8:56 Indeed great batteries but the cables that connect the expensions should have 90 degree connectors on them. With these connectors it is impossible to put them against a wall or side of the van.
just get a ecoflow system.. look at those connectors that company dont care about costumers or design this system makes no sense in so many ways, it is outdated allready on many points compared to other brands also even if you stack the batteries, you get little power compared to other systems
The more you describe how these things work, the simpler you make it feel to use. I have a job now, so not just SSDI. That means an ABILITY to save for that Van or SUV. Thanks for inspiring us everyday, even with these promotional videos, Chrome.
Just wanted to tell you that your introduction of the new Jackery and its components was really a good presentation. The way you spoke right to the product and how it was used in plain English was outstanding. Thank you!
Wow, this is exactly the kind of info I needed. I’m in the process of purchasing a van with a basic built already in it. Will be needing some sort of energy on my weekend adventures. Following you and The cat Lady van have helped me on my journey to hopefully own my own rig tomorrow.
These weren’t around when he started, so he got something else at the time. He still likes the little one of that brand. What I’m getting from this video is this could be a main power battery for someone just starting out and able to get one of these, with the ability to expand in the future. Over the years he’s had to install different batteries, inverters, and all that.
Our last power outage I gave each kid a solar panel and a cord and sent them outside and told them to plug in the back of the panel chase the sun and leave me alone and it worked 😂🎉 peace and quiet and they were moving all around the property chasing the perfect charge lol 😂😂😂😂
Outstanding video!!! Thank you so much!! I just got my van and am starting my build. I've been looking into all the different systems and this one looks like what I need. I want the power whether I use it all in or not. I want it in case I do... Excellent presentation! ✌️♥️😀
For someone just getting into the nomadic lifestyle or off-grid sticks & bricks...this would be the way to go. If this was available and with different payment options, when I got started 3 years ago...I would have done this.
Yeah chrome that’s why I haven’t bought one of the little ones, rather have more power than I need I’m hoping down the road I can get one. Really appreciate your sharing I have been researching them since you’ve been showing them off. Well enjoy the rest of your day I’ll catch you on the next one until then peace and chicken grease 😁👍👍😎
Ure its nice but seems behind alot of other brands such as bluetti,ecoflow and others that even have gps so if stilen can be found dont beleave there using the newest battery chemistry either. . They sponser you thou so i gst why you support them
How many watts does your AC use (low/med/high)? That will tell you how long it will run. Yes you can charge it from your car alternator. May require a separate purchase (I'm not sure what they include in the kit). Also you can purchase a 500w pure sine inverter that connects to your cigarette lighter and plunge it in that way to recharge. Just make sure to unplug the 500w inverter when the car isn't running 😅
Try to buy one they are out of stock and don’t have any idea when they will be available again! Great advertisement though just can’t get one! Plus the thick cord on the additional battery sticks out to far to be practical in a limited space like a van!
I just got my first Jackery -- 290. You said it was really good. I am in a house and just want power from the sun since I'm an old hippie who needs to do this before I die. I'm afraid to open the box! What if I mess it up somehow?
Talking to myself: I will experiment with this little one and possibly get a 1000 or maybe 2. In a house set-up, I think I want one in the living room and one in the bedroom. At that point, the 290 would act as back-up in a power failure. Oh, I don't even know what I'm doing yet!!
Question from the UK. I've been looking at the American made CR Laurence bunk window like you have at the head of your bed. In the UK, all of the bunk windows are the half window sliders, but I've found one supplier that sticks the CRL window you have. Are you super happy you got that top opening CRL, and I manged to find your fitting video from 2 years ago. Also, is it possible to leave that window open at 60mph, as I also have a dog and I want her to have air flow, so an open window at 60mph is the priority. Many thanks in advance if you get a chance to answer this question?
Great video. I agree the back cables take up valuable space. Also, is the cigarette outlet the only 12v out? Seems there should be a solid 12v outlet to power lights, fridge, etc.
I wish these expansion packs would come with jumper cables that have 90 degree plugs! The straight style takes up SO Much Space! Folks in vans don't have that kind of space - it's already taken up with all our other stuff. Electricity doesn't care if the plug is straight or bent, it just wants to flow. The manufacturers know the distance between units, so there is no excuse to make the cables so unwieldy.
I'm posting thus 3 days after Chrome's last video ( this video). He hasn't posted any videos since then. It is not like him to go several days without a video. Oddly, I haven't had a notification from cat lady van in a few days either, I think. Does anybody know what's up?
I have never needed? Extra battery power out camping. However I'm getting into RV life. My dream was a to build a van out, yea back as a teenager, before all this craze I knew a hippie who was living in a van all decked out... We, my husband and I, chose a smaller 36 ft motor home. Soooo. How does this work we will be doing boondocking as much as possible as soon as we get familer with this vehicle.
@@kjkayjay there are companies that part of their business model is giving back to communities in need. Given the the natural disasters in Canada, Hawaii and beyond, having the ability to charge phones could mean a lot when someone just lost their home.
I get a little disappointed when smaller YT channels get bigger and start pushing products. I understand we all have bills to pay, but there is something about a product pusher that makes me not watch the video. The price with the expandable battery, that is just crazy when Lifepo4 batteries are getting cheaper.
The cord doubles the footprint...terrible design. Output/input needs to be nested in the top & bottom of the units so setting the battery on makes the connection directly - no cord needed. And they seem to be very light and mostly empty plastic. should have a lot more weight / power density for the space it takes.
Yea..Chrome and you ALSO do NOT have or use an air conditioner. You have stated yourself how HOT and MISERABLE it is when it's hot/humid. No thanks. I have to have air, not just for comfort but for breathing issues and common sense!

