We like to play music with our friends in a local park. I looked at lots of power supplies before settling on the Jackery. I was all set to buy the 240 here but Jackery had a cyber-Monday deal this past Christmas and the Jackery 300 was the same price as the 240. I like the fact that the 300 has two outlets. On a full charge we ran my Fender Rumble 100 bass amp and a Roland Cube 30 for over 3 hours and only used up 25% of the charge (admittedly at fairly low volume). I'm pretty sure we could add a power strip to run another amp and/or a small PA. I'm very pleased with the Jackery. It will come in handy during power failure season here in Northern California too.
That's great to hear man, this little thing has been so reliable so it's not hard to imagine the next one up powering a small band for a few hours, very nice 👌
thanks for your comment, that makes me wonder if I can plug my Bose L1 Pro 8, my Tc Helicon, and my line 6 HX stomp for a few hours before running out of power.
My Boss GT1000 easily lasts all day. (4 - 6 hours worth of actual playing). To the best of my knowledge, this might fit your needs but maybe you'd need to step it up to the next model (my amp powers itself so I don't need it to power more than just my pedal board).
I see no reason for it not to work, it's just a question of how long. With this particular model there's only one plug socket so you'd need an extension lead. Or you can consider the model above which if my memory serves me well, has two plug sockets.
i plugged it to my marshall code 50 amp with a Gibson Les Paul Standard, and the noise is unbearable .. I am sure its from the pickups, how can I fix this problem guys ? you'll save my life 🥵
I have 2 Altos TS408 2000 Watts 900 Watts continuos each 8 inch powered speakers, Casio PX560 keyboard, Alesis SR18 drum manchine and a Yamaha MG06X mixer...Do I need the Jackery Explorer 140, 240, 300, 550 or the 1000 for my setup...I called Jackery and was told that the 1000 model will not support 2 altos 2000W each...thanks for yor help.

I don't know if anyone can answer this question but how much watts do I need from a generator electric if I need it for my microphone hook up to a 120w amp and an electric violin and a usb charging station and I perform for my client that sells food for possibly between 9 to 12 hours that day?
Hi Thankyou I’m going to try one of these I’m new to busking iv been an artist singing covers for 20 years in wmcs but I want to try something different however I’m new on my busking journey so any help you can give me in regards to tips busking I’ll be grateful for. 😅x
My amp is self powered so I don't use it for that. I use it to power my Boss GT1000 pedalboard, my card machine and my phone. About 5 hours of actual use it will probably have about 70% power left over.
@@AaronCarrington sorry, but it’s possible to use the Bose S1 with the internal lithium battery, why do you use Jackery for power? and why don't you choose a more powerful speaker with the Jackery power station? I don’t understand…
Thanks! I've not had the chance to power that exact amp but it generally powers anything that you can plug into a wall socket. The question is how long it will power it for. That depends specifically on whatever is being powered. I use it purely for my pedalboard because my amp powers itself. Also, there are more powerful versions of the Jackery if you find this one doesn't have enough juice.
Hi dude, do you know if either this unit or the Volto would power up the TC Helicon acoustic play on the street, by that I mean, would I have to buy a specific adaptor to fit the TC or are they all just bog standard adaptors that would fit any pedal board? Thanks
I've not used the volto, I've just seen people with it so can't comment on that. However, the Jackery has a standard UK plug socket so as long as your pedal board has one of those you're good to go.
I've only tried the Jackery with my own gear but I see no reason it wouldn't work with anything that uses a UK plug socket. I guess with something as power hungry as a keyboard you'd have to do the maths and see how long it lasts.
You can use it for both pedal and speaker (or anything else you might plug into a UK wall socket). But if you want to use it for both at the same time you'll need to use an extension lead to split one plug into two. I personally use it for just the pedal because my speaker powers itself.
In my setup, the amp I use for busking (Bose S1) is self-powered, - the Jackey powers the GT-1000 pedal board only most of the time. Although I have used it to power the Bose S1 too (briefly when it ran out or power). I haven't busked in quite a while so I can't remember if there was a buzz or not, I don't remember one - sorry to hear it didn't work for you :(

