Nice design, good price, quick shipping. A must have for any travels and off-grid weekends. Quality build. Easy to use and very dependable. I have several other Goal Zero power banks for other uses.
I've been using this for work travel. It never gave me a full 100W, but I was still able to charge my laptop on lower wattage. I could work with that. It's fickle on when it accepts a charge at all (the 60W port is more consistent than the 100W port). I can charge my laptop from near dead to full but it takes the full power bank. Plugging in my iphone 13 overnight, I get a half phone charge and the sherpa has gone from 100% to 50-60% remaining. When it's below 20%, it depletes RAPIDLY. I've only used the AC option 1 time to run my CPAP machine, so I don't have any consistent metrics to share.
I love the Sherpa, I have used two of the 1st gen Sherpa for years, and they are amazing, I have been excited to upgrade to the latest, and the wait was well worth it. I like having the option to charge from USB-C or the 8mm port, and power my laptop with one cord instead of having different adapters has been nice... I was hoping to see a pure-sine inverter with the newer version, but it's fine overall. Pro's: Versatile, powerful, compact, sexy (I mean seriously, there's no other mini solar generator that comes close to this sexiness) Cons: Modified Sine-wave inverter

Purchased this new Sherpa power pack as a replacement/additional power storage unit. As with the older unit works flawlessly and daisy chains quickly and flawlessly supplying needed voltage. Great new features and worthwhile investment
I bought this for weekend camping and realized that this iz great for travel. I have a flexsolar 40w flexibal solar panel and can charge this up in about 3 hours. I reallized that the Sherpa 100 AC is also allowable on airlines. Can charge my S23 ultra rapidly 4 or 5 times. Will charge an ipad twice. Have not used the ac outlet yet.Also glad that Goal zero can ship to Hawaii.
I bought this charger thinking I'd get about 8 charges out of it on my cell phone like it states. Well after testing this power bank I actaully only got 2.8 charges. I have a standard Samsung smart phone. Nothing big and no big battery on it. It would be nice if this stated data is more accurate.
