Most comprehensive teardown of jackery. Thank you for saving me the time. In watching your teardown I can already assume to know what is wrong with my unit with 94% confidence.
I have four Jackerys the 300- 500-1000 and 2000 plus lifpo4 I exercise them from time to time Funny thing is I have my TV plugged into my 1000 the exact one you’re tearing down thanks again for taking the time an effort!
This device is protected by an electronic fuse. @ 11:00 you see a very good picture of it. On the left side you see two black wires bringing power into the board at the B- terminals. There are two shunts between these two black terminals. Shunts are very small precision resistors (0.001 ohms or so) that an IC is able to measure the voltage drop across it to determine the current. To the right of the shunts you have 8 MOSFETs, which are basically on/off switches. To the right of that you have two more shunts and finally the output terminals (DGND). The "slave" board is measuring the current twice, if that measurement shows an error it will turn off the MOSFETs thus opening the battery circuit. This is a FAR more expensive way of providing a fuse compared to the traditional fusible element device (which needs to be replaced) but provides FAR better control. For instance if the output power is 100W, and it measures the battery voltage to be 22V then the current should be 4.54A (plus conversion losses.) So if the shunts measure say 7A that would be bad and it should cause a fault to shut off. This is definitely a quality device!
Now to really blow your mind! You might ask why is protection on the black negative side, and not the red positive side. Well electricity is the flow of electrons in a circuit. Electrons are negatively charge particles that flow out of the negative side of the terminal seeking to get to the positive side of the battery were there aren't a lot of electrons. So current flow OUT of the negative side, to the load, then to the positive side. Sorry you've been lied to your entire life about how current flows from + to - in reality it's the reverse! It's ok, have a chocolate chip cookie and it will be right as rain again!
Oh gosh, I let me electrical engineering degree get the better of me again, sorry ;-)
There's also two 60A fuses on the board.
More
@@caffeineismydrug where they are?
@@luxwithtenebris On the board, surface mount, labeled f1, f2, etc. But if you blew the fuse somehow, you've got bigger problems.
How can you tell if they are bad? Is there a way to measure them? I have a jackery that doesn’t work and no warranty coverage.
Thanks for fulfilling my video request! This is officially the best and most complete teardown of the Jackery 1000 on all of UA-cam now. I still think I want to try to build something custom on my own (now that I've watched some of your other videos) but for someone that doesn't feel comfortable tackling that on their own, this appears to be a fairly high quality product.
Now it's time for you to show us how you would spend $1000 on a DIY build. With that sort of budget and only needing to surpass 1000w, maybe you could afford to spend a little more on the enclosure and design it in an all aluminum PC case, instead of a plastic toolbox. Then you could convert the existing USB ports to charging ports for a cleaner look. Depending on the case, you would likely have superior cooling options vs a DIY case. You have to try make it look like it's worth $1000 as part of the challenge. You might also use RGB/LED fans that light up when they kick on.
You answered all of my questions precisely! Thank you. Excellent video.
Thanks for the teardown video. This battery cell N18650CL-29 is comes from BAKPOWER, 3.6V, 2.9Ah capacity, 1000 cycle life to 80% capacity, up to 3C discharging and 1C charging rate, it designs for electric vehicles or bicycles.
Thank you for mentioning the battery cell manufcaturer
Much complicated than I thought it would be, helps justify the cost. Nice video, thanks
I cannot thank you enough for taking the time and effort to tear this down, I'm always fascinated by looking "under the hood" into devices such as this, not to mention I plan on buying either this, or the new 1500.
Be sure that you like this battery chemistry in consider lithium iron phosphate instead which would give you thousands of more charges than this one
@@robertdillon9989 three years later I did just that I got the Jackery 2000+Lifpo4 and I got it on prime day and saved $900 on it. I cannot believe the deal I got!
@@robertdillon9989 BTW, I also have three other Jackerys the 300 500 1000 lithium ion models, but they work great.
"I'm not really sure what I'm seeing here" and then he starts naming every part on the board hahaha nice.