This is all I needed to hear... 300 it is!
i was searching something for bass amplifier,so a micromark 801 50 watt could working 3hours ?
@@danieledanny9625 I should think so. My Rumble 100 runs for ages on this.
Hi Aaron good to see you back :) . Nice video matey
I'll be buying 2or 3 jackaroo 🤑🎹🎸🔊🥁 one 4 my foot pedal ect. Thank you for sharing 👍
thank you very much indeed
My pleasure 👍
Marvellous thanks 🙏
Greetings from Wales 🏴 Aaron
I want to power my AER - Compact 60 Acoustic amp with it to go busking.
Will it work for that?
I've only tried the Jackery with my own gear but I see no reason it wouldn't work with anything that uses a UK plug socket.
@@AaronCarrington you enjoy busking in Bath 👌
I have found it buzes through the aer. Any other experiences?
Great vid brother, I appreciate the recommendation!
No worries man, hope it helps!
So how long does it last? I'm looking to have s small set up-my guitar, looper and an amp. Would this power supply be good ?
My Boss GT1000 easily lasts all day. (4 - 6 hours worth of actual playing).
To the best of my knowledge, this might fit your needs but maybe you'd need to step it up to the next model (my amp powers itself so I don't need it to power more than just my pedal board).
would you recommend connecting a bass amplifier (150W) plus a small gitar amp (60W), simultaneously?
I see no reason for it not to work, it's just a question of how long. With this particular model there's only one plug socket so you'd need an extension lead. Or you can consider the model above which if my memory serves me well, has two plug sockets.
@@AaronCarrington thanks for the fast reply!
Its only a 240w ur using 210w that means u only have 1 hour and few minutes playing it
let me know about,i want to use an markbass micro 801 50watt
@@MonicaHolly143 and just an ampli 50 watt?
Good one , want to run a Roland cube street ex, a Vox 5 watt Amp, and boss dd7 for one hour approx
Am I safe to use a Yamaha THR 10ii plugged into this? Thank you in advance and for the info from the video!
Hello! Thank you for the review. Did it come with a solar panel or did you order the solar panel? What is your thought on it?
nice video mate and i like that jackery, i might get 1 of that, cheers mate
Good to hear, it's a decent unit for busking in my experience 👍
Thank you.
No worries👍😁
I wonder if the 300 will power my pedal board which has 6 strymon pedals and a few other ones and a blues jr 15 watt amp and a Marshall 5 watt amp?
Does it sound cleaner for your pedalboard than power from your house since it’s a completely isolated power source
Not that I've noticed but then I haven't been listening for that either.
i plugged it to my marshall code 50 amp with a Gibson Les Paul Standard, and the noise is unbearable .. I am sure its from the pickups, how can I fix this problem guys ? you'll save my life 🥵
i've heard you've gotta get an inverter with pure sine wave output or something like that

Hi Aaron can I ask if i plug in my guitar amplifier and GT100 how many hours this power supply will keep me going
Thanks

if you only need DC, such as for pedalboard, better to just run from an external battery. much more efficient on power, less wasted as heat

How long does it last usually? Bringing 2 amps for mics

Very helpful thanks 👍
what is the powered speaker you use. thanks for posting
I use a Bose S1, it's pretty popular with street performers.
@@AaronCarrington sorry, but it’s possible to use the Bose S1 with the internal lithium battery, why do you use Jackery for power? and why don't you choose a more powerful speaker with the Jackery power station? I don’t understand…
Nice.full packed❤😊
Hello fellow musician
Get a power supply with 6 outlets i use 2, get a batt pwr spk help save u power,
don't you need to ground the system to eliminate the hum?
But will it fit to power amp like the Yamaha stage pas 400BT - Thanks rot the review
Thanks! I've not had the chance to power that exact amp but it generally powers anything that you can plug into a wall socket. The question is how long it will power it for.

@@AaronCarrington Excellent, thanks man, I'll add it to my ever growing list of expenses then, it seems never ending ha ha
Can this power a speaker with 200 watt rms and 1000 watt peak?
Would this power my full size eS8 keyboard?
I've only tried the Jackery with my own gear but I see no reason it wouldn't work with anything that uses a UK plug socket. I guess with something as power hungry as a keyboard you'd have to do the maths and see how long it lasts.
Can you power a pair of JBL EON 15"? How long would last?
Better to play acoustic only isn't it?
Hi dude , so that battery is only for the pedal or also for the speaker .?
You can use it for both pedal and speaker (or anything else you might plug into a UK wall socket). But if you want to use it for both at the same time you'll need to use an extension lead to split one plug into two. I personally use it for just the pedal because my speaker powers itself.
How long will this keep a JBL speaker for djaying running
I honestly don't know because I've only used it to power my guitar pedalboard while busking (which is pretty power hungry) and to charge my phone.
How do you power your speaker?
The Bose S1 powers itself.
The only thing about it that sucks is that you cannot travel abroad with it.
That's interesting, why?
@@AaronCarrington It contains lithium and is beyond the wattage allowance for air crafts.
Think the 240 can power a katana 100?
It could power the Katana for sure but for how long I don't know, that would depend on the power consumption of the Katana itself.
Yes but only for 2 hours and 20 minutes,
What about your amp??? Are you powering both the GT1000 and your amp/pa with the Jackery for 4 hours?
I'm just powering the GT1000 and my phone, my Bose S1 powers itself.
Not good for powering a busking amp. E.g aer 60. Makes a buzz - so it's going back! 😢
In my setup, the amp I use for busking (Bose S1) is self-powered, - the Jackey powers the GT-1000 pedal board only most of the time.
