Explorer 160 Portable Power Station

This is of course just an idle conversation thread as I sit in the house gazing out at the winter scene. We use a Goal Zero 150 that was recommended a few years ago by Jenn. It works well for us as a small recharge power source. At night we have it on the back shelf and recharge our small electronics. It has served us well. I have only seen mention of Jackery products in a generator discussion. As I was reading the news this morning, I saw their link displayed, and like a good little surfer, I clicked it and saw their different products. I am not in the market for one, just to clarify, and I know there are opinions on these batteries/inverter types, but the small units they advertised look pretty neat. I was just wondering if anyone has used the Jackery power stations and what did they think?

Considering Jackery 500 or something comparable to suplement the stock 80ah battery in my 320. Read many good reviews about it.2017 T@B 320S 2019 Jeep Cherokee - Southern Connecticut

I did not look at specs at all. I looked up the 500 and found it on Amazon for about $499.

I also saw one for sale new from NJ on ebay for $220. That might be iffy, but I've haven't gotten bitten yet on ebay. Other places... once only.Terry & Jody... 2025 Honda Ridgeline RTL

One thing to look at when co soldering these different brands, especially with a little more wattage is to ensure they are using a pure sin wave inverter if you are going to use with a laptop or more expensive electronics.
