Portable power stations are useful in a lot of different situations, from power outages to camping off-grid. But they can also be pricey, which is why jumping on power station deals when they come around is ideal.
The Jackery Explorer 2000 v2 portable power station is back on sale, saving you a massive $800. That steep discount drops it back down to its lowest price on record. But a deal this good on such a handy device won’t last long. If you want to pick this power station up while it’s 53% off, you’ll need to be quick.
The Explorer 2000 v2 is a portable power station similar to the Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus, one of our favorites. It’s a smaller, lighter version with the same 2,042.8Wh capacity, but the 2000 v2 can’t be expanded, unlike its bigger cousin. The device sports a 4,400-watt peak power output (compared to 6,000 watts for the 2000 Plus), and you’ll get a handy, foldable carry handle for easier transportation.

As far as ports are concerned, you can rely on three AC outlets, as well as multiple USB-C ports. There’s a useful USB-A port for those older devices, too. You can even manage the whole thing remotely using a phone app.

Why this deal matters
Being prepared is important. Unpredictable weather and other natural disasters are one reason to pick up a portable power station like the Jackery Explorer 2000 v2. Fun endeavors, like camping and traveling, make it a must-have accessory.
This is the lowest price we’ve ever seen for this power station. At an $800 discount, it’s a hard deal to beat. We saw this price drop during Prime Big Deal Days and this is an excellent second chance if you missed out then. We likely won’t see a deal like this again until Black Friday, so it’s certainly worth considering if you were looking for a deal on backup power. Many areas of the country are heading into the storm or wildfire season, so now is a good time to prepare for power outages while saving big.
