About Jackery AIR-W Wind Power Accessor

Jackery AIR-W is a portable wind power generator made for outdoor use. The device is composed of a wind rotor, a small generator and a stand, so assembly is simple. Carbon fiber thermoplastic composite keeps the structure light and improves strength and fatigue resistance. A dual motor layout raises the output to 200 watts and allows charging even when wind speed is low. Several units can be connected in parallel. Foldable post nails on the tripod are pressed into the soil to keep the generator stable in strong wind.
