Best comment!
We have used the czcams.com/users/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
“Designed by a former Apple engineer”
This is going to be expensive.
Yeah, 1000 USD for a lithium car battery in a case...
@@BilldalSWE There are no lithium car batteries. Cars use lead acid, which is an inherently terrible battery technology for technological uses like this. There are some LiFePo4 batteries for RVs, but they range from 500-1000 USD.
I'm not saying this is reasonably priced, but it's a far shot from a car battery.
@@hunterm9 They were almost certainly referring to the lithium batteries used to power electric cars, not the traditional battery in normal cars for starting the engine etc.
As in a tear-down of a lower capacity version, that person found it to be very similar to those found in electric cars:
czcams.com/video/gRhPooSPprY/video.html
The price doesn't actually seem that bad though, and seems fairly similar to other brands.
The 2000W pure sine wave convertor adds a not insignificant cost vs a bare battery.
@@hunterm9 While not common there are 12V LiFePo4 sold as starter batteries. Just google them. Higher power output, lower weight, keeps the charge longer when the car is in storae etc so they are gaining in popularity. Sure, they are much more common as battery banks in boats and RVs because of the price but my point is this is likely an of the shelf product packed in a case for a 100% price increase. Some people might still think it's worth it but it's hardly a revolutionary product like Linus seem to have been payed to say...
@@hunterm9 there are 12v lithium motorcycle and car batteries which many people use. Please educate yourself before commenting.
7:00 when that dust floated right by the camera I low-key thought it was smoking!
You know that you really cant afford something when they dont even tell the Price in an LTT video
I assumed it was 1000 dollars
"If you have to ask, you can't afford it"
Just like a lot of their laptop showcase/reviews. If they don't mention a price, expect $2k+.
It's listed at $999 on the Jackery website
Especially considering all this is is a car battery and a 1000w inverter in a fancy case.
"gotta do more cinebench" yeah, im sure people will be saying that when camping with this :)
I mean people who live in vans and RVs use these so who knows
It's not like anyone would go to Linus Techt Tips channel to gain knowledge about camping.. or at least I am not..?
@@johnbenedictdelacruz4153 I can see him doing a 4k gaming while camping video with this battery haha
If you’re not doing cinebench while camping you’re not camping right
He could have just done a full length Blender Classroom render, because those will go for at least an hour.
"it's been a while since I've unboxed something this balls to the walls insane" didn't you just open a $60k server?
Maybe this was filmed earlier and released later?
I mean it's LTT. A $60k server is not the most insane server they have done. Though for that matter this isn't the most insane battery they have unboxed either. That honor goes to the UPS in their server room, which is as big as a grown man. Or 1.5 Linuses.
@@docferringer They already got a $17,000 UPS for their servers. Lol.
This was recorded a while ago
And a $30000 television lol
Impressive energy density in that package. I've used SLA batteries about that size and you only get about 72Wh on them (and they're probably a lot heavier too). 1000Wh in that same package, with 2000W peak/1000W continuous current is INSANE (typically, the downside to using LiPo, or similar, batteries is that the current you can pull from them is substantially lower than less energy-dense alternatives).
mom:would you just go outside instead playing ur computer all day？
me:
"Not very often I get to open up something this insane", after just releasing a video unboxing a 6tb memory server on ltt.
When you sponsor something for Linus everything is insane
which he even said in the video, would cost 40-60k easily

I'm impressed you just talked about a giant battery for 9min it's kinda impressive
He runs on Energizer
@@joellouisfire nah Duracell!
What’s more impressive is they didn’t stretch it to 10 mins for ads
@@phionfire It's been lowered to 8 minutes some time ago
@@phionfire it's because he was sponsored silly!
(And btw you can get monetized now with 8 mins instead of 10)
I have the 1000 and a 500 and use them often with at my storage space as there is no AC power there - I run servers, PCs, Switches/routers/firewalls for hours at a time (I usually get a solid 6 hours on the 1000 alone). Jackery is excellent! Glad to see you guys do a "review" of it!
I work security and have a portable gaming system with a built in monitor. What generator would be good for using to power my 19 inch monitor and my ps4. I'm looking to get atleast 5 hours of gaming time out of it. Is it even possible?
