Jackery Solar Generator 1000 v2 and 200W Panel,1070Wh,1500W (Dune White)

This unit is better than I imagined . It even runs a pizza oven at approximately 1300 watts draw flawlessly . Also a water kettle that runs in a range of 989- 1250! No problem. I tested a whole array of electrical equipment . Heaters at low work well. Enough heat and blow to be worthwhile . Max level of 1500 shuts down after a few seconds . A ceramic induction hot plate . Does not work on most settings BUT on heat milk setting will boil a pot of water in three minutes . I bought a 870 watts wok type cook pan - no probs! Toaster two slice no issues . My favorite toy - a retro three in one unit , coffee maker / toaster / oven / with fry grill area on top ( only cost maybe $80 or so on Amazon) works perfectly even though when all modes are on it shows at above 1000 watts. Hair dryer runs at low , hot is no problem . At high - shuts off immediately . So I can cook , boil, toast, cook pizza, charge phone and all sorts of stuff with no issues . Didn’t try tools yet . So drills , saws etc no idea . Water pump works well . Oh forgot 700 and 900 watt microwaves work perfectly . Jackery did not mention Microwave so I thought I would need a 600W one, but no need to buy one . This unit exceeds my expectations . Have not tested recharging by the two solar panels - will do that when the weather improves . Charging on mains 110v and cig lighter outlet in car no problem . This Jackery will also easily support a new toy, a Joolca tankless water heater for shower and dish washing , and the pump to extract water from lake, stream or whatever . No issues . I now watch the run rate of WATTS for all electrical stuff that I see - it’s become like an obsession . Just ordered a mini oven from Wal Mart that runs at less than 200 watts ! Must try it . Runs in the cig lighter outlet cable . That should give me slow cooking abilities anywhere !!!! Lighting no issue . I haven’t been so excited in 50 years ! Next I want a van / skoolie or whatever and go boondocking just for fun . And play survival off grid for a bit !!! Sold my fancy Motorhome a few months ago for crazy high money because of the Covid escapism that going on!! The Motorhome was just too like living at the lake home and too easy . I want to play “off grid survival time” just to be an active 68 yr old , experimenting living below 1000 watts ! Finally I have found a 12v electric blanket for cold nights !!!!! It cant get better than this !! Finally , watt hours - obviously one needs to be cognizant of consumption. Even at 600 watts - the unit will go flat in maybe less than two hours . But in the average day , making toast for ten minutes , a few pots of coffee, perhaps cook a few burgers or make a pot of stew , charge a few phones, etc . Should be no problem . Then intermittently recharge in the car when driving , by solar , or even from my noisy 4000 watt gas powered generator , should be no problem . Happy camper here! Jackery will have a higher capacity 2000 watt unit available shortly I hear. That will be able to provide more power and for longer for things like heaters, hair dryer , more powerful microwave ovens perhaps. All with no noisy gas motor and lighter than a traditional generator . At home or at the office if a power outage arises, the Jackery 1000 will support lights, and some equipment for a reasonable period of time with no noise and no fumes. It can be used while in charge mode and show watts in and watts out on the meter . Apparently the parallel in/ out use is hard on the unit and may cause wear and tear on the battery and possibly reduced lifetime potential . Time will tell . This Jackery product is well engineered and good value .

