Jackery Explorer 300 Plus Portable Power Station, 288Wh Backup LiFePO4 Battery, 300W AC Outlet, 3.75 KG Solar Generator for RV, Outdoors, Camping, Traveling, and Emergencies (Solar Panel Optional)

Well I was going to order the 500 for my cpap machine so when I go camping I can use it without needing to alway camp near power I did some research and found out with plugging in the machine into the ac outlet and using no hose warmer and not humidifier I’d get 8-9 hours of use I the do to ac adapter I got 4 7-8 hour runs on my machine I did it twice for a total of 8 nights with same results with no heated hose or humidifier I’m sure I can use it for a 3 biter with also charging cell phone or laptop but I’m very happy with it’s performance and power ability’s it charges really fast it’s small and easy to store and makes no noise can sleep with it next to your head if you had to this thing is awesome and well built and it does everything it claims to and for under a dollar a watt cone with charging cable direction and a bright light still can’t get over how small it is and works perfect for my use

I'm a scout leader and do a fair amount of camping. I recently got a CPAP and needed something that would power it. I was skeptical of this little thing when I got it but really wanted something reasonably portable and sturdy that I can toss in the back of my truck or troop trailer when packing, would last at least 2 nights camping, and would be easy enough to carry for a few miles to a camp staff building where I could charge it if needed. I'm happy to say after my first weekend trip with it I believe it will be all of those things for me. My first night I got it I tested it out at home. Charged the unit up and plugged my CPAP into the AC inverter with my machine running as I would normally use it at home... The battery only lasted about 5 hours any my wife complained about a slight fan noise (from the inverter) before giving out. I plugged the Jakery in to charge and power pass though worked great until the unit was charged then it stopped and switched back over to battery mode and the battery ran down again. Night two I plugged in a DC adaptor I purchased for my CPAP and found I could almost make it though a night. The Jackery lasted about 7hrs before the battery was dead. Proving the DC converter was more efficient. My 3rd night I ran the machine with the DC power converter turning off the humidifier, heated tube, and (something else). This time the battery was only at 87% after 7.5hrs of sleep. Note this was my first time turning all the comfort features off on the CPAP and it really was not that big of a deal. Yes nice to have but not musts for me. Having proven itself I took it camping with us this weekend and it worked great. I used my CPAP both nights, charged my phone and watch off it while still having about 60% power left. I am pretty sure it will make it the full week through summer camp without charging and if it does need charged it seems I can charge to 100% in about 2hrs on AC if needed. Yes I could buy the solar panels but it seems like one more thing to hope does not get broken and most of the time our camp sites are in the woods with a fair amount of shade. I'm wondering how the battery will hold up during winter camping and I'm sure as we start training and doing more backpacking trips I'l need something smaller and lighter but for now this fits my requirements. Looking forward to more well rested nights in the woods and while at anchor on our boat.

Bought 2 years ago, charged and sat on the shelf unused until now with the power being knocked out by a storm. This battery held it's charge at 100% these past 2 years. My phone, laptop and the units emergency light running; providing time until depleted which says 15hrs. I think this unit would last for about 2 days of usage if I shut everything off when I goto sleep and turn it back on tomorrow evening or a midday charge. Great to have in an a emergency! Quality stuff! Lightweight. Great value.

