Gear Review
We are very impressed with our Jackery. It's never let us down and we can't find any faults with it.
At home, we use it for backup whenever there is a power outage. We can be anywhere out in the yard and still be able to plug something in without having to worry about running any extension cords.
We take it with us whenever we go exploring the backroads. Just in case we need it and we always take it with us when we go camping.
A person can charge it up while driving using the car plugin, plug it in at home or hook it up to portable solar panels.
Weighs 7.5 pounds, so it's not that heavy. Doesn't take up much room, so it's easy to store. Doesn't make any noise. Easy to carry with its handle.
The display lets you know the percentage of charge it has so you know what you have to use. It also tells you the input and output your using. There is a 12v plugin, input plugin to charge the unit, two USB plugins and 110V 200w plugin.
Compatible with up to 200W devices, 400W surge. 290 Watt-Hours of storage capacity.
Fully charged this unit can:
- Power your car fridge up to 19 hours
- Power your 32" TV about 4.3 hours
- Recharge your CPAP machine about 6 ~ 21 hours
- Recharge your smart phone 29 times
- Recharge your laptop 4 times
- Recharge your camera about 52 times
- Recharge your drone about 6 times
To fully charge the Jackery takes:
- About 6 hours by power outlet
- About 6.5 hours by car charger
- About 7 hours by 60W solar panel (depending on weather)
Both of us are very pleased with the Jackery Explorer 290 Portable Power Station. We recommend this product. A definite thumbs up! 👍