After researching every option, manufactures as well as reading reviews and watching videos we purchased the Jackery 1000 power station and two Jackery 100 watt solar panels. I wanted to have a solar unit on our camping trips as well as for possible emergencies at home as a quiet and reliable back up to our gas generator. The Jackery arrived with a 39% charge out of the box. I read the directions and set up the panels on my balcony facing the sun the next morning. It is a very easy set-up. I turned the panels as the sun moved across the sky to optimize the rays hitting the surface of the panels as directly as possible about every 15-20 minutes. We're in Southern California and it was a clear December day. With both panels connected I was pulling in about 135 watts to the Jackery. By early evening, an hour before sunset the J1000 was fully charged. My only rub is for $1600 + dollars you would think Jackery would throw in a carrying case for the station... You have to order it separate. A cooler bag will work fine for much less. Also, the panels do not have a carrying case. They have no protection when on the move. I purchased a artists canvas portfolio bag. Keep the cardboard box the panels came in put it in the portfolio, and voila! A protective carrying case for the panels. I'm going to get an additional Jackery 1000 to use while one is charging as a backup while running our 12V fridge. The Jackery seems to be the best option until new technology arrives. Update, 6 months later: Upon using The J1000 to run our 53qt. 12V camping refrigerator/freezer the results are in. We started with a full 100% charge on the J1000. The refrigerator compressor fired right up and began cooling. After 24 hours the reading on the J1000 was 80% charge. Periodically I opened the fridge to check and simulate actual use. After 48 hours it was at 40% with, of course, 20% power remaining. This means mathematically we can run the fridge approximately 60 hours on the J1000 without recharging on one power station. Excellent. I have purchased another J1000 as a back up while the other is charging. That should easily give us 4-5 days without even recharging. If you are considering a solar power unit, I don't believe you'll go wrong with the Jackery line. I'm very picky and critical of commercial products and have surprisingly pleased, so far, with Jackery. BTW: Most important, their customer service is second to none, having contacted them with questions and experiencing quick responses. I'm an avid camper, prepper, actual paying customer, and user. No axes to grind, no bs.

My wife and I wanted something we could easily charge and use both in times of need and while camping and this has fit the bill perfectly for both! First, the generator itself is really easy to carry around and isn't too big and bulky. The inputs on it are diverse, with 3 AC outputs, a DC output, 2 USB type C ports, and 2 USB ports, it has plenty of options for plugging different devices in. It also has an input for charging via wall outlet or via DC port in your car, for example, and comes with the cords required for that. It also has a port for plugging in the solar panels. Second, the solar panels are amazing. I thought they were going to be much heavier, but they're easy to maneuver and bring along. The magnetic closure feels nice and you can tell these solar panels are well constructed. They have fold-out stands on the back, as well as a bag attached for storing cords, which is a really smart design feature, as they've been used. Charging via the included solar panels is easy and painless. Overall, charging it is easy. And taking it camping was really helpful. We used it to power a low-watt coffee maker and a small fan. So, for camping, I highly recommend it. It's great to have as a backup and I can see it's usefulness for overlanding. Where it's shined for me in particular was yesterday at our house, when we lost power while I was working. I work from home and need internet access. I plugged our router/WiFi into the Jackery and plugged in my laptop and it powered both, so I could continue to work, for 4 hours without breaking a sweat. By the end, I had only used about 5% of the battery. This thing has been a useful tool and I have no regrets getting it.

I purchased the Jackery 1000 and two 100w solar panels for camping, and to use as an emergency backup at home. It arrived on time and was packaged very well. It is lightweight (22lbs) and compact making it very portable. The solar panels are compact and very easy to set up. It took about 5 1/2 hours to charge the unit from 39% to 100% on a windy but sunny spring day in northern CA. The eyelets on the solar panels worked well for tie down points in the gusty wind. I also locked the panels and 1000 unit through the handles to keep them from “walking away” at the campground. We used the unit to power our small 12ft travel trailer 110v lights, a 12v 45L fridge/freezer, 110v TV with DVD player in the evenings, 110v coffee maker, 12v fan and it kept our phones and tablets charged for our 6 nights of camping. We did charge the unit daily. I saw that it went down to 54% after our double feature movie night and it took about 4 hours to recharge to 100% the next day, which was sunny. I did unplug the trailer from the Jackery unit for recharging as recommended. I placed ice packs in the fridge to ensure it stayed cold during the process. Having this unit is a very nice change from a gas powered generator. It is a versatile and lightweight clean source of energy that is easy to use. I am happy with this purchase and would recommend it to others.

