Hey guys, I highly recommend watching my new comparison video I did of this vs the Jackery 1000 Plus. Here’s link ua-cam.com/video/8rELNuAaZ60/v-deo.html
I can plug my travel trailer into my Jackery 2000 pro plus and run EVERYTHING including the A/C and microwave which you can't unless you use shorepower. It made me very happy plus I can recharge my Jackery with my solar panels at the same time. I love Jackery.
@@TheTruthO9Buy a cigarette lighter inverter for AC charging OR buy a cigarette lighter plug cord that terminates to the same barrel plug type as the solar charge input ports accept.
Thank you so much for this clear demonstration of Jackery 1000 2v! What a huge help to me! And SO much better than trying to figure it all out from the manual. 🙏🏼
I have an older model Jackery 300 and it was a life saver recently during a major multi-day power outage in my area a few weeks ago. My only regret is I didn’t have another Jackery…at least 1000kw. I’ll be watching for sales on these on Amazon…
Huge improvement over the previous gen Jackery range. The app function is arguably a game changer in which other brands like Bluetti, Ecoflow will follow
I'm a fan of other brands that you have reviewed but did get the Jackery 240 Explorer that came bundled with one of the 40 watt solar panels that outputs also to USB-C and the their regular solar output. I am impressed that Jackery finally started offering power stations with LFP batteries. I can use that little panel to charge up my tool batteries and the Little Jackery with the panel was cheaper than the 60 watt PV panel that Ryobi offers for the same purpose except it only outputs 30 watts thru the USB C port. I really like your real world testing with actual appliances that could expect to use. Great review!
Thanks John, yeah I wasn’t a huge fan of the old Jackery power stations but really like the newer ones with the lithium iron phosphate batteries. Jackery has become one of my favs
I literally just got my Jackery the other day. Just trying to charge it now. But I’m glad is can be used for all those things since I have a 6 year old and an 18 month old and I love being prepared for emergencies
@@TolbersCamping What's so kewl about this one is that it can be used as a UPS. There is a lot of value in that even for non campers. Looking forward to next advancement on your channel. Take care of yourself, Matt...
Just got one of these Explorer 1000 v2's. It runs my full sized refrigerator, and that takes 7% per hour. So theoretically, it'll run the refrigerator for 14.28 hours. I'm looking forward to using it to make my refrigerator fully solar powered after I get some solar panels to go with it, and recharge it during the day. That will take a nice bite out of my electric bill! It'll also prevent me from throwing away $400-$500 worth of spoiled food when (not if) we have another week+ long power outage from a damned hurricane! Great stuff.
Thanks for the tips! I just ordered mine from Lowe’s yesterday. I got mine for power outages. There’s been many times during non weather, the power has been out for up to 10 hours from someone hitting a pole or a transformer blowing. I watch a lot of vanlifer videos and jackery has always stuck out to me the most. And Nikki Delventhal UA-cam channel is the reason why I chose mine. Subscribed to you as well now! 😀
This was a great review. You literally covered everything and answered all of my questions. Straight, no fluff, to the point, and authentic. I especially liked your authenticity. Thanks a lot
Thank you very much for this review. It was complete and really helped me to decide to buy this product. I think it was very well done and edited and packed all the information into a review only about 15 minutes long.
I'm so glad I found this channel. You seem to be a very nice young man I've been thinking about buying something like this for when we lose power. We have a gas generator for the house freezer and refrigerator, but I think I want something for smaller appliances. Thank you for reviewing products, it's so helpful
I enjoy all your videos. I like these portable power reviews because someday I'll get one. For now, that one is just too expesive. My old propane stove still works great for making coffee. But don't stop making videos! Looking forward to the tiny cabin video. Stay safe out there
Yeah even if you’re not able to afford one quite yet, learning about them now so you can make a good purchase decision in the future is good. Propane is definitely good for making coffee. Tiny cabin adventures coming soon
I have the Jackery Pro 1000. Pretty happy with it. My next purchase will be 2000 watts when they get smaller and lighter. I also have a Oupes 1200 watt that I also like. My problem is finding solar panel that last. I’d like to see some panel reviews.
Thank you for that review. After watching your video, I clicked on your link. I just bought the 2000 pro jackery. It was half off 1,999 to 999. I’ve never seen that price drop when it comes to jackery.
I'm guessing the older gen Jackery model will hopefully drop in price especially for those of us looking for portable power station going into winter whether at home or outdoor use.
Thanks for this video, you made it easy to understand. I bought this same Jackery and I am very pleased with it. Glad I found your video, helpful information. 👍👍 Just subscribed.