I know enough to be dangerous. I can point out what a MOSFET is, an inductor, where the chip is the control the USB... but if you ask me how to wire any of those components, that's a whole different story. LOL
@@LithiumSolar haha but you did a good job. Well done and great vids. You asked for more video topics. I was wondering if you could do a tour of the "compound" with all the containers etc. And maybe tells what the plan is. I wasn't here at the start of your channel and don't have a clue what's going on. I thought you live in one of the containers but you live in an rv? So what's up with all the containers and the rv?
I thought the same
I'm not sure where you guys saw an RV. I don't live in nor own an RV. I have house and bought a shipping container to put my batteries in for the purposes of being outside the house and in a steel box should anything go wrong. I would LOVE to have an RV one of these days, but just not in the cards yet financially.
@@LithiumSolar hehe my bad. Whoops. There is another channel I follow and I guess I somehow switched you two in my head. ua-cam.com/video/1R2qZdqzwLI/v-deo.html Hightech lab also does a lot with batteries and electrical stuff. But instead he lives in a desert in a rv.
Great tear down. I love seeing the inards.
The User Guide says it's got over/under current, over/under voltage, thermal shut down conditions, etc. That is a solid state power controller with a bunch of FETs. Being solid state you can kill the power and gracefully shut everything down without having to change a fuse.
If you have a fuse or fuseable link you will need to open the device to repair it. A solid state solution makes sense.
However, I don't see GFCI, which I would think should be important for something the may be used camping, where it might damp or even wet. But it does say "do not expose to liquids".
I bought two Jackery 1000's last summer to provide power to my house during power outages, and I have used them for that and for many other things. I also bought two of their 100 watt portable folding solar panels. In my opinion Jackery is a top of the line company and your video of the "innards" supports my opinion. Thanks for the video, and your professional ability to take the power station apart safely and be able to put it back together and have it still function. The video blog was excellent.
Thought I was the only one calling inside stuff innards....made my hour
There's something very satisfying by looking inside a product you own but are afraid to tear into it yourself, seeing the build quality makes me feel better about the money I spent.
Great Video breakdown! Thank you!
A few minor details you missed... There absolutely are fuses on the board, I believe there are 2x 60A fuses on the BMS board. There's also a nifty power switch that disables the BMS enablement FETs. If you measure from the middle grounds to the + you'll see it only has power when the BMS allows it to (switched on, minimum voltage, not overheating, etc). I recently acquired an abused Jackery 1000 that was down to 15V, so was effectively shut down. I disconnected the battery pack and inverter from the front panel PCB, and was able to bootstrap the BMS by manually charging the battery pack up to about 20V. After a little while, the BMS came alive, and I was able to measure ~20V at the center terminals, so I applied 25.2V to the pigtail that goes to the front panel PCB and then limited my to bench supply to 5A. It took about 8-10 hours to fully charge, which makes sense for charging a dead 1000WHr pack at roughly 100-120W.
Now, the Front panel is basically just a collection of DC to DC supplies... As you pointed out, there's DC to DC for 5V USB, USB-C, and of course, the regulated 12V DC output, all 'enabled' with the push of a button. Now it turns out the other corner of the board is the 10-30V MPPT used for charging. The Jackery front panel allows charging with 12-24V barrel connector, solar panels (~18V), and technically supports 10-30VDC. The MPPT integrated into the front panel PCB is designed to provide the 25.2V that BMS needs to do its job (so you can charge a 25V pack w/ only 12V). In my case, someone blew up the front end, and let the smoke out of some of the FETs. (There's a set of P-FETs that isolate the Anderson connector from the 8mm barrel connector, and there's a set of N-FETS that deliver power to the the 10-30V to 25.2V buck/boost MPPT circuit; I suspect someone applied too much voltage, or perhaps applied significant reverse polarity to the Anderson or barrel connector; looking at the front end, it should tolerate a little abuse, but not much). In my case, I've reached out to Jackery to see if they'll sell me the PCB. This seems unlikely, so I might continue to reverse engineer it and throw a few transistors at it to fix it, but even without the front panel to charge it, one could theoretically buy a 24V MPPT to feed the BMS and/or still have the pack run the 1000W inverter.
