    peace of mind

    Perfect size for my needs. It's comforting to have this ready to charge the essentials (esp phone) if a major power outage occurs. Also will take with me to off-grid cabin for reliable power. My son has the larger version and highly recommended I get this.

    Jackery Explorer 500

    We bought the 500 to power a small refrigerator for medicine when traveling. The fridge draws about 50 watts. It came charged about 50% so we could try it out immediately. It did take 3-4 hours to fully charge. We found it runs much longer than we thought it would. We do pre cool the fridge. This is quite a game changer for us as the medicine is very expensive and we can't risk it getting warm. The digital display makes it easy to see how much battery is left. Haven't used the the usb outlets so can't comment on them. Overall very pleased we got the jackery. I did notice a few days after purchasing it the price dropped $15. I reached out to Jackery, they responded within 6 hours. They were very good about crediting us the difference. Great customer service! Definitely would buy again.

    Dear Readers,
    We bought this power source primarily to use on a lift chair during electrical outages. It does much more and we appreciate the quality, functionality and peace this unit brings. Fred A

    A little on the pricy side but worth it. Highly recommended for camping.
