You've probably heard of Jackery. It's one of the biggest names in portable power, and its distinctive black and orange units are becoming a familiar site on camspites, in workshops, and even in motorhomes and campervans.
I use a few of these brilliant gadgets while I'm travelling around, and they're so handy for powering everything from camping fridges to projectors, and the 100w vivarium my wife's pet lizard travels in. Yes, that's right, we take our lizard on holiday with us.
Anyway, the most versatile unit I have is the Jackery Explorer 240 v2. It's an extremely compact power station that genuinely could fit in a backpack, but it still has a 300w inverter.
