Not bad, not bad at all! It was incredibly well boxed in strong cardboard and, which for items like this tells me the seller is someone who is serious about their products and how well their products present to their buyers.

I’ve used much smaller power banks in the past and they’ve all been pretty reasonable, but I spend more time outdoors and needed to run more electrical units like a 1500 watt room heater, cooling fans and the ability to recharge my phone, Drone batteries, emergency battery powered jumper cables, tire inflater, etc. This is a quiet unit right around 30 dB when running or charging which is incredibly quiet, close to a quiet whisper which is very respectable IMHO especially when sleeping, listening to music at a low volume or out hunting.

After unboxing the Explorer, I plugged it in to completely charge it before use as is suggested in the instructions. It came with 79% charged, so getting to 100% took only a few minutes. The app you can download has an Emergency charging option that significantly decreases the charging time which is an A+ especially on a tight schedule.

I tested the USB ports to make sure they were all functioning properly, which they were. It has 3 AC inputs which is perfect for my present needs. I tested my 1500 watt Space Heater going from fan only to the first heater (750 watt) option, then to the 2nd heater (1500 watt) option and all went very smooth. The second test was to assess the ability for the, up to 3000 watt surge, as is needed in heaters and/or small 1500 watt compressors (you need to know that some types of motors may require more than the 3000 surge watts for startup and choose accordingly.) Starting the heater on HI option II (1500 watts) right off the bat showed the Explorer output climb only 1875 watts then fall to the heaters running watts of 1450.

As for funtionability, everything went perfectly as described. The LED panel looks very impressive, bright and is very professionally done. It has a power saving option set at default in case you forget about it and will turn itself off after 12 hours. This option can be changed if wanted. It appears to be built very solid in case it is accidently dropped, etc. There is also a round inch or so in diameter LED light on the front panel to help one see really well even in complete darkness. There are 3 light settings: low, high and SOS modes and believe me, the light is extremely bright. If you enjoy seeing circles, it’ll get you there.

There’s a cigarette port charging option as well as a DC recharging port that can be utilized from your vehicle’s cigarette port and of course there’s the standard AC recharging port as well.

I was fortunate to have purchased it and the carrying bag for 41% off and compared to the other well-made generators I researched, feel the buy was an excellent choice. At first, I thought $50 bucks for the carrying bag was a bit much, but after receiving it, I’m very impressed with how well and thought out the bag is, so I am very satisfied and feel the $50 was reasonable.

Overall, I give the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 Portable Power Station and Carrying Bag a solid 5 Stars for everything I’ve mentioned above. As for commenting on any Cons, I feel I’d only be nitpicking so I won’t waste either of our times.

Great little unit, solar panels work well, can also charge it with supplied power cord. Easy to carry and use, multiple ports available and Bluetooth capable…simply wow! Love it

This might have been one of my favorite purchases of the year. The overall cost was great since it is on sale at the moment. I have done a ton of research around which system to go with and this by far takes it. Worth every penny. The power is stable and works for all of my device needs. I am able to power a diesel heater overnight while camping for my family and have plenty of power to last a few more days without charging. The overall capacity of power can easily last several days depending on use. The weight is on the higher end so its not as travel friendly but if you are overlanding like I am, the weight is irrelevant. I wouldn’t take this on a hike at all. The size was a little bigger than expected so again, it is meant to stay put while camping or as emergency backup at home.

I live in an area where power outages do happen at least a couple times a year but I work remote from home. This Explorer 1000 has more than enough power to take my server (2 managed POE switches, multiple cameras, router, modem, and power distribution) plus my work computer and water heater to last at least the day. Accompanied with the solar cell, it can last several days.

Tons of power. Charges quickly at home. I bought a different brand solar panel because it was so much cheaper and it works great. It’s heavy but the box itself is tight, which makes it easier to carry. I had another brand years ago with a bulkier package and holding it out another couple degrees from my side made it hurt to carry faster. All the plugs work perfectly so far – I appreciate the high wattage Type C port. The phone app worked, but I don’t particularly use it. I really like being able to see the draw on the display. The display is easy to read. Excellent product.

