Perfect during power loss during hurricanes
This Jackery is a life saver ! We do live in Hurricane land and this baby has saved us lots of money ! We used it for 2 big deep freezers , 2 fridges and some lights during a long power loss during a hurricane . Actually , we have 5 of them ! 2 baby ones , 2 large and 1 extra large one . We are feeling safe during a powerloss . Yes , they are heavy , but still easy to store. We use our Jackery's also for our tent caming and always have one in the car with us when going places , we do recommend it ! Just si sad , that my son in Spain can not have them , as they are not been sold there

Charged quickly, ran refrigerator for 27 plus hours without recharging.
Received the Jackery Solar Generator 3000 PRO with two 200W Solar Panels. The unit was delivered via FedEx on time. However, the delivery was supposed to require a signature, the driver dropped the unit in my driveway and left without obtaining signature. I was home at the time of delivery and driver did not knock, so be aware that the signature required stipulation does not seem to be observed by FedEx drivers. I have noticed other reviewers have complained of the same problem. The packaging clearly shows it contains a solar generator so anyone happening by will know what it is.I was able to easily install the Jackery App on my iPhone. The app is clear and easy to use. The unit was charged to about 30% when I turned it on shortly after unboxing it. I didn't time exactly how long it took to the charge the unit to 100% but it was under 2 hours in fast charging mode. As a test I plugged my 25 cubic foot side-by-side refrigerator with ice maker into the 100% charged Jackery 3000 Pro. Using the phone app I set the battery setting to "Full Use" and energy saving mode to "Never." "Full Use" battery mode means the unit will charge the batteries to 100% and drain the batteries to zero. There is a "Battery Saving" mode that sets charging limit to 85% and discharge limit to 15% which will extend the lifespan of the batteries. For this test I wanted to see how long the unit would run the refrigerator using maximum battery capacity. The ambient temperature in the room was 68 degrees and the refrigerator was opened and closed occasionally during normal daily use. The Jackery 3000 Pro ran the refrigerator for 27.5 hours and there was 5% charge remaining when I ended the test. Assuming the last 5% charge would run the refrigerator as long as the first 5% it should have run the refrigerator for about another 1.3 hours for a total refrigerator run time of 28.8 hours.I have not used the 3000 Pro with the Solar Saga 200W solar panels yet, so can't comment on how well they work. Also, one thing to be aware of about the 3000 Pro is that it is not compatible with Jackery add-on expansion battery packs, so the 3000 Pro can't be expanded beyond its 3024WH capacity.So far, I'm happy with the unit, I got it primarily for running the refrigerator during power outages and plan to recharge it via solar panels or gasoline powered generator as situation requires.

A real blessing after Hurricane Helene
This thing is great. We can run the refrigerator, a small chest freezer and several room circuits (including those for microwave and coffee maker) for at least 12 hours straight. Can be used indoors, so by alternating with a small outdoor gas/propane generator, we were able to continuously keep food cold and frozen for the couple weeks it took for our power to be restored after Hurricane Helene. Recharges in just a couple hours either with the generator or from a 120V circuit. Haven't really tried the solar panels.

