Jackery Solar Generator 3000 PRO 400W, 3024Wh Power Station with 2x200W Solar Panels, Fast Charging in 2.4 Hours, Intelligent BMS, 2xPD 100W Ports for RV Outdoor Camping & Power Outages Black, Orange

Extremely versatile and useful!Here in America's Heartland where tornados and football tailgate parties in the springtime, fishing trips and camping in the summertime and where freezing rain and ice storms are a reality in the winter, having instant available power for light, personal medical devices, keeping your phone charged, and in a pinch heat, is peace of mind. This unit runs a 40" TV all day, at least I've never had to use the panels to charge it while watching the game. It runs my central furnace (conservatively) for three days, more than enough time and comfort to get the gas gennie up and running. For giggles I also tested it using the fridge and it lasted 5 hrs. The phone app is handy but be aware you can only monitor the unit while it's powered up. The monitor panel/app is informative and shows available charge, and wattage draw during use and status while charging.I found this unit to be conveniently and adequately powerful enough for the money to be a very good value for an emergency stop-gap during severe weather and creature comforts when away from a power outlet.

I've only had this unit for a couple days, but so far I'm very happy with it.It arrived ahead of schedule with excellent packaging. It is performing as expected - very easy to roll around - about the size of a salesman's sample case. That's important for an old guy like me(!). At 63 lbs, it's pretty heavy but lighter than an old lead-acid battery counterpart.It really does charge fast -- when plugged into a standard 15amp 110V AC socket, it shows a charge level of 1750 watts. I didn't try it, but if I had put any other load on that AC circuit, it would have tripped my circuit breaker! I recommend you find an AC outlet that has no other load. Alternatively, choose the "slow charge" mode on the phone app and it will draw only about 850 watts when charging.The unit has an optional mode that will extend the life of its batteries by limiting max drain and max charge to a narrower range than 0-100% of total capacity. I had that option turned on, and when the unit wouldn't charge beyond 85%, I thought it was defective. Taking it off "battery saving mode" fixed that. This is done through the Bluetooth/WiFi link to my iPhone via a downloadable app that works well.I tested the solar panel that comes with the unit -- it's rated at 80 watts, but it delivered about 65 watts with bright morning sun. That's a slow charge rate, but it's free energy, and a backup when commercial power is not available. You can add more solar panels if you want to buy them.I'm planning heavy use of this unit for amateur radio "field day" at the end of June. I'll add more info to this review after that (if Amazon lets me). Brownouts are predicted in my area (Arizona) this summer. This unit can help me bridge the brownout if it isn't too long, and then I can recharge the unit on commercial power.I really like the display on the unit as well as the nifty iPhone app. So far it works very well and keeps the user "in the know" any time it's needed.I bought this unit to replace a motley collection of dying AGM lead-acid batteries (very heavy), lots of cables, and some erratic separate power inverters. Ugh. Not very portable.Bottom line: this unit is pricey, but it's so convenient, I think I'm going to love it.UPDATE after 20 months - Works as well as it did in May of 2023. Light usage, and I keep it on the "battery save" mode, only charging to 85% of capacity. WiFi link works great. Expensive, but it's saved me several times. Kudos to Jackery.

I just had this Jackery Solar Generator 3000 Pro for a month and so far so good . I was able to run every single appliances in my house without any problem, the 4 door refrigerator , the 85 inch tv , the 4 in 1 portable air conditioner ,electric fans, of course the smaller tv's and our laptops , tablet and phones and it last for hours of continuous use , and i haven't tripped or overloaded it yet while using all the usb and ac plug ins at the same time. Charging thru the AC is very fast and also works well with solar charging. I only have 2 200 w solar saga panels and it charge well on sunny days, but if i have 6 panels it could charge up to 100% in just a few hours of good sunlight. It is a little heavy but it comes with pull out rod and wheels, so you can wheel it around.The noise level is minimal, barely hear any noise while using it and a little louder when charging with the fast ac charger, but with solar charger it doesn't make any noise The hard plastic casing is sturdy and well built. It also has wifi and app control , so you can monitor the charging input and output watt , and set time to turn it off . Wish this was also expandable I just hope it last long as long as they say it would.
