As an 80 yr. old woman who lives in Southern Vermont and just went through a pretty severe snowstorm 10 days ago (23” total snowfall) with 3 days of no power-no phone, I was pretty excited to see this video. The downside is my worry of those horrid dark, cloudy days without sun. I’m afraid of the big, giant gas generators. But, this is something to really investigate as an answer to the power-outage problems of bad, bad weather. (The other thing for me to investigate is becoming a “snowbird” & not participating in this winter nonsense at all!!😂) Love all your videos through the years, BTW👌)
Thanks so much for this comment! I think a solar generator or large battery bank would be a great option for you. Just keep it charged from the wall, when you do have power!
I know exactly what storm you're talking about. My friend and I drove 3 hours into the storm heading south back home into Massachusetts. I heard some places hardly got anything and then the next town over got dumped on.
@@Tylnorton True story… I live in Chester, along the Connecticut River. I swear we get the very worst of whatever snowfall happens everywhere else in Vermont. Hope you were safe & sound in your travels. Three days without power along with the AT&T tower knocked out (which, of course is my carrier😜), is not my idea of “off grid” living for this old lady…
@@suemcknight9051 We made it home and sound! Vermont is very nice! I am glad you were safe even with the power down with the AT&T tower too. May the better days ahead be with you for the better with Spring!
I totally understand and went through the same concerns. I invested in something called an inverter generator which is what you need to recharge your solar generator when it’s more than a day or two of poor solar. You will have to store gasoline and rotate it and run the small generator every month to keep it running, but it is the only way to keep yourself charged up when the solar isn’t great. I love my solar generators which I have as emergency backup power, but I still use them every month to fully understand what they can and can’t do and so I’m not flustered keeping things running in a real outage. I’ve had a couple of short term outages since getting into this type of power, and they are absolutely amazing. When you have good solar conditions, they run perfectly but the least little bit of cloud cover kills performance so the inverter gas generator is necessary for a longer outage situation. Unfortunately.
PURE SINE WAVE! Thank You folks, I hate monday moron Qbacks but I have to be one here, Sorry. The greatest selling point no one mentions is the PURE SINE WAVE technology. Standard generators and back up power systems have erratic power output. This erratic electrical signal can damage today's HI tech electronics. Pure Sine Wave output sources are the cleanest electricity and even better then the "grid"! If I traveled in something bigger then my motorcycle I would buy a Jackery system just for this protection of all my electrical items. Thank You so much for the endorsement of this product. You are in my prayers Hoka Hey
I really enjoyed watching this one not only to learn about the jaquari but to see a little of your Tiny House. All we ever see is you pointing to it at the beginning of your videos. ❤
Great video! I’ve had my eye on a Jackery solar for my small house with periodic power outages but haven’t decided which one to get, this is super informative- thank you!
I love my little jackery that I use for camping or emergency reasons. I got the solar panel# but I’ve not used them yet to recharge cuz I always seem to camp in the shade. But I’ve camped for three days in the heat and used my little one to recharge my phon3 and iPad and to run a fan if the temps got too warm for comfort. Thanks for reviewing their new mega sized battery.
I have been watching the show since day 1 and still find the material fresh and interesting. I'm happy to see the family; especially, how fast the baby is growing.
I am always glad to watch your videos, {I wasn't aware how tall your guy was! } Glad you have a dependable charging option. Thank you Black shivering bell and thumbs up.
Great way to aim the panels at the sun is to use a soup can. Place it on the panels standing up and move the panels until there is no shadow on the panel from the sun. That is all that it takes. Check your manual, some batteries don't like to be stored at 100%. 40 to 60% is best and then charge it when you feel that you may need it.
You didn't show us where the jackery plugged into your house. Is there a special connection, as well as whether the jackery is plugged into the solar? How long are the cables?
Just a regular cable that will plug into any wall outlet. No special connection. I did show the solar panel set up. The solar cables are about 10-15ft, but they do have extensions available.
How do you hook it up to your house? Everyone just shows the usage time. If you have panels, how do you connect this to the panels? Will your house panels recharge it. ECO FLOW does this. So is Jackery onbthe same level? Thanks
So we did show the rv plug that goes directly from the tiny house to the front of the Jackery. And we also showed how the panels connect to the back of the Jackery. The panels will recharge the Jackery in about 4 hrs with good sun exposure.
I’ve been looking for a power bank to power my cpap machine in home if we have a prolonged power outage. I was looking at the little one, not the big boy. Will that be enough to do the job for 8 hours?
you could put the panels on the roof of your front porch...seems like you have a decent amount of sun hitting that roof. You should be able to find some longer cords to connect to the unit with...
I had a portable generator, forget the name of it, probably because the thing wasn't worth a damn and did not power much at all for a very short time. The piece of junk also weighed about as much as a Abrams tank! Got rid of it, I will look into this Jackery, thank you very much.
I just want to point out that an EV can also be used quite comfortably to maintain power in a blackout situation and might be a great alternative for places where you regularly have a power source to keep one charged. Technology Connections here on YT has a video about using an EV to power essentials for easily over 24 hours on their Connextras channel.