@@marcgreaves4354 It's possible that the receptacle wiring is loose or shorted, Sounds like a bad inverter board. I suspect you'll need to take it apart and investigate, you'll probably see somewhere on the inverter board where the smoke got out. There's a shutoff switch on the BMS, no it'll be a bit safer to work on. Good luck!
@@caffeineismydrug lol I maaaaay need some simpler help on that. Can I repair it? I’m was hoping a nice swappable fuse would be the issue 😂
@@caffeineismydrug assume you’re talking to a 5 yr old 😂
@@stitcha123 Probably not, one might be able to swap out an inverter from another unit, but used parts are few and far between, and Jackery won't sell parts or PCBs, so your only hope is another used unit that you might pick and pull parts from.
Looks pretty good inside but I was surprised on how small the battery pack is. I am glad you do this as I just hate putting things back together so thanks.
Makes me wonder if it can be expanded by simply adding a powerpole connector something like that. And yes, I hate putting back together too but one good part about making videos is if I forget where things go, I can always rewind and look how I took it apart LOL.
From what I’ve seen on other power station tear downs, about half is the battery and the other half contains the circuitry and space for airflow. Would be cool to have an extra connector that would allow a way to expand the battery.
@@gojeffgordon24 If I remember right I think there are some models you can daisy chain together for more capacity
Thanks for sacrificing your warranty and doing this! Changing out the batteries on this unit will be a bit daunting if/when needed... happy to see it is a well built unit, love mine.
That was an excellent disassembly video! Thank you for doing that! You are brave to have taken it (The Jackery 1000) apart and then to have successfully reassembled it. Cheers!
I just bought this awesome machine on prime day and have wanted to do this teardown myself but hesitated because of my lack of knowledge and the fact it has a 2 year warranty. Thanks for doing this! Good to see whats inside which just builds up confidence in the product. Hopefully jackery gives you free products and takes this video in a positive light because I am almost certain they will see it.
Nice job of revealing what are inside those portable stations are hiding. It helps people on decisions of buying. It shows that they are throwaway type once the battery life cycles is over. One device that will end up in recycling depot. ♻️ Many thanks 😊
Great video, thanks! I was just looking at these for sale yesterday. They offer multiple capacity models, so that may explain the use of parallel cables: a 1000 is likely two 500 models in the same box. This reduces manufacturing costs, I suppose, if they use the same control board.
There is a max input DC voltage from solar panels of 30V, which seemed low to me, as most domestic panels are around 38-40V for a 250-300W panel. Jackery offers a 100W 'portable' panel, which is a little overpriced but interesting when packaged with this battery/inverter unit.
Batteries in more than 3 parallels, is that why so many other components.
I've had this battery for about 4 years and I still use it almost every day and love it it's literally saved my life a few times
As I suspected in the last video this appears to be a first cabin manufacturing effort. Silicon cables, quality boards and connectors, injection molded housings and molded brass nutserts. Someone below mentioned it was an outrageous cost...perhaps, as I felt the ROI may be long, but quality first in design and manufacture and materials have higher costs. Add to that the mold costs, perhaps custom heat sinks, Fabs (NI brackets, foot brackets etc.), board costs (Design & mfg + QA - delivered), wiring/harness mfg and finally the assy cost, then amortizing the Engineering and R&D (Ain't Cheep); the consumer gets a Pretty good product IMHO! With 40 products under my belt in 30yrs, I'd put my name on it if I designed it. If it fits someones needs it's likely worth the investment even with a long ROI. Thanks again for you quality Vids!
Yes I agree, there is a lot going on inside this unit it makes me feel justified for spending the money I did, I love tear down videos.
It looks quite well built and designed. I'm happy that I have one of those.
Excellent video, the build quality of this product looked impressive.
Thanks for taking the time to produce this video. I'm really impressed with the quality of the Jackery products. I have this unit, and a 240 WH as well, and really like them both.
