Getting An Upgrade To My Solar Setup | Jackery Explorer 1000 Power Station and Solar Panels

[@Sanya3421]

*Great **Generater.Systems** so far. We have the same brand just a little less power. This one is so much quieter then our first one. Great buy*

[@rachelcarlsonnotesfromthenomad]

HOORAY!! You are the best conduit (see how I did that😌) to be a sponsor for Jackery because you don’t live in a fancy AF van or RV where power might be a bit more easier to attain. You did an AMAZING and THOROUGH job on explaining how it works and how easy it can be for those just getting started. I’ve seen many Jackery reviews but none as good and precise as yours. Jackery did good in choosing YOU. And what a way to begin a new year. HUGE CONGRATS Chantelle!!

[@vagabondvon221]

Such an amazing gift ! Just goes to show that your hard work is paying off and your getting the recognition you very much deserve : ) Very proud of you .... Rock on !

[@TravelingGranny]

I am so excited that Jackery reached out to you!! Congratulations to you and Joey! 👍🤗🙏🐾🐾

[@MyBasicJourney]

Thank you! I love your channel name.❤😊

[@heartdawg]

Congrats!! You and your channel definitely have earned a Jackery sponsorship!! Happy for you......you go girl♡

[@LiveADarlingLife]

What a great package from Jackery! Well done, you! You deserve the joy!

[@MyBasicJourney]

❤❤❤

[@peskypartner3140]

I’m so proud of you! I’m 58 and still too scared to do this life but I would love to try, when I get brave enough. Good for you! Enjoy your life!

[@elizabethapfelbaum1240]

You do deserve the best! Congratulations girl! Woo hoo

[@gjonesii]

Your gratitude is refreshing. Good on Jackery for hooking you up.

[@barobinson1689]

I love Joey and how you put down your laptop and gave him cuddles when he so plainly was asking. Awwwww!

[@WiltonGal]

This is the BEST explanation of the Jackery that I've seen; thank you! I can see how even people in "sticks & bricks" could use this in areas where frequent power outtages happen.

[@lisaglover8848]

This was the best video on the solar Hackett I have seen. Always felt intimidated by all of it. You made it finally make sense so easy. Thank you. Safe travels 🚗

[@Nannygoat]

Awe this is great news! I am so happy for you! Everybody needs to take a look at this great product traveling in a van.

[@elineblind348]

Nice. This is the first product review on KZbin that didn't make me feel used afterwards. Instead I left feeling so happy for you. Congrats enjoy the fruits of your journey.

[@MyBasicJourney]

Thank you!

[@treenotion9466]

Yes! The solar thing is overwhelming for ladies like me. I secretly think I'm going to blow myself up because I hooked the wrong thingy to the power whatever. I just use the little hand size chargers. Thanks so much!

[@glenyssymons2974]

Amen!

[@jonthebru]

These devices, especially the Jackery products and the other relatively high end lines are really easy and intuitive to use. The two things related to buying one is your budget and what your needs are. You may not need the biggest one though it does have a higher capacity. Charge time is a big deal, essentially anytime the sun is shining, you are driving down the road or at a place with a regular power plug, put it on charge until it is charged, it takes some time. In the video Chantelle scans across the part of the box that shows the charge times for each method.

[@marylinsadventures1677]

They picked the perfect person to give the jackery. So happy and great review. I just got my jackery 300 and man is that little thing a monster and the 100 solar panel is perfection. Very easy to use. I used it during my Christmas camping trip. Thank you for sharing

[@MyBasicJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@howardl0vr]

Now that company you love contacted YOU, don’t be afraid to reach out to other companies! Always love your videos 💕 🌞

[@cherylnellis9872]

Awesome I love my jackery too would love to own that one tho ! I've been watching u for awhile now my dream has always been to vanlife but life always got in my way well its coming now ! I've purchased a 07 town n country and have been very busy on Amazon! I've bought just about everything I think I'm gonna need so as soon as this very last door I have open closes ........ yup ripping out the seats , doing a build up , strapping down the kayak and hitting the road my first trip is rt 66 ! Thank you for inspiring me to move forward with my dream that has been quietly waiting for a very long time ill be 60 years old this June its time !!!!!!

