Great for power failures!
I just received my Nexus Escape and put it to a quick test. I used my fully charged 2.5 Ego battery with the Nexus and plugged in a 100 Watt incadesant light bulb. The battery was dead in 57 minutes. I than placed an LED 17 Watt (100 watt equal.),120-60hz, 5000K, 1600 lumens bulb on the Nexus and it lasted 5 hours and 20 minutes! My last test was to plug in two(2) LED 9.8 watt (75 watt equal.), 120-60hz, 5000K, 815 lumens bulbs to the same battery(after fully recharging). The battery lasted for 4 hours and 3 minutes. Obviously the best option for lighting is using LED bulbs!

Exceeded Expectations
We like to camp at a campground near the ocean that has no power to plug in to. We have generators but last year the county changed the ordinance to 8pm for all gens to be off. I purchased the Nexus Escape due to a review I watched and the fact I already have Ego batteries. The Nexus worked great for our needs. It powered the kid’s electronics and out 50” tv with no issues at all. I ended up purchasing a second Nexus so multiple items can run or charge. We love this item and continue to use it. It even powered up my travel size Traeger smoker/bbq. We use a 7.5 amp and a 5.0 battery mostly but our 2.5 works great as well.

It's not 120 V
I really wanted to make this work because of it's compact size and portability, and it does work for small electronics that has an AC/DC adapter or charger, such as laptops, cameras, etc... But, I just don't like the fact that EGO is purposely misrepresenting it's voltage ratings.
I measured the AC voltage from the EGO at 75 VAC, see attached image, which is a far cry from the 120V that's being advertised. This seems to be a common theme with other people reporting 80 VAC, although I only got 75 V.
I gave it 3 stars because while it is useful for the application I needed it for, which was to power a Canon HF-G20 camcorder for a few hours, it does have limited usage.

Not great for electronics
I bought this hoping to use with my laptop and small projector (100W max). However when i plug either power brick in, the power brick starts to make a huming noise even without tue device being on. When the devices are turned on the buzz becomes much more audible. Im guessing this has to do with an insufficient output from the device, so even if your wattage is under the 150 max it may not work for you. Prob great for recharging phones but im not willing to put my more expensive electronics at risk. Will return it and look into other options. Too bad, this could have beem great since I already hve the batteries, hoping for a updated version to address these issues.

Works just as expected
Works as advertised. I tested it on a Dell 24" monitor using an Ego 2.5 Ah battery. It ran quiet and problem free for 6 hours. I think it is great that it has both an AC outlet as well as 2 USB outlets. Should be very useful in a power outage or when in need of some power on the go.
It does not seem to work well with variable speed AC motors like a 3 speed fan, but read the manual and limit your use to the intended items "from a tablet while out and about, your lamps in the house, even your TV in a power outage" and you should be happy with the results.

Use Indoors Only?
Great product...BUT looks like one should forget buying it if he/she plans to use for camping, hiking, at the beach, etc. Why? Because the user manual on page 11 has a BOLD warning: "This device is intended to be used indoors only. Do not use outdoors under any conditions." Wow! Not what I expected when I read other online reviews or videos. (See "Tailgaters Dream on YouTube.) I love all my EGO products and normally it's 5 Stars across the board...but have to subtract at least 1 because of the "indoor only" warning which only evidences itself after buying the product.

What a game-changer!!
I was so excited to get this that I purchased an additional battery just to have on hand. Let me tell you, it did NOT disappoint! This will be great for power outages and all of our hiking trips. Nothing like catching up on our favorite shows under the star light! My wife has fallen in love with the Escape, too. She's using it for climate control at our grand kids' sporting events. To be honest, having a fan during a mid-afternoon baseball game in August is a life-saver! We actually since had to get another Escape just so she could have her own. With as handy as this is, wouldn't be surprised if we added another before the end of the year.

Theoretical run time calculation
For a fully charged 2.0AmpHr 56V battery, calculated available WattHr = 2x56 =112 WattHr.
Assuming 85% inverter efficiency, available WattHr = 112*.85=95.2WattHr.
If you have a 65W device (a laptop for example), it will run around 95.2WattHr / 65W = 1.46 HR or 88 minutes.
For a larger battery, calculation is the same except you just change the 2 to 2.5 or 7 in the first calculation above.
The above only serves as an theoretical estimate to give you an idea of how long a particular battery size will last for a give device with known and constant power consumption.
If you wonder why 150W is not part of the calculations above, it is because it only indicates the maximum output current draw is 150W/120V = 1.25A. This current has nothing to do with the calculation above (but it is important to understand as it limits the device that can be plugged in to the inverter)
Hope this makes sense.
