Last year I was researching something more comparable w/ an inverter. Battle born with a 160w/200w renogy setup. I think that ran $1200-$1300 and the Jackery ran $1500ish. Who knows with current pricing as it’s gone bonkers. That’s the main downside to the Jackery. It’s absolutely more...

I changed my “derail” comment immediately after posting as it was mistaken. If we are talking about the concept of companies sending products for reviews, that is different. That is not what this thread is for. This thread is to discuss the article I wrote, I fear we have become off topic.

[ The combined Explorer 1500 and SolarSaga panels are the Solar Generator. They are 3 different things. See my wording in screenshot.

I am simply replying to your post. I have nothing to defend. I suppose a lot of this should be aimed at Jackery for their naming system, not at someone who wrote a review and referred to the unit by its name (and also specified what the unit is, as well as what it is not). As for the rest...

The product is called the Solar Generator 1500. It generates and stores power, derived from solar. Do you have an alternate title? When people google search a review for this product, they will google search “jackery solar generator review”. As for power outages, no one is running their home...

I don’t believe I stated anywhere that the Jackery is a generator, if it comes across that way it is absolutely not my intention. Please quote where so I can modify. I did ask the question of why most TTs and RVs still come with generators, and why few come with complete solar systems. Hope to...

For your first paragraph, I repeatedly stated that you or me have differing needs. I have worked with friends on full Renogy and Victron builds, I have friends with Goalzeros and Jackerys. Each person has a specific use case. As for the generator aspect, the battery bank is called the Explorer...

I just posted my thoughts on the Jackery I've been using. I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone reading this thread would check it out! https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/jackery-solar-generator-1500-the-best-solution-for-powering-camp.40870/

Yes, Wildcat Mountain! Just south of that. I was going to sleep there, but there was a sketchy RV lol.

I mean, the chances of me being back up in the northeast next fall are probably pretty decent. So I will absolutely check it out for sure! Thanks Fair enough haha. When I was there it was like 75 in the day, no clouds. I was the only person anywhere getting in the water but it was perfect...

brycercampbell.com: Jackery Solar Generator 1500: The Best Solution for Powering Camp? If you’re anything like me, you like to disconnect. Whether a long weekend, or years driving cross-country, everyone has their preferred methods. Something that everyone has in common, though, is the need to...

Something I want to include if anyone is reading this in the future, I made one modification to the tent and some routine maintenance. The plastic around the stitching tends to come off over time. I superglue it back on when that happens, could probably fix it many other ways. As for the mod...

Oh man I heard a lot of good things about Moose River Plains! Definitely gonna stop next time I’m up there. How did you like it?? And we probably came within a few ft of eachother at some point haha. Thanks also, I only write these posts because people read them!

Ahh unfortunately (or maybe fortunately!) not. I drove past the sign for Diana’s Bath and wasn’t sure if it was worth stopping at! If you’re looking for the spot, it’s a pullout somewhere along this stretch of 16. If you drive north from Jackson, it’ll be on your right. If you get to the ski...

Agree. The weather is insane up there, and a few decent sized pull offs to hang out at.

Like I said, I'm only in Charleston for a few days before I head back into the mountains. When we were on the parkway, most of it was green. I think I have a bit of time before I head up Thursday morning. For now, it's been great to stop back home. I forgot hiking boots, the poles for the tent...

The next day was all driving. There’s something therapeutic about it, especially in Big White Truck. Before I started taking road trips, I would find excuses to drive. To Costco to get a churro, to the beach to watch the sunset, even taking trash to the dumb 45min away. Nowadays gas is pretty...

Garmin is necessary with time, not for your first small trips. If you go more often, I would splurge and buy one. It is worth it. Not debatable is: zip ties, duct tape, sharp knife, phillips AND flathead, tire plug kit (I use the slime one you get at Autozone), air compressor, phone, USB...

This is genuinely the dream. Looking forward to this so much

How many people are you trying to sleep? XL can mean a lot of different stuff.
