Jackery launches Father's Day sale on power stations

Jackery Australia has launched a Father's Day sale on selected portable power stations and solar generator bundles, available across Australia for a limited period in early September.

The promotion covers products aimed at camping, four-wheel driving, caravanning, off-grid travel, home backup and DIY use, with advertised discounts ranging from AUD $100 to AUD $2,150. Offers apply while stocks last.

Included in the sale is the Jackery Solar Generator 1000 v2, priced at AUD $1,199, down from AUD $1,299. The bundle includes the Explorer 1000 v2 and one SolarSaga 100W panel.

Jackery lists the model with 1,070Wh capacity, 1,500W rated output and 3,000W surge power. It is positioned for camping, road trips, emergency backup and outdoor use.

The Explorer 1500 Ultra is discounted to AUD $1,599 from AUD $2,299, a reduction of AUD $700. Jackery says the unit has 1,536Wh capacity, 1,800W rated output, 3,600W peak power and IP65 protection against water and dust.

Another discounted package is the Explorer 1000 Plus Kit with one SolarSaga 200W panel, now priced at AUD $2,399, down from AUD $3,899. That represents a saving of AUD $1,500.

According to Jackery, the Explorer 1000 Plus Kit offers 2,000W output, expandable capacity and solar charging. It is presented as an option for household essentials, outdoor gear and use during power outages or off-grid travel.

The largest advertised discount applies to the Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Plus with two SolarSaga 100W panels. The bundle is priced at AUD $2,449, down from AUD $4,599.

Jackery says the Solar Generator 2000 Plus has 2,042Wh capacity and 3,000W output. It is positioned for larger off-grid setups, caravanning, extended outdoor use and backup for essential household items.

Outdoor push

The sale is framed around Father's Day gift buying and the start of spring, when more Australians return to camping and road travel. Portable battery systems and solar charging kits have become a growing category in the outdoor and emergency preparedness market, serving consumers who want to run phones, laptops, lights, portable fridges, cameras and tools away from mains power.

Retailers in the segment are increasingly pitching these products not only to campers and caravan owners, but also to households seeking a limited backup option during outages. That has widened the customer base beyond traditional outdoor buyers to families looking for devices that can cover short-term domestic needs.

Jackery's promotional material groups its products by use case, with smaller bundles aimed at weekend trips and larger systems aimed at longer travel or backup for home essentials. It also highlights the durability of the Explorer 1500 Ultra, which it says is suited to worksites and harsher outdoor conditions.

Product range

In its product descriptions, Jackery identifies the Solar Generator 1000 v2 as a balance between portability and output for camping and general backup. The Explorer 1500 Ultra is presented as a more rugged unit for overlanding, four-wheel driving and tool use.

The Explorer 1000 Plus Kit is described as an expandable option for families wanting a broader backup setup. The Solar Generator 2000 Plus is positioned as a larger platform for caravanning and more extended off-grid use.

Founded in California in 2012, Jackery sells portable power products and solar generator systems in multiple markets, including Australia. It says its Australian range is tailored to outdoor travel, home backup and everyday off-grid use.

The promoted offers cover devices intended to support phones, laptops, cameras, lights, fridges, tools and selected appliances when conventional power is unavailable.
