Ecoflow and Bluetti marketing machines have successfully waged war against Jackery (and each other of course). This has led to an unfortunate trend of faster and faster battery charging and corner cutting.
I love Jackery's for their quietness and that fact that they don't get anywhere nearly has hot in temperature as the competition. The Jackery Explorer 500's AC adapter is separate from the main unit, which reduces battery heat. The charge rate is very slow, so the batteries will barely get hot and the fan won't have to run very much. Bluetti and Ecoflow's have a default AC battery charge rate that I can only call Battery Abuse. To charge them safely, you'll need an App, so you can adjust the speed. You won't need an app with Jackery, but you will need lots of time. I think it takes 4 or 5 hours to charge the explorer 500. I'm totally fine with that, knowing that my batteries are well taken care of; plus, the unit is so quiet when charging.
As for Ecoflow's LIFePo4's longevity statistics: Those numbers are based on ideal slow charge rates--Not the default charging speed, which will greatly shorten the life of your power station. Ecoflow occasionally cuts corners with false advertising. They'll create marketing photos, what show a nice silver metallic color on the power station, but the customers receive a unit with none metallic finish--Grey actually. I wonder what other corners Ecoflow is cutting. It's all about marketing share and they are waging an impressive war.
Jackery has finally fought back with the Explorer 2000 Plus, which has fast charging and LiFePo4 Batteries. Jackery's older and more affordable power stations, however, still have lots of merit. They are super quiet and run so much cooler than most Ecoflow and Bluetti's. The biggest enemy of batteries is heat. Keep your batteries cool!
For those of you under Edison, this rebate takes about 30 days to come back in a form of a check. I got this when I purchased a 300-watt Anker. I would've gotten this 500W if it was this price back then. Cheers!
I'm looking at the 3000 Pro which is on special , does anyone know if this is a good unit?