I bought the Jackery Explorer 300 and the day it was delivered I found out this newer model existed, so I returned it and ordered the 300 plus. There is no power brick to lug around. The AC charger (included) plugs right into the wall and is the same standard AC cord that my computers have used for decades. I don't know how many amps this thing pulls so I will try not to lose the cord. It charges at 199 watts from a standard wall outlet. It's a little bit bigger, taller, wider, thicker and heavier than the 300, but not by much. The two 100 watt USB C outlets are perfect for my needs and the AC outlet works. There is no 12V car charger included. I'm using the 12V out from the 300 and plugging it into the included USB C adapter. It's charging at about 55 watts from the 300 and the cigarette lighter charger in my car but only if I use the cable from the older 300 model, which I have to return. I cannot get it to charge with a USB C cable plugged into a an AC adapter the way I did with the earlier model. My iPad charger and my phone charger do not charge this thing. I have a Samsung charger which puts out 45 watts, it does not charge the Jackery Explorer 300 plus at all. All of these chargers work with the Explorer 300. My new laptop charger does charge it at about 64 watts. I don't know if it can charge with both wall current and USB C at the same time and will update this when I find out, that could cut charging time in half, the way it did on the previous model. No 12V DC charger is included. There is no way to charge this with my car without the 12V DC cable from the Jackery Explorer 300. The 300 plus should not have shipped without this cable and the company is out of stock of 12V DC cable until next month. If you need to charge it with your car you will need to get creative. I was allowed to keep the cable from the 300 for $16, so it's alright. If they had included that absolutely essential cable I would have rated this 5 stars. It comes in handy.

This is the best little travel generator ever! Lasts long, we had it running for 12 hours straight and it still had 30% battery left. Charges up really quickly and lasts long. We bought this little thing to take camping with us to hook up a CPAP machine. It worked amazing! 1000 recommend

I specifically purchased to run my CPAP machine during power outages. Cons only one AC outlet. Pros runs my CPAP for six hours vs the Bluetti which only lasted between 3.5-4.5 hours. Sturdy built yet surprisingly light weight. Charges from 0-100 in 1.5 hours from AC. I have not tried solar as we are on the Westcoast and it is winter. I wish I had bought the jackery first as it is what I needed. The bluetti was not worth the money is not as sturdy built, weighs more. And you cannot return them unless defective. As a woman in her 60’s I appreciate the compact size and light weight of the jackery.

**Be careful as there are 2 versions of this powerstation. One has 2x100W USB-C and the other has 1-USB-C in/our and a 15W USB-C. There are 2 different sets of photos used in this amazon advertisement. The Jackery Website is the same. YouTuber reviews are for the 2x100W versions that aren't available anymore. You will receive the powerstation with 1 -100w USB-C + 15W USB-C (plus 15w USB-A)** I use this as my car travel power station. It powers a compressor cooler/car fridge that draws 35W-55W. Runs the cooler for 24hours in summer temperatures. In the back of the car running the 60L cooler, after 9 hours the Jackery 300 was down to 64%. When we stopped for the night at a hotel, we would plug the Jackery in on the nightstand (there’s usually only one AC outlet on a lamp) and plug all our phones/ipads and use the AC outlet for C-PAP. Just make sure it’s set to 12h or 24H for C-PAP or you will be gasping in the night as it only draws 35W(AC outlet) and the Jackery will shut off. Charging: Charges fast, usually shows 208W or higher. When charging iPads AND charging the Jackery, the wattage is higher. Usually 250w, so I’m guessing this is the “pass through” charging for the devices plugged into the Jackery and the battery charger for the Jackery. If you are traveling, plugging it in at a Starbucks/fast food restaurant for half an hour or so will take you from 25% to 70%. Solar charging is fiddley using the adapters and the in/out USB-C port. 100W panel seems throttled to 45W when charging. I wish it had a proper 8040 plug or Anderson plug for solar input. When solar charging, you lose one of the USB-C ports, the 100W one. Leaves you with the 15W USB-C, really not great, needs more ports and 15W isn't enough to use a hub. The app works OK to control the AC/DC/light, but you can’t turn the main Jackery Power ON or OFF. You have to physically push the power button on the Jackery, then the app will work. I have a 300W/600W mini Ramen cooker. When set to 300W, it draws 322W (see picture) and the Jackery cuts off after 45 seconds or so. So the 300W inverter doesn’t have any wiggle room, 300W, that’s it!! The display is bright and easy to read/figure out. I find it to be very useful, decently portable and so far…well built.

Great product

Just right for the job I need. Small but powerful.
