Loved your video. I have the Jackery 1000, wish I would have purchased the 2000. And yes planning on purchasing the Dometic. So this truly helped me have a clear time limit, amd limits regarding these 2 products.. Thanks
So good. Great to see the difference without that inverter. I’ve got the Jackery and this run time is making the Dometic look like a good purchase option!
Wow 40w solar input? That’s pretty bad. Seems like you have their first generation. The new jackery do not charge that slow. I have 3 and non charge that slow like yours.
Thank you ! Lots of excellent information ! Make more videos like do overlanders a dual battery system with a DC to DC inverter/ charger ! And the cost !
this is the data I needed. thx for sharing. We have the 1000 Jackery and we have an old dometic we rarely use. Strangely enough, we favor the Yeti (I think ours is 45) but we did recently get the Yeti 24 Roadie and I might b crazy but I feel it doesn't perform as well as the big Yeti. So my mind starts exploring. 24 hrs isn't a long time to power the fridge but this data helps. Yeti 24 can stay cold 24 hrs before all ice turns water (we never use ice directly in there, they are always in our reusable stasher ziploc and never leaks, bonus is once they turn ice, we use them to clean dishes while at camp). I will test the roadie 24 more, our big Yeti holds ice almost 10 days (yes! 10). I'm baffled as to the roadie's performance, perhaps the darker color really affects its performance.
Jackery is overrated. I’ve had it and have the same problem. Bluetti is way better for real world functionality. I went to the eb70 and got two SP200 panels with decent conditions the two SP200 produce about 350watts and the bluetti e70 can only take 160watts and charge in 5.5hrs with solar from dead. With the extra 140watts from the other panel you can power anything else up to the extra 140watts the extra panel is producing without effecting the speed of the eb70 charging.
Great Video!!!! We feel your pain.... we experienced a trail that degraded to nothing to the point we had to reverse a ways to find a turning point on our most recent adventure Thanks for sharing your video if interested this was ours ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gHInG6H0jO0.html
Is this an earlier model? It says max input is 100w for the current model. I've seen 80 watts in from same panel, but I'm in S Ca. Also, did you run the fridge off AC or DC? DC is more efficient.
Nice video, but I have to ask why would you park in the lake to camp? That's not really loving the environment. Now before anyone jumps on me and calls me a tree hugger, I was a logger for 35 years and would never think of doing that. Great scenery though.
Thanks for the video and tests. I wonder how good it works if the jackery is plugged into solar panels, do you think that with full sun it would be auto-sufficient?
our matching Jackery solar saga 100w gives 61 to 64ish watts. Our Aspernova 54 quart 12v 35 watt will run almost 2 days without charge. With charge via solar it tops up fine everyday in the sun. Maybe the panels you are using are not very efficient. Secondly are you using the plug in dc? Switch to the ac cigarette lighter plug it is far more efficient.
I saw your posting on IOverlander. If the info is still current, I would be interested in taking you up on your offer for a night or maybe two. I’m in Qualicum Beach tonite but will be in the Courtenay/Cumberland area tomorrow, 2031/06/26. My YT channel is HogTide Rising.
Thanks for this wonderful test / review. I have been contemplating buying the Dometic 75DZ. I have a Jackery 1,000, and wondered if that would be enough juice to power the Dometic for a long weekend. Thanks to your test with the Jackery 500, I believe the Jackery 1,000 should easily power the Dometic 75DZ for a long weekend, maybe longer. And charging/cooling down the unit the night before, is an excellent tip. Thanks.
Hi, Ray. How is your Jackery 1000 doing with the Domestic? I've got the same Jackery and looking into buying the fridge now. Have you any thoughts or tis? Best.
@@monolithpoem My Jackery 1000 runs my Dometic fridge (using the cigarette lighter plug) for about 48-50 hours. That’s long enough for a weekend trip. I’m very pleased.
Thanks for this review! I just got a Dometic 55 and am looking at the Jackery. This was the most helpful video of all. Told me exactly what I need to know!
Hey, do you have any numbers on how long the 55 lasts with the 500 jackery? Should be around 4-5 days, right? Atleast on the fact sheet it says that the 75DZ consumes 3 times more than the 55.