I mostly love this product, but with some caveats
I bought mine directly from Jackery. The first one that arrived would be charging and then just shut off randomly. I'd have to unplug the solar panels, replug them in, and sometimes it would start charging again and sometimes not. I thought the unit was defective (and it may have been), so I exchanged it for another one. I live at the beach where it's overcast a lot. When I try to charge on overcast days, I get very little output from the panels, which isn't too surprising, but there's a major design flaw related to that. Jackery likes to point out that their solar panels are a few percent more efficient than the competition, yet what I've discovered is that if the panels are putting out less than around 20W of power, the Jackery unit just shuts off, as if the reasoning was, "It's just 20W, why bother?" For those of us who don't live in sunny places, this is a big deal. Why strive to get just a few percent more efficient in your panels than the competition and then throw away 20W of power? That doesn't make any sense to me.The other thing I dislike about this product is the price. If you compare the cost of those SolarSaga 200 panels to similar no-name panels on Amazon, you'll see the SolarSaga 200's cost more than twice what very similar products from no-name competitors cost. Perhaps you get what you pay for, but 2x cost difference is huge. The panels retail for $699 for ONE PANEL! Jackery puts them on sale for $200 off, but that's still 2x the competition.You can have a total of up to 6 panels in your system, but to do that, you have to buy two three-way splitters so that you can plug in 3 panels per side, and those small three-way splitters are $75 each! So to expand beyond the two panels that come with it, you'll need to spend 2 x $75 = $150 more, plus the cost of the additional panels. Similarly, if you're going to want longer cables between the panels and the base unit than come with it, they charge something like $50 each for those cables.So if you want to invest in this system, be prepared to keep shelling out top dollar for any accessory or add-on if you get it from Jackery.Alright, enough with the negative aspects. What do I like about this system? A lot. When the sun was shining, the battery unit charged up pretty quickly.You can draw 3,000 Watts from this thing continuously and up to 6,000 Watts peak. So you can run two 1,500 Watt blow dryers (don't know why you'd want to) at once from it. Try that on a single circuit at home and you'll likely trip a breaker.It's got 3,000 Watt/hours of power storage. So that means you could run two blow dryers at the same time for an hour with a full charge. Again, not sure why'd you'd want to, but blow dryers are something that everyone is familiar with and we've all tripped a breaker using them at home, so I use them as examples of something you're familiar with that draws a lot of power.I have a 4.3 cubic foot refrigerator that has a low power consumption rate and the fully charged Jackery will power that refrigerator for ~36 hours. So if you were camping or in an emergency situation, you could have a small-medium refrigerator and freezer running 24/7 with power to spare if you charge the Jackery to full charge during the day.Jackery has a free app that allows you to connect with your unit remotely via WiFi from anywhere or via BlueTooth if you're out of WiFi range. The app is great, as you can see exactly what you'll see on the front panel of the base unit, which is a very intuitive display that does a lot of math for you. For example, it displays what percentage of a full charge the battery pack has at the moment. If you've got your solar panels hooked up, it will also show you how many Watts are coming in and how long it will take to achieve a full charge at the current rate of charging.There are three ways of charging the unit up:1) Off wall current (which is fast, but pick a circuit on your house that doesn't have any major appliances running on it or else you might trip your circuit breaker; this thing really sucks the juice and charges fast).2) Off the solar panels3) Via a 12V cigarette lighter adapter for your carI like the convenience of these three options.As far as power output, there are many options on the base unit:1) There are four A/C plugs for plugging in anything you'd normally plug into your wall outlet inside the house2) There is another A/C plug for high power devices like an electric clothes dryer3) There is a cigarette lighter port for plugging in things that you would plug into the cigarette lighter of your car4) There are two USB A ports (the ones most older electronics use for charging phones, tablets, etc.)5) There are two USB C ports (the new, smaller ports that modern electronics use for charging)When you're drawing power from any of these ports, the amount of time remaining before you exhaust all of the energy stored in the Jackery will be displayed and, like all of the stats it displays, they're updated in real-time.All of this is displayed via the app as well. The app is great for setting up your unit charging, and then you can go off and do other things and use the app to check in on the charging to see how much longer until it's done, without having to physically go to the unit to look. Similarly, you can be drawing power off the Jackery to power things and remotely (via the app) see how much power is left and how much time at the current draw rate before you run out of juice.Overall, this is a very well designed product. I'd call it the Cadillac of portable solar power stations. My only complaints are:1) Why do they brag about the slight percentage advantage in panel efficiency they have over their competitors and then throw away a trickle charge (<20 Watts) that they could/should be using?2) Why is everything about this product SO ridiculously expensive compared to competitive products? Again, maybe you get what you pay for, but the price difference is pretty severe.Overall, I do recommend this product if you live in a sunny location and have a lot of money to spend on a really nice system.
