Style: Portable Power Station 240
I bought this item 12/2/2019 and I really wanted to write a review even though I haven’t fully tested it yet. I will update this review once I do all the other things I want it to do. But for now here we go. I bought the Jackery 240 because we lost power for several days in NJ. I was tired of waiting for my husband to fix our broken gas generator. I wanted a rechargeable generator that can 12 volt appliances like little cooking thing or a low powered heater. I boiled eggs/heated food with a sterno cooking thing. It worked but I wanted other alternatives. I know there is a lot of other alternatives for cooking (like propane stuff, wood stove etc) and heat (I used Hot Hands all sizes) and the hubby has all these equipment. But I think he is saving all his equipment for the ultimate doomsday 0_0 and I’d have to ask permission to use them. So I’m like to heck with this I’m going to get my own stuff – something not too exorbitant and not a repeat of equipment he already has. I am supposed to be the helpless female (LOL) but I guess when you have kids (or when you’re tired of waiting to be rescued) you gonna help yourself. Ok that’s my lifestory don’t downgrade my review its down below LOLLL I have the Honeywell HeatBud 250 Watt Personal Ceramic Heater, Black (HCE100). This heater has a low setting – 170 watts and high setting 250 watts. I tested it on both settings and it works! Of course it would be silly of me to use it just for that purpose. As a previous reviewer said, the heater sucked the power off the Jackery and I think it ran between 60-90 minutes. I don’t remember because I was watching TV and then then it just turned off LOL. The Jackery didn’t give me any warning that it was low battery. I also charged other items on the Jackery for 10 minutes before I tested the Honeywell which Im sure drained it a bit but I’m pretty sure it was at least 60 minutes or more before the Jackery was empty. I don’t think I’ll be using the Jackery for heating purposes as that would be such a waste of power. Guess it’ll still be the Hot Hands scenario for heat! But it’s nice to see that the Jackery can power the Honeywell Heatbud heater. So if someone’s hands is close to frostbite I can power on my Honeywell for 90 mins of heat. I also tested a smaller Lasko heater (which I returned actually). The Lasko heater was advertised as 200 watts. It was totally brand new and on first use it was using 240 watts + and the Lasko kept turning on and off. That went on for about 5-10 mins. Then the Lasko began to stabilize and pulling a regular 200watts+ from the Jackery and stayed on. So my assumption was that at first use/brand new the Lasko was trying to heat itself up (??) My Honeywell Heatbud didn’t do that but then again the Honeywell Heatbud was not brand new. But anyway, I’m not too pleased with the Lasko especially as it doesn’t have the tip-over safety feature and lower heat settings. So if I *had* to use a heater with the Jackery it would be the Honeywell Heatbud. I bought a mini hotpot from Amazon that has two power settings 200 watt and 600 watt. I will update my review once I use it either tonight or over the weekend. I am curious to see if the 200 watt setting will work on the Jackery and how long it takes to boil water at the lower setting. I have a review for the mini hotpot somewhere in case you’re curious. But my plan is to use the mini hotpot to boil eggs/heat soups/coffee/chocolate milk for the family faster than the sterno stove (during power outages) and when we go on sporting events several days in a hotel – things like that. The next major test I did (which I would definitely be using the Jackery more this way than any other) was plugging in my Wagan Thermoelectric Cooler/Warmer in the DC outlet – cigarette lighter) My sons had a swim meet competition and we always have hot food cooked. I would use the Wagan to keep it warm for them. In the past I would power the Wagan with my Honda CR-V cigarette lighter. But whenever I turn my car off it cuts the power to the Wagan. Also, there is a warning that in order to avoid the Wagan from malfunctioning I must power off the Wagan then shut my car AND/OR plug the Wagan to the car before powering it on. So with the Jackery 240 I don’t need to worry about any of that! So at 100% I plugged in my Wagan and powered on the Jackery and the Wagan respectively about 730AM in the morning with my 3 already hot spaghetti inside. I never turned off the Wagan or the Jackery. About 5 hours or so later I checked on the Jackery and it was about 40% power remaining! Cool! Since using an electric cooler (and soon my Alpicool compressor