Spec by spec
A green arrow marks the better figure on each row. Rows where only one unit publishes a number are shown without a winner rather than guessed.
| Metric | R2500 V2 | S2000 | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 1,920 Wh | 2,010 Wh | How much energy the unit stores. Sets how long everything else can run. |
| Continuous AC output | 2,500 W | 1,500 W | The largest load the inverter will run continuously, not counting surge. |
| Weight lower is better | 63.9 lb | 35.7 lb | The spec buyers most often regret ignoring. |
| List price lower is better | $659 | $679 | Vendor list price at the time of collection; street prices move. |
| Cost per watt-hour lower is better | $0.34 | $0.34 | Price divided by capacity. The fairest single value metric. |
| Watt-hours per pound | 30.0 Wh/lb | 56.3 Wh/lb | Capacity you get per pound carried. |
| Max solar input | 1,000 W | — | Caps how large an array is useful, and therefore off-grid recharge speed. |
| AC recharge time lower is better | 97 min | 138 min | Vendor-stated time to full from a wall outlet. |
| Rated cycles | 3,500 cycles | 6,000 cycles | Vendor claim for charge cycles before capacity degrades to 80%. |
| UPS switchover lower is better | 15 ms | 10 ms | How long the unit takes to switch to battery. Under 20 ms keeps a desktop alive. |
| Warranty | 60 months | 60 months | Stated warranty length from the vendor listing. |
