Ratings & Reviews for Jackery Explorer 550 (550Wh) 500 -Watts Portable Power Station (Battery Included and Charger Not Included)

Great package, gets you solar right out of the box

The complete kit for emergency or camping power. You can run a kitchen fridge on this system all night long without the gas generator noise, just keep the kids away from the fridge to maximize its insulation (i.e., doors closed to the maximum). The panels don't give you 200W total, but they get close. On the summer solstice in FL I was drawing 180W at midday, about par for the course with solar panels - you get 80% of what the rating is at peak output. On the 1st day of summer it took about 8...

Excellent Product

Everything about this purchase went great from start to finish.

As a power bank, this one is good.

Bought this to run my CPAP machine while I was camping. I have tried it and it works perfectly. Used it for two nights and it still had power. It came about half charged and I was able to quickly charge it to 100%. I would buy this unit again

Should not be used while charging.

Seems to work fine. I noticed in overview, before ordering, that it could be used while charging. After receiving I noticed the manual stated it should not be used while charging. May cause damage to the battery. Would you please correct this and advise which is correct.

the same reviews

you all put the same exact reviews on the other generator. so what is the truth. both of them cannot have the same review. so now I have to try something else because your reviews are not trustworthy.

I bought the 550 +100w solar panel for my son who always has his portable tv/dvd player and a fan when we travel and for power outages. This 550 is the best, hands down. Used it for 4 days and only dropped down to 70 percent. Running nonstop. Charging overnight while he slept. I'm thinking about getting myself one here soon. Need something for the duel zone fridge freezer I'm getting. I've recommended these to everyone I know who camps with us. So we don't have to keep listenin...

Jackery!

Arrived in excellent condition, easy to charge. Haven't had to use yet, but it is all charged up and ready for my next power outage.

Solar Panel Charges Quickly

It recharges quickly. I tested it by charging my laptop and it did not drain the entire battery. So it appears to serve its purpose for small appliances. Also, the solar panel charged the battery in just a few hours.

Awesome for CPAP while camping.

Used this to run my cpap while camping and was able to run it 2 nights and still had plenty of power for air pumps and other electronics. Awesome and light weight1
