Only PCWorld hands-on-tested this exact model. It measured class-leading AC efficiency (84% at 800W, 87% at 200W) and strong value (~69 cents per rated watt-hour at debut price), but flagged worst-in-class DC efficiency (71% over a 60W USB-PD load) and heavy weight (35 lb, 32.5 Wh/lb). Single verified tester, so treat as one data point. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