But I didn’t!
So far this thing has blown me away on its initial outing. I have never used something like this before. I got this instead of a small gas jenny.

It filled 3 queen size air mattresses, 4 Single Tubes (nice ones) a 4 person party island. Charged every electronic device shoved at it, 6 cell phones, a few battery packs, a few (honestly unknown) flashlights, a bunch of kids radios a few times, a mosquitoes coil thing a couple times and we used it to power a USB light off and on for realistically not that long. It only took it down to 71%, so I got home, and plugged in a big box fan and ran it for three hours. It took it down to 60% I am blown away by this.

It shows right on the display the power you are pulling and how long it will last at that level. You can turn the outlets on or off at the AC side or the USB outlets.
With it plugged in and charging it tells you how long it will take.
The solar panels have a charging cable that has a USB port right in it, I never it though.
I reckon if I kept the solar panels adjusted pretty regularly it would take the time quoted to get them charged. That hasn’t been what I have done, but they seem to be doing the job.
Not only would I buy this again. I started show boating it to my friends.
I think this little thing isn’t just functional, it’s awesome.
I might be older then I thought…

Tengo apenas unos días con el, pero se ve robusto y de buena calidad. Es mi primera experiencia con este tipo de productos y después de ver muchos reviews creo que esta marca esta muy solida en el mercado, ademas de un precio muy competitivo

Great power station as the video can demonstrate (The video was all the 5 minutes plus but there was a limit on the amount I can upload so I had to cut some parts off*). In this example I was using the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 to cook a meal using a microwave. It was drawing around 1370~ watts for all of the 5 minutes. It got the job done flawlessly without any hiccups. When it started it was at 84% charge and when it needed it was at 72% so it used a total of 12% of battery for 5 minutes of usage with this amount of power draw. It’s great and more than reasonable. The weight and portability is great! Being lightweight is a big plus! I’ve used this with my computer and monitor drawing around 400 watts and it lasts around 3 hours. Also used to charge my tools batteries, phones and use tower fans during these extreme heat! I love that you can control everything from the Jackery app with ease and you can modify how fast you want to recharge it. Giving you the option to extend your batteries lifetime. I definitely recommend this!

I live in central Florida and although it is seldom, we do have power outages. Most of them are of short duration. On some occasions it could last a few days. I do have an 1800 w duel fuel inverter/generator that I have been using. The struggles with a gas generator are running cords through a window and having the cords strung around.
I purchased the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 as it was one of the top brands that I have been researching. When I saw the price drop, I had to pull the trigger.
My primary mission for this unit is to run the kitchen refrigerator. Anything else in my mind was a plus.
For my test with the refrigerator, I ran the refer on the Jackery power supply for eight hours sitting on the kitchen counter next to the refrigerator. Starting at 100% in eight hours of continuous operation the power unit went down to 53%. Projecting this out, it might run my refer for fourteen hours. In summer months I would expect less as the compressor would run more frequently. When the compressor was running, there was a draw of 132 watts. The Jackery is so quiet that you never hear it. It is handy where it sits on the counter as we can easily plug in the toaster, blender, lights or any other device we might want.
I found that I could recharge the Jackery with my gas generator at a rate of 780 watts even with the refrigerator power being supplied by the Jackery.
I can power so many things with this Jackery and it is so very functional that I purchased a second Jackery Explorer 1000 v2. Now I can power the garage refrigerator at the same time, swap them around and durring an outage have the ability to charge them anytime with my gas generator outside of the garage.
They are small, light weight, and have a nice handle to carry them to different locations.
They will supply enough power that we can sleep all night without being concerned about any power need issues.
These units in tandom with my gas generator could keep us going for weeks as it only takes a couple of hours of running the gas generator to fully charge the Jackery. Life is good!