[@MyBasicJourney]

Aww, that's so awesome. Congrats!❤❤❤

[@elizabethapfelbaum1240]

ThT is sooo cool! Your doing Rt 66! You go, hope to meet you out there.

[@karenprieto9644]

Wow! Finally I get it. Can' t tell you how long I've been waiting for someone to explain this so clearly!!! Thnx sooo much💝

[@theresahassan2576]

Hi Chantelle from Pennsylvania! I am a 67 yr old widow in my 1st week of trying to kick a 50 yr smoking habit! I enjoy your videos--the beautiful scenery and tours around the different campsites and your calm positive attitude is refreshing. Happy Jackery reached out to you and well deserved!

[@aprilbaxter2578]

You are the best saleswoman! I can now "search" less. I have been searching out information on solar systems for almost a year. I did find out how expensive the next step in my life is going to be. I'm in my 70's, and realistically I'm have only 10 to 15 years left to leave my job and enjoy what I've always dreamed of. I watch a group of older women on KZbin who really inspire me. Shout outs to Letty, Vanessa, and Dee! Truly, this is the best Jackery review I've watched, and I've watched a lot of them. I do think though, that the cost of the various sizes should be included.

[@kathybest6950]

Joey is just so adorable, I love that little puppy 🙂

[@vettechmom6056]

I'm not a van lifer, I don't go camping, and I have no need for a portable power station .... HOWEVER your great review makes me want to buy one!!! hahaha. Thinking of getting one for my daughter and boyfriend who like to go camping. Congratulations ... what a great gift from Jackery !!!!!!

[@ratchowmein]

The Jackery does look like a quick way to install solar and get on the road as easily as possible. Thanks for the extra push. 👍

[@chasethecat3839]

I give you 5000 thumbs up for understanding this electrical "stuff". It's one of my biggest fears of going on the road either in an rv or skoolie. TY for a great video. Even watched 12 minutes of a very informative ad from a prepper and learned how to make wild lettuce pain killer.

[@mjmj2860]

This is a great video to explain how the Jackery works. Plus you and Joey look so happy in the sun.😊

[@SunflowerandtheBussLady]

Congratulations! 🎊🎉 I bought myself the 240 with solar panel for Christmas, with tips I’ve saved from my gig jobs. I am building out my tiny camper at the storage place I keep her until she’s road ready. Since they have no power available, I was having to do cuts at home, then lug everything to the site. The Jackery has been a game changer!!! I take the tools I need for the day, and work without having to stop.some of the big rigs guys have come over to ask what I was doing and how I was powering tools, like saw, hand sander, and jig saw. Showed them and they were blown away that such a tiny little thing could do all that I needed done! Swear you guys, I tried hard not to feel just a tad smug and quite pleased with my 60 year old self! LOL.

[@anaben5311]

I love the gratitude that you show!

[@jeanne4771]

Great system and so simple

[@free2bfree583]

Jackery sponsoring 'My basic journey' is wonderful! Video helped me understand, and decide to purchase, Jackery 1000 and two solar panels for portable power. Thank you Chantelle...

[@wesallen4228]

Glad Jackery reached out to you.

[@broadwaygenius]

All the positivity you put out into the world is coming back to you. I’m so happy for you!

[@brianaustin1328]

very helpful, thanks. I find it easier to understand the product when NOT described by a solar expert!

[@FlipsyFiona]

This is amazing! I love your channel! And im so glad Jackery reached out to you for this! Thats a huge upgrade and it saves you a ton of money.

[@AnMarie711]

Good for you that a company contacted you to offer an upgrade, so wonderful.

[@bessieoriotis5104]

I love that you explained the Jackery and Solar power in such a simple way that I finally understood. Thanks.

