I have the Jackery 240 and the Jackery Solar Saga 60. When using the solar Saga 60 I get between 45w and 55w. I do live at around 8000ft above sea level. When I bought it in early 2020 every review out there said that all charging is capped at 40w. The 12 V and AC charging IS capped at 40w, but it was nice to find out after using it that solar charging is not capped at 40w. At 55w it takes about 4 hours to charge.

electronicsNmore I see. Ok, I will check this and confirm. (Sounds like, as much as I do not want to have an auxiliary battery just to run a very small fridge, I am going to have to... ). I’m getting the sense, the Jackery is more for “techies” who need to stay connected with their IPads and drones. I am simply looking to run the minimal components needed to travel comfortably, without seeking hookups. I do not need to access my phone, IPad, all day. In fact, this is why I am choosing this lifestyle. Basic, minimal and untethered. Again, appreciate all of your advice! Best to you!
