  • Power: 2,200W
  • Cell technology: LiFePO4
  • Outputs: 3x AC, 1x 100W USB-C, 1x 30W USB-C, 1x 18W USB-A, and 1x 12V/120W car port
  • Fast charging speed: 1.7-hour emergency supercharge

While the 2,000Wh capacity and 2,200W power output remain the same, the lithium-ion batteries are replaced by LiFePO4 cells, which not only gives the unit a much longer lifespan – 4,000 recharge cycles versus the previous 1,000 cycles – but makes the unit safer and enables it to be a bit smaller and lighter compared to the Explorer 2000 Pro.

Because this unit is designed to be used a home backup system, it’s output sound level is only 30 db so that it won’t disturb anyone’s sleep or sanity.

Jackery claims that this is the smallest, lightest LiFePO4-powered backup power unit on the market, making it perfect for both in-home use and moving about for camping or outdoor work tasks.
