When you're looking for a portable power station, you're usually forced to choose between a high-capacity model that's a pain to carry and a lightweight one that can't power much. Jackery has built its reputation on finding the sweet spot between those two extremes, and its popular Explorer 1000 v2 is a perfect example.

As of Sept. 15, the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 is just $448.98 at Amazon in a "lightning deal." (So, that means it won't last long!) That's a 44% discount and a $350 savings off its $799 list price.

The Explorer 1000 v2 is powerful enough for most adventures, with a 1070Wh capacity and a 1500W AC output (with a 3000W surge peak) that can run everything from refrigerators to electric pots. But unlike most generators with similar power, it's lightweight (23.8 pounds) and has a convenient foldable handle, making it a great grab-and-go option for camping or emergencies.

It's also packed with modern tech. You can use the Jackery app to enable an emergency charging mode that takes the battery from zero to 100 percent in just one hour. The app also lets you switch to a quiet charging mode for overnight use.