@@GaryCOLLOMAN. did you ever figure this out? I’m in the same situation as you.
@@spencethegreat38 I ended up buying a ps portal lol
@@GaryCOLLOMAN. I’d get a portal if they didn’t require having a PS5. I only own a gaming laptop :/
Sounds like Linus is really in a comfy place, he sounds like he is having lots of fun doing this.
I'd like to meet the person giving out $1000 battery banks as Christmas gifts. Almost bought one until I realized how much it cost.
At that price, just buy a Honda 2kw generator..
I heard the founder of Jackery is an ex Apple engineer, so yeah
@@_JasonWillis where did you hear that...
You could literally build a Tesla Powerwall for pretty much the same money ;but it will last way longer.
@@tylerquante4720 generator? You mean with cylinders?
I bought that 1000W back in May for hurricane season here in Puerto Rico, back in September we lost our power and plugged the fridge for almost 8 hours and it worked perfectly. I'm using 3rd party solar panels with Anderson Cables and they work perfect.
Do yall have America's sockets
@@joshentertainment2 Yes.
What are you solar panels out of curiousity ?
@@Klapeful I use some third party panels that I bought on Amazon back in 2017 and with the anderson cables adapters I can plug in the Jackery to them and charge it if necessary. Maybe in a near future I'd buy the Jackery panels which are lighter and very portable.
@@drake8168 Got it, thanks !
My 900w UPS will only run my gaming rig for about 10 minutes. I should get this.
Sees price: Nope, I'm good.
For the lazy: "discounted" to $899.99 USD on their website for the 1000W rated portable power station.
wew, lad
1150$CAD on amazon, forget it
Have a like, just for having a UPS..
lol my 650W one can run for about 30-45 minutes, but my pc isn't that power hungry (i5 10400 and RTX 2070S) so I guess it makes sense
@@defeqel6537 wdym, why is that like worthy, it's not like y'all have any power cuts in the first world countries anyway
Would love to see an “energy efficient” desktop build to try and get the max gaming time out of the battery and compare it to a “gaming laptop”
You basically just saw that exact same thing. These Jackery amps have solar arrays you can hook up that can basically completely offset the amount of power he was just using. I live the 'digital nomad' life out of a Mercedes Sprinter, and this Jackery plus 4 solar panels keeps my entire 'grid' up. I let it charge while I'm just sitting around or splitting wood for fire or whatever, and I leave the panels plugged in while gaming. I game on an Omen 30L and two 31 inch AOC curved monitors and with my 4 solar panels it charges faster than it consumes. Best part about this set up is that I can even charge it while I'm driving because it came with a 12v cigarette charger. So long story short, with 4 solar panels and having it charge while I drive I use this to power a gaming set up as well as a full 'van life' set up for essentially free.
@@BartonHNewell Hi, first of all excuse m'y english.
I have few questions about how do u use your setup and your "way of vanlife"
I have a pc gamer(less powerful) in my van too but get some issues with battery.
For now i have 350w of Solar and 220ah gel battery.
I hesitate between increase my solar park, or the power station option like this one.
(For info im travelling through Europe so less Sun than US)
How many hours can you play on without sun ?
I like it, I would love if it had a pass through feature as a battery backup so you can keep it plugged in as power conditioner and backup for your desktop during the week and take it with you on the weekend for camping or tailgating. Great product.
"Oh, this monitor is only 1080p. That's for plebs." Good to know where I stand.
🤣👏🏻
I mean he’s not wrong lol
it could be worse, if you were still on 720p, you'd have to hand in your gamer card
I know its a joke......but i sure as hell could care less about any sort of opinion from a sponsor-baby.
sad 720p noises
When my obsessions with van life and technology finally combine
Looking at van battery banks and the know how involved to build one always scared me away. I wonder how long this could run a space heater?
@@jus10beare Just depends on how power hungry your space heater is. But on the explorer 1000 in this video I think 2-4 days continually. But that depends on if you can run it on 12v or if you have to convert it through AC.
Lol! I also was not expecting this out of Linus media group, I mostly see these on vanlife and prepping channels.

