Good price for a power station like this with a modern long-life LFP battery (2500+ cycles). Compared to the 200-500 cycles you get from traditional lead acid batteries.
These were previously $749, now $549 is the normal price.

  When do we decide to start using these as UPS' for a homelab setup?? Cheaper than most as well…

    i would still use a UPS with drivers for reliability.
    https://www.bluettipower.com/pages/user-guides

    UPS Bypass Mode: Connect the EB3A with the AC power and the ‘UPS’ will be on display. Then turn on the AC output.
    When on this mode, the AC power will directly support the loads on AC output ports and charge the EB3A.

    The AC inverter is disabled under UPS Bypass Mode.
    The unit won’t enter this mode unless connecting with AC power AND turning on the AC output.

    Good point, these do have a "UPS Mode" too.
    I guess there is no comms though, so no clean shutdown on power loss.
    Traditional UPS manufacturers don't have many LFP products yet and they are pricey.

  Surge power - 1,200W Does it mean I can use it to power a 600-700W microwave in a camping?

    It's likely may not work, the surge or 'Power Lifting' feature does this by decreasing the voltage.
    It is recommended only for resistive loads and likely not good for the electronics in a microwave.
