Kris I have a video request please. Some folks are out there promoting the portable panels like they are the best thing on earth and they are not telling them about the downsides of portable and semi flexible panels. I do not have to resources to buy panels to compare and all I have is mixed sizes. I don't have for instance 100 Watt panels of each type. There is only one way that rigid panels will not outperform portable and semi flexible panels and that is in cloudy conditions. But the portable and semi flexible panels delaminate and have a very short lifespan in comparison to rigid panels. These bigger boxes would really benefit much better by rigid panels versus portable. They are certainly not SHTF worthy. Great for glamping though. Please let folks know. They can get twice the panel for half the cost.

Thanks for this informative, well produced video. I pulled the trigger on the 2000 Pro last week during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals. $1079 off a bundle with 2-200 watt panels and a bonus 240. I already have the 500 but needed something much beefier to dry camp with T@B 320 CS-S and to use the small A/C unit inside. Finding a generator I didn’t have to pull start, didnt come in at 100lbs for the battery start was a real challenge. Was absolutely THRILLED when Jackery announced the release of the 2000 Pro. I also needed something that would run my pellet stove/refrigerator during seasonal power outages. Thanks again.

Honestly, they are fairly priced. There's a lot of equipment in these types of devices. Just breaking this specific unit down. There's a 2000w pure sine wave inverter, easily $300-$500 by itself. A robust solar MPPT charge controller, easily another couple of hundred dollars. This particular one has about 2000wh of battery juice which is at least worth around $500-$1000 not to mention the BMS board the battery needs. Then there's all the wiring and connectors that connect everything together inside, a digital screen, usb ports, DC ports, AC ports, cooling fans. If you were to go on Amazon and purchase all you needed to make an equivalent DIY solution. You might save a couple of hundred dollars, even if that much. Though, then you are tasked with the headache of connecting everything, making sure all the wiring is properly gauged, all the connectors, fuses, switches are right and can handle the amps and wattage you want. Which would require quite a bit of research and time to even know what you were doing. I don't think they are price gouging us at all on their solar generators. You can barely build one yourself for cheaper and even if you did or could it would probably be with inferior components.

This seems like a pretty good unit but I think lithium ion is probably a deal breaker. I'd really like to see a dedicated review to the Ecoflow Delta Pro and how it compares to the Bluetti. It's very heavy and very expensive, but I'm really considering this model for both its capacity and the lithium iron phosphate battery technology. The number of recharge cycles makes the cost hurt less. But just wanting someone else to tell me its worth the plunge. I would also like to know if Ecoflow's 400W panels are worth buying. The reviews on those haven't been *great* b/c the kickstand doesn't seem to fully support the weight but there are things that can be done about that.

This can run an electric kettle, which turns out to be an important use case for us. The only demerit so far is that it charges too aggressively and we have had 15 amp breaker trips when the same circuit are running some a few small devices. We have had to keep it on its own dedicated circuit to avoid this design misfeature. The charging rate should not ever approach 15 amps of current for what should be obvious reasons.

Would it be cheaper to buy deep cell batteries, inverter, and charge controller? I understand the jackery is portable but I don't plan on leaving my house and I don't have a lot of cash so looking for alternatives. Could you please make a video of a cheaper alternative about the same wattage but piecing it together? Or maybe someone write and help me out because I don't have a lot of knowledge about solar cell kits

City Prepping, first thank you so very much for your generosity in helping some of us through some of these confusing figures.(Nothing against you, it’s just that I don’t understand)But perhaps that even though you’ve given in-depth reviews there’s some of us that just don’t get it. I know I’m asking for myself, maybe a few others but w/ the potential of upcoming blackouts what (perhaps other community members) would you suggest for a solar generator to operate a small space heater?

Well I just commented on another video about power but then found this. Can you talk sometime about how you have your home solar set up? Most installations I have seen locally, if the grid is down, the solar power doesn’t work either.

i have watched your channel for years and have come to trust your methods and honesty. i would like to see you do a review of the titan solar generator. i have seen it and it seems pretty impressive, but i need an honest review before buying one because, well, i'm a poor man and i can't afford to mess this up and these things are pricey to say the least. any help would be appreciated. thank you

Many many thanks for this informative video. I am quite new at this and wanted to ask advice. I live in a Dallas suburb and am quite concerned with losing power during the summer. I was partially paralyzed in an accident and need air conditioning. What little mobile air conditioning unit would you suggest that would work with the Jackery Explorer 2000 Pro? Truly truly appreciate your help.

Since storing any lithium based battery fully charged is know to be damaging to the battery cycle life, I find these devices to be questionable for practical shtf use.

@@msgottaneedtoknow kind of defeats the purpose of emergency power, but yes. I believe 50% charge is recommended for storage of 90 days or more. Which means, of course, when you need it, it will only have half of its rated energy/ time.

Too bad the MPPT controller in the 2000pro "falls asleep" sometimes and for it to accept input from the solar panels you need to unplug them and plug them back in to wake the controller up.......