Nicely done ! ! Going to purchase on of these units and want to install an Anderson Power Poll connector in parallel with the cigarette lighter jack. Now I have an understanding of how the device is wired. 👍
Good tear down and detailed explanations.
Keep up the great work brother 👍
One thing you kinda wonder about how the insides are an quality this is actually very interesting cool stuff 👍👍👍
That inverter is pretty good quality!
Very well built. I like it. I like that the wires that will have the load were at least close to the same length.
Teardowns are the best. Great vid!
Thank you for educating us
EngineerX, and now your channel make my top 2 favorite reviewers. Above and beyond effort, thanks.
That 6S configuration makes it compatible with common 24v inverter components. That little vertically-mounted PCB they you are pointing at at 5:34 is an off-the-shelf msw inverter controller.
Necessary if you're going to power 12V items.
Thanks for this. Very well made and concise. You didn't waste my time with useless blathering. Now I know that I should just take mine to the recycle center and not waste my time opening it up. I have to say that I am very disappointed in this product considering the cost vs. the actual use I got out of it before it died. I bought it for car camping. My money would have been better spent on hotel rooms.
Thank you so much for this teardown. Pretty sure this video is the first of its kind. Because I have not come across anything similar in past searches. Really neat to see how it was done inside. Also this will have so many benefits for a lot of people. Stay Safe from a Proud Canadian.
Thank You. That's a well built product.
Thank You from Ireland 🙂🇮🇪☘️
Great video. These are nice units. The one question I have that has not been answered is how many years are the internal batteries good for? Being lithium-ion, I am guessing 3 to 5 years? Which in my view is not a long enough life. The Jackery is a good product but not to knock it, I just built a 1280 W/Hr one using a 12V 100A/Hr Lithium Iron Phosphate battery that should last 8 years for about $370 total. It has a 1,600 watt pure sine inverter and 10 USB (6 are PD and OC 3.0 type), and 2 12v accessory sockets. It does not have a solar pane input at this time but can easily add this later. Plan to use on road trips, around the property, and for occasional power outages. While not a pretty as the Jackery, the battery should yield more power with a longer shelf life. Either the battery or inverter can easily be replaced if needed.
Outstanding - nice detail, thank you!!
Looks very well engineered and the construction is clean and professional. The only thing I don't like is the direct attachment of the fans to the chassis. They should use some rubber grommets between the fan and the plastic chassis to eliminate vibrations. Especially when you have a plastic case that will resonate a lot.
The sound of the fans inside is clean and quiet no vibration, adding that would just add cost to an already expensive unit.
@@daleadmire1451 - Unfortunately it's not, I have the Explorer 1000 and there's no way you will sleep if you use a CPAP machine on AC and you have the E1000 close to your bed. Same thing if you have an electric blanket running from the inverter.
@@JoeDplummer_ if you use the DC adapter the fan absolutely never comes on with a CPAP machine, plus I have an electric ice chest plug it into the DC outlet the fan never comes on with that either. That goes for both my explorer 500 and the 1000.
The fans are loud but vibration and resonance arent an issue.
This video demonstrates that I don't want to put my time into the DIY versions, but I will be open to purchasing 3rd party builds. My focus is video production and photography. I think the only real power demand I have is a laptop. The only thing left to consider is Air Conditioning power supply for off the grid. My fridge is propane powered.
I have this model and wanted to see inside but since mine is new, I didn't want to void the warranty. Thanks for the tear down, I do a lot of work with 18650's and was hoping this unit had them. Now later I can pull out a bad cell and keep mine running for years more.
Don't mix new cells with cells that are heavily used or close to their End of Life cycle count (should be called Diminished Capacity Cycle Count). A few dozen cycles, not a big deal but 3 years down the road with about 450 cycles on her and you'll be putting a new cell in that measures 20mohm while every other cell in that power station is getting to the point where impedance is noticeably rising and 80mohm is the average for the pack. You'll have a bunch of cells at 1600mah or so cells while you put in a fresh one with 2Ah. The group that gets this cell is going to need more balancing work done from the BMS.
