So the power has been off at the high school I teach at for the past 3 hours. I pulled out the Bluetti Power Station and the solar panel, and it's running the DC return pump on my classroom 175 reef with no problems. The pump draw is about half of the charging input, so the battery is charging while running the pump. It is a partly cloudy day in Miami, so there's that. Still, I am impressed with this little portable unit. It's under a grand on Amazon. The solar panels are extra, but in the next month or two, complete packages will go on sale at deep discounts.

Yes, Bluetti is a good power station.
 
I have a similar ecoflow power station on my reef with a couple 200 watt panels mounted on my roof above the tank. I get decent runtime on just battery in the event of power outage and during the summer when heaters are not turning on much my tank runs on 100% solar during the day mitigating some cost of running the tank.