YEEEEEES
"Jackery" I've never seen a marketing department be so forthcoming 😆
Funny to watch this after seeing these for years on outdoor/overlanding channels. Like your grandfather discovering CDs.
This is probably the most practical thing ever featured on this channel.
if by practical, you mean practically a giant piece of garbage. Oh wait i mean literally a giant piece of garbage.
Converting from dc to “pure sin-wave ac” then back to dc for the pc and laptop
Wat
Well of course.
You wouldn't want to disassemble your pc to plug in the required 12 volt headers would you?
With the next gen of motherboards might actually get UPS that you plug directly into the case supplying all of the 12 volt you could wish for.
Given laptops often are 18 or 24, they would not be compatible. Unless you have one of the babies with usb type c charging.
Compatability is better than efficiency in a lot of cases. 🤷♂️
I don't think any of the devices tested would have had a problem with cheaper square wave inverter
@@glenmcgillivray4707 Use a buck-boost converter to get the exact voltages.
Oh man this would be so cool for location filmmaking, especially with the solar power aspect. Generators work but they're loud and dirty
I mean, for linus or any other small film making operation this is great. For full budget films, those genny's could run cities (which is basically what they do).
Especially if each battery inside gets its own solar cell itll charge in like 30 minutes and when your done all batteries will stack up again
The solar panels are useless. Not nearly enough power.
Linus: '120V'
The device, printed in large letters: '110V'
Does it really matter?
At my house, we get 135V, that's 25 free volts!
Peak to peak? RMS? Pure sine? Measuring AC power is stupid.
HAH! They added a power splitter.
I've actually ran a 6 outlet power splitter/bar off my jackery 240 unit myself.
Linus you have to check "WATTS Battery". It's modular and you can even stack them up. Imagine Tesla's Powerwall but portable!! Way more suitable for on-site shooting, or anything really. I've been using it mainly for camping so far but the use cases are infinite.
2:23 "You can power anything you want" "120V". Not in Europe, we've got 230V. Correct me If I'm mistaken or something :V
Look at the plugs.
I assume they have a EU version since its just an overgrown power bank with an integrated inverter, and jacking it up to 240 isn't particularly difficult. Linus probably only showcased the 120V version since he has no 240V devices
Pretty sure nearly all of Europe has such little power outages, nobody would think about getting something like this.
North America uses 120volts for a typical wall plug. Europe uses 230-240volts for their wall plugs. I wish 208/230/240 was typical due to amp draw. Note that most homes in the US do have 208/230 volts single phase at their breaker panels which is used for clothes dryers, air conditioner, or other high Amp appliances. I think Canada and Mexico do to. Canada however uses 50hrz whereas US is 60hrz.
Their website is only shipping to Canada, USA and Japan. Looks like the rest of the would just has to try something else out.
The "On Battery" settings for Windows desktops makes sense now.
It's more useful for a UPS, where you usually have a data hookup between the battery and the desktop that lets it know if it's on battery or mains, and what the remaining runtime is. That way the computer can go into a power-saving mode to extend your runtime, and automatically hibernate when the battery gets low.
@@guspaz Yep! That's how my UPS works with my desktop. The UPS connects to my desktop via USB, and Windows sees it as a battery just like it would if I were running on a laptop. Furthermore I can get stats in HWiNFO64 like power draw, battery %, battery life remaining, etc.
i have it for my ups on the lan party when some idiot flipped the power off

finally, when the apocalypse comes I can still power my pc
But how u gonna recharge it again ..in apocalypse electricity 🔌 will be gone na😅
My mum always says: " go out playing - the weather is so nice." Since Jackery I can play video games with my whole pc outside. Love you jackery
0:39 I thought he was gonna say "this puppy can run crysis" lol
Missed opportunity
I was like "Why is he hyping this up so much?" Then..."This video is sponsored by..." oooooh, ok. Get it now.
There are other power stations like this out there. Varying in cost and power output. Can't say this is anything new. They are usually pretty expensive by good in a pinch.
The hype is real with this product. I have a smaller version and wow is it built well.

Love Jackery's portable unit's. Helped me out big time while homeless.
Sound like you're on your feet now, if so I'm glad and proud that you didn't give up
Similar products have been around for a long time. I used one at my first job over 8 years ago.
yup, these things have been around for decades... the only "new" feature about this is USB Type C, for obvious reasons.