The most important aspect to consider is: ALWAYS REPLACE CELLS WITH AN EXACT MATCH. Don't change the chemistry, capacity or IR. If you absolutely can't get your hands on a certain Chinese made cell figure out which Samsung cell it is trying to replicate and go that route. Only buy new from vendors that are trusted. Li Ion Wholesale, 18650 Battery Store, Illumn, Battery Hookup, etc. Nothing from Aliexpress or Alibaba unless that's the only place you can find a Chinese cell. Don't get the quality name brands from Aliexpress or Alibaba.
thumbs up for serviceability
Well done tear down. 👌👍
The label on the bottom is the warranty tamper Detection device.
Thanks for showing us all this 👍 I have a unit exactly like this that failed after 13 charges, so I would like to see if I can either fix it or reuse the batteries.
Pretty cool
At 8:01, most likely current measurement shunts due to the traces coming out of the pair on the right.
This really a great product 👌
Excellent tear down video. Thanks !
It seems to be well built! I just got one!
Very interesting tear down. Surprised it was 6S and 18650. A very pretty build however and the 1000 watt inverter performed in spectacular fashion. The Jackery is really a little powerhouse. Thanks for making the video!
Those pink blocks r capacitors for the lc filter ... The choke & capacitor filters out the high frequency spwm and lets the 60hz or 50hz sinewave out
In the US, at least, opening a unit cannot void the warranty. The sticker "Void Warranty if Removed" is no longer valid. Manufacturers just put that on there still to keep people from opening up the units.
This is part of the Right to Repair Act, if I remember correctly.
This is true! I think the problem is though that companies are still likely to refuse warranty claims and it would be up to you to litigate it. Most regular people, like myself, aren't willing to hire lawyers and all that for a warranty claim. Unfortunately, they still got you... :(
@@LithiumSolar Yeah, perhaps. But also just stating the RTR clause may be enough for them to go ahead and do it. Especially if you tell them they may be open to a legal action if they don't comply. Because at that point, it wouldn't be just "you", it would be every other customer at that point they turned away for that, so it'd be class action lawsuit. Not just small claims with one customer.
@@LithiumSolar you mean "hire".
@@yourpcmd Yes, ooops :) Don't know how that happened...
So much for my aforementioned warranty tamper detection.
Interesting. I’m waiting expectantly for the huge spark and smoke that usually accompany my projects.
Great breakdown video, thanks!
😎 cool!! Thank you for sharing.
Holding screwdriver: Honey, I’m going in! I’ll call the ambulance...
Thanks for this video! Upload more like it, please. 🙂
Ordered a Jackery 1000 after seeing this video and reading the comments.
Perfektní 👌
Díky za video. Mám jackery 500 a chtěl bych utlumit ventilátory.
Nice nuts & bolts teardown. Honest and direct. Maybe a little more info on the cells next time would be nice.
Thank you sir. Appreciated.
Enjoy the tear downs. Hope YT is providing enough income revenue for you to afford the purchases. Thanks for your efforts...your giving Will "a run for his money"!
Yes, it did appear to be VERY WELL BUILT.
Yes, it is VERY WELL BUILT.
**The million dollar question: is it possible to replace the battery pack when it's done, or would this $1000 nice piece of equipment be tossed once the battery is dead?**
Yep, everything I’ve seen from Jackery is pretty quality work. Saw one other tear down for Jackery, but don’t recall the model. I would love the ability to build the inverter circuitry.
Can you do a teardown of the duracell powerblock 500 or if you know the capacitor rating on the AC input side. Thanks
Not sure I'd call those fuses on the nickel, it looks big enough to be a pretty high amp "fuse" if so, looks wider and of course much shorter than the battery hookup ones.
Btw those copper colored things are definitely shunt resistors, usually very low value for that appearance, like 1mOhm or so.
Yeti teardown? they appear to be of decent quality. Thanks i enjoyed it.
Awesome video
Bottom line is that this 1000 dollar pile failed me after about 13 charge cycle.....1000 dollars out the window.......now days it is 650 💵 but longevity is very much questioned 🤨🤐
Thanks for the video dude 👍
Wow, what happened to yours? Didn't they replace it under warranty?