WoW. Thats a 750.00 high dollar unit. Well worth the money if i had it. I will have to buy something i can afford like the Jackery 240 Explorer. Good video!
It’s on sale for $600 right now, but yeah power stations aren’t cheap lol. Getting what you can afford is all that matters and upgrading when you can. Thanks for watching, God bless
Jackery are doing a Black Friday deals at the mo in the uk 6th - 19th November 2024. I have just bought the V2 1000 and 200w solar panel for £799. The V2 1000 on its own is £499. A bargain 😊
Yes, just get one that’s rated under 1500w. I never use a hair dryer obviously, but that’s actually a good item to use for testing in the future so thanks for the idea.
I tried to make it a little fun lol. I’m just about to start traveling for my videos in the United Stated, but want to go to different countries eventually
Well done bro. I was wondering how this would perform with many of these appliances. Should have tried the full fridge! Way to flex with the bathroom cam... Hahaha
Hey Brother 💪..I love the videos..Car camping... electric bike trips with your boy and solo...Keep it up brother ☯️🇺🇲🪞 Lead by Example🌄...It's God's Training Season 🙏💪..Great review 🫡💯
I really enjoy all of these power station reviews and appreciate you doing them. I have a back injury and can’t lift much weight so the larger units that you seem to have no problem lifting are definitely out of the question for me. I’m not supposed to lift over 15 lbs until after I have the surgery to place the rods in my spine. How much does this Jackery weigh please?
I found the weight on Amazon. It’s a much more manageable weight than a lot that you have reviewed. I think this would be a great option for car camping in my SUV and being able to spend some time enjoying nature and God’s beauty around me. Thanks again for your thorough and informative reviews. May God Bless and keep you safe. 🙏🏻✝️
Hey Karen, sorry to hear about your back and praying for healing. It weighs 24lbs which like you said is much lighter than many of the power stations I’ve reviewed. This is honestly about the perfect size for car camping. It’ll power all your smaller devices and run led lights easily. And having a 1500w inverter it’ll power almost any larger device you’d need to plug into it while camping. I’d recommend getting 1 or 2 of their 200w solar panels if you plan to be off grid for more than a couple days. I’m praying for your back and that your car camping adventures go great!
@@TolbersCamping, thank you so much. All prayers are greatly appreciated. I am ready to start living and enjoying life and my family again. God Bless. 🙏🏻✝️
Disregard my question, I posted it early in the video ☺️ thank you so much for addressing it! 👍🏼👍🏼 -Darn, I was going to buy this one over others because I thought it DIDN'T have an app. Is there a way to turn off wireless functions?-
Tolbers! happy Monday my brother in Christ. These review video's are where you shine. Also, will you be entering the 2028 Olympic Games as America's break dancer?
What Unit would you recommend if I want to set up lights in my storage unit and also able to set up lights at campsites? Thanks in Advance love the videos
Super glad you liked it! I do my best to show, explain and do a basic testing demonstration. This is definitely a great option for most. Kind of the middle ground where it’ll power almost anything you could need without being to large and heavy that it’s not very portable.
Yeah solar generators aren’t super cheap, but I’ve been trying to show more reasonably priced options lately. Praying you’re able to save up a little cash and get one in the near future
If I ever kill my v1, I will replace it with this. But why, did they take the Anderson port away for charging. I use that primarily in my truck to keep my fridge running.
My Jackery, 1000 looks different than yours. Maybe you have an upgraded model? I thought it said to turn it off while you charge it, but I can't turn it off? Does it automatically stop when it's charged? Great information. Thank you!
I've had the Jackery 200-watt solar panel for only one month, having used it around 10 times, and one of the kickstands is already beginning to break off. I'm also unhappy that there is no kickstand in the center of the panel, only on the ends, because when set up the center always sags and doesn't face the sun the same way as the ends do, so you need to use something to prop the center up. I use a cynder block. Maybe Jackery will see this review and send me a new solar panel for my UA-cam video review which I plan to make soon. I contacted their marketing department two weeks ago and never received a reply, so I'm going to make a harshly critical video about Jackery. My advice is to purchase other brands like Bluetti or Oupes because you can't use other solar panels with a Jackery -- they make everything proprietary so that you're stuck using only their overpriced solar panels with their power stations!
I have the 2017 Jackery 1000, have had zero problems with it. Though it takes about 10 hours to charge up this model charges in 2 hours? wow, imagine how good they will be in under ten years...
