Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus Portable Power Station, 3600W AC Output, 3584Wh LFP Solar Generator, Expandable up to 21kWh, Essential Home Backup for Home Use, Emergencies, RV (Solar Panel Optional)

This is the 4th Jackery solar generator I own in various sizes. The smallest (240 watts) sits in the basket of my handicapped mobility scooter to power a rear camera, a street navigation device, charge my scooter battery, cellphone, etc. I also own a 1000 watt and a 2000 watt Jackery with solar panels. Living in the dry desert AZ where we experience summertime power outages during the monsoon season, these Jackery solar generators power my fridge, freezer, internet, TV, lights, oxygen concentrator, power recliners, power bed, power wheelchair, washing machine, kitchen appliances. I am very elderly and medically handicapped. I don't have a car. These solar generators are a life saver. They are great value and easy to maintain. I keep each charged by simply plugging 🔌 into a wall outlet. I do have the solar panels for each. Last summer I bought a camping tent air conditioner (which puts out really cold air) to use when electricity goes out. I also have 2 portable swamp coolers. With 115° plus temperatures for 3 months, my dogs and I have cooling zones for comfort as we needed over several days last summer. I am thrilled with this Jackery 3600 with its solar panels. It was beautifully boxed 📦 and very easy to cut away from the shipping box. Since it has its own hand truck built in, I just rolled it into my den and plugged it in for about 3 hours. As usual for Jackery, it was ready to be used. It's heavy but it has its built in hand truck so it's easy to move around. When emergencies happen, losing electricity can be horrendous if you aren't prepared with supplies you'll need including generators. I bought my baby Jackery solar generator about 4 years ago and absolutely love having it on my mobility scooter. The 3 other Jackery solar generators are marvelous products as well. I highly recommend Jackery solar generators. I have the solar panels as extra insurance if electricity is out for a long period of time. Jackery makes connecting these very easy. Jackery is quality! Very easy to use. I am 100% happy with my 4 Jackery solar generators and solar panels. This 3600 plus generator is going to be well used when electricity is out. Each generator easily charges my other Jackery generators but that's not advised particularly when electricity is gone for quite a while. The solar panels easily plug in and charge the units nicely. I keep these Jackery generators topped up & ready to use. Having lived along the Gulf coast for decades I well remember Katrina and many other hurricanes and tornadoes. Thankfully I don't have to find an open gas station for gallons of gas to run generators...the sun is free and it charges Jackery solar generators magnificently. I highly recommend Jackery solar generators.

I’ve been camping for years and have owned a few smaller power stations, but I eventually realized I needed something with more capacity. That’s why I went with the Jackery 3600 Plus, and wow — it absolutely delivers. It powers everything I need at camp, from lights and cooking gear to my mini fridge and Starlink. It’s made camping so much more comfortable and convenient. The charging speed is impressively fast, and for something this powerful, it’s surprisingly portable. The wheels and telescoping handle make it super easy to roll from the car to the tent or RV. The build quality feels solid and dependable。 Knowing I have reliable power not only for my outdoor adventures but also for emergencies at home gives me complete peace of mind. If you love spending time outdoors or just want a high-capacity, worry-free power solution, this one’s 100% worth it.

The Jackery 3600 has been amazing. It powers all my everyday devices without any problems. I upgraded to this model because I needed more capacity, and it definitely delivers. What really impressed me is how fast it recharges. Way quicker than I expected for something this powerful. Overall, an awesome product and totally worth it!

Very easy to set up and charge with the panels. Gives us more peace-of-mind during our next power outage! Love the capacity to run our fridge and other critical electronics. Very heavey but easy to pull on it's wheels, like carry-on luggage.

The Jackery 3600 Plus has completely changed the way I think about backup power. It easily keeps my household essentials going — refrigerator, coffee maker, microwave, Starlink, and even the dryer — without breaking a sweat. We recently had an outage, and it kept everything running seamlessly. Getting it started couldn’t have been easier: plug it in, hit the power button, and you’re good to go. For something with this much capacity, it’s surprisingly easy to move. The built-in wheels and pull handle make it roll around like luggage, which is super convenient. Recharging is fast too. What really stands out is the durability and flexibility. The battery system feels solid.

The tweak: PLEASE fix the app to notify me when solar charging falls below a number I specify, like 50W. That way we can tell of panels blew over, or the sun has "moved" behind a building. As is now, you have to keep checking if there's generation - although Bluetooth and WiFi are great, you still are required to frequently check. That should not be necessary. Please fix the app. Now the rest of the product review: everything seems as advertised, stout and high quality. The only drawback is proprietary connectors. Why? Why? If you use solar, you might start as I did with a pair of 200W to "learn the ropes". The Solar Sagas (included in my purchase) work as advertised. But a pair of 200W still take "forever" (at least 10 hours of nearly perfect sun) to charge 0 to 100% (though you might aim to use AC power to always stay in 70 to 85%). The point is that if you're fully dependent on solar (in woods, or power outage) you're highly likely to use up the 3000W (85% of 3600) real darn quickly (e.g. max of 2 hours of continuous room A/C use or 2 hours continuous 1500W heater, not counting refrigerator and other essentials). So you're going to need a ton of solar to even hope to keep up - and possibly will wish you had 3 of these, and many hundreds of watts of panels. Strong suggestion: aim for big 500W panels. The Jackery mechanism to "daisy chain" panels in series is stupidly expensive. Just get 2 big 500W panels and run 2 lines to the 2 D.C. inputs. (Tonto makes a more affordable extension cable BTW. If you keep the unit indoors, by a window, you are VERY likely going to want extension. $40 currently for a 5 M extension from Jackery.)