fridge/freezer) is mostly what I’ll be using the Jackery for (as well as the mini hotpot if it works) – and the minor charging of other electronics I’d leave this review here for now. My husband uses a CPAP machine – Resmed Airsense 10. I read in the reviews that the Jackery can power this machine so that is cool. Although my husband says he can live without the CPAP since power outages (or vacations somewhere is temporary) I am unable to test this for myself. Since he gets mad if I nag him I won’t bother convincing him. But it’s good know that if need be the Jackery can power his CPAP machine if he ever decides to use it. In summary below are what I like, dislike, the items I used it for/tested with, final thoughts until my next update with other things I want to test it with. What I like: 1. Seems durable and high quality - doesn’t look and feel like it will break easily 2. Light and portable – carrying it around is no biggie for 5ft me 3. 12V DC outlet works (I heard that it gives the max power even when battery is low) it worked well with my 12volt thermo electric cooler 4. You can power and charge the machine at the same time (haven’t check this yet) 5. Bought it at the lower price during an Amazon Lightning Deal (yay!) What I dislike: 1. Wish it had a USB-C outlet (that’s what my tablet and phone use) 2. Slow charging – in the AC outlet I saw it pulls in 39 watts Final Thoughts: This is my first “solar” generator. But I did research a lot - or should I say Amazon reviews and Youtube research LOL. Jackery seemed to come up as being reliable and not too expensive like Goalzero. Maybe just maybe if I did the whole off grid living and conversion van life I would get Goalzero 1000 as well but I’m not. And I don’t want to throw my money away. The consensus seems that Jackery is a solid brand and worth it. I plan to keep my Jackery 240 in my car as I drive 64 miles one way to work. I like the Jackery 240 so much that I may just buy the 500 watt version if it goes on sale again. It’s back to $500 right now. But anyway, I’m still researching and maybe I’m getting carried away. But I want the ability to higher wattage appliances and/or charge a lot more. I like the previous reviewers advice of having two of these. Since they recharge slowly one can be used while the other is recharging – perfect! But $$$. I usually like to get two powerful items. But the 240 is only 6 lbs while the 500 is 13 lbs. So I think it’s a wise decision for me to have a Jackery 240 and Jackery 500. Now if they come out with a Jackery 1000 I might get that instead. Jackery are you coming out with a 1000??? I recently purchased a Rockpals 100 watt folding solar panel which should be delivered today. (Yep I’m getting carried away!!!) I want to be able to charge my Jackery 240 while I’m at lunch by putting it on the roof of my car. I did not get the Jackery branded solar panels because it was too expensive for me. The Jackery 60 watt panel – though it went on sale – can only charge the Jackery alone. The Jackery 100 watt panel - which I REALLY liked and wanted to get since it can power other things as well - was $299! Since I plan to buy another Jackery (either 500 or 1000 if they make it in the future) I need to purchase wisely. Appliances I tested with: 1. Honeywell Heatbud 2. Honeywell Desktop Air Purifier 3. Wagan Thermoelectric Warmer/Cooler (using 12v, didn’t try the AC plug) 4. Android Tablets & Phones 5. Rav Battery Bank 6. Rechargeable Flashlights & Lamps Appliances I will test with soon: 1. Coolio Thermoelectric Warmer/Cooler 2. Alpicool C20 Fridge & Freezer 3. Rockpals 100 Watt Folding Solar Panel 4. Acer Chromebook 5. Dell Laptop 6. Modem & Router ... show more

Review Image by Mr. Bruce Mr. Bruce
To replace my old lead-acid battery powered inverter (bought in 2003), whose battery finally died, I bought the Jackery 240. This review may be slightly more technical than most, as I am an electrical engineer, with experience in product testing. I am a member of the ARRL ARES organization (Amateur Radio Emergency Services), as well as RACES (Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service). These organizations are affiliated with our county Emergency Operations Center. Every year we conduct several drills (exercises) to test equipment, processes, people’s training, and general readiness to tackle a real disaster. I will describe two such drills, in which the Jackery was used, and performed flawlessly. The Jackery was purchased in June, 2019, and was used in an exercise witnessed by our state disaster personnel in July, and again at a second exercise conducted in August, 2019, this time observed and