Hmm, I didn't know that Watts and kWh are different in the U.S.
They aren't. But the voltage outputs are, and that may affect runtime and thus the kWh figures.

Jackery's turning into a dick joke with all this marketing wank...

Not an excuse but, I can't discount 'the need' for separating one's brand from the highly-saturated "Solar Generator" market. -just, everything about this PR rubs me the wrong way.

Watts are a measure of power, specifically amperage x voltage.

kWh is a measure of power delivery over a period of time, 1 kWh is 1000 watts of power in an hour.

This battery pack can deliver the equivalent of 24,000 watts per hour in output. that doesnt mean it actually holds 24000 watts of power however.

That is very true.

The posting is a lot of market speak.
Again. If you want real information about this type of equipment, go to Will Prowse on Youtube.
He's one of the few that I trust in his assessments of solar power equipment.

Yes
specifically amperage x voltage.
for example, amps * volts
but also, N*m/s, kg*m^2/s^3, and any other combination of units that represents energy use or collection
kWh is a measure of power delivery over a period of time, 1 kWh is 1000 watts of power in an hour.
No. kWh is a unit of energy, just like the Joule. (1 kWh = 3.6MJ)
It can be used in any situation to describe energy, but tends to be used in situations where power usage over a significant period of time (i.e. hours) is under discussion.
It is not restricted to discussing power usage over exactly one hour. 1kWh can just as easily describe 2000 watts used over 30min or 500 watts used over 2h.
This battery pack can deliver the equivalent of 24,000 watts per hour in output. that doesnt mean it actually holds 24000 watts of power however.
No, the opposite.
The product is advertised as having a capacity of 2-24kWh, meaning the batteries hold that much energy (in other words, up to 86.4MJ of energy).
The inverter can drain the battery to produce up to 6kW of mains (120/240V AC) power.
Thus, with the most expensive configuration, the device has a minimum runtime of 4 hours: 6kW * 4h = 24kWh. (Ignoring inefficiencies of the battery and inverter systems.)

I am not sure about the philosophical point of this device.

You go to nature relaxing and still bring all your electronics garbage with you... WHY??

Other than that... looks fine... only the stupid winter scene... you cannot really use it in cold.

And this is relevant to my point how exactly?

Thanks, I'm well aware. To be absolutely precise, W and kWh for that matter are universal. Runtime, however is dependant on the load and charge-discharge characteristics on the batteries. Their wording is lame.

I believe he missed the sardonic bit, but was trying to 'point out' that Watts and kWh are the same, no matter the mains voltage and typical ampacity for branch circuits.

Jackery was specific to mention "(US)", probably to imply testing done @ 110-125VAC @ 60hz.
The lack of specificity and intermixing of US and EU market(ing), lends me to believe that 'testing' was artificial, and possibly skewed.

Example: an inverter/phase-converter could've been used, and set to the absolute limit of 'US mains'.
(Not impossible that they're REALLY 'playing with words' and used US 208-250VAC @ 60Hz.)
Typically (at least in my limited experience), the higher the mains voltage, the more efficiently SMPS can operate. Which, would make one think they'd prefer to use EU-mains test results...


It's peculiar, to say the least.

No disagreement was just saying one possible way they could be using the spin-doctored terminology.

The wonders of marketing photos: the solar panels facing anywhere but the sun.
And don't forget to use the smart app to manage you power before leaving home. You're more likely to have bad or no internet access in a place where you'll need a generator.

The marketing speak does give way to real facts further down the press release. There is good details there.

Whoever does their marketing obviously doesn't know anything about the product itself and needs to be fired. As someone already pointed out, extreme environments are a no-go. The promo images appear to be more of a mockery of the product than anything else. They mention some "German Red Dot Award"... to me, that could mean "danger", and their website looks like it was designed by a noob working out of their garage... I wouldn't buy one of their units. If they can't get the most basic things right, it would cause me worry about other things such as product support/quality, customer service, etc. It might very well be a good + reliable product, but some of those images are nothing short of moronic( i.e. like who the f*** surrounds their camp like that with glass bulbs???). Are camp fires now deemed to be producing too much carbon & we are now being "encouraged" to sit around a generator in a makeshift Jackery summoning circle instead of a camp fire? We'll just have to start cooking marshmallows on a heater or small grill that of course plugs into the generator... :kookoo:

It looks fine to me. Lithium Phosphates are definitely the way to go - No fire hazard with them - I still can't believe Boeing didn't use this tech for the 787. Only thing I can think of was the patents were still locking it away when the 787 was being developed. They've expired now.

An actual spec sheet would've been nice though.
