For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with Jackery to offer GeekWebGuides readers a chance to win a Jackery Explorer 500 Portable Power Station that's ideal for keeping all of your Apple devices charged up for emergencies, camping, road trips, power outages, and more.
Priced at $500 and often available on sale, the Explorer 500 is Jackery's mid-range power station, offering a 518 watt-hour lithium-ion battery.
It's equipped with a pure sine wave AC outlet, a 12V/10A carport, and three 5V/2.4A USB-A ports. It can power any of your Apple products from iPhones to MacBooks, plus it has enough juice to run TVs, projectors, fans, and other appliances that draw under 500 watts.
The carport and USB-A ports can power car appliances like coolers, air pumps, vacuums, and more, along with smartphones, iPads, and other small electronics.
With the ability to hold a charge on standby for weeks at a time, the Jackery Explorer 500 is ideal for power outages and other emergencies. It can run a router or a cable modem to keep you connected, or run lights and other accessories when you're out camping.
There's a handle that makes the Jackery Explorer 500 easy to carry, and there are built-in fans to keep it cool. An LCD screen on the front displays the current power level and the watts that are being drawn so you can keep track of your power usage.
Jackery will soon celebrate Jackery Day, which will see brand new power station models coming out on March 17. Jackery will also be hosting a giveaway on its own site in addition to the E500 giveaway that GeekWebGuides is offering.