critiqued by FEMA. The Jackery was used as the 115 VAC power source for a 12 volt DC power supply, which powered a Kenwood 50 Watt mobile Amateur radio (used in VHF band). Both drills were a county-wide field exercise with multiple sites involved. I was assigned to a location where people could be evacuated to, in the event of a real disaster. I had to be capable of maintaining communications from this site for many hours, and I did not want to deplete the car battery to provide 12 Volts to the Kenwood transmitter. I also did not want to leave the car idling for several hours during the drill. The Jackery was a perfect fit for this, as it was able to supply a stable 115 Volt AC source to the 12 volt power supply, it had enough capacity to run my transceiver all day, and could be recharged by the car during usage, so I could run the car only enough to recharge the Jackery when it reached about 65% (my choice of recharge point). As the Jackery could be charged during use (my old lead-acid based inverter could not), and displayed its remaining capacity, and also showed watt usage, I could keep close track on its performance, and make a decision when I wanted to start the car to recharge it. I was also able to use it to keep my cell phone charged as well. The photo I attached to this review shows the Jackery sitting on the floor of the car on the passenger side of the vehicle, connected to the car’s 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket, and with a second connector to my cell phone. I used a separate 12 volt power supply (not the 12 volts supplied by the Jackery), as the Kenwood transceiver required 13 Amps at 12 volts, and the Jackery will only supply 10 Amps at 12 volts. Instead the Jackery supplied 115 VAC at 13 watts to receive, and at 170 watts to transmit from the Kenwood mobile rig, using the big 12 volt power supply (shown just next to the Jackery in the photograph). The Jackery was monitored with a Fluke voltmeter to verify its output, a true RMS wattmeter to verify its watt output display, and my 12 volt supply was monitored as well both during receive (low load), and during transmit (very high load, pulling 170 watts from the Jackery). In all cases, the Jackery 240 provided accurate readouts on its display, provided stable power up to its specifications, and could be charged with the 12 volts from the car while supplying 115 VAC to my external 12 Volt supply without interruption. The Jackery unit provided fine performance during the two drills, and kept my cell phone charged during the entire drill. It is light to carry (those internal lithium ion batteries are a whole lot lighter than a big lead-acid battery). It appears to be reliable, and simple to use. I can wholeheartedly recommend it. ... show more

So Jackery makes a whole line of portable power systems, and this is one of the smaller units. It works very well and I like that it has a full sine wave inverter in it which means even finicky electronics work well. Now it is light on ports only having one AC outlet with a max of 200 watts power with a 400 watt surge, 2 USB A type ports, and a 12 volt car port, it does not come with a USB-C port. I have tried all the ports including the car charger port and all work very well. Only complaint I have is there is no cover for the car port so there is a gaping hole in the front for dust and dirt to get into Now it only has one DC input port and it is a proprietary 8mm barrel connector. Now most solar panels out there do carry a connector that will fit and charge this unit. I have a 100 watt panel I use and it came with the adapter. Speaking of Solar charging I did notice this unit the 240S model does not seem to limit you to about 40 watts of input power instead I was at one point getting 79 watts input from my 100 watt solar panel. Jackery does confirm that they upgraded the newer models to support up to 80 watts of input power. So for those of you that had older versions and only had the 60 watt panels because well it only allows 40 watts anyway....time to get new panels, and no, this does not come with a solar panel so you will need to buy that as a separate purchase. One other thing I do love that the display shows how much power is coming in and how much is going out it even computes the approximate hours till the battery is depleted at the current output rate. This is also handy when using solar to charge it, it allows you to see how much power the panels are providing and it help you to angle them for the best charging. Overall I would buy another Jackery product, I think for my use, however I would buy a larger more powerful one next time. ... show more
