any recs for low-idle-draw power station?

Hey all, I pulled my emergency power station out of storage for a recent storm prep. Hooked up a motion‑sensor LED hallway light (around 20 W) plus my router for the security cams (another 30 W), total draw barely hit 50 W. By morning, the battery had lost a solid 20% even with almost nothing running.

Looks like it’s time for an upgrade. Anyone switched to a station with genuinely minimal parasitic draw? Which models actually deliver on low‑idle performance in real life? Appreciate any firsthand insights!
