Packaging and Content

Since the Jackery Solar Generator 1000 consists of three parts—the Jackery Explorer 1000 and two Solar Saga 100-watt panels—you will receive the battery pack in its own box with the panels double-packed into one cardboard box for a total of two shipping boxes. What you see above are the solar panels in their individual packs. Besides the branding, there is very little additional information on these with the exception of some general specifications. While Jackery is based in the San Francisco area, their products are manufactured in China, just like most similar products out there.

Jackery Explorer 1000

The Jackery Explorer 1000 ships in a full-color cardboard box with a handle. Considering it weighs well over 20 lbs, the handle seems sturdy enough. On the front is an image of the unit itself, while the rear goes into details about the connectivity the power station provides. Both smaller sides sport some additional information about the solar panels and company.


When unfolding the top of the package, you are reminded of the first steps and how to get a hold of customer support if needed. The Jackery Explorer 1000 comes sandwiched by two black foam spacers to protect it during the shipping process.


A small black pouch holds the PSU for AC charging as well as a 24 V car charging cable to optionally use your automotive cigarette lighter for charging. The power supply is made by HuntKey, a brand PC enthusiasts should be familiar with, and rated for up to 180 W.


You will also receive a solar panel splitter adapter in a brown cardboard box, which allows you to connect the two SolarSaga panels to the Jackery Explorer 1000 simultaneously.


Lastly, there is a full-color manual inside the box as well.

Jackery SolarSaga 100 Watt

Unboxing of the SolarSaga 100 panels is less noteworthy as these ship in bubble wrap bags and simply include a manual.
