That's where the Jackery Explorer 1000 comes in: This HuffPicks Award winner has three AC outlets, two USB-C ports, one USB-A port, one DC car port and LED lights to meet all your power and charging needs in an emergency. With a lifespan of over 10 years, smart app control to easily switch between charging modes and a compact design that's easy to store in your trunk or basement, this can make a huge difference during a power outage or other emergency to keep your devices -- and your car battery -- charged. Get it for 10% off.
Promising review: "I bought this with the intention of CPAP backup. Less than a week after receiving this product, an overnight thunder storm knocked out 2 transformers in town and we lost power for about 3-4 hours before crews could make repairs. I slept right through the entire deal and wondered why the microwave clock was flashing in the morning.
This product works exactly as designed and is an absolute blessing! If you've ever been woken up by your CPAP losing power you know how rude of a wake up that is.... avoiding that just one time makes the price worth it to me! Do yourself a favor and get a power station." -- BigD
