Whether you’re dealing with regular power cuts or you enjoy going camping while having some of the creature comforts of home, having a good solar power station can make a big difference. On the bright side, there are a ton of options out there for pretty much any need, and while it might feel a little bit overwhelming at first glance, it’s actually not that bad. In fact, we’ve looked around and picked some of our favorite solar power stations for various needs by drawing on our own experiences in tech and commerce to make sure you get the bast bang for your buck.
Jackery makes some of the most well-known and recognizable solar power generators, so it’s no surprise that theJackery Explorer 1000 made the top of our list. It has a lot of things that make it a solidly balanced option for many, from the capacity it has to the price tag it comes with. The 1000-watt capacity it can manage is quite a lot, and it can charge most things you can think of except, potentially, something like a microwave or a space heater that can go well over 1,000 watts. Even so, it can power a wide range of devices which is always a good thing.
As for capacity, you get 1,002Wh out of it, although in practical usage, it’s only 85% of that capacity, which is pretty standard since most brands cap it at around that amount of capacity, which does help a bit with longevity. Either way that still gives you around 851Wh to play with, which means a 100-watt device can run for eight and a half hours before the Jackery loses charge. Oh, and the best part is that it has pass-through charging, so you can absolutely charge the Explorer 1000 while using it, turning it into a UPS of sorts.
When it comes to charging, you have several options, such as charging through a wall outlet with up to 1800-watts, which should take about three hours at that capacity. You can, of course, also charge with solar panels with a combined max input of 1600 watts, which will also see it charged, in an ideal situation, in about three to four hours. The bundle that we’re linking with the button below includes the DELTA Pro, as well as one 400-watt solar panel, so it will be slower, but there are a lot of bundled options at EcoFlow, so be sure to check them all out.
When it comes to wattage output, you’ll be happy to note that it can handle up to 3,000 watts, which means it can handle a very wide array of things you can power, including things like a fridge, a TV, and even an AC unit. That said, it would be a pretty big waste to do that, given it’s really meant for outdoor use, with the ability to handle temperatures as low as -4°F. Also, since cold temperatures heavily impact battery life, it has a smart system that decreases the amount of power drawn according to battery level to give you as much juice as you can get out of it.
As for ports, you have a ton of them, including two 18w USB-A, two 100w USB-C, four AC ports, a fifth port made for heavy-duty appliances, and a 12v car port. Charging is similarly versatile, and you can charge it fully from a wall outlet in about 2.4 hours, while solar charging, which can go as high as 1,200 watts, will do it in about three and a half hours. While the button below will send you to just the solar power station, there’s a great s to help get you going if you don’t already have any.
One of the most important aspects of any solar power station is how well it can interface and charge from various types of solar panels. In some cases, a solar power station might not be able to accept different types of solar panels or may be locked to its own brand’s solar panels through a proprietary connection. As such, we did our best to make picks that have at least some compatibility with various types of solar panels by using a solar charging controller that can handle any or most solar panels.
Another thing that we wanted to focus on is devices that have a reasonable charging time in ideal conditions, at least when it comes to how they are being used. The Yeti 1500X is at the very edge of that, but most of the options above can be charged within one day if you can charge them as fast as you can, whether it’s with several solar panels or a wall outlet. Some solar power stations can actually be charged with both solar and wall outlets, which obviously gives you some really fast charging.
Most people who are looking for a solar power station don’t want something that will just charge their phone once in a while and can, therefore, just grab a power bank. Rather, if you’re looking for a solar power station, then you want reliable electricity for long periods of time to power several devices, whether you’re going out camping or need backup power when electricity cuts. To that end, we did our best to aim for solar power stations that have considerable capacities, and even the budget option has several times the capacity of a power bank.
A similar thought applies to the wattage output of a solar power station since you’re likely going to be running things that require a lot of wattage. For example, a TV, a small blender, a fan, and a mini-fridge all need way more wattage than your average power bank can provide. Our picks above all have a relatively high wattage output, except the budget option, which does require a couple of compromises, although it is still more than enough to handle things like mini-fridges or 100w+ laptops.

Amazon just released two new smart displays -- the completely new Echo Show 21 and the updated Echo Show 15 (2nd Gen). Both are premium options for your home, offering powerful speakers, Full HD displays, and heaps of useful apps so you can stream videos or check your schedule. But which is the better option? The gigantic Echo Show 21, or the updated Echo Show 15 (2nd Gen)? Here''s a closer look at both to help you decide.Pricing and design
The Echo Show 21 is the biggest member of the Echo Show family, and it''s got the price tag to prove it. Clocking in at $400, it''s a hefty investment. Its design is pretty premium, however, and it can be either mounted on a wall or placed on a table with an adjustable stand (sold separately). The Echo Show 15 looks much the same, though it''s quite a bit smaller. But from a design standpoint, it''s essentially a shrunken version of the Echo Show 21. It too can be mounted on a wall or placed on a table with an optional adjustable stand. But at $300, it''s much easier on the wallet.
