The Jackery Explorer 300 is a 7.5 pound station with 292Wh of LiFePO4 capacity, 300W continuous output and a 600W peak. Beyond two wall sockets it adds a 100W PD USB-C jack, a pair of USB-A jacks and a 120W car socket, and it gets to 80% in about 2.8 hours from a 100W Jackery panel.

It is the heaviest of the six, in exchange for the highest capacity and the best-known solar pairing. The listing quotes more than 4,000 cycles to 70% capacity.

It suits campers who want a trusted name, a handle and an easy solar plan. The kit includes an AC adapter and a car charger cable.

The DaranEner 300W stores 192Wh in LiFePO4 cells and delivers 300W with a 600W surge from two pure sine wave AC outlets. It recharges from 0 to 100% in about 2 hours through a 100W wall input, and has a 60W USB-C port.

It weighs 5.73 pounds and has less capacity than the Jackery and Anker, in return for the quickest refills. The listing says the cells tolerate temperatures up to 140 degrees F.

It suits campers who top up between outings and want a lighter box. The 140 degree F tolerance suits hot car trunks.

The EnginStar 300W holds 296Wh in a 9 by 5.5 by 7.5 inch body and has two pure sine wave 110V AC outlets. Protections cover overload, over-discharge, over-charge, overheating and short circuits, and it recharges in about 7 hours from the wall.

It stores about as much as the Jackery for much less, with a slow wall recharge. The package adds a home charger, a car charger cable and a 12-month limited service period.
