This portable power station is great for blackouts and the outdoors — 44% off!
A portable power station can keep your devices running during a blackout, or when you go for an outdoor adventure. For either situation, the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 is an excellent choice, especially now that you can get it from Amazon with a 44% discount. From its original price of $799, it's on sale for only $449, for incredible savings of $350. We're not sure if the deal will still be available tomorrow though, so you should take advantage of it right now while it's still online. Why you should buy the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 portable power station The Jackery Explorer 1000 received an impressive score of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars in our review, and the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 is an improved version of the portable power station. With a 1,500W AC output and a 3,000W peak output, it will be able to power multiple appliances, such as lights and charging stations during an electricity outage, and cookware and cooling units during camping trips. The Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 features two USB-C ports, a USB-A port, a DC car port, and three AC ports for compatibility with different devices. The 1,070Wh capacity of the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 is pretty hefty, but the portable power station isn't bulky as it weighs only 23.8 pounds — it even has a foldable handle to make it easy to carry. It can go from zero to full charge in just one hour if you activate emergency charging through the Jackery app, and its LFP battery promises a life span of at least 10 years with the ability to maintain more than 70% of its original capacity even after 4,000 charge cycles. There's always high demand for portable power station deals because reliable models of these devices can get fairly expensive. That's why we don't think Amazon's offer of a 44% discount for the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2, which slashes its price to just $449 from $799, will last long. In fact, tomorrow may already be too late for you to pocket the $350 in savings from this bargain, so we highly recommend proceeding with your purchase for the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 portable power station immediately.