@@LithiumSolar unfortunately it was passed warranty period, I did not had a chance to use it that much
well done
that is awesome. love teardown videos and see how things are built. product reviews are ok but not something i care for much unless those are not commercially available products meant for the average consumer. so if you get any cool battery products from battery hookup or from anywhere else, open them up :)
Do you know or think the AC outlets and usb ports are user changeable if they are worn out?
You didn’t show how the AC outlets are connected that I was hoping to see; still a very great informational video.
Thanks
You can see the outlets briefly at 4:03. They can be removed, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to find the exact part to replace with.
Interesting...My Jackery 1000 Explorer started flashing the SOS signal at the flashlight on the side, and it would not turn off. However, I was able to get the light to stop flashing by doing a reset according to the manual, after a few minutes, it would start flashing SOS again. This device is slightly over a year old, with minimal use, and I store it fully charged. I sent Jackery an email about the problem, so I guess I'll find out how their customer service really is?
That's... unusual. Did you get any water or moisture in the light button by chance? That's the only thing I could think of.
@@LithiumSolar That's very possible now that I think about it. I had the Jackery in an enclosed car top carrier bag. The carrier is waterproof, but we have been having heavy humidity here, so I think condensation built up inside carrier, because all of the items that were in it were covered with moisture.
My only complaint about this battery is that I wish I could have access to more than just 10amps dc like if I wanted to connect a trolling motor to it
7:00 This whole thing about capacitors being charged is not entirely true. Any well designed circuit will have discharge resistors on high voltage capacitors so they are normally discharged to safe level within a minute or less.
How do you maintain your jackeries while you have them in storage? Should I keep them plugged in all the time? I just store them for emergencies but want to make sure they're properly maintained. Thanks
it's probably best to leave it around 60-80% charged in storage and just top it up before you need it. 18650s last the longest if they're never completely full or dead. my laptop batt died after less than 10 cycles because i left it plugged in all the time
Charge it every 6 months or it will self destruct. I only got one use out of mine before I learned this the hard way.
@@franklinmorgan5412 yes, I've been doing that. Thanks
I wonder if it's possible to add more capacity to the battery? And keep the original BMS, I guess using a second bms would be better, but connect to the battery before BMS, but I don't have much use for these anyway. I'd rather build one if I did, great video!
I think if I built one, I'd go with a 1.2-1.5kw inverter, and build a battery around 2kwh, probably 48v,
Hey @LithiumSolar, I know it’s been a while, but did you happen to see something on the inverter board that would allow the frequency to be changed (60 50 hz) ? Thanks!!
LithiumSolar amazing review, i just love your channel...Peace
Thanks for the strip down. I hope you or someone can help me out. I have a 1500 Ns whenever I charge it, the temp sensors are reading cold. Now, it's summer in California so we are far from cold. How do I fix the sensor so that it can charge and not think it's too cold to charge. Thanks!
Great video. I have a jackery explorer 240. I spilled water on it and it will not turn on. Do you think it will work when it eventually dries out? Thanks for your reply.
Most electronics can usually be dried out and they'll still work provided they weren't energized at the time and you do a very good job drying it out. The problem here is the power stations are always energized, even if they're turned off and unplugged, due to the battery and BMS circuitry. Unfortunately, if water were spilled on one and got inside, I would have a very difficult time trusting it again especially considering it's a lithium battery (fire risk).
Thank you for reply. My water cup of probably 6 ounces tipped over and fell on it and it was not powered on or in use. But I’m sure it got inside because when I shook it, water came out. And it would not turn on. I gave it a few days to dry out. Then, pushing buttons still did nothing. Then I plugged it in and it came on with roughly
the same amount of charge before the water spill. Hoping everything’s OK But I do understand the concerns
Worth saying that I would consider the mains cabling to be coloured correctly, in other countries red is Live and black is Neutral. Perhaps indicates the designers were not American.
I understand each country has their own standards, but this is a US company marketing a product to people in the US, so I would except US standards to be followed.