[@patriciabridge4312]

Jackery has been so generous to many full time van dwellers. What a great marketing strategy! I have the 500 and love it. If I need to leave my dogs in my vehicle for a short period of time, like running into a bathroom at a rest stop, I open my sunroof and plug a fan into my jackery. I even used it an an Airbnb for my cpap because there was no outlet near my bed. When I start traveling again, I'll invest in their solar panel too. I'm happy for you that Jackery blessed you with this gift. Safe travels.

[@MyBasicJourney]

Nice!

[@thinknicethoughts88]

So wonderful to see such a thankful heart

[@martasplace6414]

That is WONDERFUL that Jackery let you have a nice big battery for doing a commercial for them. That's totally sweet!! That is going to make so many things easier for you!! Stay safe Chantel and vanlife rocks!! 👍🤩😎💗💞Give Joey a big hug for me. 🤗 🐕💗

[@MyBasicJourney]

Thank you!

[@shawneeb3771]

We have to say, you did the best review we have ever seen for Jackery. I am sure Jackery will be pleased with it. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheRock-xj7hs]

You’re becoming a rising star! Very well deserved.

[@MyBasicJourney]

Thanks!

[@ericnorthman4846]

What a great gift !! With the 200 Solar panels YES ! So glad they gave that to you !!! You're set now !!!

[@laurajphillips]

That is wonderful and you did one of the best reviews I’ve seen!

[@sowhydontyou5061]

Doing the happy dance! Congrats- your doing an amazing job!

[@frankg8178]

Great you look like a kid opening a Christmas present Big cactus in background Perfect Christmas tree Come on people perfect chance to show your kindness there’s no reason for thumbs down

[@MyBasicJourney]

I don't mind the thumbs downs. It helps the algorithm if people engage! Positive or negative. 😉❤ Thank you, though!!🥰🥰🥰

[@tanyasernas1291]

Amen What a blessing. I'm so with you. Wow what a blessing. Love your hat and the pants👍Gove Joey a hug for me. Be safe keep warm. Have a blessed day. Yeeeeesssssss!!!! We serve a mighty God what a blessing🎁🎁🎁

[@drivinfool9902]

Wow! So glad they helped you out. You did a great review and it will be a life changer. Hopefully I will be a van life soon. Had already decided I was going to start with a Jackery and foldable solar. So much easier and less confusing. Thanks so much. You did great showing all the options. Especially the USB charger directly on the panels. Didn't know that one and so convenient. They really thought about all our needs a provided for them so efficiently. Thanks Jackery. Praise be to God that sun creates electricity!

[@DonnaBMacK]

So well done. Great review. You speak so clearly. Take care!

[@rrhopewell]

That’s awesome. Jackery is winning all the charging battles.

[@sandracarpenter144]

I agree, solar is confusing. Jackery has made it so simple! Definitely #1 on my list of items to get before hitting the road.

[@Metoo1111]

What an amazing gift. They treated me very well when I purchased my 1000. Don’t forget to mention you can actually use the Jackery 1000 while it’s being charged too.

[@KellysCreativeDreams]

Hey Chantelle! I was showing your original jackets and solar to my hubby. I told him that’s what I want when I travel back east. Now I know jacket is the one to go with- hands down! Congrats on the gift. You did them proud! Safe Travels!

[@paula...sister1of12]

I agree with sone of the others. Best Jackery commercial I have seen😊Happy for you!

[@robertahardy4215]

They picked the right person to do a review! This was so well done. I have the Jackery 1000 on my Amazon wish list. Thank you for the great video!

[@xeniasierra3524]

I love my Jackery 1000. You will be so happy to have it. I run my 12 volt fridge for a good 2 days straight without having to charge the jackery. That was just a test to see how long it would run the fridge without charging.

