Jackery Explorer 1000 - What Can It Power In Your Home?

We pit the amazing Jackery Explorer 1000 power pack against a range of home appliances, and see how it handles the challenge....
Buy the Jackery Explorer 1000: campingsecrets.co.uk/recommen...
PLEASE NOTE: Jackery do not recommend exceeding the max power of the Explorer range as I've shown in this video. It can damage the battery in certain cases, and it is generally never a good idea to rely on the trip circuit of a power station.

If you buy lower wattage appliances, you'll be fine. I have a camping kettle and it works great. It takes about 6% battery to boil the full kettle and it doesn't take long to boil either. It'll also power a lower wattage radiator style header, which is also safer than a fan heater or something with and exposed element. It is also possible to use microwaves, fridges, hair dryers, slow cookers etc.... You just have to buy appliances that peak at 1000W or below and there is a lot out there. I think we have gotten so used to thinking bigger is better and many home appliances are 2000-3000W now. As a camping power station, it's really good.

Great message Louis! I totally agree, although I now love the 2000 Pro even more. It charges so fast!

[@RikHoward.]

The best test I've seen so far.

[@brendagoode7373]

Great video. Just bought the Jackery 1000 so found your video very useful showing what appliances work with the Jackery. Thanks.

[@karlwicklow5358]

brilliant video mate I've got the jackery 240 and the 500 but I'm definitely about to order the 1000 right now my wife is going to kill me 😅

[@CampingSecretsUK]

If you could click on my link to the 1000 in the description before you buy then that would really help me mate!

[@LaLaArtLand]

Been watching Jackery reviews all day tring to decide..best video on the web! Thanks

[@CampingSecretsUK]

no problem!

[@Alaskalad]

Wow that is a must have piece of Kit and so transportable around the house and garden, this must be a have item for all DIY enthusiasts.

[@CampingSecretsUK]

John - it is extremely useful, especially in conjunction with solar charging and high energy prices!

[@kevjones2107]

That was very useful I've just purchased one and this was very useful to know what sort of thing's it can power ATB Kev

[@CampingSecretsUK]

Glad it helped Kev!

[@jamewoods3605]

This is how you show what works and what not. Screw all the nonsense of gibberish mumble BS jargon and show what it can do. Thanks brother you got my thumb!

[@CampingSecretsUK]

Cheers mate!

[@jennymccullough9517]

Does jackery sell higher wattage power banks?

[@Jamiethemouse-hk8ju]

Would this last a for a 4 day camp trip running a fridge and multiaple phone chargers and ipads

[@SMITH-lw3rv]

Hi man that was brilliant. What about a : TV Hair Dryer Toothbrush I'm clueless when it comes to Watts / Voltage etc so you're video is really helpful.👍

[@CampingSecretsUK]

Hi mate - yeah it will power a TV and toothbrush very easily. My wife's used it for her hair (I haven't got any!), and a hairdryer works well on the first (medium) setting but trips the Jackery on high power. Bear in mind that a hairdryer will drain the juice quite quickly (about an hour total), especially if you're boiling kettles as well. Great for a quick blast though.

[@MrBasinator]

This is cool, thank you, but I wonder how long it could power those appliances with a fully loaded battery.

[@CampingSecretsUK]

I'm going to do a video on this.....

[@MrJasdog107]

Brilliant bit of kit and its idiot proof very usful for motorhome / camping . We have had a Jackery 1000 for year or so now can't fault it.

[@CampingSecretsUK]

It is great. I've jist received the 2000 Pro to review with 600W of solar panels. Gonna be fun!

[@mjcfsutton]

What is the actual lifespan of a Jackery 1000 battery. Certainly it would depend on its usage so using it moderately, summer camping and emergency only home use - would you say 5 years, 10 years? Or more ? I would expect that after a set amount of time the battery itself would become less reliable to recharge and eventually would expire.

[@CampingSecretsUK]

Interesting question. Jackery say that it can support 500 charges up to 80%+ capacity over its lifetime. So if you use it 25 times per year say then it should last 20 years. If you're using it more continuously then I really wouldn't be able to comment. Hopefully I can report back at a later date on this.

[@Dougthespud89]

Would it work for a tumble dryer? 😊

[@CampingSecretsUK]

Electric dryers use anywhere from 1800 to 5000 watts of energy, on average, dependent on the load and cycle configurations. This equates to about 1.8 to 5 kWh of electricity. So no. 👍

[@Dougthespud89]

@@CampingSecretsUK Thank you that's very helpful.

[@captaindj9790]

It clipped off when I used my blower (tried)

[@CampingSecretsUK]

That's irritating! I was surprised that mine worked to be honest, but the surge was obviously within the acceptable range

[@truth3358]

Try your kettle again my works

[@CampingSecretsUK]

That's great! A small travel kettle will work (1000W or less), but a big one won't. Cheers!