It even says since 2012 on the box
@@gamerfortynine most UPS have lead batteries that are great for sitting at full charge for long times and maybe survive a few full discharges before heavily degrading.
@@gamerfortynine i think people did forget these because they are living with better power supply options i remember my 2012 days oh god until I had one "UPS" those power cuts damn my hdd crashed way back then bcz of this 😒 i guess technology with time
@@gamerfortynine a UPS isn't the same thing as this. Very different use cases
Imagine trying to bring this on a plane.
I am looking for one here in Chile and Amazon does not deliver here for that reason.
Batteries on airplanes are capped at 100Wh. Same reason why Larger cameras have many 98Wh battery variants so they are travel-friendly.
you can't. at least not in North America
@@dbsm666 Look at more traditional camping suppliers. This isn't a particularly novel item and someone must do ground shipping world wide due to the battery issues.
I think you'd have a better chance of convincing them to let you bring a Note 7.
"Jackery," someone needed more focus groups. C'mon guys. You're missing that the name of this thing makes it sound like it's made by Fleshlight.
So you saying the name isn't good I would call it just jack
"Highwayrobbery" would be better brand name for this.
@@playswithblades it’s a big honking battery, expect it to cost a lot lol. It’s competing with thousand dollar generators
@@tech6hutch - thousand dollar generators put out 10kW or more, so no.
Honestly. Either the "Apple engineer" line is BS or the founder is an idiot because I heard the brand name and immediately assumed it was some B-grade Chinese brand.
Finally! A power station capable of running my rig setup in my tiny house. My grid is on a RV 30AMP box and currently running:
Xbox One S w/24" Vizio FHD 1080p (Running on 1440p)
Ryzen 7 3700x w/ Radeon 5700XT 8GB (running on 1440p 24" LG 144hz)
700watt PSU.
If this baby can power my setup when I'm 'off grid', they can certainly have my $1000. And if anyone has questions about tiny house living for gamers, it's very real and it's 100% possible.
Fun fact: you can run a PC solely on batteries directly as switch mode supplies actually convert the AC from the wall straight into DC as the first step.
If you took 10 or so 12v car batteries and hooked it into your PC's PSU it would boot and run like normal.
This was the most Dad video I have watched today. And I loved it.
How did they not get in a "I'm giving it all she's got captain!"
That is awesome. I had an internship with a photographer and the number of times we were trying to charge something using an inverter in the car or just looking for an outlet was nuts. This is not a game changer for somebody that lives on the road for but for construction people, photographers, etc this can really be something else.
I got the 880 watt/hour one from Costco as a packaged deal that came with a 280 and a couple of solar panels. I got the big one for a sick elderly parent who relies on an oxygen concentrator to you know...stay alive. Unfortunately the concentrator pulls about 600 watts give or take and has a high inrush current when started so it's not enough to handle the big machine for anything other than a small outage while someone else is there with him to move it to the area with the machine, etc. For his portable OxyGo machine however, this thing will easily add an extra 11 hours and that's on the highest setting. Best part is that we can use the cigarette lighter port so it's just DC to DC and doesn't waste energy on converting to AC and then back down to DC. So far, he's had two 6 hour power outages and we've made use of this thing. He can drag his little machine to where we have this set up next to his chair and plug it in and not use too much energy.
I do wish that they made these like a UPS power supply where you could just leave the big machine plugged into it and it would automatically kick on when the power goes out. I would have spent the extra $1000 to get the 2000 watt unit if they had something like that and it would buy him an extra 3 hours on his main machine but these are not really set up like that. It has pass-through mode but it will destroy the batteries if used like that.
So it's basically just a giant car jumpstart pack (with lower peak output) + AC inverter.. in a more convenient formfactor
I mean, yeah that's cool and if you're made of money and like camping, would be great to have. But you could make a DIY version using a car battery or two for power storage, lasting longer and allowing higher peak draw, while costing less. It could even jump start your car! (obviously)
Lead acid battery,
DC-AC inverter,
One of those in car 12V socket -> USB power hubs for the 5V output
+ some heavy wiring, fuses/shut off switch for safety, can be rather cheap if you're thrifty.
