What the FridgeGuard actually runs
The load profiles every comparison on the site is scored on, computed for this unit alone: energy needed against the usable tank after inverter losses, and whether the inverter holds and starts the biggest single load.

03 · From the verdicts
Who it is for, and when a rival won instead
Each line is lifted from a written matchup where it decided the verdict, and links to the page it came from. Repeated across many matchups means it is the unit’s signature, not one author’s opinion.
Buy the FridgeGuard if…
Outages are short and the fridge is the only thing on it.
You need to lift it. 23.2 lb against 43.43.
You'd rather keep the $170 and accept half the battery.
A rival won when…
Outages where you live run through the night. It's the one sized for the 8-hour blackout here.
You want a second appliance backed up too, from the second outlet and the 1,800W inverter.
You'll recharge from panels during a long outage. 1,000W of solar input against 500W.

How to read this
- Usual is the price the unit carried most of the time, tested for how long it held rather than how often we looked. A weekend promotion cannot move it.
- Best is the lowest price we have read on the store itself. Typed coupon codes, member-only prices and marketplace listings are not counted; anything applied automatically at checkout is.
- A gap in the line is a day we could not read a price. We never draw across one, and we never show the store’s own “was” price.

50 days read
Read from the maker’s store twice a day since September 13. “Usual” is the price it carried on the most days; the 90-day low is the lowest we read in that window; a gap is a day we could not read. The store’s own crossed-out “was” price is never used.

Will the Jackery FridgeGuard go on sale for Black Friday?
Price to beat $729Nobody knows until Jackery moves, but in 50 days we have tracked it, it has never been discounted, so any real cut would be a first. We read the store twice a day, and the moment it drops it shows on our Black Friday deals page.

Weighted read
100% positive weighted · corpus 51% · above the norm
Raw counts reward whoever writes most, and people write when something breaks. Here each report is weighted by what the complaint costs a buyer (a failure outranks an app gripe) and by its evidence (a measured owner report outranks a shopper’s opinion), then compared with every report in the corpus.

Questions people ask
Can the Jackery FridgeGuard run a refrigerator through the night?
It depends on the fridge. In the 8-hour blackout modelled here, a fridge at a steady 150W for eight hours plus a router, lights and a phone, the FridgeGuard covers about half and the FridgePower covers all of it. Most fridges cycle on and off and draw less, so check the yearly kWh on your fridge's energy label.
Do the FridgePower and FridgeGuard have USB ports?
No. Both have AC outlets only, two on the FridgePower and one on the FridgeGuard. Neither has USB or a 12V car outlet.
