    This thing is awesome. For its small size, it packs a punch. Lots of different ports. I like the screen so I can see how much juice is left and how much power is being drawn.

    We used the Jackery during a camping trip. It was able to air up the air mattress and charge our phones over the weekend. We chargered it up when we got home so we are ready for any power outages or tailgating.

    Great power station! Does everything I need it to and bit more. Only thing I would say is it needs one more outlet, but you can use a surge strip for more plugs.

    Only for small electronics with low wattage needs

    The Jackery - Explorer 290 Portable Power Solar Power Generator – Black can supply electricity to my electronics, but I found out through testing different types of electronics that only low wattage electronics will power on. My forty-inch Toshiba nor my thirty-five inch Vizio would power on, but the Vizio standby light did illuminate. I could not power on my small electric heater neither. I tested smaller electronics that did not require a lot of wattage to power on such as CFL light bulbs and a boom box. Every lamp I plugged into the Jackery - Explorer 290 Portable Power Solar Power Generator – Black lit up and the boom box played its radio and tape deck. The Jackery - Explorer 290 Portable Power Solar Power Generator – Black is perfect for an emergency situation whereby a Blackout occurs and lights and hearing information on the radio is vital. Also, camping is another arena where the Jackery can be beneficial for supplying power to small low wattage electronics.