I purchased this Jackery E1000 portable power station combination pack with the two SolarSaga 100W solar panels after the Texas winter storm of 2021. Pros: The capacity of this power station is massive, which will leave you with lots of power to spare. You cannot beat the easy to use controls and flexibility of this unit. You can charge at least three different ways (plug into standard wall outlet, an automobile power outlet, or via solar panels). The construction and durability of this unit is very strong; it's very solidly built. For the huge power capacity it stores, is not too heavy or bulky to the point of where it would be impractical to carry around. It's quite portable actually. Noise: you might hear a small fan, and it's extremely quiet. I have purchased two other Jackery products in the past, which have been dependable, reliable and high quality. Cons: I recommend you purchase a case to store this in so that you can protect it when you are not using it. You might combine the use of this machine with a power inverter that is also powered by gasoline or propane so that you have multiple backup systems if your purpose for this equipment is to stay ready for extreme or inclement weather. If you're using this for leisure, I highly recommend you get the solar panels as well, which will give you even more flexibility out in nature (especially if you're overlanding). Overall, an excellent product and a reputable company that pays attention to quality in their products!

I bought this because we have a cabin in the mountains where the electricity goes out often with storms/high wind. I also bought the Jackery 300w mini, thinking one could be powering the fridge while the larger 1000w could go downstairs for the heater. But in the meantime I have been recharging it daily to see how it works and here are some observations: 1. My heater is gas, and when on, the electricity surges to 700w or 900w for short bursts. This makes the 300w not able to be used on the heater, and drains the 1000w faster than I would like. 2. My garage deep freezer cycles from 4w to 60w many times a minute when cooling. the 300w won't work on it, haven't troubleshooted it enough to find out why. 3. My fridge generally is 60w when working and can surge to 180w when the ice maker is used. Both of the Jackery batteries work well on the fridge. I can power the fridge for about 14 hours. I can power the fridge for 3-4 hours with the 300w. 4. When the 1000w is hooked up to both 100w solar panels you need to use a splitter to connect them that comes with it. The MOST I see it uploading power with 2 is 130w. Why? 5. When I put one panel connected to the 300w and 1 panel on the 1000w they both power up in full sun at about 80w. So brand new, the panels are 80% efficient. :( it takes most all of day to power the 1000w up. 6. I wonder about the efficiency of other brands with their panels, are they better? I think a also saw a brand where you could send a power source to another battery. So for instance, if I could hook the 300w to the 1000w, that would give more of a power supply and I wouldn't have to check up on it as much. Conclusion: I was hoping for the amount of $ spent I would have enough power to keep the fridge going 24/7 with a couple opportunities to heat up the house 2 or 3 times. But instead, for quite a bit of money, I bought about 18 hours of power for one fridge.

These panels are designed to efficiently convert sunlight into energy, replenishing the power station's battery even on cloudy days. The foldable and portable design makes them easy to transport and set up, ensuring you can harness solar energy wherever you go. The synergy between the Jackery Explorer 1000 and the Saga Solar panels is evident in the seamless integration. The power station features a dedicated solar input for convenient charging, and the included adapter makes connecting the panels straightforward. One potential consideration is the combined weight of the power station and the two solar panels, which might be substantial for some users. However, this is a trade-off for the substantial energy capacity and versatility offered by the setup. In summary, the Jackery Explorer 1000 with two Saga Solar 100 Watt Solar panels is a reliable and efficient combination that provides ample power for various devices and activities. Whether you're camping, preparing for emergencies, or simply seeking sustainable energy solutions, this setup offers a dependable and user-friendly solution

