Jackery Explorer 300 Portable Power Station,292Wh

It's been 3onths using the 300 Jackery. It's been just asAdvertised. Charges with adapter plug in about 3 hours. Charges everything I throw at it. Of course your not gonna power your fidge or A/C. As for charging electronics and daily mobile devices quickly this thing it tops. I plan to use it near daily just because plugs in my house are not abundant. Happy guy with a reliable chargering device that.carries very easy. Like a oversized lunchbox!. Id buy agian - next time gonna be the Big boy.

I purchased a Jackery Explorer 300 Portable Power Station on 9-1-2020 and it arrived a few days later via FedEX. My decision to purchase the E300 was based on the results of my previous experience with a Jackery E160, E500 and a Jackery E1000. I found the Jackery Power Station to be very useful, easy to use and easy to charge with the Jackery SolarSaga 100W Solar Panel, AC Charger or the Car Port. I use the E300 to power my small electrical devices during the power outages that often occur after storms or traffic accidents in my area. The E1000 will take care of powering my Maytag Refrigerator/Freezer but I needed another power station and I chose one with more capacity than the E160 for some of the longer power outages. I have tested the E300 with several LED & CFL lights that can be used in table lamps and the best one is a 14W Grt Val 1500 Lum LED 'DayLight' bulb, It draws 20 Watts and the E300 will power it for 12-14 Hours from 100% to 10% battery charge levels. The fan will run part time and is very quite. I place the LED light bulb in a small table lamp and it can be moved as needed. You probably already have LED's in your table lights so just use one of them. I also tested a Philips 11 Watt 1000 Lumens LED light for 6 Hours and the E300 charge level decreased from 90% to 60%. I also tested a 5 Watt Onite 400 Lumens USB LED light for 9 Hours and the charge only changed from 90% to 75%. Any of these three choices are a big improvement over my LED lanterns that start out bright but quickly dim unless you run them on low power. As a result of purchasing the E300 I have retired several of my D-Cell LED lanterns that were being used for the power outages and replaced them with table lamps, rechargeable LED Lights and flashlights with rechargeable AA & AAA batteries. I have a UPS to protect my desktop computer that gives me 20 minutes of runtime in a blackout but if I plug the UPS with the connected computer into my E300 I can extend the operating time at least two more hours. My internet also provides my telephone service and the U-Verse modem needs power or I lose telephone service. The Power Lift Chair can operate from the E300. The "Merlin@Home" Transmitter needs power to send pacemaker data and worked just fine when tested. I like having more than one power station because I won't need extension cords for each device that I want to power and that also lets me place then in different parts of the house. The E300 has some new features that were not on the E240. The AC Inverter is now 300 Watts (pure sine wave), the 13.3 Volt regulated car port output has a nice cover and the USB output has 60W PD USB-C, QC3.0 USB-A, USB type A port (2.4A). The MPPT charger provides faster charge rates from solar (5.5H), AC (4.5H) and from a car port (5H). An important feature of the Jackery Explorer 300 is the pass through charging can be used to supply power continuously to a critical load by charging the E300 from the DC Carport on another Jackery Explorer. If the load on the E300 is 75 Watts or less the E300 will stay almost fully charged. The Jackery (E1000, E500, E440, HLS290, E240 or E160) can supply power until their battery is exhausted. This method will allow you to keep the E300 in a critical place without the need to move it outside to recharge by a Solar Panel or Generator. The other Jackery Explorer unit can then be moved and recharged as needed. The DC charging cable you will need is supplied with the Jackery Explorer 300. The E300 is much more useful than just for power outages and I am discovering more uses every day. The E300 provided power when the wife needed a heating pad while setting in a wheel chair a few days ago. I have a solid state Oscilloscope that the Jackery E300 can power for several hours and that makes one of my best pieces of test equipment truly portable. The E160 and the E300 are used to provide power for my Ham Radio equipment when operating at temporary locations. Two things that would help with my Ham Radio Equipment is the addition of Anderson PowerPole connectors on the DC input and DC output. This would help when charging the E300 and powering my radio equipment from the E300. The ability to turn off the "Auto-power off feature when the draw is under 10 watts" would really be handy. This feature is great for saving the battery but not so good when powering tranceivers that are monitoring an emergency radio frequency. You just might miss your call. For maximum battery power, charge Lithium-ion Batteries every 6 months to compensate for the self discharge and for longer life, charge before going below the 20% charge level. The Jackery Explorer 300 is well worth the price and is expected to provide excellent service for many years. Here are some photos of just a few of the items that the E300 can power. Jackery Explorer 300 Waveform; Heating Pad on Wheelchair; AA & AAA Battery Chargers; Rechargeable lights; Ham Radio Equipment; Jackery Explorer 300 with accessories; AC, DC & USB fans; Solar Charging in Morning Sun; Power lift Chair; Oscilloscope; AC, DC & USB Powered Lights

