The differences that matter

  • Continuous output, 300 W vs 700 W → a resistive appliance between 300 and 700 W runs only on the second.
  • Capacity, 288 Wh vs 448 Wh → at a 100 W load, about 2.9 hours against 4.5.
  • Maximum charge power, 330 W vs 580 W → the second fills up faster from the wall.
  • Weight, 4.13 kg vs 6.7 kg → the first is 2.5 kg lighter to carry every time you move it.
