    I have that Jackery 1,000. It stays on in my truck topper camper and keeps my Bouge RV refrigerator. It does a great job. We have to remember, it was the technology that was available at the time. I’ll continue to use it until it won’t do the job. So far, I can’t kill it. BUT, I am very glad they updated their technology. Whenever I needed a new unit, I will go another Jackery. I have been very happy with them.

    I was able to just pick up the V2 Jackery Explorer 1000 and the Bluetti AC 180 for $499 on Amazon. Both have the LIFO batteries. The Jackery is 24 pounds and the Bluetti is 34 pounds but has 80W more capacity and 1800 max Watts. I think I will keep the Bluetti.

    Thanks for the review. I've had the Jackery 1500 since April, 2021 and used it daily. I've reduced my use after buying Bluetti and a Firman duel fuel generator. I do agree that Jackery makes a fine product. Even with sweaty hands, the plastic housing does not slip. This unit fits well with their niche market for recreation. However, I have switched to home backup units with the more frequent natural disasters.

Was this the AC inverter on or DC (I think you were doing a DC thing at the time, wasn't fully clear to me). If AC, was that a typo, like maybe 14W/h, etc.? Or was that 4% screen reduction per hr (i.e., say 92% to 88% in one hr?

    I just picked one of these up for $460. This is a great review, but one thing I didn’t see was the voltage range of the solar input. I get that it will work with Jackery panels, but I didn’t really understand the spec sheet on working solar voltage if I wanted to use 3rd party panels.

      Not sure if this helps, at 5:17 it shows each of the two solar input DC 8020 ports capable of 200 watts each and with a 12v-60v range.
      I do wish they would've used a more common connection than the 8020 barrel, like the xt60 or Anderson power pole...or AT LEAST included a solar cable.
      Hope that helped.

    The ORIGINAL Jackery Explorer 1000 is a dependable workhorse, selling at 40% off these days. BUY ONE!
    Original Model Advantages:
    1) All in/out plugs are in the front. Where space is tight - this is important as the unit can be placed against a wall. 2) Uses a (stable) Anderson Plug for DC charging. Those other DC charging outlets are a nightmare. 3) There is NO WATTAGE LOSS when stored for long periods. Yup! Stays at 100%! 4) AC outlets draw VERY little power when on but inactive - like 2w … and one can see that invisible power draw on the screen. 5) The AC surge wattage is very high. (But only for a few seconds.)
    … Disadvanges:
    1) More sensitive to cold. (But can easily be taken indoors for a warmup and recharge in winter.) 2) Solar input maxes out well below 200W but fine for small systems. 3) The handle design is annoying.
    If you get the upgraded Jackery - get at least a 1500 as the operational wattage draw is notable. (And never talked about.)

That is the jackery 1000 version, 2 for 349. Or the ecoflow Delta 2 at 1800W for $399. I'm wanting to be able to take a spare battery and add power to the solar generator. Can you tell me which one of these is the better one of the two?

  • @marklewus5468
    @marklewus5468 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great video, but I think the methodology used to measure DC capacity is flawed. At the beginning of the test, note that the power station showed 133w while you were drawing 10 A, which implies that the voltage at the plug was regulated at 13.3 V. The voltage at your tester was 11.9 V, a 1.4V drop. This is due to IR loss in the plug & cable, which probably uses 16 or 18 gauge CCA (copper plated aluminum) wire. If instead we look at the measured amp hours at the tester (75.3) and multiply by the actual output voltage of 13.3 we get 1003 wh for an efficiency of 93%. I see this problem with most reviewers using cheap tin plated plugs and skinny aluminum cable. I suggest you get a high quality plug with 12 or 14 gauge pure copper wire and cut the wire is short as possible. This would provide a much more accurate DC result. For this unit, I suspect it would be around 90%.

    • @ReeWrayOutdoors
      @ReeWrayOutdoors  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I don't disagree. But I continue to use the same test setup because, at least for now, I'm more interested in relative performance between power stations than the absolute performance. What you're recommending would definitely more representative of actual efficiency and I may eventually try and go that route. Either way, I certainly appreciate your well-considered input. :)

    Great review. I've always loved Jackery. I have 2 of the 500's when they first came out. This Jackery does give the Delta 2 a run for its money. Great size and power to run tools around the yard. I don't consider not having an expansion battery a deal breaker. I don't like expansion batteries because they are just bricks if the main unit is down. Instead being able to connect a 12V battery to expand the capacity is easier and less expensive. What I do consider a con on the Jackery 1000V2 are the charging ports. and the solar panels. Jackery would make more money if they were not making them so proprietary with the cables used. One question, is this unit able to run a diesel heater like my Jackery 500? Great job.