Sump pumps can use a ton of power or have a large surge of power so it kind of depends on how many watts your sump pump uses. You may need a more powerful power station that has UPS mode
I’ve read every comment to try to decide whether to buy the jackery 1000v2. Right now oct 17th I can get the ac180 for 380.00 because of a late delivery issue or I can cancel my order and use the jackery $40 off coupon on amazon for the 1000v2 which would be 460.00. I am so torn because I would prefer the lighter weight of the jackery yet I would have to buy an adapter to use my bluetti 200 watt panels on the jackery. I can not find which unit uses more power just being on both on ac or dc which would be a consideration and if either one stays on when a car fridge is not drawing power. If anyone knows these things, I’d greatly appreciate the answer. Also at the quoted prices which unit do you think would be the most beneficial. I already own 1 ac180 and it’s a good unit just don’t know if the jackery would be better?
Yes you can just press the power button and the screen will turn off until you press it again. I don’t think light moisture like that would be an issue
So I have the little Jackery explorer 300, and I love it, and I used the link to buy the Jackery 1000 V2, and so far, for the most part, I love it, but I'm not able to charge it with my solar panels. I have two 100W Togo Power solar panels, 18V each, and when I plug them into the Jackery 1000 V2, there's no input charge showing. Is there a minimal voltage input charge for each of the solar panel inputs on the side? I thought I read that you can use two 100W panels to charge this. I am befuddled… Maybe I need to buy a connector to connect the two panels and push them into one of the charging ports. Do you know if this is required or not?
Hey, this version is not expandable. The 1000 plus is, I recommend watching my video where I show the difference between the two. Here’s link ua-cam.com/video/8rELNuAaZ60/v-deo.htmlsi=n-KIZeNi5cuAGz0r
This is no good for winter camping in a car then. In Canada, temperatures mid winter can be ,-40 celsius which is -40 Fahrenheit. But then there is probably no battery that can operate at that temperature.
I’d hope you don’t let it get down to -40 in your car lol, but yeah none of the power stations would operate at the cold of a temperature nor would hardly anything else.
The only answer that is helpful to me, is how long it can operate something like an electric hedgecutter for? I could buy cordless as my petrol machines come to the end of their life but corded are much cheaper & I have many other uses for a portable power station rather than use my small petrol generator. However, all the ads & info seem geared to good looking couples charging their phones or laptops whilst sitting in a field eating houmous & lettuce & drinking de caff. I can charge phones etc in my car or van (on the very rare occasions they need it). As for power outages, I get a few but again, it's how long do these things (any size) work for? Real time, real life info would be great to know.
Note to the uninformed, this unit will not power a standred toaster. It will power a 750w toaster, it will take 5 minutes to make toast but hey. Do some research,
I have a midland ppg1000 I paid over 1k for complete trash it has a gcfi outlet and is constantly going into ac error mode super annoying midland never responded to my warranty ticket and then they discontinued it. Only pros was the rugged case it came in minus that horrible.
Jackery customer service has a good reputation. I’ve had very good experience with them myself. Jackery is based in the USA so maybe that has something to do with it. Ecoflow customer service kinda mixed reviews when I looked at them. I chose Jackery because of customer service reputation and their power stations are super quiet whether in use or charging. Really nice if,you ever want to recharge in a library or cafe etc. Ecoflow sometimes more bang for the buck - but I’m glad I chose Jackery.

Yeah they are so useful and great for emergency situations.
This is what I like to see. Show me what I can’t see on the website. I already know the ports and what it is. Put it through the paces! Great vid.
Charging at slower speeds is much better for preserving the batteries long-term !!!
High speed charging should Only be used in emergency situations.
Most power stations have adjustable charge speeds. Generally you won’t need to use fast charging unless you forgot to charge it at night.
Great video love these power stations see you at the cabin in the next one

Would this model in UPS mode be what I’d need for having my sump pump into for an emergency back up situation?
Sump pumps can use a ton of power or have a large surge of power so it kind of depends on how many watts your sump pump uses. You may need a more powerful power station that has UPS mode
Figure 3-4 times the running wattage. This will surge to 3,000 peak watts so the continuous draw of your pump can only be 750-1,000 watts.
I’ve read every comment to try to decide whether to buy the jackery 1000v2. Right now oct 17th I can get the ac180 for 380.00 because of a late delivery issue or I can cancel my order and use the jackery $40 off coupon on amazon for the 1000v2 which would be 460.00. I am so torn because I would prefer the lighter weight of the jackery yet I would have to buy an adapter to use my bluetti 200 watt panels on the jackery. I can not find which unit uses more power just being on both on ac or dc which would be a consideration and if either one stays on when a car fridge is not drawing power.
