Jackery SolarSaga 40 Air

42 W, and 28.5 V at 14 F against 26 V on the label. Inside the solar limits of 65 of the 78 stations checked.

By the Power Station Chart team, from the maker's label figures. Last reviewed October 31, 2026.

The SolarSaga 40 Air in brief

Weighing 1.98 lb, the SolarSaga 40 Air gives 42 W at 22.5 V and carries an IP68 rating. Its open-circuit voltage is 26 V, which climbs to 28.5 V at 14°F. That stays inside the 60 V input limit on Jackery stations from the Explorer 600 v2 to the HomePower 3600 Pro Max, and the DC8020 plug goes straight into their ports. Each of those takes one panel in series. Stations with 28 V inputs, such as the Explorer 300 v2 and the BLUETTI EB3A, fall outside, so 65 of the 78 stations are inside the limits.

FAQ

Can the SolarSaga 40 Air charge a Jackery Explorer 300 v2?

It has the matching DC8020 plug, but the 300 v2 accepts 28 V and this panel reaches 28.5 V at 14°F. That puts the pairing outside the voltage limits in cold weather.

How many SolarSaga 40 Air panels fit in series on an Explorer 1000 v2?

One. The Explorer 1000 v2 accepts up to 60 V and has a DC8020 port, so the plug fits directly.

Does the SolarSaga 40 Air work with a BLUETTI EB3A?

The EB3A needs a DC8020 to DC7909 adapter, and its 28 V limit sits below the 28.5 V this panel reaches at 14°F. That pairing is outside the limits.