I just upgraded from the 300 to 1000. I love their products. So easy, quiet and dependable.
Great video! I’ve had my eye on a Jackery solar for my small house with periodic power outages but haven’t decided which one to get, this is super informative- thank you!
So glad to be of help! And I’m also so glad they made this larger option that can actually power my whole house!
Awesome beautiful place
Thank you! We love it
@@TinyHouseGiantJourney WHAT ABOUT THE POWER BACK UP IN NEGATIVE TEMPERATURE. ..?
Thank you for sharing this info. I've been considering backup power, since I live in Texas and our power is iffy at times.
I live in Texas. This is cheaper than solar panels. 👍
Hi Jenna, I have the small Jackery.
IT charges everything !
JO JO IN VT 💞💨
Just be aware that Jackery 3000 uses LI NMC batteries not LIFEPO4 so about 1/5th the lifecycles and more risk of a thermal runaway fire or explosion.
Thank you for heads up.
Is there a generator similar to this 3,000 that uses LIFEPO 4?
That's great Jenna and it can charge by solar too?!?! This would be a great Mothers Day gift😊
I love my little jackery that I use for camping or emergency reasons. I got the solar panel# but I’ve not used them yet to recharge cuz I always seem to camp in the shade. But I’ve camped for three days in the heat and used my little one to recharge my phon3 and iPad and to run a fan if the temps got too warm for comfort.

Wonderful review of the Jackery, concise and practical information with everyday demonstrations of it in use
Thank you very informative I appreciate you guys God bless you all
I have been watching the show since day 1 and still find the material fresh and interesting. I'm happy to see the family; especially, how fast the baby is growing.
$3400 will buy a lot of gas! But it is nice to have backup.
True but that’s not what I was looking for. The benefits of green energy and silence are worth the extra $ to me. But to each their own!
Could not find the 3000 on the Jackery web site. Is it still available?
Could you use this for something like refrigeration and maybe a light or two in a regular house?
Definitely! It becomes available March 27
Jenna, I'm very grateful to have this recommendation ❤️ in perfect timing. LOLove frumheiron 🤩
I am always glad to watch your videos, {I wasn't aware how tall your guy was! } Glad you have a dependable charging option. Thank you Black shivering bell and thumbs up.

@@TinyHouseGiantJourney THANK YOU.. I've been watching your channel for years. I love it!
Nice product but with a price tag in France of over 2,800€ without any solar panels it’s expensive.
❤
Love your tiny house. ❤😊👍

Sun price is $2800 for the Jackery...
Sounds like a great product. However it's not available on their website yet. 😢
It becomes available 3/27
Beautiful home 😍😍😍😍.
I went to their site and Amazon and can’t find the price for the 3000 incl Solar panels
It becomes available 3/27
You can literally live with this solar generators if you know how much energy you consume especially in a tiny house. And try to consume less energy.
I need something like jackery! My power goes out all the time so I can’t run my cpap and oxygen 😢
I was thinking two 2000s for a small cabin would work with a wood stove and gas water heater, cheers🎉
1:47 looks like a pretty sizeable crack in the side of the unit where you were plugging in the solar cables
What is charging it? electricity? Is it not solar powered?
I’ve been looking for a power bank to power my cpap machine in home if we have a prolonged power outage. I was looking at the little one, not the big boy. Will that be enough to do the job for 8 hours?
It would depend on how much power you are using. There are online calculators that can help you determine what size battery bank you need.
😲 how tall is your husband?just curious 😆
6'6"!
I'm glad you asked! I was curious, too. What a lovely couple, and your baby is absolutely adorable!
4:14 So with 0 W output, it will only last 99.9 hours? Doesnt retain a charge very well.
It’ll last months and up to a year when not in use. That readout is just as high as it goes.
What kind of wood stove do you have please
you could put the panels on the roof of your front porch...seems like you have a decent amount of sun hitting that roof. You should be able to find some longer cords to connect to the unit with...
Yes I could. Good point
I had a portable generator, forget the name of it, probably because the thing wasn't worth a damn and did not power much at all for a very short time. The piece of junk also weighed about as much as a Abrams tank! Got rid of it, I will look into this Jackery, thank you very much.
Overlanding requirement
Are you love liveing Thai
Yes. I need bigger one
The generator looks cool.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What a cute doggo!!!
I have a dual fuel 10000 watt whole house generator and would love to add this option to the mix. Can't be too prepared!
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
wow, fantastic!
Думала дом покажут, а ни одни аккумуляторы
It's on my wishlist👍
💖
I live on Whidbey as well. The power outages can be difficult. This year has been bad for us with outages. We got a power station.
When will you have a video updating the tiny house you live in now? 💜💜💜
Beautiful tiny home and beautiful family ❤

I've got a 300 for now. Loved the video
$4k?!
Thanks for the info!
How big is the tiny house, and where did you buy the Jackery?
How is about 165 sq ft, or 20’ long. Jackery can be purchased via the links in the description.
Thanks! 😊
Hey what kind of stove is in the house as you are showing the jackery?
My cook stove is propane. The wood stove is the Kimberly by unforgettable fire
Great Video!
Very cool system!
I want one ! ☺
Will it catch fire and kill me?
not available.
Available now

Uuu, chick looks sooo different without studio make up :)
Studio makeup? Lol. Who has time for that? Or skills?
High winds? No brainer.
Wind Turbine.
They are cheap these days. Putting one on my ambulance rv.
Yes, I have solar and multiple power stations too.