If anyone knows these things, I’d greatly appreciate the answer. Also at the quoted prices which unit do you think would be the most beneficial. I already own 1 ac180 and it’s a good unit just don’t know if the jackery would be better?
For astro purpose. Can I turn the display off without the app? Do you think dew could be a problem regarding short circuit?
Yes you can just press the power button and the screen will turn off until you press it again. I don’t think light moisture like that would be an issue
Ignorant about solar charging here..
Can you use any brand solar panel to charge these batteries or do you have to buy the same brand ones.. thanks
What about the fridge? Will it power a mini fridge?
Minivan Lee says that it's a pain charging with a USB C charger and the adapter that comes with it
So cool 😎 😊

So I have the little Jackery explorer 300, and I love it, and I used the link to buy the Jackery 1000 V2, and so far, for the most part, I love it, but I'm not able to charge it with my solar panels. I have two 100W Togo Power solar panels, 18V each, and when I plug them into the Jackery 1000 V2, there's no input charge showing. Is there a minimal voltage input charge for each of the solar panel inputs on the side? I thought I read that you can use two 100W panels to charge this. I am befuddled…
Maybe I need to buy a connector to connect the two panels and push them into one of the charging ports. Do you know if this is required or not?
Read your manual, what voltage range will it charge from? Is your connector polarity correct, center terminal positive?
There are so many paid-for comments on this video. Makes me think "buyer beware." Just my thoughts.
There’s literally no paid for comments to my knowledge, most are people that watch my videos often.
HEY!!!, can i add one more jackery battery to this???
Hey, this version is not expandable. The 1000 plus is, I recommend watching my video where I show the difference between the two. Here’s link ua-cam.com/video/8rELNuAaZ60/v-deo.htmlsi=n-KIZeNi5cuAGz0r
This is no good for winter camping in a car then. In Canada, temperatures mid winter can be ,-40 celsius which is -40 Fahrenheit. But then there is probably no battery that can operate at that temperature.
I’d hope you don’t let it get down to -40 in your car lol, but yeah none of the power stations would operate at the cold of a temperature nor would hardly anything else.
I am brand new and the power issues has been my biggest headache. What kind of refrigerator is that in this review
Is there a cable adapter that will let me charge the Jackery with my Ecoflow solar panels?
Yes amzn.to/3yDJMad
@@TolbersCamping thank you sir.
How many watts is your shop fan?
Is this better than the Ecoflow ❓ what happened to ur Ecoflow Jackery is only for outdoors right??
I think it charges better than ecoflow
The only answer that is helpful to me, is how long it can operate something like an electric hedgecutter for? I could buy cordless as my petrol machines come to the end of their life but corded are much cheaper & I have many other uses for a portable power station rather than use my small petrol generator. However, all the ads & info seem geared to good looking couples charging their phones or laptops whilst sitting in a field eating houmous & lettuce & drinking de caff. I can charge phones etc in my car or van (on the very rare occasions they need it). As for power outages, I get a few but again, it's how long do these things (any size) work for? Real time, real life info would be great to know.
Would it power a 1000watt air fryer?
Yes, the inverter is 1500w
Less than an hour?
Note to the uninformed, this unit will not power a standred toaster. It will power a 750w toaster, it will take 5 minutes to make toast but hey. Do some research,
How much is this station and the 200 watt solar panel?
Here’s link to it amzn.to/4cimGns
Does it come with a DC charge cord?
It only comes with the AC charge cord, you can purchase that separately on their website.
How do I turn off the power light ?
Press and hold the power button and it should turn off the unit
I have a midland ppg1000 I paid over 1k for complete trash it has a gcfi outlet and is constantly going into ac error mode super annoying midland never responded to my warranty ticket and then they discontinued it. Only pros was the rugged case it came in minus that horrible.
could i use this cable to get 12vdc jack out to my astro gear Jackery Adapter DC8020 to USB-C, they don't explain what this is for
They don't publish the max voltage for solar DC input. Where do I find this so I can use a non-Jackery solar panel?
Doesn't Jackery have a website? Do your own investigation. Relying on these videos and unknown commentors, like me, is never a good idea.
Nice Review!
Thanks!
Ecoflow or Jackery? 🤔
Either option is great
Jackery customer service has a good reputation. I’ve had very good experience with them myself. Jackery is based in the USA so maybe that has something to do with it. Ecoflow customer service kinda mixed reviews when I looked at them.
I chose Jackery because of customer service reputation and their power stations are super quiet whether in use or charging. Really nice if,you ever want to recharge in a library or cafe etc. Ecoflow sometimes more bang for the buck - but I’m glad I chose Jackery.
Does it require solar panels
No, you can also charge from wall outlet or car.
