It was wonderful seeing DaWoof. She's so pretty. I loved your product demonstration, Brooke. Thanks for sharing
The BEST ❤ PART (for me) of this channel today was seeing Maisy … I have missed her. The Yurt is amazing 😮
Yes me too! ❤❤❤ so glad to see her! ❤
Me too !
Ditto
Yes! ❤
So excited to see Maisy…she is beautiful and I have missed her! Love your new Yurt!!!❤❤❤
So very happy to see Da'woof Maisy on this vid!
Great to see Maisy again, and great to see you being creative again, take care.X💕🏴
Da "WOOF" gives the generator two "paws" up😊
Awe Maisy ♥️ haven't seen her in a while glad to see her🙂
I do pray she has several more years…in decent health! ❤
It was exciting to see her!!
You and Dave are totally awesome. Thanks for letting the rest of the world into your lives. Have a very Merry Christmas and God bless you. Kurt in Idaho
We totally concur 😊
I’m loving this yurt project. Happy to see you posting more frequently! ❤
THAT PLACE IS THE CUTEST AND BY FAR MY FAVORITE NEXT TO DAVES LITTLE CABIN. GREAT, GREAT JOB TRULY!
Thanks so much! 😊
I’ve been using a couple jackerys- they’ve held up, easy to use- I’d recommend. Got a good deal at Costco.
I love mine. My grandsons were thrilled when i gave them theirs.
For the panels, they need full sun and not partial sun. I have two jackerys. A small portable one that I purchased with the solar panels years ago. I love it for short camping trips to power a fan and lights and charge up my phone and iPad. It has plenty of juice for several days off grid. Recently I got the jackery 1000 and it is great. Can power a lot more with it, esp if we have a power outage. Can run my dash appliances and a small heater. Even fine for my induction cooker on low power. They power up fast when plugged into an electrical outlet so I keep them charged up. But the solar panels cannot have even a shadow on them or they don’t charge at all. They must have full sun. But that is true of most solar panels.
Your Yurt is so cute.
Love the yurt!!! Merry Christmas to you and your family. God bless. ❤
God Bless you Brooke and your family!❤🙏🏻
I spotted Da Woof 🥰
😊
Wife and I have and use Jackery, three different sized batteries. It’s not unusual for our power to go off, way out in the country, where we live. We haven’t used our solar panels yet…as they are slow to charge. Love your yurt…and your multiple other cabins too, beautiful property. Thank you for sharing your buildings…from an old fan, retired in the foothills of the Smokies.
Jackery "Solar" generators are awesome, and are my primary choice for emergency backup and remote location power. I started
out with an Explorer 500 which sees daily use, recharging from roof solar panels, and being used to power smaller power banks, flashlights, radios, and multiple other 12 volt and USB items. For more serious use, I opted for an Explorer 1500, and it works great in "the back 40" when I need to recharge tools or use A/C. Then I decided I needed more power and longer life with more charge cycles, and bought an Explorer 2000v2, which I love!
I think you chose wisely, Brooke! Nice yurt, too!! ❤
I agree! The Jackery Solar Generators are awesome!
@@therealgirlinthewoods I forgot to say HI! to da Woof!!
I googled: "Why is there a lack of winter sun in Michigan." AI response was that cold air moves over the warmer lakes (the Great Lakes,) drawing large amounts of moisture from said lakes, and forms a cloud cover in the Troposphere over most of Michigan for most of the wintertime. I learn something new every day watching these way cool vids , thanks!
P.s. That Jackery solar power generator is boss! Oh, glad to see Maisie is doing well. Cool bens.
Looks great, thanks for the review. It looked like the solar plugs next to the jackery needed to be plugged into the holes. Would love a follow-up video if you get the solar working
I live in a van. Obhave a 2000 watt bluetti. I ise 2 - 200 watt Acopower panels on top. They do fantastic. Soon as I find some land i will need to do as you are doing so thank you so much for that review
Bluetti seems to be ok, but some reviews aren't as good as Jackery. Maybe it's because Bluetti is made in China and Jackery is made in USA. I'll pay extra for the USA quality.
Jackery looks like the perfect power for you , love it , will research it I need to get something for power outages
Great idea using a dolly. Even with the built-in wheels it's not easy to move around.
