Jackery Releases Ultra-Compact Explorer 100D Power Station

Jackery has introduced the Explorer 100D, an ultra-versatile portable power station designed with a 96Wh capacity and LiFePO4 battery chemistry to provide active professionals and power users on the go with reliable backup power.

Portable power stations have quietly moved out of the camping aisle and into everyday workflows. As professionals remain on the move and grid reliability faces seasonal strain, the demand for personal power that fits in a carry-on bag has grown sharper. Addressing that shift, Jackery announced a new portable power station designed specifically to bridge the gap between pocket-sized lithium batteries and heavier home backup units.

The newly unveiled Explorer 100D is built to serve active professionals, remote workers, and frequent travelers. According to company leadership, the device draws on years of engineering refinement to support demanding digital habits without weighing down a backpack.

Developed for peak productivity, the Explorer 100D represents years of honed design and feature implementation, while maintaining focus on the top-quality engineering and unmatched consistency that make Jackery portable power stations must-haves for work and travel. Thanks to that collection of refined expertise, it’s among the longest-lasting ultra-portable batteries ever.

Compact Build, Battery Chemistry, and Charging Protocols

Measuring just 11.9 by 8.3 by 8.7 cm and tipping the scale at 855 grams, the unit features an integrated soft-touch handle and supports an optional shoulder strap. Its 96Wh (30,000mAh) capacity is explicitly sized to comply with domestic and international flight regulations, allowing passengers to pack it in carry-on luggage for mid-transit device charging.

Under the housing, the unit utilizes lithium iron phosphate cells rather than standard lithium-ion chemistry. The LFP battery is engineered for up to 8 years of regular use, retaining over 80 percent of its original capacity after 3,000 full charge-discharge cycles.

To handle modern laptops and smartphones, the power station delivers a maximum output of 158W. Front-facing ports include two USB-C connections capable of delivering 140W each, alongside an 18W USB-A port for lower-draw accessories. The system supports advanced charging protocols including AVS, PD, and PPS to match precise device specifications.

Recharging Options and Multi-Environment Versatility

Power replenishment on the road or off-grid relies on multiple input methods. Using a 100W USB Power Delivery wall charger, the unit reaches an 80 percent charge in 1.6 hours and a full recharge in just over two hours. When working away from grid power, it supports up to 100W of direct solar input under clear skies.

Vehicle compatibility further broadens its utility for travelers. Plugging into a standard 12V passenger vehicle outlet delivers an 80 percent charge in slightly more than three hours, while 24V configurations found in RVs, commercial transport, and boats drop a full charge cycle to just over two hours.

Retail Availability and Pricing Across Markets

Launch details vary by region. In Canada, the Explorer 100D arrives on Amazon and direct from Jackery Canada with a standard MSRP of $179 CAD, accompanied by an introductory launch price of $159 CAD. The Jackery Explorer 100D will be available starting November 15th through Walmart for $99, while the power station is already available from Costco in a two-pack for $179.99.

Jackery Explorer 300 Review — Is This the Best Compact Power Station for Camping?

Larger homes have larger power needs, especially in areas where outages can last for extended periods. Seeking to expand its lineup, Jackery revealed a fresh portable power station built around lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, known for their enhanced safety and longevity, which the brand first brought to market in 2023. What truly sets the new Explorer 100D apart is its status as Jackery’s most compact power station to date, scaling down to just 4.6 by 3.4 by 3.4 inches while tipping the scales at a mere 1.87 pounds.

Thanks to its portable dimensions and 96Wh (30,000mAh) energy storage, users can easily slip it into a carry-on bag to keep multiple electronics running throughout an extended flight. Shoppers who prefer not to wait can currently purchase the power station through Costco, though it is sold exclusively as a $179.99 two-pack bundle. Alternative 30,000mAh portable chargers that are smaller and less expensive do exist on the market, but the 100D’s LFP cells are designed to endure up to 8 years of frequent operation alongside a 3,000 charge cycle lifespan, allowing it to comfortably outlast rival models powered by conventional lithium-ion cells.
