For campers, a small solar generator is an excellent option as it offers a portable and eco-friendly power supply that can charge devices, light up the campsite, and run small appliances. It operates quietly, efficiently, and is user-friendly, ensuring modern amenities can be enjoyed outdoors.

To ensure continuous power supply during outages or emergencies, a small solar generator is crucial for home backup. Its clean and renewable energy source keeps essential appliances and devices functioning, providing a reliable power solution

For hobbies like fishing, tailgating, and barbequeing, you won't be using any heavy duty appliances. A mini solar generator will be more than enough to power your outdoor activities.

Even professions where electricity may not be readily available, like drone surveillance and construction, can reap the benefits of small solar generators. They're a clean and sustainable solution for remote job sites, ensuring workers that they can work efficiently and effectively.

Over time, a small solar generator can save you money on electricity bills and fuel costs, especially if you use it regularly for outdoor activities or as a backup power source.

The Jackery Explorer 240, an entry-level portable power station equipped with a 240Wh lithium-ion battery pack, weighs a mere 6.6 pounds, and comes with a solid handle for carrying to outdoor adventures.

Pocket-lint

And when you're using it, you won't even know it's there - it operates at a super quiet 30 decibels in silent mode - that’s like being in a quiet library! (Solar Generator 3000 Pro)

TechRepublic

The giant-lunchbox format of the device makes it easy to store and carry from room to room. This is helpful in an extended power outage where you could place the device in a home office or kitchen during the day, and relocate it to a bedroom in the evening. (Explorer 1500 Pro)

KOA

Thankfully, technology has changed that. Modern-day portable power stations are now super light and easy to transport, which is why they are perfect for camping. ( Solar Generator 1500 Pro)

Voice from Our Customers

Sleep well!!

We were struggling to find the solution for dry camping and how to power my CPAP for multiple nights. Difficult to get any info or answers from CPAP suppliers or manufacturers. First, turn off your humidifier and your heated hose as it drops the electric usage in half! With the Jackery 500 I was able to get at least three nights of usage before recharging.

Scandihoovian

Absolutely life changing

I have waited 8 months to write this review. Last year, I took two Jackery 240's and two 60-watt foldable Jackery panels to friends in Haiti. It was the most simple and efficient way I could think of to bring electricity and provide for the very basic need of charging cell phones and laptops, night time lighting, and powering a small fan on hot nights.

David Garman

Lightweight and pretty small

This is very lightweight and pretty small, so it's easy to take camping. The solar panel worked well. I used it to charge my cell phone and watch, and while I felt it shouldn't have drained the unit as quickly as it did, the solar power charged it right back up.

Mdogs

Noiseless type

Really enjoying the noiseless type of Solar Generator as I am used to the gasoline models. This Jackery Explorer 1500 Pro worked great on our camping trip. We powered a few lights and a small ceramic heater, and it worked perfectly. We did not stay long enough to need a recharge on that trip, so I look forward to attaching the solar panels I bought and seeing how this goes.