For sure! It's a beast of a generator.
I love the Jotul stove. I worked in a fireplace store since 1977. That was the first unit I ever saw. I had to have one.
Great video, I hadn't considered a Jackery.
Thank you, Stay Blessed 🙏❤
I too, am happy to see Daisy. I love her and have missed her. Moose too!
Any timeline on when you’re beginning on your log cabin build? I’ve been pretty excited about it ever since you chopped down this trees and stripped their bark!
Happy to see your collie. My favorite dog. We had 12.
Brooke it was wonderful seeing dear Daisy-Maisey again! I love me your ittle Moose but Daisy will always have a sweet spot in my heart. The woodshed was cute, simple and practical. As always I enjoy all your videos.
Pretty sure you just nailed a solid sponsor for your channel if you want it, that was a great review! You were completely honest on both sides of the fence, I have the smallest Jackery that I use for primitive car camping, the solar panels do a good job when you have sunlight. Do you mind sharing what string lights you use; I could never find an energy-efficient option. As usual, you are such an inspiration!
It seemed to do everything you could possibly throw at it, but at $2,000-$3,000 it had better😂

It worked great but it doesn't seem to be much of a solar chargeable generator.
@@TakeTheRideit should work better in locations that get plenty of sun. My house faces due south and we have deciduous trees that will help with winter charging.
I like it- I’ll let my husband watch your video and then we’ll decide for our Up North cabin use-I’ll gladly do a video on TH-cam to review a Jackery - Exciting, Brooke! I’m happy for you! We cannot wait to journey back Up North to our cabin in the woods 🌲
All the best to you and your family-wishing y’all a blessed Christmas and hoping all is well with your dear Momma
***thanks for the honest review
I hear nothing but good about these little units. And i am lovin your little home away from home.
I can Give the Thumbs Up to Jackery as well and Have tested their solar panels when good sunshine was available and they produce very good numbers compared to others on the market, just FYI and anyone who is interested. Michigan Winter and Sunshine are the true definition to an Oxymoron. Best wishes Brooke
Last winter we went 21 days in a row without sunshine in Gaylord, Michigan. I cannot imagine having to rely on solar power up north.
*There wasn't a comment box for me. I can only reply. Strange.😮😢
Thank you Jay and Jen!!
Thanks for the solar panels review. I'm hoping it works where I live in agricultural zone 8. We usually get plenty of sun even in winter.
Hi Maisy❤❤❤
Hi Brooke . I love ❤ your Yurt. It is very nice. It was so good to see Maisy ❤ and the little wolf 😊 I hope you can get the solar to work with the jackery it was very nice also.
Merry Christmas to you and your whole family
Thanks for the video, I was so happy to see Daisy Hope you and your whole family has a wonderful holiday season❤
Thanks so much for your Jackery review. I've been looking to get one for several years now. I want to use it for off grid camping and a backup power source for outages. You mentioned the ease of use and quality. That's the two things I've been seeing as well. I also like that it's made in the US. I hope you're able to get the solar panels to work. I live in a more southern region of the US and have a good location to test out the solar panels. I think you've sold me on Jackery, I just need to decide which size works best for my needs. The yurt looks great.
I have an Anker 2000, similar to your set up. It charges great in the summer, no problem. Our cabin is about 10 miles out of Copper Harbor in the UP. I absolutely love your yurt!!
Great to see you Brooke, as well as Maisey and Da Moose!! ❤️❤️❤️
thanks for the ad. you're the third off grid channel on my subscription list to do this.
I appreciate this honest review as I have been wondering about a Jackery. Anyway, I have an Anker solar battery similar to Jackery, I use our gas generator to charge it back up when their is no sun. It really only takes about 30 minute. I was surprised that Jackery took 2 hours to recharge.
Again, thank you. I'm greatly inspired by your channel. I bought all the tools, now just need to start using them 👍👍👍
What wattage is the Anker rated at? It may be the difference. Also, Anker products are fairly well made for Chinese products. I'll take my chances with the Jackery that's made in the US.
I freaking LOVE my Jackery. I have a little explorer 300. It is amazing
DA WOOF!!!!🥰
Great setup, Brooke. Loving the yurt!
