Quick answers
Common questions
How do you decide which one to recommend?
Each comparison sets the published specifications side by side, works out the difference in runtime, charging and output, and then says which station suits which buyer. Often there isn't one winner: the right choice depends on how you'll use it.
Is a brand comparison or a model comparison more useful?
Start with a model comparison if you have two stations shortlisted. Read a brand comparison if you're choosing an ecosystem, for example because you plan to add batteries or solar panels later.
What if the pair I want isn't here?
Use the all-models table on this page to line up any two stations, then open each review for runtimes, limits and who it suits.
Want the full picture on one model?
Every station we compare has its own review with specs, runtimes, limits and a rating.
