Best value for the money as far as I am concerned
Having had several similar items from a GoalZero Yeti 1250 to a Weiyi 100W I have to say for the money this is by far the best value.
When I got it, the cigarette style charging adapter broke in shipping and the seller quickly replaced it.
I have tested it, first running a modem/router for over 5 hours while also charging some phones. It still had a good charge so charged a tablet, ran the light on it for hours and had a hard time running it down. I don't think the charge percentage meter is always accurate and wish they had used some different connectors (I have bought adapters) but aside from that it does everything it's supposed to do and does it very well.
I've been able to hook up a solar panel to charge it (using some adapters) and didn't go through the process but seems to work fine.
It ran my well pump, but just tested it for a moment, might run my fridge but if I need to I use the Yeti for that, having more wattage capacity.
I didn't test the UPS capability which will let you charge it and run AC through it at the same time, automatically switching to the battery power if the AC power goes out but don't doubt it will work. Also did not test the car battery boost capability since I do not have a car with a dead battery, but if that works it's a plus.
Can't comment on the longevity but without moving parts do not see a reason it would be likely to fail.
Might buy another, nice package with the lights, multiple connections, etc.

Excellent movie... but be prepared for some confusion
If you like movies that make you think... about what life is, and maybe what the difference is between life, dreams and imagination then I think you would like this movie. If you prefer a story that is obvious and sequential then you may not like it.
As a rule I don't personally care for Tim Robbins, but he does well in this part. Interesting editing and videography... and very well done.
If you do like this movie then you might also like a more recent movie called "Stay" and one called "The Jacket" as well as David Lynch films.
To me there is no distinct difference between "reality" and a "dream"... if you also feel somewhat that way you might like all of these. (As well as writings by Jorge Luis Borges)
An ancient oriental philosopher once said "Last night I was a man dreaming I was a butterfly, today am I a butterfly dreaming I am a man?"

best of the best
2 of 2 found this helpful I have been doing photo/video since the 70's and have had a lot of cameras. For most of that time I was a Canon fan (and not knocking Canon at all, they have great products) but then some years ago fund the Panasonic GS500 video camera which was one of the earlier "prosumer" cameras which had native wide-screen and some other great features. Right now I own 9 Panasonic cameras, each one with features the others do not have.
Before the X920 I owned (still do) the previous model X900M and I thought I'd never want to upgrade. I also had the TM900 before that... all excellent video cameras.
I use a Panasonic 50" 3DHDTV for viewing the output and the video quality of all the above has been described as "stunning" and that it is. These rival anything you will see on broadcast TV in my opinion.
I also have a couple cameras that can shoot 4K (this one cannot) but in my opinion (and that of others who have more knowledge of the math behind it...CNN for one) 4K is more hype than anything else pushing up the prices of TVs. Your eye can only discern so much detail. In order to see the difference between HD and 4K you would need a huge screen and need to be looking at them up so close that you'd never view from that distance. Generally if you see a 4K TV vs. a HDTV in a store and think the 4K looks better it may well be other reasons than the 4K... there are other factors which can improve a picture. Do some research without the sales person.
I bought the X920 because of a few small feature changes over the X900M. It has backlit sensors making low light performance even better. It has some small added "creative" features and you can control it with a smartphone (I preferred the included remote with the X900 myself). It connects via Wi-Fi
The O.I.S./hybrid stabilization with all these is great, each one perhaps slightly improved over the previous.
The X900 has a 32GB hard drive, the X920 requires a SD card.
The X920 takes 20.4 Megapixel stills where the X900 takes 16 Megapixels, both have a flash for that.
The X920 adds IA+ which is an automatic setting which still allows you some control over lighting, white balance, etc. while leaving most of the thinking to the camera. X900 has the IA which works really well.
These are not for the "casual" user really who just wants always to point and shoot although these can do a great job under most conditions using IA.
If you want to see output search youtube for videos shot with these (although youtube degrades them). I know professional people who gave up equipment costing $3000-4000 or more for this camera, and I suspect it may not be upgraded many more times because there is not a huge market, but having said that I have seen all the aforementioned cameras increase in cost if you can find one for sale new.
Another reason I chose this as my next camera is that the 3D lens attachment, batteries, etc. can still be used.
If I had to say something I don't like about the X920 it's just that some of the menus, buttons, etc. have been reassigned meaning I have to be careful which one I am using and adjust my thinking but I guess this is to be expected.
I suggest looking at reviews on BHPhotovideo since many serious photographers shop there.
