  • Extremely portable, useful for trips just out and about!
Style: Portable Power Station 240
I bought this item 12/2/2019 and I really wanted to write a review even though I haven’t fully tested it yet. I will update this review once I do all the other things I want it to do. But for now here we go. I bought the Jackery 240 because we lost power for several days in NJ. I was tired of waiting for my husband to fix our broken gas generator. I wanted a rechargeable generator that can 12 volt appliances like little cooking thing or a low powered heater. I boiled eggs/heated food with a sterno cooking thing. It worked but I wanted other alternatives. I know there is a lot of other alternatives for cooking (like propane stuff, wood stove etc) and heat (I used Hot Hands all sizes) and the hubby has all these equipment. But I think he is saving all his equipment for the ultimate doomsday 0_0 and I’d have to ask permission to use them. So I’m like to heck with this I’m going to get my own stuff – something not too exorbitant and not a repeat of equipment he already has. I am supposed to be the helpless female (LOL) but I guess when you have kids (or when you’re tired of waiting to be rescued) you gonna help yourself. Ok that’s my lifestory don’t downgrade my review its down below LOLLL I have the Honeywell HeatBud 250 Watt Personal Ceramic Heater, Black (HCE100). This heater has a low setting – 170 watts and high setting 250 watts. I tested it on both settings and it works! Of course it would be silly of me to use it just for that purpose. As a previous reviewer said, the heater sucked the power off the Jackery and I think it ran between 60-90 minutes. I don’t remember because I was watching TV and then then it just turned off LOL. The Jackery didn’t give me any warning that it was low battery. I also charged other items on the Jackery for 10 minutes before I tested the Honeywell which Im sure drained it a bit but I’m pretty sure it was at least 60 minutes or more before the Jackery was empty. I don’t think I’ll be using the Jackery for heating purposes as that would be such a waste of power. Guess it’ll still be the Hot Hands scenario for heat! But it’s nice to see that the Jackery can power the Honeywell Heatbud heater. So if someone’s hands is close to frostbite I can power on my Honeywell for 90 mins of heat. I also tested a smaller Lasko heater (which I returned actually). The Lasko heater was advertised as 200 watts. It was totally brand new and on first use it was using 240 watts + and the Lasko kept turning on and off. That went on for about 5-10 mins. Then the Lasko began to stabilize and pulling a regular 200watts+ from the Jackery and stayed on. So my assumption was that at first use/brand new the Lasko was trying to heat itself up (??) My Honeywell Heatbud didn’t do that but then again the Honeywell Heatbud was not brand new. But anyway, I’m not too pleased with the Lasko especially as it doesn’t have the tip-over safety feature and lower heat settings. So if I *had* to use a heater with the Jackery it would be the Honeywell Heatbud. I bought a mini hotpot from Amazon that has two power settings 200 watt and 600 watt. I will update my review once I use it either tonight or over the weekend. I am curious to see if the 200 watt setting will work on the Jackery and how long it takes to boil water at the lower setting. I have a review for the mini hotpot somewhere in case you’re curious. But my plan is to use the mini hotpot to boil eggs/heat soups/coffee/chocolate milk for the family faster than the sterno stove (during power outages) and when we go on sporting events several days in a hotel – things like that. The next major test I did (which I would definitely be using the Jackery more this way than any other) was plugging in my Wagan Thermoelectric Cooler/Warmer in the DC outlet – cigarette lighter) My sons had a swim meet competition and we always have hot food cooked. I would use the Wagan to keep it warm for them. In the past I would power the Wagan with my Honda CR-V cigarette lighter. But whenever I turn my car off it cuts the power to the Wagan. Also, there is a warning that in order to avoid the Wagan from malfunctioning I must power off the Wagan then shut my car AND/OR plug the Wagan to the car before powering it on. So with the Jackery 240 I don’t need to worry about any of that! So at 100% I plugged in my Wagan and powered on the Jackery and the Wagan respectively about 730AM in the morning with my 3 already hot spaghetti inside. I never turned off the Wagan or the Jackery. About 5 hours or so later I checked on the Jackery and it was