'This thing was fantastic this summer. I go to quite a few music events each year (camping near venues). This is a great little device. It does everything I need it to do. Charges quickly. So glad I bought it. Perfect for taking on camping trips to charge. Not only is this power station exactly as described, it has exceeded my expectations and is much more impressive than I expected. I went camping for a weekend last week, and this baby kept a full charge for the laptop, tablet, Kindle, cell phone, camping light, and refrigerator. I kept a close eye on the specs so I wouldn't run out of power. I definitely recommend this power station, and if you use it like I do, it won't disappoint. Enjoy!' — Taekion
'[…] With the power station's multiple charging ports, I was able to keep all our essential communication devices powered. I used the 100W PD USB-C ports to quickly charge smartphones and a tablet. The fast charging ensured our phones were ready to use much quicker than standard chargers, keeping us connected to family and emergency services.
"Throughout the testing, I actively used the Jackery app to monitor the power station's battery level and manage its output. The app allowed me to switch between charging modes depending on our power needs, which may be helpful in prolonging battery life over several hours of an outage.
"At night, utilizing the quiet mode was beneficial. It significantly reduced the noise level, allowing my family and me to sleep without disturbance while still powering our fridge and a few fans throughout the night. I also have a gas generator at home, and using the Explorer 1000 v2 is a totally different experience. The absence of generator noise makes you forget the fact that you are using backup power.

'I recently got my hands on the Jackery Portable Power Station, and it has completely transformed the way I approach outdoor adventures and emergency preparedness. First off, the design is superb. It's compact and lightweight, making it easy to transport. I love that I can throw it in my backpack without worrying about it taking up too much space. The handle is sturdy, which is a plus when carrying it around. With a whopping 1500W capacity, this power station can charge my laptop and phone and even run small appliances like a mini fridge or a small coffee maker. I took it on a weekend camping trip, and it powered my devices for the entire duration of the trip! The versatility of charging options is impressive. It comes with multiple AC outlets, USB ports, and even a carport. I was able to charge three devices at once, which is incredibly convenient. Plus, the solar charging capability is a fantastic feature for longer trips.
"During my camping trip, I tested it under various conditions, and it performed flawlessly. The battery life is excellent, and I appreciate the LCD display that shows the remaining power and charging status. It really takes the guesswork out of managing my energy use. Overall, the Jackery Portable Power Station is a game changer for anyone who enjoys the outdoors or wants a reliable backup power source. It's efficient, easy to use, and well worth the investment. I highly recommend it to campers, travelers, or anyone looking to stay powered up in any situation!' — Kimchi Noodle

