    Enjoying your channel, Professor. Learning a lot about these power units. I have a couple of now ancient Jackery 160 units, for the plane, they still charge a Mac at 80W. Full charge after a year in the drawer. Agree on the missing 12v outputs on this 1500 model, staying 'tuned'.

    That fan noise seems excessive.
    For me, if I ever want something that large, I would suck up the heavier weight of Lifepo4

    • @CC-gt3ro
      @CC-gt3ro 3 года назад +1

      Don’t forget lifePo4 don’t work under 0C temp. Jackery still work at -10C. Bluetti ac200p cannot (look the user reviews and specs). But lifecycle are greater. Yes. The ideal would be a new battery type with both advantages. Speciàized battery that work in the cold are more expensive with less lifecycle.

  • @wilyscott5838
    @wilyscott5838 3 года назад +10

    It seems to me that the Bluetti EB150 is a better value at $1,000 for 1,500wh of power. I realize the EB150 has a smaller inverter and is missing a couple of things that are on this new Jackery, but a 1,000 watt inverter paired with a 1,500wh battery is probably fine for most applications. Stated differently, I’m not sure an inverter that can drain the battery to zero in 60 minutes is all that useful. If you have loads in excess of 1,000 watts that are non-negotiable, the Bluetti AC200 with a bigger (lifepo4 !) battery seems like a better value at a slightly higher price and with many features that this new Jackery doesn’t have.

    Loved the review, as always. You complained about the lack of CPAP applicable 5mm or 6mm DC outputs. However, one of the most widely used, the Resmed Airsense 10 uses the DC car plug for its official DC adapter. So really, no problem there. It's good to go to power CPAP.

    awesome review Prof... disappointed in Jackery for not using LiFePO4 at this price range and already in 2021 :)

    • @CC-gt3ro
      @CC-gt3ro 3 года назад

      LifePo4 have good lifecycle but they have cons as well. Much much heavier (jackery 2000 is 19kg when Bluetti ac200p is 27kg) and don’t work under 0C degree température which is an issue if it is winter in canada. You would have a generator but it can’t work and would shutdown like the Bluetti ac200p (look at amazon and the review of the guy that tried to use for its farm non heated). The jackery can work at -10C which is a bit better but it cannot charge under 0C according to the specs if i don’t mistaken. You have to think if there is no electricity there won’t be heater so the room will easily go below 0C when outside it is -20 or -15. So lifePo4 is not the 100% solution. Lithium battery specialised for this application are more expensive and with less life cycle, because they use energy to heat themselves. You would need a battery heater but you need energy for that.

      The jackery 1500 is better than the ac200p in efficiency and weight, and the inverter is better. Also the jackery 1500 has physical button and don’t rely entire on the screen. Also the screen is readable outside in the sun which is not the case for bluetti ac200p.

    I had a problem with 500W Jackery power bank went abruptly dead from appearing fully charged.
    I was using a 100W Harbor Freight Solar Panels kit with a home built adapter. It would put about 35W into the Jackery and I'd get a False Reading of 99-100% charge, and then the unit would abruptly fail.
    Since I live not too far from Jackery's main office in Fremont, CA I hand-delivered my unit back to them. I ended up buying one of their proprietary 100 watt solar panel "Books," it delivered more like 70% under hazy conditions. I have the Power Bank Charging on 120VAC at the time of this writing.

I use them to power my refrigerators and charge batteries, while on off road adventures. Granted, I bought the 1500 at the start of summer, so it's only been used when it is hot during the day and warm at night. Based off of your capacity test, the 12v should have a bit more than 4x the capacity of the 300. I find that is not the case and that it is lower than that. My guess, it's because of that damn fan!!! Even just using the 12v outlet, if it is over 80 degrees, that thing is screaming! I've also noticed that when it is hot, and you are doing pass through charging, it will start to limit the input watts. The 300 or 240 just don't care, until they get too hot and stop charging lol. I am sure those fans will protect the batteries better and extend the life of them. I just can't help but to think that the fan profiles are a bit too aggressive and consume more energy than they really need to. That being said, I'm still glad that I bought it. I'm hoping that now that it's cooling down, I'll start to see better results with it.

    I spoke with Manuel and indeed he lost his book. Thank you for finding it. He will email you shortly if you could kindly return his book. I fear he may be licking the 12v circuits so it would be greatly appreciated if you could send the manual back so he doesn't harm himself. Thank you. Great channel by the way.

    Just ordered a 1000, no solar panels and was thinking about adding the 1500 with solar panels. But, your dislikes is causing me to hold off. I may get another AC adapter for the 1000 and shorten the recharge duration. I'm only using it here in Florida to get through hurricane outages to supplement my gas generator.

