It's camping season, y'all. And right alongside it: tornado and hurricane season. In other words, it's a good time to grab a source of backup power. You don't necessarily need to spend a fortune on a generator, either. This Jackery Explorer 1000 V2 portable power station can keep you connected and power multiple appliances without breaking the bank — especially since it's on sale.

As of May 8, you can grab the Jackery Explorer 1000 V2 portable power station for $448.99 instead of $799 at Amazon. That's 44% in savings and — brace yourselves— one cent cheaper than it was a few weeks ago. Every cent counts in this economy.

Thanks to a 1,500W AC output and a 3,000W surge peak, the Explorer 1000 V2 is capable of powering multiple appliances, including AC units, fridges, and coffee makers — not to mention your phone and laptop. It features two USB-C ports, one USB-A port, one DC car port, three pure sine wave AC ports, LED lights, and a 1,070Wh capacity. And when you activate emergency charging mode via the Jackery app, the power station itself will charge from zero to 100 percent battery in just an hour.
