Customers have given Jackery products high ratings. One buyer praised the Explorer 1000 v2: "This item is robust and space-efficient, fitting seamlessly in my workspace. When the power goes out, it becomes a real game changer. I can continue my tasks as if everything is normal, which is quite impressive. The most advantageous aspect for me [is] the USB-C ports. I can connect my Mac directly to it without needing an adapter."
Another said: "Superb piece of kit. Purchased to run our camping fridge and charge mobile phones. It ran the fridge all weekend at 4°C and only dropped to 75%. Very happy with it and can't wait to take it on longer trips." One reviewer reported an error code issue, but noted customer service had been "great" so far. Another added: "Great item. Allows me to put my solar panels in different places whilst keeping the battery pack inside."