Purchased this to use in our cabin in the woods that has no power. Eventually we will install solar panels on the roof, but in the mean time I just charge the Jackery at home and take it with me. It is not too heavy, I can carry it by its handle with no difficulty. At full charge I can run our internet satellite dish (for internet and phone service; there is no cell service) for about 10 hours, and also charge my phone, Apple watch, and iPad, before the charge level is down to 20%. The directions recommend recharging the battery once the charge is at 20% or lower. There are several USB and USB-c charging ports, as well as 3 3-prong outlets. In our late summer, Northern latitude (Northern Vermont) location the 2 100-W solar panels produces up to about 125-135 watts in full sun (I'm sure it would be higher in locations with stronger sun). This recharges the battery in 7-8 hours. I usually just partially recharge the battery once or twice during the days I'm at the cabin when it is sunny, to make it last at least several hours each day during the long weekend that I'm there. Then I take it back home and fully recharge it to be ready for the next trip to the cabin. If I wanted to move the solar panels so they are in the bright sun all day, I wouldn't need to charge it at home. Aside from charging it using home electricity or the two solar panels, there are also cords to allow recharging using a cigarette-lighter type plug in your vehicle. You can also recharge it off of a generator, which we have done on longer trips if there isn't enough sun. I gave it only 4 stars for noise because it has a cooling fan that runs intermittently when in use; in the absolute silence of our cabin, that noise is more than I would like, but really is not bad, maybe as loud as a refrigerator, and MUCH quieter than a generator (which would be our other option). Overall, I am very glad I purchased this; it makes being at the cabin that much more enjoyable knowing that I have enough electric power to keep my electronics powered up, and run our internet satellite dish whenever I need it, all without the noise of a generator.

Very good powerstation. Very efficient. 935 usable wh on 1008wh. It runs my 12v fridge for 5 entire days at 41F in ambiant 77F temp. The fridge use 10% per 12hours , 20% per day or exactly 7,79w per hours. It charges all phones and tablet. It is very lightweight. I bought a anderson extension 10FT to extend the 10FT factory cable of the solar panels. The panels are very good quality, lightweight, good looking, solid with velcro foot and bag to hold the junction and cable fixed to the panel. The javkery charge at 120-125wh in the sun. So it is limited by the embedded mppt charger, however you can exploit more the panel by plugging directly 2 phones or tablet and charge the jackery 1000. It does not reduce the jackery charging. Overall a good product. I just would like more inverter wattage capacity, faster charging ac and more solar charging like the jackery 1500 which is probably a better deal. However the jackery 1000 is the most lightweigh solar generator of 1000w minimum.

I love to be off grid with my Jackery and solar panels. I bought a small car fridge so bought another small Jackery to run the fridge at night. These power banks are well made and work well. The 1000 is a bit awkward if you are older and can’t lift much but I wanted it to use with my cooking appliances. I have used it for a power outage at my apartment. I can run my big Panasonic Genius microwave on 50%. I can run lights or anything that is 1000 watts. I can run two or more things that add up to 1000 watts. The DC outlet on the Jackerys use less electricity and I used those as much as I could for my fridge and electric car blanket. The car can charge the Jackerys as you drive and that will keep things running. I trust the Jackery name for safe and reliable power when travelling and camping off grid.

I recently purchased a Jackery 1000 midway through the winter. I did this because of the power outages that may occur. Upon reviewing it we were excited to try it out and see just what it could do. We started out with small kitchen appliances and slowly moved up to larger electronics, we have used it to charge our phones and iPads. I have started trying it out with my power tools and also recharging the batteries for my cordless tools, so far am quite impressed. I would recommend the Jackery to anyone who is looking for secure backup power. I have yet to try the solar panels, but once it warms up and there is less snow I’m going to see how well they work. I like being able to charge our phones directly off of the solar panels, it very convenient.

As the pictures show in full sun I get about 90w from each panel when only one is plugged in, but about 120w when both are plugged in. This was unexpected because the information is buried in the fine print. Still a good product and the unit charges up quickly. Most of the day is not peak sun, and the panels are still doing lots of work, so it's all good.

These have been a great addition to my camper van. The capacity is enough for me to run my 12v fridge for a few days, charge my laptop and phone, and even run my rice cooker and kettle as long as I have the sun to top it off. Most importantly, the customer service is amazing. I had an issue with the solar panels going spotty and not charging some of the time. I contacted customer service (through Jackery's website, not Amazon) and within a couple emails, they sent two full replacement panels at no cost to me. If I were to buy them again, the only change I'd make is upgrading to maybe a 1500 or 2000 wH model so I could go longer without solar. But this brand and product are awesome and I would definitely recommend them.