Thank you for the review. Just as a note you need to plug the wires into the adapters. No biggie. I have a smaller Jackery but You just sold be on an upgrade. Curious how it’d hold up with the Harbor freight solar panels Dave had reviewed a few years back. My shed conversion is in Northern Ny and I also struggle for good sunlight. My research is telling me their battery products are great but the pricing on the solar panels are a bit high (May split up).

We quit our careers to travel the country this year, ended up in Maine and are thinking about it homesteading here…we have been looking at yurts! I’m currently working the pool at camp here. It’s been an incredible year! One day I hope to live a life like you :) so inspiring
That is awesome!
I like the fact that it has the 30 amp output that you can plug right into a 30 amp service on a small cabin or an RV. And between your solar panels in a small back up inverter generator, it’s really all anybody would ever need in an area that gets a lot of cloud cover like Michigan. I know I grew up in the UP and I have a cabin on some acreage up there, and sometimes the sun just doesn’t exist lol. Thanks for the info.
Love the Yurt! You amaze me!!
Que lindo video mi Querida amiga.❤ Abrazos bendiciones
Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
People asked my why I bought a crappy lil 1200 w gas generator..said it don't do nuthin..I said..yeah it does..it quick charges my Jackery when the sun don't shine an that runs EVERYTHING!!
We use our gas generator to charge up our Jackery when there is not enough solar… it doesn’t take long and the Jackery then saves us fuel cost because we don’t have to run the gas generator all night👍
Yup that’s what I was thinking too
That looks like a great system for an off grid house! How many days do you think it would last if you were not running power tools? You had the right angle adapters plugged in, but not the actual charging cables, which is probably why your panels were not charging.
We've been a Jackery family for years. We love them!!! But you're right about the sun here in Michigan. It showed up yesterday at 4pm. I stuck my face out and soaked it in and then night came. Uggg
Jeepsy Gene here. I just bought a Bluetti AC200L. I love it, but no sun. I just ordered Champion generator to power up my Bluetti. There's always a solution for every problem. This is it for now.
That’s great you can plug it in to your truck!
nice place you have and thank you for sharing
So sad you don’t get hardly any sunshine 😢 always good to see your beautiful smiling face 😊
I'm so glad to see the da- wolf 😊
You can’t charge on late winter days full of shadows. The fact that it charges 3,000 watts in two hours is crazy though. Pretty impressive and proves that it will charge well with solar when you have real sun. When I don’t have sun, I charge mine in my car that I leave idling, and that works well when I don’t have a generator.
Jackery set up is nice!! I would have plugged all panels in.The one down fall for me, the cost. Excellent video!!!💯👍Merry Christmas to you, family and all!🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
Great battery… Awe, yeah, definitely didn’t plug 🔌 in the solar panels cords… Those were just the added tips.
They were plugged in correctly the first time shown... In the second attempt though, yes it were just the adaptrers that were plugged in. Not sure if the panels were facing correctly.
Always good to see Moose!!!!
Like many others on TH-cam, it's very easy to recommend or give a good review on something when you are given it for free. Specially something that sells for $2500 and up. May be on sale but still quite expensive.
It’s not easy to recommend something- that’s why I never do it. People always think there’s an ulterior motive but really it’s just a share of useful information of something I would genuinely buy or use. Take it or leave it.
A nice unit to consider. Did you find out if you had the panels plugged in right?? I really like the size and shape of your wood stove. A little different than the norm. Great, short video. Thanks Brooke.
thanks yeah they were in wrong
Loved seeing Maisy again! Love that girl. I have 2 of the outdoor rocking chairs like yours. I want to say I got them at kmart over 20 years ago. I always look forward to your channel!
This is amazing! Great job putting it all together.
Thinking of purchasing a property along a river or lake myself and doing the same. I’m an outdoors girl who loves to fish, hike and cook!
I have the same Jackery. I wasn't getting any input either come to find out I had the cables in wrong.
3000 watts is fine for how much it can deliver at one time ... but how much power can it store ... that is rated by watt-hours.
Thanks for this video 📹 love it I'm gonna get one
I'm sure someone already suggested this, but it looks like you need to plug the cable into the adapter when charging solar. The adapter is only tethered with rubber. 9:13
I bought the 300! It will mostly be for a couple of days camping and a trip to Disneyland next year where we are driving.