Great video. So if I take apart a Tesla am I going to find a thousand 18650 batteries?
That depends. The newer cars are using 2170 cells.
What I find disappointing is each time it's recharged you loose 1% of a cell then after a 1000 times its ready for the bin . which is a wast of an inverter & solar controller.This is most likely why it's made of poliurafane /like bakealite material,that shatters,for despsal purposes contains less oil.
Nechápu vaše zklamání. Je to limitující vzhledem k dané technologii lopo.
V dnešní době je výhodnější proto lifepo, ale jackery jej bohužel zatím nepoužívá. Použití lifepo by mnohonásobně zvedlo cenu a zřejmě by klesli tržby
You've done a great job thanks. Based on what l've seen and your explanation l'd rather buy this than the unknown or made in China store in a cool place stuff.
Unfortunately all jackerys are made in China.
@@daleadmire1451 Bohudík. Díky tomu je technologie levná. Není čínský výrobek, jako čínský výrobek. Záleží na technologii a kvalitě výroby, kterou si Jackery hlídá.
Great I was wondering what was inside the Jackrey. What brand BMS was used? And putting it back together & it works!
How about the Ecoflow Delta mini takedown next? Thx🙏🏽
How do you get six s?
Looks like there is a series of positive to negative cells in each of the three groups. Is that the first series? assuming that the three groups are in series. Is that how you get the six?
Is that right?
There are six groups, each group is wired in series. If you look at the left 1/3rd of the pack, you'll see a positive-negative connection as you noted. That is two groups of cells, or 2-s. There are three groups like that, giving you 6s total. They're welded on the other side the same way, just offset to give the series connections.
Good Job! Hey i just got the Jackery Explorer 1000. On the box there's a sticker with all the specs. It says that i can get 800 cicles with it. I would like to kwon your thoughts on that. Thanks
Would you do a teardown and review on the Bluetti AC200MAX and maybe other Bluetti products?
Hi,
I'm going you can help me with my Jackery 1500. I bought it used and the USB ports and the 12 bolt accessory port work, but the three AC outlets don't work. The 1500 takes a charge and provides a charge through the other ports, just not the AC. I have done the factory reset and that doesn't fix the problem. I believe something inside has broken off as there is a rattling noise inside as if something is skittering around when I rotate the body of the 1500. Can you offer any ideas as to what might be broken and what pieces I have to replace based on this description?
The person I bought it from will not reply to me, so I can't get any further information as to the cause of the problem. Since i bought it used, Jackery is unwilling to help me as well.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer. And, even if you don't know an answer, your video will be immensely helpful when I do finally take the 1500 apart.
Enjoy the day,
Carey
I just bought one of these little dumpsters and in 4 months and 5 phone charges later its frozen and wont take a charge and wont charge anything. What do you think the quickest way in here is to disconnect power in hopes of rebooting the thing?
I’m in the same boat. Have you had any luck? I’m just going to buy a new one and switch out the guts and take it back. Lol
My jackery died into the third year and only using it a few times. Won’t charge or show anything on the display. Tried a hard reset and nothing. No more Jackery for me.
Liked and Sub. Great Job. Thanks
I'm worried by there not being any air filters on these, I live in a country that doesn't have electricity 24x7 so mine gets used a lot. The fans run constantly due to the load I'm presenting and I wonder what it's looking like inside? Would anybody like to comment on that?
Does this device also have an AC input ?
Thank you for the great content !!
The device itself does not have an AC input, but it comes with an AC-DC adapter that you plug in to the DC input jack. So yes, you can charge it with AC but it requires carrying around the adapter :)
@@LithiumSolar thank you !
Bonjour j'ai branché un panneaux de 300w sur cette batterie et depuis elle ne s'allume plus avez vous une idée de ce qu'il faut remplacer ? Merci pour votre réponse Cordialement
Is this device of European or Australian build? The red/line / black/neutral is the norm there.
US company marketed to US buyers, but not built in the US. Thanks for pointing this out though :) I know each country has their own electrical standards, but figured white/black was the norm most places.