Wow, I need that 😍 it's perfect.
Currently saving for my power station. Love the idea of having everything in one as space is limited.
Chrome, how heavy is it??
Bam Son
Dang
Chrome, I think you need to throw one in JeffieBears direction for his new ride.
I was just thinking about that!!
JB needs to think of his wheelchair
I second that motion 🤗
It’s gotta weigh quite a bit….
Yeah that’s pretty awesome Chrome Yep I’m here watching , If I do ever get the chance I definitely would get one
8:56 Indeed great batteries but the cables that connect the expensions should have 90 degree connectors on them.
With these connectors it is impossible to put them against a wall or side of the van.
yes, they are bulky and take too much clearance.
Or directly plug from the bottom and top that there is no
that's not a problem if you don't stack them placed side by side the straight plug is better less tension on the wiring.
Yep!
just get a ecoflow system..
look at those connectors that company dont care about costumers or design
this system makes no sense in so many ways, it is outdated allready on many points compared to other brands
also even if you stack the batteries, you get little power compared to other systems
Id like to see the jackery power cables have 90 degree angle connectors those are very bulky if you were going to keep it mounted in your van!
Just made a very similar comment ❤
I was yelling the same exact thing while watching it, and also a longer cable so you don't just have to stack them
Same for my bluetti. My wire comes out the side and it's annoying to tuck away.
@@jeh5c great idea
Jeffrey bear would be a great candidate for one of those
The price of those things are crazy to me
100%. So many other brands are more reasonably priced.
Agreed.
It is a bit pricey
This whole setup in the video is more than I paid for my entire van! Lol
agree very pricey
That was a fantastic presentation. Lots of info, but you make it so easy to understand- thank you!

I was expecting a standard sales pitch. This video was actually very useful. Now I want one.
It’s funny, because I’m not into all that technical electrical stuff, but I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
As soon as Chrome uses one for his primary system...ill consider it. Until then, its a case of "do what I say, not what I do."
These weren’t around when he started, so he got something else at the time. He still likes the little one of that brand. What I’m getting from this video is this could be a main power battery for someone just starting out and able to get one of these, with the ability to expand in the future.

great video Chrome, very well explained 👍
Watched it through...Well done, Chrome. You are definitely a oner! Means one of a kind in my family...love what you do!💜❤️☮️😔
All I can do is put it on a wish list, would run anything I need for days or weeks
If you can learn basic wiring skills you can put together a cheaper setup for way less money and you'll get more power capacity.
Congratulations! You will enjoy this. I am looking forward to have a small jackets for my condo to keep warm in a power outage. Enjoy🎉
Listen to you 3 years later sounding like Will Prouse. You sound great speaking all that tech talk.
The underneath front of the ambulance looks badass chrome. Looks like a gasser ambulance.
Yeah chrome that’s why I haven’t bought one of the little ones, rather have more power than I need I’m hoping down the road I can get one. Really appreciate your sharing I have been researching them since you’ve been showing them off. Well enjoy the rest of your day I’ll catch you on the next one until then peace and chicken grease 😁👍👍😎
I can only dream for now, what a great power source! 😊
Ure its nice but seems behind alot of other brands such as bluetti,ecoflow and others that even have gps so if stilen can be found dont beleave there using the newest battery chemistry either. . They sponser you thou so i gst why you support them
Just wondering if they have longer connection cables so you can have the extra battery packs in the garage under the bed and the inverter up front?
How long would it run a standard sized rooftop air conditioner in a sprinter van? Also, can you charge this from your alternator? Thanks
How many watts does your AC use (low/med/high)? That will tell you how long it will run.

