How these guides work
Each guide runs a fixed set of technical checks against the Actual.fyi verified hardware database. A product only appears if it clears every requirement — capacity, output, surge rating, and Verification Score. Nothing is ranked by popularity or sponsored placement. If a product qualifies, it shows up. If it doesn't, it doesn't.