about 40% power remaining! Cool! Since using an electric cooler (and soon my Alpicool compressor fridge/freezer) is mostly what I’ll be using the Jackery for (as well as the mini hotpot if it works) – and the minor charging of other electronics I’d leave this review here for now. My husband uses a CPAP machine – Resmed Airsense 10. I read in the reviews that the Jackery can power this machine so that is cool. Although my husband says he can live without the CPAP since power outages (or vacations somewhere is temporary) I am unable to test this for myself. Since he gets mad if I nag him I won’t bother convincing him. But it’s good know that if need be the Jackery can power his CPAP machine if he ever decides to use it. In summary below are what I like, dislike, the items I used it for/tested with, final thoughts until my next update with other things I want to test it with. What I like: 1. Seems durable and high quality - doesn’t look and feel like it will break easily 2. Light and portable – carrying it around is no biggie for 5ft me 3. 12V DC outlet works (I heard that it gives the max power even when battery is low) it worked well with my 12volt thermo electric cooler 4. You can power and charge the machine at the same time (haven’t check this yet) 5. Bought it at the lower price during an Amazon Lightning Deal (yay!) What I dislike: 1. Wish it had a USB-C outlet (that’s what my tablet and phone use) 2. Slow charging – in the AC outlet I saw it pulls in 39 watts Final Thoughts: This is my first “solar” generator. But I did research a lot - or should I say Amazon reviews and Youtube research LOL. Jackery seemed to come up as being reliable and not too expensive like Goalzero. Maybe just maybe if I did the whole off grid living and conversion van life I would get Goalzero 1000 as well but I’m not. And I don’t want to throw my money away. The consensus seems that Jackery is a solid brand and worth it. I plan to keep my Jackery 240 in my car as I drive 64 miles one way to work. I like the Jackery 240 so much that I may just buy the 500 watt version if it goes on sale again. It’s back to $500 right now. But anyway, I’m still researching and maybe I’m getting carried away. But I want the ability to higher wattage appliances and/or charge a lot more. I like the previous reviewers advice of having two of these. Since they recharge slowly one can be used while the other is recharging – perfect! But $$$. I usually like to get two powerful items. But the 240 is only 6 lbs while the 500 is 13 lbs. So I think it’s a wise decision for me to have a Jackery 240 and Jackery 500. Now if they come out with a Jackery 1000 I might get that instead. Jackery are you coming out with a 1000??? I recently purchased a Rockpals 100 watt folding solar panel which should be delivered today. (Yep I’m getting carried away!!!) I want to be able to charge my Jackery 240 while I’m at lunch by putting it on the roof of my car. I did not get the Jackery branded solar panels because it was too expensive for me. The Jackery 60 watt panel – though it went on sale – can only charge the Jackery alone. The Jackery 100 watt panel - which I REALLY liked and wanted to get since it can power other things as well - was $299! Since I plan to buy another Jackery (either 500 or 1000 if they make it in the future) I need to purchase wisely. Appliances I tested with: 1. Honeywell Heatbud 2. Honeywell Desktop Air Purifier 3. Wagan Thermoelectric Warmer/Cooler (using 12v, didn’t try the AC plug) 4. Android Tablets & Phones 5. Rav Battery Bank 6. Rechargeable Flashlights & Lamps Appliances I will test with soon: 1. Coolio Thermoelectric Warmer/Cooler 2. Alpicool C20 Fridge & Freezer 3. Rockpals 100 Watt Folding Solar Panel 4. Acer Chromebook 5. Dell Laptop 6. Modem & Router ... show more

  • A product so good I wrote a school paper about it
Style: Portable Power Station 240
This paper was written as an example about usability. Jackery Explorer 1000 Switching to sustainability is a key decision in almost every business’s lifespan. The purpose of this document is to recommend the Jackery Explorer 1000 for your business’s needs of remote power. This unit is the largest that Jackery offers, and as they are the name in the portable power station business to know, this is the best of the best. Through our rigorous tests, we observed multiple different brands of power stations, including Yeti, Rockpals, and others, and this Jackery was the clear winner in most of the results with the most consistent output and ease of use. The Situation We at TechCon know that your team often runs mobile operating stations when