Package 1*Jackery Explorer 500 Portable Power Station (518Wh Portable Power Station) 1*AC Adapter 1* Car Charger Cable SPECIFICATIONS Review: Simple, effective, works well with Jackery solar panels...wish I'd gone for the 1000W! - I did a lot of homework before investing in the Jackery 500W. After reading many reviews of both Jackery and its main competitors, I opted for what I felt was the most reliable, most sturdy and most simple to use for a non-techie like me. It really is very straightforward with a minimum of buttons to confuse you and very clear instructions. Having watched some of the video reviews, it took no time at all to plug everything in and start charging up electronic devices. It arrived more than fifty per cent charged so I was able to do this without a problem and I was surprised by how quickly my devices charged and how little stored power they consumed. I know next to nothing about electrics but my understanding is that you can run pretty much anything electronic from the Jackery provided it doesn't draw more than 500W so that rules out larger appliances, domestic kettles, heaters etc. For those, you'd need a larger energy pack. I did agonise about whether to go for the bigger Jackery but decided that something that would charge phones, laptops, tablets etc was adequate for my needs. It comes with three USB (A) sockets, a 12v plug socket and a standard UK three pin socket - more than enough for my needs. You can also plug a USB device directly into the solar panel for charging. It doesn't however come with USB (C) sockets so an adaptor is required (or a mains plug) for such use. The simple display panel shows the wattage coming in during charge and the wattage going out to devices. The real gain for me was being able to match up the Jackery solar panel which again is so simple to use, my small grandson could work it out. There's something very satisfying being able to charge a device up using the power of the sun - albeit one tiny appliance! All very relevant now too with the COP summit underway (At time of writing). I daresay this will very quickly become outdated as the technology (and battery power) develops but it's a start and the costs are coming down quickly. I daresay I'll be shopping for the Jackery 500's big brother very soon! Review: Know your power output ! - Great product however we should have gone for the higher spec , this one struggles to run hairdryer or kettle, not their fault we just went for the smaller Jack bit by mistake, it will run a Cpap machine all night which really was our main reason to purchase a Jackery so excellent for this - anything above this you have to go bigger. Absolutely spot on brand we will probably be getting another one higher output. ## Features - WHO IS JACKERY: Founded in 2012, Jackery specializes in providing outdoor green power solutions for explorers.

It will be slightly less due to losses through the inverter. I ran a 500W load until dead and it shut down at circa 56 minutes. Load was a fan heater. **Q: Hi i have a product which produces 180 watts how long can the jackery 500 power it on for?** A: As this unit has 518Wh capacity if you divide that by 180W you get 2.87 hours. If it is an AC180 Watts then you will have some losses through the inverter so it will be a little less (circa 5% ish). **Q: Would i be able to connect this to existing solar chage controller which is running my boats 12v system.** A: Yes as long as the connection in the same **Q: Will this run a 500w heater? or does it need to be under 500w meaning 499w or less?** A: I would say that the Jackery would be operating right on its limit. As with a heater then it would be in operation for some time. So for me l wouldn’t run it. I understand the Jackery is rated for 500watts and a 1000watts peak, but l personally would use a lower wattage heater, 250watts or similar. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, effective, works well with Jackery solar panels...wish I'd gone for the 1000W! *by R***G on 2 November 2021* I did a lot of homework before investing in the Jackery 500W.

We mainly run our expedition fridge off it. Able to charge from cigarette lighter as we are driving and when fully charged - can run the fridge for a couple of days on average (depending on ambient temperature ) We use it in place of expensive electric modifications to our vehicle. Of course is fully transferable between vehicles and we use it for charging e-bikes out in the garage where there is no power supply (note though it won’t fully charge the battery). ## Frequently Bought Together - Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 500, 518Wh Outdoor Backup Mobile Lithium Battery Pack with 230V/500W AC Outlet for holiday RV Camping, Outdoor Adventure, Emergency - Jackery SolarSaga 100W Portable Solar Panel for Explorer 240/500/1000 Power Station, Foldable Monocrystalline Solar Cell Solar Charger with USB Outputs for Phones Off-Grid Home - Trunab Travel Carrying Bag Compatible with Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 500, Storage Case with Waterproof Bottom and Front Pockets for Charging Cable and Accessories --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/293646361-jackery-explorer-500-portable-power-station-518wh-compact-backup-power](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/293646361-jackery-explorer-500-portable-power-station-518wh-compact-backup-power) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
