> Backup Power Guide. “The Backup Power Guide dataset.” Updated 2026-11-01. https://backuppowerguide.com/data/
Fields: id, name, brand, tier, priceLow, priceHigh, score, bestFor, url, plus every spec column in the table above.

## Where the data comes from
Every row is compiled from manufacturer specifications, certification registries and published pricing, then checked against at least two sources — the same process behind our [reviews](https://backuppowerguide.com/generators/). Price ranges are typical street prices at the time of the last update, not live offers, and product specs change without notice. See [how we research](https://backuppowerguide.com/how-we-research/) for the full method.