[@kathyweber6844]

That was SOOO cute when Joey wanted u to pick him up when u were sitting in the chair!!🐕 jackery rocks!!✌

[@rvvanlife]

The J 240 can be put in a shoulder bag and carried into a library and charged there for those nomads that live in urban settings and fall behind on the charging

[@yellowrosecottag]

Congratulations! Jackery obviously recognised that your channel is growing and growing! What a nice present!

[@juneholbrook9452]

You are a good reviewer. I am glad you have more power, you deserve it. Your channel is fun to watch.

[@anitasimmons3599]

Thank you for another great video. I'm so glad Jackery sent you their bigger unit and solar panels. Your review helped me decide to give the Jackery system a try over a competitor. My husband and I could easily build a robust and less expensive system, but convenience and compactness is a defenent plus with two of us doing trips in a minivan. Safe travels.

[@sherivanhorsentikihutrv7377]

that is awesome! I love my Jackery 240. Great for boon docking but also I have been home teleworking since the pandemic and during a power outage kept my internet up, charged laptop and phone and in the evening ran my small electric heater. I have been telling all my friends experiencing the power outages - get a Jackery!

[@cocacolafiesta]

You were awesomely blessed! Your gratitude was so touching! I have a Jackery 500 and talked myself out of getting a 1000 but I think i’m changing my mind about that, lol! Jackery is the simplest solution to solar power that this great-grandma can understand and use.

[@elizabethapfelbaum1240]

Amen sister from another grandma.

[@apage1717]

New here, your channel just pop up/pop in. Jackery needs to send you more. You're the best reviewer full of info down to detail. I'll bet Jackery fly out of the shelves.

[@cyndykated358]

Jackery got their money’s worth with your great fun review! This would be great to have in any home for emergencies. You and Joey are too cute! Safe travels.

[@SBsHappyLittleCloud]

What a great presentation! Jackery knew what they were doing when they reached out to you.

[@bonniebogert5271]

Great review, clear, concise and informative! You're a natural! I'm not a van lifer but still want one of these Jackery power stations to help with my daily power consumption and in case of emergency. Ease of use being the main selling point!!

[@NinjaMakiroll419]

Definitely can’t wait to see more travel vlogs and the JACKERY!! Thank you.

[@olwenrussell7840]

Wow that was great.i needed all that info.they couldn't of gifted it to a sweeter person.so happy for you.the pic of joey had him looking like he was so proud of his new solar panels. 😃🐕

[@starrmcnally3032]

What a wonderful opportunity! I love jackery!! You're all set now!!

[@carolecota9625]

I bought the jackery for the same reason it wasn’t complicated and easy for me to do. So happy for you that you were given this opportunity.

[@cmi7439]

Congrats on the upgrade! Very nice that Jackery reach out to you. Looks like an awesome setup. Hope its making vanlife easier.

[@coleenoliva291]

Hi Chantelle! This is by far the best review of the Jackery battery on KZbin. Your explanation is so clear even I could understand it! And really really makes me want a Jackery. I should have one before my trip in June. And your location is SO beautiful. I just LOVE the shot of you sitting in your chair in in the sun in your bucket hat with the gorgeous landscape behind you. You look SO happy. You are in your element girl. I'm so happy FOR you. Hugs!

[@MyBasicJourney]

❤❤❤😊

[@williamley7380]

Awesome score!!! I have the Explorer 500 and love it!!! Powers my fridge and other items...Enjoy and happy adventuring.

[@hopegrijalva8984]

Awwww, congratulations for being selected to receive this opportunity. I was excited for you, with you!!

[@csimon1951]

That’s so wonderful! So happy for you! Jackery should be really happy with this review! You did a super job!!

[@debslifesimplified6406]

Congrats on the Sponsorship of the Jackery upgrade. Now you have three 100 watt panels that is great.

[@TheCleo1958]

So glad they chose you, you deserve it, loving your channel x

[@conservativenellie5876]

How exciting you’re famous ! Jackery has contacted you to to do a review 👌 How much does this system cost?

[@Inthesouth2]

Just the Hackery is $999 I didn't check for the solar panels. 😢

[@natsnest6347]

Jackery is an absolute game changer!!

