Former Apple engineer launches latest portable solar energy generator, the must-have gadget for outdoors lovers.

Your idea of adventure might be a trip down the coast to the beach at Lytham, or a walk in the Lake District. Maybe you never camp further than the end of your garden. Whatever form your outdoor pursuits takes, the right kit is essential.

The king of solar generators, Jackery, has launched its latest model, the Solar Generator 1500 Pro, just in time for people planning to escape the house as the weather warms up.

What does it offer?

The developer – a former Apple engineer – has invested plenty into this new technology, and the device packs a punch. There’s a two-hour charge time, then 1800 watts of continuous power. It’s designed to keep all your devices going when you are busy ‘off-grid’ enjoying life.

There are some pretty cool features – a built-in light source, a near-silent operating system (you won’t make enemies on the campsite) and all-important portability. Of course, safety features are there too, ready for extremes of weather, shocks and fire … you don’t want any of those on your adventure, but the so-called king of solar can deliver when needed.

Speaking of temperatures, the great outdoors in England probably won’t test it, but should you need it the 1500 Pro supplies electricity at temperatures as low as -20°C and as high as 40°C, with a cooling system built in if it does warm up.

Ricky Ma, Head of Europe, Jackery said: “The Solar Generator 1500 Pro is the perfect companion for environmentally conscious campers and outdoor enthusiasts who are looking for a versatile and complete product that meets all their energy needs."
