The Big Battery Pack You Can Take With You (Jackery PowerBar Review) [VIDEO]

In this video I review the Jackery PowerBar. It’s a big ol’ battery with a 110-volt wall socket on one end. If you have the need for it, it’s a really great thing to have. (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

VIDEO LINKS (Amazon affiliate links)
* Jackery PowerBar
* The little fan I use
* The solar panel the guy in one of the reviews mentioned
* The cable you’d need to charge the Power Bar with the solar panel
* Jackery Explorer 240 video review I did

If you buy the PowerBar and review it and want a free Jackery Bolt, send an email to Jackery customer service (tester at jackery dot com) with a link to your Amazon review after you’ve written it. They’ll send you a free Jackery Bolt. I’m not involved in this at all, so if you have any questions, email Jackery.
