Review of the Jackery Explorer 1000

This is my review of the Jackery Explorer 1000. It's different because I'm not discussing what it can and cannot do, because that's been covered already in other review videos. Instead, I want to talk about the cost of the Jackery and compare it to having a solar system installed on your RV, be it a camp trailer, van or other. It seems expensive, but is it cost effective?

For a technical review of this product I recommend the video done by Hobotech: https://youtu.be/HieBU0Uztec