    Since AC is more efficient than the DC, is it more efficient to run my 12v fridge off the AC?

    • @ReeWrayOutdoors
      @ReeWrayOutdoors  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Not typically. If you ran such a low power application of the AC inverter, the constant draw of the inverter over a longer period of time will easily give you LESS usable watt-hours. The power draw on the DC capacity tests is pretty low due to the limitations of these DC testers...so the test can easily run many hours. Whereas the AC test is often fairly short so the negative impact of the inverter conversion loss and no load draw is less apparent in those results.

Do you know of any issues of storage units with the older tech having issues like fires, running very hot etc. In my research I can only find things like electric bikes, cars that may be subject to water more than other areas and abuse of users that the older tech has been a concern. If you could provide me with some examples of power stations having these issues I would be grateful.

      I hesitate to refer to NMC as older tech since it is still very widely used today...even more than LFP. That said, NMC isn't any more likely to fail than LFP...it's just that if it does fail...it can be quite dramatic (not in a good way). Still, the likelihood of that remains extremely low due to the safety mechanisms built-in to these things.

Of 100s of reviews and videos, I've never seen anyone compare them to a Titan, from Point Zero Energy. I've seen 2 that compared that didn't actually own one, they just showed some specs. I can tell you from experience, I own 2, and 10kw in battery. They are the only portable, modular, low frequency units on the market. No they will not send you one for a free review, no there not cheap! But if you really want a powerfull unit, real power, and dependability, that can utilize any battery chemistry, lead acid, gel,and lithium, and thats just on the external port, has 2 mppt controllers capable 2400w solar input, and has no limit on battery expansion.

      @ReeWrayOutdoors  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's a tough one. I think they're both extremely closely matched. For me, it might come down to the form factor with the EFDP2 splitting DC ports on one side and AC on the other...might be good in some cases, but also awkward in others. Whereas the E1000V2 has everything (except charging inputs) up front. Functionally though, maybe a slight edge to the Delta 2 for AC output and capacity expansion, if those are features you would take advantage of.

    I have two 100w Togo Power solar panels and when I plug them into the Jackery 1000 V2, it shows no input charge. Could this be because individually, they are not enough voltage for each of the two solar input ports on the side? Does the input voltage matter for each of those solar input ports? Each of those solar panels is 18V. I'm also wondering if it's not the voltage being an issue that it's not charging with those little solar panels, maybe it's the plug? It fits in there just fine, and they charge up my little Jackery explorer 300 without an issue.

    Terrific review of this model. I live in a subdivision where all of our services are underground. Our power rarely goes out, and when it does it is usually restored quickly. However, I still would like to have a backup plan and have installed a 4 circuit power transfer switch at my main electrical panel that would power our 22 cu ft refrigerator, living room 65" TV, a Den where our modem and router is located and lights in one bathroom. The power draw for the refrigerator is less than 200 watts running and the TV is also a small draw of about 150 watts. The modem and router are negligible and the lights in our bathroom are LED. I have looked at the Explorer 1000 v2 and the Explorer 2000 v2. After watching your video, I believe the 1000 v2 would fit my needs. If we do have a power outage, normally the power is restored within the hour. We are retired, don't do any camping, but I do fly a drone and see that this power unit could really be useful when I'm flying my drone to charge the batteries. I wanted to get your thoughts on whether you think the 1000 v2 would be sufficient for my situation. Again, I really enjoyed your video on this product.

I do also think they've gotten a lot more competitive in the past year with their new 'Pro' Line-up and have also (with a possible exception in the solar panel line) moderated prices to be more in-line with the market. I remain very encouraged with the direction they're going, especially with introduction of this Explorer 1000 v2.

    • @ReeWrayOutdoors
      @ReeWrayOutdoors  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Jasonoid I'll agree that it would have been preferrable to go with Anderson or XT60 over DC8020 on the solar inputs - but adapting from that to just about anything else is trivially easy...and I'd agree that a couple of additional USB ports would have been nice. That said, I don't think Jackery's other design choices on this unit are unreasonable, given the capacity class it sits in. Not everyone needs battery expansion, and if you do, they do have those options in the Plus line-up. And with a fixed 1070Wh capacity, most people are never going to need to put more than 400W of solar on it...ditto for the high-power DC output - not really something MOST users of a 1070Wh unit are clambering for, I suspect. Far more appropriate for units in the 2000Wh+ class. So, while I take your points, I don't agree that it's poorly positioned or researched. I actually think Jackery made an informed decision about what the key features most people in this capacity class are asking for and they built it...a couple of years late, maybe...but I think it fits a specific niche that is not trying to be all things to all people. But for some...perhaps many, I do think it's a solid fit, so we'll have to agree to disagree. :P
