What's different about the JACKERY 1000 v2 POWER STATION?

you know it's taken me a while to find a power solution that I truly like and that I can trust for my Adventures but I think I found a power station that is versatile enough for both outdoor and indoor use and also can handle the demands that I put on it I mean when I'm Comfort camping or filming content I have a lot of devices that need power my phone my radio camera batteries drone batteries my laptop GPS fan Bluetooth radio Lantern my production lights cooking Kettle headlamp delist goes on and on it could be a lot and in the past I've used smaller power Banks or gas generators and they were either too small or too big for what I needed or they required more maintenance than I like so the jackary 1000 V2 power station with the solar Saga 200 W solar panels is what I'm currently using because it's awesome and here's why the power density on this little thing is awesome it has 1,500 watts of output power 3,000 WTS of peak power for 1,070 w hours it's small and lightweight and that's one of the primary things that attracted me to this thing it's got a nice folding handle the thing is small enough put it in the back of your car along with all your camping gear and you won't be hurting for space and the fact that you can recharge it with one or two solar panels makes it really great for off-grid use so if you have two panels going at once and say it's a little overcast you're still going to have quite a bit of power coming into your device so you can choose to use one or two solar panels depending on your needs the previous version of this its peak power was 800 WT this is500 WTS its peak power was 2,000 W this one is 3,000 W with the battery chemistry being lithium iron phosphate the power density is much higher so you get a lot more power from the same form factor so that's really important that they changed the battery chemistry and now this thing is stronger faster and smaller the output ports provide up to 100 WTS of PD output power what that means is that your device like phones and such can charge up to 70% faster than if you plug them into a standard charger so that just means getting power back into your devices is going to be way faster which when you're on an adventure time is very valuable also this is UL rated the UL listed seal means that the product has been tested by underwriter Laboratories to nationally recognize safety and sustainability standards additionally it has been found to be free from a reasonably foreseeable risk of fire and electrical shock and a really big part of that is the battery chemistry this is a lithium iron phosphate battery chemistry this is a huge benefit to me like in the past the battery chemistries have not been ideal for outdoor adventure use they've been too heavy or they've had a very high risk of fire when overheated or misused or punctured or rough handled this thing is great because it can handle a lot of shock it can handle higher weather extremes it is a lighter weight battery chemistry so the power density is much higher that was a very nerdy way of saying that this is better and it's safer to use in rugged environments this thing is going to last a very long time it's rated for 4,000 charge cycles so if you were using this every single day that would last like at least 10 years and I love because of its high power output that I can use this thing for cooking as well so I have an electric kettle and I can pop popcorn in it or I can make coffee or boil water make soup whatever and as a point of reference to pop this popcorn just now it only reduced the capacity of that unit by less than 1% so you could make a lot of meals before needing to recharge this unit and that's why for multi-day Comfort camping trips this is a must have for me when I go out cuz I know I can make a lot of meals I can recharge my devices and I'm going to be set there's actually a jackary phone app too that you can tether to it with Bluetooth and this is really beneficial because as it's charging you can tell remotely how full it is and how much time is remaining on the unit also you can monitor the load status of it while it's charging other devices as well I also like that when it's plugged into AC power at home and it's recharging from that that it's very quiet because it has a silent charging mode which is really great in the past I've used other units that are very loud when they charge huge fans it sounds like a jet engine is taken off this thing's really quiet which I really appreciate because I also use it as a UPS an uninterruptible power supply when I plug it into my editing computer at home when I'm editing I don't want to lose any any progress that I've been making on a project so a power outage can be very detrimental what I do is I plug my editing machine directly into this and then this into the wall and what that does is that if there's ever a power outage it switches over almost instantly to the battery backup and that is so critical if there's uh bad weather in the area or somebody hits a telephone pole and knocks it over I know I'm not going to lose what I'm working on and because it's so quiet it doesn't have these crazy loud fans when it's charging I can actually tolerate it being right next to me on the ground and I actually use the light on the front quite a bit too it's really handy you don't think you're G to use it but you use it quite a lot so we were actually doing some construction recently on our home and we didn't have power running to our garage and I actually used a jackary unit to power the garage door opener for a while which was a very cool use case for this thing I also used it to recharge some of my cordless power tools as well pretty much every day you're finding a new and useful use for it if you want to learn more you can Google jackary 1000 V2 solar generator and you can look up the solar Saga 200 W solar panels as well that plug into this check out the link to this unit in the description of this video I hope you found that useful or at least entertaining we'll see you later
