Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is not going to keep you warm in a storm or keep your refrigerator on for any length of time. However, its great for short amounts of time, and recharging phones. A tiny 120v heater ran for 2 hours or so with this generator fully charged.

This is my second Jackery, cuz I love it so much! Our power goes out frequently, and it is perfect for when you want to power a few things without turning on the generator. Also good for when you are away from the house and need power.

This little powerhouse kept my multicolored camp tent lights going all night long, and still had juice for my phone charging, and air up air mattresses with pump. Amazing little tool. I actually plugged in 2 box fans and was only at 150watts (75watts x's 2 fans). I almost bought a second one. Will look into a solar panel as a next purchase.

We just took it on our trip to Disneyland since my dad just finished cancer treatments and needed to take a mobility scooter. It fit nicely in the little locked storage box on the back and came in so handy - we charged our cell phones on it and then at lunch he charged up the scooter. It gave it a nice charge to finish the day. Very convenient.

I do a lot of outdoor markets and need to set up my tent with lights. This will keep them powered the whole day, plus I am able to charge my phones. I would definitely recommend!

AWESOME generator! I was a lil disappointed because I thought it came with the solar panel! But overall it's a life saver

Its a great product i live in my car so its vary handy is buy a 2nd one if i has thw money

I use it every weekend when I hunt and it’ll never drop below 60%. Great battery back and would recommend

Great portable battery. Got a 100w solar panel too and it is fun to optimize my daily electricity use. The battery feels sturdy and is easy to use.

Works. Weight: light enough for this arthritic old lady to carry, Only negative so far: like so many products, for some reason they make the on/off/control buttons the same color as the background (black on black) making it hard to see where those buttons are, improve by making it easier to see these buttons.

great product works and functions great really helps when the power goes down

If you're looking for a reliable, high-performance portable charger, the Jackery is a game-changer. I’ve used it during power outages, and it’s never let me down. Thumbs up!

We have taken this camping a couple of times and we can run a box fan on it for the majority of the night, which is the main intention.

This items works great. If you don't have electric at the time love it

Exactly what I needed -- just in case I lose power, I can still keep a few things on such as light, cell phone and laptop.

GREAT UNIT - highly recommend. Small but powerful

Really impressed with this relatively small battery pack. I bought it to power a dometic cooler while camping. Tested the setup by keeping the cooler and the battery in the back of a Jeep throughout the day. It would get through about a day to a day and a half on a hot day. Would highly recommend.

Purchased this Explorer 290 Portable Generator at a great price as we enter the season of winter storms. The small size was one reason for selecting this model, as we have minimal storage space. The unit came partially charged, and took very little time to fully charge plugged into an outlet. The percent charged is clearly shown. We charged a smartphone, with 97% remaining on the generator after. Have not yet tested charging our laptops, but given the remaining power after the cell, would expect the claims are accurate. This will not power a refrigerator in the event of power loss, but we will use it for a lamp and personal electronics in event of loss of power. Unit has an AC outlet, 12V car-style DC socket, and 2 USB Type-A ports. A solar panel kit can be separately purchased. Would have liked a USB-C port but an adapter easily addresses this.

Use it every day. Works good out side running dports practice clocks.

The generator works as promised. I have had it for about 2 weeks. The instructions says to either charge every 6 months or leave plugged in. I have chose to leave it plugged in. I like that the different inputs have their own on/off switch. I purchased the solar panel with it (together a daily deal). It’s nice to be prepared for power outages, and to be able to take it with me when I go, not worrying about needing electricity.