    Thank you for your review. I' m from Germany and I'm very interesting in those technicals things. Jackery is now in Europe (so in Germany). The new Jackery 300-in my mind a good Jackery- (2000, 1500) is/are not available, only 240, 500 and 1000. I've bought a Jackery 1000 and one Solarpanel 100. The Solarpanel is great, the Jackery is defect. But I must say, that the service from Jackery is very! interesting to solve my problem - nice. USA - Germany is a long way (sorry, my english is'nt very good). Thank you and greetings from Uta

    One of my main intended uses is for refrigerators and freezers. Once cold, they should be moderate power users, but when the compressor kicks in, the voltage/power spikes briefly. Can you test these "solar generators" in that use case? Duration, two at the same time while solar charging at the same time....

    I love the size, capacity, faster charging & inverter of this unit, but it’s the battery cycles that turn me off with most all of these units.
    I think I’m crazy because last week I bought a battle-born 100 amp hr battery and I’m making my own unit, unfortunately it will be overly large, heavy & could be more expensive than this Jackery but all individual parts will be replaceable if one component fails.

    What they done with the newer panels compared to the older panels it's kind of like Christmas lights when one bulb goes out they all go out the new panels when one goes out the rest stay lit, by going out I'm referring to when a corner of the panel goes into shade, or even a lesser amount of light.

    Excellent review as always, but one thing you said confused me. You said that Jackery did not put on 12 volt 5.5mm or 6mm outputs like they did on almost all their other power stations. I have the Jackery Explorer 1000, 300 and 240 and none of them have a 5.5mm or 6mm 12 volt output. Why are you saying most have them?

    As always, I learned, I laughed. Why, oh why, is it always 2 steps forward and one step "back" (the things you pointed out)?! Jackery, you're killing me, and not the humorous kind of killing me. Every time Hobotech does a review, I think to myself, this is gonna be the ONE. The one Jackery I'm going to whip out the credit card for, even though on SoSec it could take me the rest of my life (slight exaggeration) to pay off. But every time, you pull a head-slapper (see Tom's "what I don't like about this Jackery," starting at 24:12). Jackery, I really really want to buy a powerful "SoGen" from you, but you've got to make it worth my considerable pain. Thank you very much, Tom, for another awesome review. Have a great day! Hugs and kissies for Odin and Thor! ODIN !!!!!

    Wish they'd always include one unregulated 12V port. There's so much loss with both the regulated 12V and the inverter ports - if you have DC equipment that can run off voltages down to 11V, you can eke out about 10%-20% more run time.

      @@AskIveSolar I'm not one to air out my dirty laundry but it seems that I received a dud 300. I used the PD input along with the AC adaptor and I was getting amazing charging results, just like Dr. Hobo! But soon the port stopped accepting a PD charge from my PD certified adaptor. The PD port doesn't charge either. Now the green USB light stays on and the unit is slowly discharging without even having anything plugged in. I've tried resetting it multiple times. This doesn't seem like normal behavior.
      To top it all off (pun intended) the Jackery customer service has been underwhelming to say the least. It's been two weeks since my original order and I still do not have a fully functioning 300. Their response rate to emails is a day or two between messages. My understanding is that the customer service is highly acclaimed but my experience has been less than stellar.
      All in all, not a good first time experience with Jackery.

    For about $1,375.00 I got a 2200 watt Honda generator and added the hutch mountain propane tri-fuel kit on it. So I can run gasoline, propane and even natural gas. but I've only using propane. Propane as of April 5th 2021 Propane is a $1.49 a gallon and gasoline is $2.55 for 87 octane. With propane I can run the generator, use it for heating, cooking and more. And at times I get free propane I can't beat that deal. Also I made a mobile rainproof generator box. I can run in the rain or light snow 24/7. But sometime I'm going to do some solar and probably a battery box like this. Because they keep getting better, bigger and the price keeps going down with more people in the market. I wouldn't buy one of these unless I plan to use it.

    My E1500 arrived and I'm very disappointed. It came with two Jackery solar panel cables, but each cable says it's output rating is only 185w, so you can't put 300w of power in each input port. No 8mm small to large adapter came with it so I can't even hook up my HQST solar panels to it. What the hell...

  • @CC-gt3ro

    It is confirmed by Jackery that the 1500 is not optimized for one panel and are looking into it. With two panel 2x100 per port it is fine and charge 283w as we see. But they have to tweak the efficiency with one panel. Another user compared it to the jackery 1000 and it was better on the jackery 1000 with just one same solar saga panel which confirm the hobotech result. Jackery said they are looking into it.

    Question. I recently seen a video discussing lithium compression. I understand that lithium has a an expanding and contracting process during charging and discharging. The discussion has suggested that through a process of limited compression of the batteries it will extend the life of them by like 40%. Could you possibly do some testing to see if this theory is true in a practical sense?
