   Best of luck with this👠  
      
      
   I read reviews, looked them over a bit a couple years ago when I   
   noticed HF had them. Found it interesting how many people were using it   
   to run their CPAP machines while camping or off grid...

   -----------------------------   
   An example of how I could use portable AC was at a recent flea market where   
   I found a Tek TDS3054 4 channel 500MHz DSO scope for sale cheap, with the   
   warning that some buttons don't work well/at all and he thought it would be   
   too difficult to take apart for cleaning. He had AC power but I couldn't see   
   much in bright sunlight, or take it into shade. Anyway, he ended up asking   
   $40 "for parts".   
      
   A quick check at home confirmed that it does at least partially work. He   
   assured me that it wasn't 'hot' and could be sent out for repair. It's the   
   oldest version with a floppy drive instead of USB.  I could buy several   
   Jackerys for the asking price of just its optional battery pack.   
      
   When it was new Tek's reputation had fallen and I ordered an HP Infiniium of   
   similar capability for $20,000 instead. In 15 minutes it caught and was   
   clearly displaying a glitch another department had struggled with for weeks.   
      
   The French equivalent, Jacquerie, means a revolt of the peasants.