Love your little Yurt :) I am trying to setup enough power to run my full time cabin, The power station looks like a good unit 😊, Take care Stay warm"
Just an idea, but maybe you should actually plug the solar panels in the the jackery next time. 9:13
Yeah, but look at the first one she plugged in, it WAS correct. I'm confused why she's pretending to do it wrong.
@@ShinyNickelBladeswouldn't say pretended as the first go didn't work so tried something else. Granted not enough sun to do much, but My thought was the panels were backwards. Rewatch the first try when the panel side flipped around.
@@bsekisser maybe both the cord AND the adapter need to be plugged in. It just doesn't make sense why she would plug in only the adapter.
You seriously don’t see every moment in a video. This is not a conspiracy or scam for crying out loud
I missed that as well! She had one panel correctly plugged in
DaWolf , Maisy love you girl glad to see you. Brooke glad you showed the jackery station I want to get one for my shuttle bus.
Jackery nice. Expensive. But hey yeah they’re quality
@@jecrpalier I have learned that "cheap" is usually junk. Jackery seems to be high quality. It's the price we pay for reliable modern convenience.
@ maybe but without the solar option it’s just a big battery that’s it. Not really an off grid without sunlight
I wish I could afford one of those!! I need one for when our power goes off to run my oxygen machine and a small fridge for my moms diabetic meds!! Anyway enough about me..great video Brooke!!✌🐢
How did you charge that baby? day after day of full sun? a wall outlet? a generator?
wall outlet under 2 hours!
@@therealgirlinthewoods Not bad, that's about how long my old Ryobi batteries take to charge up enough to use a drill :)
Just a thought, but since it's winter (low sun angle), you're in the woods, and you're pretty far north (low sun angle), but why not move the wood shed out in the open and set the panels on the roof?
Awesome great video ! That Jackery looks like a good deal for your building projects 👍,
You really have to adjust the solar panels to the right angle. Even though there are legs you need to change the angle. We love our Ecoflow.
I want the new Jackery 5000 with the transfer switch for my addiction. Good review. 👍
That is also an available feature on the 3000!
They have new wind technology.
Here's a thought for Jackery, et al.: devise accessories that will allow your units to store power from sources other than solar panels and the power grid. This would be very helpful for Upper Peninsulators, Forks, Wash-ers, Arctic Circlers, etc. I note that Bio-Lite makes large versions of their wood (or other bio-fuel) stoves that also generate electricity.
Kris Harbour, a TH-camr and homesteader in Wales, where solar power is not a year-round energy source sufficient to supply his house and machine shop needs uses a home-made windmill, and a hydroelectric plant of his own manufacture to supply his needs. (He also designs hydro plants for others.)
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Awesome power, Brooke
Hello Brooke 🤗 Love your Yurt 🛖 The Jackery seems nice 👍 Have a good day🎄☃️❄️❤️
go jack (ery) of all trades! be well brookie! happy holidays!
I’m concerned about the Solar System not working…that’s the main reason I’ve been wanting to purchase one.
I’m in Oklahoma and we get these ice storms that knock out our grids for many weeks at a time and there isn’t any way to charge anything back up. I don’t want a gas powered one because of the noise and fire risks in our high winds.
Please let us know if you find a really kick a** solar one that works great 👍🏻 because we do get a lot of sun here
If you get sun Jackery works great. I have one here in western New York for the same reasons. My Jackery charges in the winter sun just fine when we need it to. The trick is getting sun when you need it. But that is why we maintain it at full and ready.
@ will yours power a full size fridge? That’s mainly what I need it for
Yes I didn’t include it in my review but I powered our home fridge for 4 hours did great!
Looking good there!!!
😮so good to see Mazie (wolf)!!!!
OMG! You are funny. The cable adapters only. Love your videos.
Aww Maisy!!! ❤ miss her
Great review Brooke!
Christmas came early! Mr Moose and Ms Maisey!!
Put the panels in shade = no charge. The higher you can get the panels, the more sun you can get. A simple manual elevator can facilitate that
You are a genius.!!❤
Great video! 🥰
I wish I had your carpentry skills. I need to take a course or have a handyman partner.
Da Woof! Love seeing her!