[@grannianni7681]

So happy for you and Joey, life will be so much easier for you now, with more power. I wish you all a wonderful new year and stay safe! Blessings

[@tinabeane]

That is so SWEET!!!!! Wow that is so much power and the two solar panels too!!!! I have a Jackery 300 and just love it. Awesome review, thanks so much for all the details.

[@sakurasu907]

Congrats to you! I’m a HUGE Jackery fan and thrilled you were gifted the Explorer 1000

[@MsCar2008]

Jackery was smart to have you check out the 1000 you did a great job.

[@karinhart489]

Well done Jackery! A minivan dweller that does real world testing. Looking forward to seeing you use it as time goes on in your adventures. I have the Jackery 290 (honda licensed) station & Jackery’s tri-fold 60w panel for recharging. This is enough for me.

[@jasmin0930]

This is so wonderful I am so happy for you. I know before you absolutely loved your Jackery and now I can’t even imagine how great this will be how much freedom you’ll get. You totally deserve this and I’m so happy 2021 it’s going to be so good for you and Joey

[@lindac7146]

How lucky you are to be given a Jackery 1000 So grateful to know that I can run a blender with the J 1000. That alone would make it a worthwhile investment.

[@lindac7146]

@Kelly McMahon I'm aware.

[@nickjacques6087]

Happy to learn how easy this is and the charge time in the sun. Thank you for the video

[@Zeldagirl64]

I have the 1,000,500 and the 240 jackery! I think they are wonderful, I have the solar as well! You explained set up so well! I am happy the set them too you!

[@janicem4382]

I am so happy for you! Thank you Jackery. You did a very good thing.

[@nclare7]

So happy for you! I just splurged and bought myself a Jackery 500 and a 100 watt solar panel. I'm so excited to use them when I go camping this weekend! I know it's going to be a great investment and will ease my mind about charging everything.

[@zkat13]

Hurray for you!!! What an awesome gift. And Hello lovely lady!!

[@TheVelvetLoungeLife]

Love your enthusiasm. I am Jackery sold if we ever hit the 🛣️ road❗❗❗👍🏼✌🏼

[@Flowergurl2000]

Jackery is very smart to ask you to do a video.

[@hikergirl5693]

So very informative! You made it seem easy to understand for those of us considering Van Life. Always love your videos & of course Joey!

[@Michael-gq2yi]

Glad you got the bigger one for Christmas Thanks to Jackery.

[@joenyc6951]

I hope they put your video on the Jackery Website. That was an excellent presentation of there product.

[@mauricebattle978]

I plan on buying a jackery 1000. I watch you, Chrome, primal outdoors and a few others!!! Thanks.

[@marilynthomson9564]

Wow what a great video! I think Jacari should hire you as their spokes person.I’ve heard others talk about This product but never in this easy to understand informative way. Bravo to you!

[@marilynthomson9564]

Jakery

[@FredB561]

This is so cool you got a major upgrade. You deserve it. And Jackery doing this makes this company number one in my book. If I ever need a power station i know what kind iam buying..

[@horrornerdsam5683]

I’ve watched a lot of Nomads do reviews on the Jackery products and this one is the one I’ve enjoyed the most! We bought the Jackery 300 for ourselves as a Christmas present (no solar panels yet) and we have just been using it in our house so far and absolutely LOVE it! Can’t wait to try it out while camping this year! Jackery seems like a super great company and I’ve heard their customer service is awesome. So cool they sent you the 1000 and two solar panels! Ok confession....seeing Joey so much in this video probably had a lot to do with it being my favourite, as well as your informative review of it! Bet you’ll get tons of use of it!

[@MyBasicJourney]

❤❤❤

[@annied1863]

I'm so happy that Jackery gave you this opportunity. You deserve it. Great video explaining how it works.

[@michellestratford9753]

I am so jealous! I live full time in my rv too and power is my never ending issue. Enjoy!