working outside of the office. At those stations, you need a power source. Currently, you’re using a gas generator that honestly is overkill for two guys and a coffee maker. Besides the constant need to fill up, gas generators produce pollutants, not to mention the noise. Depending on the brand they could be very unreliable, and you don’t want to run it inside. The Unit This Jackery unit solves all of those problems. This large unit can run lights, laptop chargers, coffee pots, and everything else that a small team could need. At 1000 watts, it may not be as heavy-duty as some large gas generators, but it makes up for it with portability and ease of use. The 1000 model has 3 AC outlets on the front, as well as a few USB options. Next to each of the grouped outlets is a switch that allows you to turn off the charging port. This allows you to stop the battery drain without unplugging the wiring, or you can run it as a central control. To charge the Jackery station, there are multiple options as well. For some devices and usage times with this unit, see Figure 2 below. The Jackery line of power banks can be charged by a wall socket, a vehicle’s 12v outlet, or even solar panels. This combination of possibilities means you will, hopefully, never be out of options for power. This battery can be recharged by two 100 watt solar panels(also sold by Jackery) in around 8 hours. So it’s safe to say that on a sunny day, you could charge the battery and use it at the same time, then still have a full charge at the end of the day(Figure 3). It will charge a little faster through a building’s wall outlet, but slower from a car 12v outlet. Not all power banks have a solar charging option, and this is key when working remotely. A few devices that the Jackery cannot support would be large appliances such as a hairdryer or an electric stovetop. It is not made to produce enough wattage for that sort of use, but it can power many other necessities easily. That being said, it can power 8 devices at a time, such as a computer, a USB fan, LED lights, a camera charger, and a USB speaker, as examples. For your specific situation, this unit can keep your two agent’s laptops and phones charged all day for maximum productivity while decreasing your carbon footprint. Weighing only 22 pounds, this is a lightweight solution to power needs when there isn’t a wall outlet or car charger nearby, and can be carried almost anywhere in the world. The ergonomic handle on top gives the Jackery a lunchbox feel and balance, which is fitting because it prepares you for the full day. This would be ideal for when you send a team on the road to meet clients, or just when the power goes out at the home office. The best thing about this unit, compared to a gasoline generator, is that you can use it indoors without fearing the airborne toxins. This product does not come with the solar panels, but they are sold separately. The Jackery folding panels are specially made to work perfectly with their power banks, but other options have been matched up to work as well. The Jackery units have a solar controller on the inside of the unit, so it bypasses the need for a custom-built system that most RV or van dwellers need to build for mobile power. The Tests Our tests of the Jackery and the other brands consisted of day-in and day-out draining and recharging of the battery packs. They were tested in high and low temperatures, during sunshine and moonlight hours. Not every data point was a significant difference between all devices tested. By the end of the five different studies(Portability, Rechargability, Usability, Sustainability, and Power Supplied), the Jackery Explorer 1000 was the clear class leader. While the Yeti did charge a little faster, the Jackery weighs a full 15 pounds lighter. And while the Rockpals unit had a better capacity, it took an extra 6 hours to charge, which would put it at 14 hours for a full charge. The differences were small but clear. The Conclusion Our recommendation is that you purchase one of the Jackery Explorer 1000 units to replace your gasoline generators immediately so that you may start to see the cost savings and usefulness. This all-in-one unit is a piece of American-designed ingenuity that will quickly become the tool you didn’t know you needed. This Jackery Explorer 1000 become your choice for mobile power solutions, whether your team needs it out on the go, or at home during an emergency. I know that after you touch this for the first time, it will give you confidence, not only in the company but also in the 2 year warranty that comes with the unit. ... show more