Hardest part would be getting/adapting/making an appropriate enclosure, I'd recommend with a little PC fan for ventilation while on, too
On today's episode of "Stuff I'll never buy but is hella cool"
He could have just pulled 3090's in SLI, heck of a lot easier than this.
Nvm, multiple 3090's are just an imaginary thing
Yes, but your imagination is a POWERFUL thing! I am running 3090s in 3-way SLI plugged directly into a unicorn and powered by console-n00b tears.
@Gavin M Unless you're a content provider/reviewer... then you get every 3090 out there!
@Gavin M Miners took some of the 3080s, not really any of the 3090s
Not very entertaining, but a heater would be the simplest option, ideally with continuously variable heat settings so you could see exactly how the battery pack handles different power outputs.
wow this battery in a box sure does make the rounds on youtube
Just like that Dyson vacuum and those Raycon ear beans.
Where has this been all my life?

Good on Linus for saying they're not faking it and then saying here's the whole power cord to the wall.
0:12 i'd still call it a battery bank. usually, these things are pricey considering the battery capacities they have.
Since this was sponsored it was probably a marketing talking points thing. Jackery probably wanted them to use the "power station" terminology.
@@roguechemists2781 right
8:38 ah, I see you're a man of culture as well
I’ve been looking into buying the 250w version for camping. Nice review!
I had this thought too, very useful. Reminds me of my apc battery backup but this one is better. ALso its by apple which increases the cost :(
The only real con I hate about rechargeable batteries, if they are damaged through shipping or quality control issue and you are unaware of any damage, they can explode and basically bleed out a torch like fire out of whatever hole, which scares me about backup batteries lol, as they can burn down your home. This applies to any battery powered device rechargeable anyway, just as your phone.
@@koilamaoh4238 That's what LIPO safes are for. I'd recommend them if you have any of those. If large rechargeable batteries were unsafe, they probably would be much more heavily regulated. Also, all that only applies to lithium batteries, Lead-Acid batteries are pretty safe, but can't hold as much power.
Jackery is the cornerstone for my 100w solar panel setup! It can output power to an outlet while charging via solar at the same time... other batteries don't do that!
"My emergency flashlight can't be this BIG CHUNGUS" 🤣🤣🤣

As an astrophotography man. I've been keeping my eyes on this. Sweet that I got a Linus video about it.
My exact same thoughts! Too bad its like $1500 CAD for this one.
Idk man this looks like someone an avx user would buy gotta go with a portable nuclear power plant to power the plane wave mounts that we all have in our shopping cart but will never buy

You know, stuff like this has been for sale in Canada for at least 20 years but it was for starting your car and it just so happened to have full sized outlets. And then later on, USB ports and whatnot. They are called Motomaster Eliminators. Though, it didn't have the pure sine wave feature.
Honestly I love going into power banks and stations I own almost a collection of them. Please do more of these.

I use it at work "auto auction" where I get a LOT of cars that come in with dead batteries and it has done a great job at starting most of them. I would say that i have jumped around 200+ cars with it. Not even sure they still sell these portable jumpers or not but, kudos to them!

LTT is not the industry of manufacturing videos. LTT is in the industry of manufacturing consent.
PS: It's easier to scam people than it is to convince people they have been scammed.
You are you are being exploited by a package of: "The corporation," "Surveillance capitalism," "The century of the self," Milgram experiment" and "Stockholm syndrome."
@@cookiescook9351 This isn't even LTT stfu
Company owned by Ex-Apple engineer. That explains the price then.
If you add up the cost for 1kWh LiFePo Battery, a pure sine wave 1000W inverter, BMS and charger ports you will see that even a DIY solution gets you to 800$, without any warranty or such a nice case
It's 300 dollar right or 500
@@joshentertainment2 I do not understand your sentence.
3:54 "Apparently the company was founded by an ex Apple engineer, who left in 2012. *does a quick google*
"October 29, 2012: Scott Forstall, Apple’s senior vice president of iOS software, is ousted from the company after the disastrous Apple Maps launch."