I'm Never Getting On A Plane Again After Reading These 22 Disgusting Things People Have Actually Witnessed Others Do Mid-Flight
Flying is stressful enough all on its own, but if you're stuck next to someone who apparently doesn't know how to behave in public, it can turn into a full-fledged nightmare. Recently, we asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to share the grossest thing they've seen someone do on a plane, and I sincerely hope you're not eating anything right now. Here's what they had to say: 1."Resting their nasty, sweaty bare feet on the armrests of the person in front of them (me)." —monicat436c2560a 2."I opened the bathroom door, and from a quick glance, I saw a lady looking at her butt mole in the mirror. Then we both screamed, and I shut the door. The flight attendant told me it wasn't my fault; the lady should have locked the door." —mushroom_gurl_ 3."The kid sitting next to me was picking both boogers and earwax, then showing me how big they were before eating them. Their mom giggled about it." —sassycrocodile178 4."Once someone had the shits on the plane, and when I finally got to use the bathroom, hell, it was just torture, ultimately the grossest thing ever! Considering plane bathrooms are already disgusting." —pinkjellyfish654 5."A woman was licking the hair of a man who was sitting by her!" —om6962 6."I saw a man in the seat diagonally in front of me pull lice out of his hair, look at them, and then squish them the entire flight. I felt like bugs were all over me by the time the flight ended." —glitterycactus476 7."There was something that looked like poop in the barf bag. I thought they changed those bags, but not that time." —wildchild4ever 8."He took off his socks and started rubbing his feet, loudly talking to his companion (who didn't seem bothered by this public behavior) about how much lint they were covered in, as all his foot sock lint floated down on the floor under him. Saying he'd need to keep the socks off for a bit since his feet were still so wet. I was luckily far enough away not to smell anything, but close enough to watch this all unfold." "Comically watching the woman across the aisle with her dramatically twisted face, trying to get her husband to notice foot man as well. Horrified faces on other people who noticed, yet no one said anything. Gross." —dogdadof2 9."My son was on a flight to China from L.A. The man sitting next to him proceeded to remove his socks and shoes. He then began to peel dead skin off his toes, strip by strip. Each piece of skin he flicked away into the aisle, sideways at people sitting across from him, or over the heads of people sitting in front of him. Apparently, the smell was horrendous." —babycapricorn129 10."A gentleman who was on the row parallel to mine, opposite side, was clearly sick, sneezing, coughing, and frequently using the restroom. Well, mid-flight, only about an hour and a half in, he hawked up a nasty piece of phlegm, green mucus. Straight from a scientist's lab. He spit it in his clear water bottle that he brought, left it on his tray, on display for everyone to see. YUCK. I can only imagine the feeling of being the passenger beside him." —honeyymx2 11."Not someone, but myself, unfortunately. The last flight I was on was my first time leaving town without my kids. The anxiety I got from leaving them and being a day's worth of traveling away made me feel physically sick. I knew we'd miss them and I knew it would be hard, but I'd generally been strong about it and despite that aspect, very excited. Once we got as far as boarding the plane, I was nauseous from anxiety." "We got seated and by the time we were buckled, instructed to stay seated and about to take off, I was fighting back vomiting in a big way. The plane took off, and it got worse and worse the more we elevated. Before we got fully in the air and able to use the restroom, it happened. I puked VIOLENTLY, but I stopped it with my mouth. My face looked and felt like a chipmunk storing nuts, except it was a day's worth of meals and bile. I had to SWALLOW it, because remember, we couldn't get up yet. This happened three more times, where each time I swallowed it, because it was coming right back up. The fourth time, my mouth couldn't stop it. It blew out with a FORCE. This happened yet another three times, all actually leaving my body. I puked all over my husband and my lap, and still had to wait a few minutes before getting up to go to the restroom. I felt so bad for my husband and the people sitting around us, because the smell was atrocious. I had to ask for a bag to put my jacket in, a barf bag (just in case anything else was left), and some paper towels for my husband. Still shocked that happened." —asherd402 12."Saw a woman who was eating a salty pretzel. It dropped salt all over the tray table, and then she licked the salt from the tray table." —bedonkawho 13."Changing their baby's crappy diaper on the seat and then placing the crappy diaper under the seat in front of them. The whole plane smelled like shit the entire flight." —shopoholic66 14."An older guy in the row in front of me vomited in his sleep. I think he'd been drinking. The staff cleaned everything up with impressive timing, but that plane never smelled fresh again for the rest of that flight." —batmanofbuzzfeed 15."This woman on the plane sitting next to me was on the phone, on speaker FULL VOLUME while clipping her toenails on the tray. It was absolutely horrifying and disgusting." —kaliiiiiuchiisssssfannnn 16."They ate some salad with funky ass, gross-smelling cheese. And being up in the air, there was no escape from the stench! It was horrible! I was trapped!" —savannahg4e56476eb 17."I saw a guy picking crusty skin off his cruddy-looking feet with his fingers, and then he ate a Subway sandwich right afterwards without washing his hands." —grilledcheese93 18."The guy in front of me had open seats next to him and fell asleep on multiple packets of mayonnaise. They broke open. Kind of felt sorry for the guy until I realized he was drunk." —musecubeart 19."A mother picked apart a sandwich, ate a few random pieces, and put the rest inside of a magazine(??) and SHOVED the magazine back into the pocket of the chair in front of her!!!! She LEFT the magazine in the pocket when leaving the plane, so I took it and threw it away at the gate. I was so mad." —bellagavelin 20."A woman next to me ate a tuna sandwich. With mustard. I was gagging. She continued anyway. It was 8:30 a.m." —dazzlingcrocodile831 21."I saw someone go into the bathroom barefoot." —pepperopigeon 22."I had to catch a last-minute flight and was sitting between two of the smelliest human beings. One would have nonstop raunchy farts (actually tilted his butt in my direction), and the other had rank body odor (he was so shiny from oil). When the flight attendant walked past, she got a whiff, grabbed the seat, jerked back, and asked me to come to the back of the plane. There were no other seats to be had, but she allowed me to stay in the kitchen until it was time to land. God bless that woman." —heroictree78 Have you suffered through someone else's gross behavior on a plane?

Planning A "Carry-On Only" Trip? Check Out These 10 Items That Are Truly Worth The Space
A waterproof Kindle you can consider a pocket-size portal to another dimension. It's compact, glare-free, and has a ton of storage for thousands of books, plus a battery life that lasts much longer than your seven-hour flight — up to 10 weeks! A strap to keep your personal items (neck pillow, jacket, purse, etc.) together so you can easily run around the airport without worrying about leaving anything behind. A splurge-worthy set of Cadence Capsules that stick together ~magnetically~ and take up way less space in your bag than big pill bottles. They'll help you condense so you're bringing what you actually need (and not overpacking); plus, they're leakproof and incredibly sturdy so you can fill 'em with whatever: creams, vitamins, small jewelry — truly anything small that you want to keep safe. Or a TSA-approved 16-piece travel toiletries set with a container for each and every one of your tried-and-true faves so you don't have to spend more money on the travel-size versions. These are reusable and leakproof, so your products (and other stuff in your bag!) will stay protected. A Hackwith Design House shirt because there's nothing more travel-friendly than a top you can wear *five* different ways (that we know of — but you might discover more playing around with it). It's timeless because you can always change how you style it, and it's made from a high-quality fabric that's soft, breathable, and can last for years. A 2-in-1 hair tool that curls and straightens so you can achieve the perfect balance of texture and shine with just *one* tool. It's easy to pack for trips, *and* it's dual-voltage so you can have gorgeous hair no matter the country you're visiting. A portable rain hood to pair with *any* jacket so you don't have to try to cram in your practical raincoats. You can keep it in your bag for any impromptu downpours! A flying USB port with four spots to plug in your gadgets so you don't have to pack different power adapters. And bonus: This allows you to make the most of that one working outlet you managed to find at the airport! A Subtl Beauty Stack to condense up to nine makeup products into one small stack. You can customize yours with anything from lip tints to face powder. And as convenient as it is for travel, it's also perfect to keep in your purse for any on-the-go touch-ups! A skyline mini wallet emergency kit packed with the practical items that are easy to forget (like hair ties, tampons, Tylenol, and more!) while still being small enough to fit in your purse — so it definitely *won't* take up too much space in your carry-on.
