Something that'll run a lap top, monitor and docking station for about 16hrs.

Thanks much.

Will probably need one with around 2,000 watt hours. Bigger the better.

Best would probably be EcoFlow delta 2 max.

If you want to try diy, battery hookup is selling sleeveless 33140s lfp 15ah for $3 each right now. They have heavy tabs that can be soldered(safely?) with enough rosin and a big iron. 48 of those and you have 2kwh and 5-10kw.
I’ve been working with them on and off for a bit, replacing old speaker bats so I can use its 38120s in my mower, motorizing my reel mower, and finishing up a 15lb waterproof tube motor. So far, so good.

EcoFlow delta 2 max.

I'd say the new Ecoflow delta 3 plus is good but its 1024wh. The Delta 2 Max is getting a bit aged but may not matter for his needs.
About the only other option from the big boys is the Anker Solix F2000.

You need to figure out how much wattage you are using, just saying "a laptop" is stupid.

I have a Bluetti that’s about 700 watt hrs. I like their stuff and they have a sale going on right now. Their power stations are passive so you can charge and use at the same time. Mine will run all the stuff you mentioned. I use it at Tailgate to run TV and phone charger. I run a 180 watt solar panel with it.

I bought the Delta 3+ and smart generator Tuesday. Expecting delivery today. Can't wait to try it out.

Also bought an Anker F2000 just to see which one we like the best. And to keep in the other house.

Was looking at these EC units a while back. They get great reviews.
EC ecoflow

OT Baller over here!
I kinda want the Anker F3800 or whatever but I'm not that rich.

Also, I have some smaller EcoFlow and Ankers and I must admit, I prefer EcoFlow strictly because of their app settings. EcoFlow has the "Energy Management" section within the app that allows you to set a threshold of when you wanna wall charge it vs. solar charge it.

I set mine to 40% so that my 1 portable solar panel (200w) can charge it daily when it's sunny. Then when it hits 40%, it wall charges to always have a lil in the tank.

Wish Anker would add something similar to their app soon.
