Q: QuestionCan you charge a 12v marine battery and for how long? I am thinking of purchasing to recharge a deep cycle battery used for a trolling motor.
Asked by Brian.
- A:Answer Dear customer, thank you for your inquiry about the Jackery products. The Jackery Explorer 290 has a capacity of 290Wh and a power output of 200W. Typically, a marine deep cycle battery requires a significant amount of energy to fully charge, and based on the specifications of the Explorer 290, it may NOT be able to deliver the necessary power to fully charge such a battery. For your power needs, we recommend considering a higher-capacity power station.

Q: QuestionHow do i figure out how long something will run off of this? For instance something that is 100 watts how long can i run it continuously?
Asked by Paul1984.
- A:Answer Dear customer, thank you for your interest in Jackery products. The Explorer 290 has a battery capacity of 290Wh and an output power of 200W. To estimate the runtime, we use a straightforward calculation: multiply the battery capacity by 0.85 and then divide by the device's power consumption.

Q: QuestionIf I don't have a solar panel, how do I charge this? And will it work for a sump pump when we lose power? Thanks!
Asked by Robert.
- A:Answer Dear customer, thank you for your interest in Jackery products. For your first question on charging options, if you do not have a solar panel, the Explorer 290 can be conveniently charged using a wall outlet or a car charger. The product comes with the necessary cables for both charging methods, ensuring that you can power up your device with ease.

Q: QuestionCan u run a refrigerator off this if you lose power
Asked by mike.
- A:Answer Dear customer, thank you for your interest in Jackery products. The Jackery Explorer 290, while a versatile power solution, has a battery capacity of 290Wh and an output power of 200W.

Q: QuestionAfter a full charge how long will the battery last in hours?
Asked by Justin.
- A:Answer Dear customer, thank you for your interest in Jackery products. The Explorer 290 is equipped with a 290Wh battery capacity and has an output power of 200W. It's important to note that power stations naturally experience self-discharge when not in use, which means the stored energy will gradually decrease over time. When powering devices, the actual runtime will vary depending on the power consumption of the devices being used. It is essential to ensure that the cumulative power draw from all connected devices does not exceed the Explorer 290's 200W output capacity to avoid overloading the system. To provide a more precise estimate of runtime, we would need to know the specific power requirements of the devices you plan to use. However, as a general guideline, the runtime can be calculated by multiplying the battery capacity by 0.85 and then dividing by the total power consumption of the devices in use. For example, if your devices consume a total of 100W, the battery could theoretically last approximately 2.46 hours (290Wh * 0.85 ÷ 100W). Please remember that this is a simplified calculation and actual battery life may vary due to factors such as device efficiency, battery age, and environmental conditions.

Asked by Ellie.
- A:Answer Dear Customer, thank you for your interest in Jackery products. The Explorer 290 features a 290Wh battery capacity with a 200W output power.