Me: So he went from digital maps to real maps. With his battery. 🔋
imagine driving down to Yellowstone in your cybertruck with PS5 and OLED TV installed in your Jackery Power Station - car is on autopilot and you think to yourself.. this is the future. Thank you Elon, Linus, shuhei yoshida, and Jackery for my new life
That looks similar in size to an equivalent wattage generated. Seems like an extremely versatile tool, however if there is one addition that can make it a life saver, 12v alligator clip port will be super handy to jump start the vehicle.
I’ve had an old Goal Zero version of one of these for several years.
This would be have been great at a musical festival back when we had them before the event.
These things are super useful, especially for the lay person. But personally I've been swapping everything I can to DC/USB.
Because you're usually paying a premium just for the included AC inverter. And obviously there are losses going from DC to AC to DC.
You can get a genuine 40,000 mAh USB powerbank for like $30 now.
If you buy a couple of those, some USB stand fans (there's some large and good ones now days), usb lights, usb step-up cable to 12v for router, modem etc.
For those on a tighter budget or striving for efficiency, there's better ways than these all-in-one battery units.
But for pure convenience and for short-duration, heavy power loads, those all-in-one batteries are neat 👍
No, what you're really paying for is the cells and design to handle hundreds of watts of output. Those cheapo powerbanks are using low current cells and don't have the circuitry to handle more that ~15W output continuously.
If you want useful at least compare it to a model with USB-PD capable of charging at laptop at 45-60W or so.
@@RobCarter04the pure sinewave inverter isn't cheap either and you're definitely paying for it
@@RobCarter04 trust someone who is working with batterysystems for a living. This thing is very overpriced for what it is. Anyone with sufficient knowledge (no need to be a rocketscientist but basic understanding of electricity is mandatory) can chuck something together for a fraction of the price this thing costs and it will be better. Okey, it will look a little bit more "home depot" but it's definitely doable. All this thing has going is that it's ready to use, safetytested and comes in a handy package.
@@Roguescienceguy Can you provide some examples of cells you can buy in say US that are warranted and don't come from AliExpress special? I mean you can also string together some Yacht batteries as well.
@@Obloms i suggest that if you are interested you should look up Will prowse on youtube. He is in my humble opinion the go to source for everything concerning batterycells in your specific region. Your safetylevels may vary quite significantly from mine as I am operating in europe and some of his suggestions are not allowed in europe but are perfectly fine by US-standards. Europe is a bit too tight on safety imho
He did it. Linus spoke CZcams’s earliest meme. It’s the renaissance
I'd recommend waiting and buying a 2000 Watt portable power station that companies are just now starting to sell. The problem with 1000 Watt output is that a large number of midsize home appliances use between 1000 and 2000 Watts, such as microwaves, space heaters, etc.
So it's a 1500 VA UPS (never been done before, yeah, right...) but without a pass-through option and costing $1000. I think I'll stick to my APC :)
Not the same use case at all tho, so not the same product? It mostly for power tools & all, not computers. Off grid, camping, backup when there are outages. You know?
Not quite. The APC 1500 VA UPS stores 108 watt-hours of energy (according to an Amazon Q&A) in its lead acid batteries and weighs 29 lbs. This power station carries 1002 watt-hours of energy in its lithium batteries and weighs 22 lbs. On the other hand, the APC costs about $100 USD while the Jackery 1000 costs $1,000.
Edit: You can also pass-through charge.
Well yes, acid batteries are heavy, and no, the UPS or its battery expansion (expanded it will be like half of the Jackery's power at like 3x weight ;)) don't have handles on top, so not a luggable design but not like it's stationary ;) Still waaaay cheaper :)
In this comment section there are people talking about using it for power losses, CPAPs and in RVs, where really the few more kilos don't matter.
@soginvl No, it charges from a 24V charger, there's no AC pass-through.
(Also, my UPS's batteries do charge from a solar panel, just not inside the unit ;))
7:00 Thought that was smoke...
Me too lol
Id love to see them build a desktop in with the batteries from this for a "portable" desktop
Pretty cool power unit. Can be really good for those getaway that just requires a little power here and there
Someone will connect the dots and sell the unique opportunity: Buy the Jackery. Makes any desktop a portable. Much better than a laptop, hand truck extra.