I’m a 100% full time single parent with 2 teens. And with teens you know that means a lot of electronic devices. I need things that work and things that simplify my life. The Jackery 300 has been one of those purchases. It’s not only reliable but really easy to use. Most power outages are not very long lasting. So, I didn’t want to fool with a generator. I imagined how I’d have to check a generator every month. The maintenance. Wheeling the heavy unit around. Getting & storing fuel. Having enough fuel. Making sure the fuel lasts. Struggling to pull start it. The fumes from running it. The loud noise when it actually does run. Not to mention, an easy thousand plus bucks to buy one. All that seems overwhelming for more than 99% of our needs. If the power goes out, no stress, we just grab the Jackery. It’s practically silent and light enough to move around by just about anyone. Is the Nintendo Switch low? No problem. Your Chromebook? Want to run the PS4 or Xbox One? No worries. Your phone, watch, tablet - again - zero stress - just plug it in. Wa-la, problems fixed. It can run fans and a whole host of other devices too - not just your typical tech electronics. During tests, we ran our cable modem / router for many hours to provide WiFi. It accepts regular wall socket type plugs too. Also during our tests, it ran a 55” inch TV along with a PS4 Pro for over 1.5 hours. We even used a disc based game to use even more power. With a smaller screen it’s closer to 2.5 hours. Downloaded games use less power too. The Nintendo Switch uses even less. All that exceeded my expectations. SUPER EASY. Now let’s talk camping, car trips and other family outings. Again, the Jackery 300 is clutch. There’s no need to be concerned about limited outlets in the car to charge or none available at a park or campsite. If I’m going camping - this will always come with us. How nice to run a fan inside the tent during the summer nights! This will instantly get you “glamping”. Tons of options here. The Jackery 300 is also fairly compact and lightweight and weighs in right around 7 1/4 pounds. It’s significantly smaller than the size of a small Igloo Playmate Cooler that I have used as a lunchbox for years. I appreciate that’s it’s powerful but doesn’t take up much space. It’s interface is solid and super easy to understand. All around it’s very intuitive and you can tell everything is very well thought out. It also has you covered with a wide variety of plugs from AC outlet sockets to a car power port to USB-A and the newer USB-C. It even comes with a quality zipper pouch to store your charging cables. Another thing about Jackery is it’s a widely recognized brand with a proven quality track record. Many no name brands are out there that don’t include the device and circuit protections Jackery units do. The last thing I want to do is buy another power station after frying our expensive electronics. I am a believer that when you buy cheap, you often buy twice. This is the top brand in this category of products. I definitely don’t have time to mess with low quality el cheapo brand units. Without boring you with detailed specs, the Jackery 300 produces a very clean stream of power - which is exactly what you want. In layman’s terms, it’s a smooth stream without all the peaks, valleys and surges that can harm your devices. One thing we tend to forget until something happens is what we have on hand for emergencies. This is definitely on my list. If we need to evacuate for any number of reasons (storms, fires, Godzilla - the weirdness of 2020) the Jackery 300 is a must take item. Those in the Prepper, Bug Out and Emergency Preparedness minded communities should be all about this. It can even be fully recharged in just a few hours with the optional Solar Saga solar panel. It can of course be recharged too by your standard home outlet or even your car - and it doesn’t take forever to do it. It also doesn’t alert everyone far and wide that you have power. That might be handy while in a non permissive environment or even a noise restricted campsite. In today’s age and with everything going on, this should really be a staple device in our homes. I feel better just knowing it’s on hand. It’s one less thing to worry about. Lastly, I plan on buying another for my senior citizen mother too. That alone should say a lot! TLDR: Zero regrets with this purchase. It’s an absolute no-brainer.

Every thing is ok. It is doable for one night camping but it is not enough for two nights camping if use an electric refrigerator. Also, it shown the available hours when you charging but it is weird that different wattage has the same hours. It is worth of the value, and recommend to have it if you like camping.

I've had this generator for about 5 months. I'm a market vendor and a singer, and i have various events about 3 times a week. arriving early for set up and leaving late after breaking down means long event days. i often charge my phone (which is also my card reader), my ipad, a powerful high quality speaker, and portable fans in the summertime - all at the same time with this generator. they're plugged in all day, all devices stay fully charged, and the generator will still come home with a percentage of battery life left. the car charger is an added bonus. sometimes i have 2 events in one day, and it's nice to give the generator a boost while i'm driving to the second event. 2nd bonuses are it's lightweight and makes zero noise. I hope i still feel the same more months from now but in the meantime, thank you for making this product.