that cable for the expansion pack is bulky like id have to pull it outside my van every time I needed to use it
Chrome you are inspiring to me ..like the way you keep it real..😊
Emily needs one so she can use a saw
I saw that yesterday.
Emily who lol
@@gpelzer4240 The Cat Lady Van.
@@suzyolson9494 I know I was being funny being that her and chrome are no longer a couple
@@gpelzer4240 Oh lol
Thanks Chrome, I purchased one of the 700 Plus with the Black Friday sales. Could not be happier!
Ecoflow beat you to i! Better product, better design. Sorry, still love you Crome!
Portable and expandable power stations. It's the future. Are they available in the UK?
The cables are crazy to me but not only that, for me the top battery needs to click in the bottom its crazy it just sits on the top of the main to me
I just saw the chord 😮 I see what you mean
You would be a great teacher 😊
Great stuff for longevity roughness, is worth it 🧔
Hey chrome whats up, I have a question ? If using this jackory as a back up system only . How long will it hold a full charge before use.
This is a great development but do they work with the original Explorer 1000?
That's pretty cool. You sold their store out...that's what I get for being asleep when you posted the video LOL
Welcome to the Chrome Show 😂. Great job Brother ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Best. To You & Cruzzie
Always selling something
Hey chrome That is a awesome setup now you can cook and not have a camp stove or a campfire to Cook your delicious meals.
Awesome info Chrome. Your a 🌟😊
That’s so cool ! Thanks for sharing 😊
But how much do it cost Sometimes I think you forget where you come from😊
I just got my first Jackery -- 290. You said it was really good. I am in a house and just want power from the sun since I'm an old hippie who needs to do this before I die. I'm afraid to open the box! What if I mess it up somehow?

Forgot to say that I am getting slow on the uptake of learning new tech. Eesh...
The one he has seems durable, with all his backloading.
I think the hard part is knowing which plug goes where, but this thing is just a box of outlets and the chords to plug into it 😅
Don't worry, it's a plug n play. I have the 240 and if I can do it, trust me so can you!! Break it out, charge it up and off you go!
That's what the 1 & 2 are for on your dash for driving!!! 😅😅
1st gear, 2nd gear then drive.... 😂😂😂😂😉💕

It’s cool but that cord sticks out way far and would get in the way in a van
Chrome show us where you’re going to cram that into your van? With the stacked battery with that massive cord sticking out the back!
Your descriptions are very clear and easy to follow~
Can more than two 200 watt solar panels be hooked up?
Wow that's so amazing very well done

I'm new to your channel. I haven't received any new podcasts in 3 days. What do I do?
Great review Chrome xx
Thats pretty cool. Too bad they couldnt do that with the other ones. 😊 they woudnt need other off grid batteries.😊
@vancityvanlife I love watching your videos chrome
Thanks for the excellent review! 🤩

I wish there were covers for the plus inside so it is safe from dirt. When plugged into solar panels or extra battery pack.?¿ Miles & Karen 🐶
For years I swear by my Jackerys. Fast charging is awesome on my latest 2k Pro.
So this can only be used with their brand solar panels only? It would be great with roof solar.
On the website, it shows the 1000+2 comes with a solar power battery. For 899. Is that right? Please let me know. Thank you, Ron.
Crome when are you going to show the kick sound system in the ambo im looking i like the joying head unit lost after that
I just checked amazon no longer in stock and don't have an idea if or when they will be back in stock
So let’s say you do not want to wire up a van can you put solar on roof and hook up to these? Plug in items as needed or fridge.
I do that with my bluetti...its spliced to charge my batteries and my bluetti.
I wish the cord that connects the expansion packs wasn’t so big
how do you charge the extra battery? Does it charge when you are charging the main unit?
How much space do u need to tuck it away in a van and not be in the way or an eye sore?
I have never needed? Extra battery power out camping. However I'm getting into RV life.

Solar or plug into a hookup overnight to charge.
Generator will help charge.
I have the 3000 PRO
It would be great if this company donated one to homeless shelters or Red Cross for every one purchased. Just an idea.
Donate one for every one purchased??? They wouldn't be in business for very long. Are you donating $1 for every $1 you earn? I bet not.

Yes, but won't be nowhere near as fast as the wall adapter.
Emi needs one like yesterday 😅
For power tools 😅
Crome truth. I have x 240 and 2x 300. This will be my next
How many house batteries do you and how many ah's are they?
If this is 1000 watts, how does 4 200 watt solar panels charge it up from 0-100 in two hours?
It's 1000 watt-hours not 1000 watts. Not the same thing.

Can you actually plug a cigarette lighter into it?

Awesome video! Will you be doing one on the 300 pro soon?

Awesome I will be buying one for sure! Thank you, love all your videos!
@Leewilly440 I thought they still have those big power bricks to charge them on the power supply I do not like that
I need an ADBLOCKER !

The cord doubles the footprint...terrible design.
Output/input needs to be nested in the top & bottom of the units so setting the battery on makes the connection directly - no cord needed.
And they seem to be very light and mostly empty plastic. should have a lot more weight / power density for the space it takes.
