  • QuestionCan I use an induction cook plate 1800 Watts with this unit? If not what should I buy.

    Asked by Lucky24.

    • Answer Dear customer, thank you for your interest in Jackery products. The Jackery E290 has a battery capacity of 290Wh and provides an output power of 200W continuous and 400W peak. Unfortunately, this output is not sufficient to power an 1800-watt induction cook plate, which would require a higher capacity power station. For your specific needs, we recommend considering one of our higher-capacity power stations such as the Explorer 1000 Plus, Explorer 2000 Pro, Explorer 2000 Plus, or Explorer 3000 Pro, which are designed to deliver the necessary power and may be suitable for your needs. These models offer a combination of high capacity and output power that can support a wider range of high-wattage devices, making them ideal for various home and outdoor applications. If you need further assistance in selecting the right power station or have any other questions, please feel free to reach out (Customer Service: [email protected] / +1-888-502-2236 Weekdays 9AM to 5PM PST). We are here to help you find the perfect solution for your power needs. Best regards, Jackery Support Team

  • QuestionCan you run an iron or blender, coffee maker?

    Asked by Tere.

    • Answer Dear Customer, the average wattages for the appliances you mentioned are as follows: Iron: 1000 to 2400 watts; Blender: 300 to 1500 watts; Coffee Maker: 700 to 1500 watts. Considering that the Jackery Explorer 290 is equipped with a running wattage of 200 watts, it may not be sufficient to power these appliances simultaneously, particularly if they are on the higher end of the wattage spectrum. We recommend evaluating the specific wattage requirements of your devices and considering a power station with a higher wattage output if you plan to use multiple high-wattage appliances at once. Should you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us (Customer Service: [email protected] / +1-888-502-2236). We appreciate your interest in our product and look forward to serving you. Warm regards, Jackery Support Team

  • QuestionHow long will this run a laptop?

    Asked by JonT.

    • Answer Dear Customer, thank you for your inquiry. The Jackery Explorer 290, equipped with a 290Wh Backup Lithium Battery, is designed to provide reliable power for various devices, including laptops. The duration that the Explorer 290 can run a laptop depends on several factors, such as the laptop's power consumption, its battery capacity, and the tasks being performed. On average, a typical laptop consumes between 30 to 70 watts of power during regular use. Assuming an average laptop power consumption of 50 watts, the Explorer 290 would theoretically provide approximately 5 hours. However, this is a simplified calculation and actual runtime may vary. Factors such as screen brightness, the number of applications running, and the laptop's energy efficiency can influence the battery life. It's also important to note that the Explorer 290's AC outlet provides 200W of continuous power, which should be more than sufficient for most laptops. If you have specific details about your laptop's power requirements, we can provide a more accurate estimate. Should you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to contact us (Customer Service: [email protected] / +1-888-502-2236). We're here to help and look forward to assisting you with your power needs. Warm regards, Jackery Support Team

  • Questionwill this power a 40 inch TV and for how long after its fully charged

    Asked by Dee.

    • Answer It can but for the exact time frame, you will need to look at the power consumption for you TV. For example, I have a 60inch TV and it says that it runs at 70w of power. The Jackery 240v2 holds 256Whrs of power. That means it can power a 70W TV for approximately 3hrs and change. Just devise the Power/(by tv wattage) and that will give you the time that it will last in hours.
