buying a second station. Its 2200 W continuous output (4400 W peak via R-Drive) runs an oven, a kettle or a vacuum cleaner without flinching, and it recharges at up to 1250 W on mains or 800 W via solar to keep going through a prolonged outage. The one trade-off for a fixed setup: at 16.2 kg it's less portable than a lighter station, a fair price for this level of expandability.
Aferiy P210 Ideal
See price and availability (7)
With 2048 Wh, 2400 W (up to 4800 W peak), a LiFePO4 battery and a 7-year warranty, the Aferiy P210 targets the best capacity-to-price ratio on the market.

With 2048 Wh and a UPS switchover under 10 ms, the Aferiy P210 behaves like a genuine home backup unit: when the grid drops, the fridge, internet router, lights and a computer keep running with no perceptible interruption. Its generous capacity holds these essentials for several hours, or a full night if you stick to the fridge and a few lamps. The LiFePO4 battery (4000 cycles) and 7-year warranty make it a reassuring choice for a backup role it will handle for over a decade with little capacity loss. Its 2400 W output even covers a space heater or a pump during an outage. One limit to note: it is not expandable, so your reserve stays at 2048 Wh; to carry a whole home for several days, recharge it from solar (up to 500 W) or pick an expandable model.
Segway Cube 2000 Ideal

The R-Drive function allows up to 4400W for demanding resistive appliances (kettles, electric ovens), and a full mains recharge in 1h48 quickly tops the reserve back up between outages. At 26.1 kg it's better suited to a fixed spot than frequent moving around the house, but that's exactly the use case it's built for: a backup power hub you set up once, backed by a 5-year warranty and an LFP battery rated for over 4000 cycles.

- Recharge : Mains in ~1h48
- 1382Wh LiFePO4, 14 outputs and 5-year warranty
During an outage, the Growatt Infinity 1300 secures the essentials: its UPS function (20 ms switchover) keeps the internet box, computer, lighting and a fridge running without a reboot, and its 1382 Wh cover these loads for many hours. Its 1800 W accept an occasionally hungry appliance, and a solar input up to 800 W replenishes it during a lasting outage in good weather. LiFePO4 chemistry (3000 cycles) ensures good longevity for occasional as well as recurring backup use. To cover a whole home for several days in a row, aim for a higher capacity; on short-to-medium cuts, it does the job with margin.

Frequently asked questions
For a router, phones and lighting, 500 to 1000 Wh is enough. To keep a fridge or freezer through a long outage, aim for 1500 to 2500 Wh with at least 1500 W output and, ideally, a UPS function.
The UPS automatically switches to battery in under 20 ms during an outage. Your sensitive devices (computer, router, alarm, CPAP) never shut down. It is the essential criterion for backup use.
Yes. A fridge draws 40 to 100 W on average: a 2000 Wh station keeps it going for about a day, longer with solar charging. Check that the output power covers the compressor's start-up surge.
Yes, provided you meet the power and runtime the manufacturer requires. Prefer a station with a UPS function and enough capacity for a full night, and test the setup before relying on it.
