The way I look at solar generation is it supplements the gas generators period. you run your gas generator for an hour ,charge the solar generator and use all the electricity you can plus the electricity extras then go use the solar panels as much as you can . That’s it .
Your intro description at opening is spot on. My RV solar to these new solar generators, they market that they run anything forever. Lucky power generation was in my background, i realize the industry big lie. so good eyeopener for your audience.
I like the little 2 stroke generators. I take chain saw any ways. My tech addicted teen would get good usw of it. I have power tools and somw companies make inverters for power tool batteries.
Utah Jeff ….here ….,I do totally agree with most of your video presentation…. Having used a power bank and solar panels this summer on 2 week vacation to Oregon for the first time. Overall it worked pretty well for me…. It is nice having lights etc. but the weather and surroundings does present some challenges. I have 2 – 100 watt panels and if you get 120-140 wats between 10 am – 2 pm in many cases that is as good as it gets …. that is summertime …If I were to do it again I probably would purchase a 1000 watt power station
Thank you for bringing this to surface. Solar Panels are not what most people expect them to be. It is somewhat of a pain in the backside to have to keep on re-positioning them for many hours at a time under ideal sunlight exposure. Then when you experience cloudy days the power output of the panels becomes very disappointing. Most times, if you want reliability, it's best to have the old tried and true loud gas generator.
Listening to this makes me happy that I built my own chonky 4.25kWh portable power pack. Just crazy how much these companies are charging for moderately large packs.
Hello there, I just purchased a Rockpals 300w solar generator. The manual says to completely discharge it before the first charge . That sounds wrong but states that clearly. I don’t want to damage it but I do want to treat it with optimum care. Is this information correct? Thanks in advance
Does anyone know what the maintenance on these are? What’s involved?
You were just in a bad spot I put my camper in the shade panels in the sunlight never a problem
👀👀👀 make a video about the finger

They are not generators, they are storage devices.
I just listened to 60 constant hours of a gas-run generator from a neighbor. I would love to have shot the damn thing.
You talk to much much
, you must be an engineer!!

My last camping/hunting trip it rained for 5 days. We camp central u.p. and temps really bring the bank down. Usually 9 day minimum trips.
Thanks for being real. So many focus on unrealistic expectations. Don’t understand why but I have some ideas. Kudos to you!

Rethink the fridge and forget it.
Love your videos!
Good info! Thank you
Honestly these power stations from Jackery are really quite expensive when compared to other power stations.
One thing to point out is that these power stations charge quite slow from the AC outlet aside from being quite expensive.
My Jackery Panel drops to zero watts within 15 minutes in the sun, Jackery won’t replace it without my purchase order ??? #BoycottJackery
Great video!