We camp a lot and also have a cruising boat. This is a must-have for both environments. Compact, seems well made, holds its charge well. The bigger sizes will give you more power, but this is great for charging phones and iPads. We went camping recently for a week and it charged two phones all week without needing to be plugged back in.

I recently had the opportunity to try out the Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 300, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in every way. This compact and versatile power station has become an essential companion for all my outdoor adventures and emergency situations. First and foremost, the Explorer 300 delivers an impressive amount of power. With a capacity of 293 watt-hours and a pure sine wave inverter, it can handle a wide range of devices, from smartphones and tablets to laptops, cameras, and even small appliances. I was pleasantly surprised by its ability to charge multiple devices simultaneously without any loss in performance. The design of the Explorer 300 is sleek and compact, making it incredibly portable. It weighs just under 7 pounds and features a convenient carrying handle, making it easy to transport wherever you go. The durable and rugged exterior ensures that it can withstand the rigors of outdoor use, whether you're camping, hiking, or engaging in any other off-grid activity. One of the standout features of the Explorer 300 is its versatility. It boasts multiple charging options, including a 12V carport, AC outlet, and three USB ports. Additionally, it supports solar panel charging, allowing you to harness renewable energy and stay powered up even in remote locations. This flexibility is a game-changer, as it provides a reliable power source for extended periods without the need for traditional outlets. The user-friendly interface of the Explorer 300 deserves special mention. The informative LCD screen provides real-time data on battery level, input/output wattage, and remaining runtime. It also features a user-friendly power button and simple controls for adjusting settings, making it effortless to operate and monitor. One area where the Explorer 300 truly shines is its impressive battery management system. Equipped with advanced safeguards, such as temperature control, voltage surge protection, and short circuit prevention, it ensures the safety of your devices and the power station itself. I felt confident using it to charge my delicate electronics, knowing that they were protected from potential harm. While the Explorer 300 is undeniably powerful and reliable, it is not completely silent. The built-in cooling fan can be audible when the unit is under heavy load, although it is not overly disruptive. However, it's worth noting that the noise level is far outweighed by the unit's exceptional performance and capabilities. In conclusion, the Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 300 is an outstanding power solution for those who require a reliable, portable, and versatile power source.

The Jackery Explorer 300 is the sweet spot for portable power! It’s lightweight, compact, and super easy to throw into the car for camping, fishing trips, or road trips. It handles charging phones, laptops, drone batteries, and running small electronics effortlessly. Paired with a solar panel, it recharges quickly and gives complete peace of mind off-grid. Highly recommend!

I bought this specifically for powering my CPAP unit when on camping trips. Previously, I had been bringing along a 12 V deep cycle marine battery for 2 to 3 day trips and this is more than enough for a weeks worth of nights using the CPAP, but it’s bulky and heavy. When I camp, I use a Phillips dream station CPAP with a pressure setting of 7.0 and I remove the humidifier from the unit, and I do not have a heated hose, so the only draw is from the blower motor itself. This is where the new Jackery E300 comes into play. I have a DC power adaptor for my CPAP unit, so I plug it into the DC input on the Jackery. I tried it inside the house, kind of as a control sample, to see how many nights I could get off of a full charge. I was very pleased with the results. I ended up getting 4 full nights totalling 35 hours of CPAP run time. There was 2% left after night 4. I’m going on a 2 night trip next weekend, so I am quite confident that I will be able to power my CPAP with this unit in the outdoors even if the temperature gets down to around zero at night. I will update this review after my trip, but so far, I am very pleased with this purchase - and it only weighs 7 pounds. UPDATE: I just came back from the two night camping trip and I used my Jackery to power my CPAP in the woods. I started off with 100% charge, and after two nights I was only down to 71%. I even used it to charge my phone and bluetooth speaker on the second night. It was -3 both nights, so I was getting very similar numbers outside in that cold compared to inside my warm house. I am satisfied with this purchase. I look forward to many more nights of using this unit.

We were advised of a scheduled power outage (North Vancouver) to last from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., however the utility company ran into problems, so the power was off for more than 24 hours. I'd bought this unit because of the notice and not wanting to be stuck in the dark; wanted to be able to use some lighting in my apartment, however, it was a real game changer; it ran my 42" TV, along with programs I'd previously downloaded to my laptop; charged my iPhone; was able to use my heating pad, as the temperature for the 24 hrs was around 5 Celsius and, a small coffee maker. When I was finished using the unit for at least 6 hours, it still had a 43% charge. Definitely recommend - a very worthwhile purchase!

Great little companion to my huge home battery back-up. Extremely portable and charges fast. Don't try to power anything like a large appliance but for small stuff it works great. Have used it with power tools to repair my car, LEDs during black outs, laptop etc. Thinking of giving it as a Christmas gift next year.
