First, the title of this post says the item is the HomePower 3000 but when you click on the link at Wellbots it takes you to the Explorer 3000 v2. Second, the Wellbots pictures show the unit, AC power cable, and the manual. The Jackery website says that is all either model comes with, but on the Wellbots site if you scroll down to what is in the box, it lists multiple cables and accessories. I wonder what you will actually get?
I called Jackery and asked what the difference is between the HomePower 3000 and the Explorer 3000 v2 as if you look at the manuals they appear to be identical except a slight and I mean almost no/slight weight difference. Jackery tried telling me the 3000 v2 was only 3000w output, I corrected them and they saw I was correct in the manual. Then they tried telling me the 3000 v2 was not LiFePO4, I again walked them to their own manual where it says that it is LiFePO4. Then they tried saying the HomePower series is focused on home backup and the Explorer series is focused on outdoor use. I asked what that means and they put me on hold. Then they came back and said the HomePower uses a transfer switch. I told them a transfer switch is what it installed on your home and either unit would connect to one via the 30amp plug. Not impressed with their product knowledge to say the least...
I got put on hold again and a different person came on the phone. He directed me to ask the Jackery website AI what the difference is. I said, no I am asking you, the company, what the difference is. He then said the HomePower line is built to 4,000 cycles and will last 10 years and has a 3+2 year warranty. He said the Explorer v2 is built to 4,000 cycles and has a 3+2 year warranty but is NOT built to last 10 years. I asked if they use different batteries and he said yes, but could not tell me the difference was. I wonder if this is the very slight weight difference mentioned above? I asked where on the website it says 10 years. So under the price in the bullets/overview on the Jackery site for the HomePower he is correct, the HomePower 3000 does say built to last 10 years with a 5 year warranty. The Explorer 3000 v2 does not say that in the bullets/overview directly under the price on the Jackery site (see below for links).
Needless to say I am stumped here and I am very interested in this deal for my 12v camping fridge and StarLink. Are they the same units just renamed or are they actually slightly different? I mean if the warranty is 3+2 or 5 years, you will never be able to hold them to the 10 year claim anyway. The Explorer appears to be sold out, so I wonder if they renamed it and discontinued the Explorer 3000 v2 as the HomePower 3000.
I did contact Wellbots via chat and they just copied and pasted the what's in the box part of their website. I asked if it arrives without the listed items. They said to contact them and their support team would ensure I get them or if I contact the manufacturer, they usually provide missing accessories for free. I don't really get a warm fuzzy about this given Jackery accessories are expensive for what they are. That said, I am probably going to roll the dice and see what happens as this is the best deal I have seen on a 3000+ watt hour unit that has a 3,600w inverter with surge for higher temp use.
My main hesitation and always has been with Jackery is they use their own 8mm or 8.1mm plugs for DC input which means more adaptors if using non-Jackery panels which don't get great reviews or test well. Also, the voltage and amp input on the DC inputs is on the lower end limiting what you use for solar panels, again possibly explaining the issues people have trying to charge this unit via solar. Jackery wants you to use their ecosystem which I get, but in my opinion they are willing to sacrifice performance with the solar charging to do it.

The Pecron f3000lfp for $854 (or less e.g. with outbound power 10% off sign up) seems like a better deal. Better specs in pretty much every way. [youtube.com]

Upon further searching the Jackery site I did find where it says built for 10 years of use for the Explorer 3000 v2 which tells me the HomePower and Explorer are the same unit, just renamed. The only thing I don't like is I did not realize the 3+2 year warranty is not a 5 year warranty. The unit comes with a 3 year warranty and you can purchase an optional 2 year warranty within 30 days of purchase from Jackery. This is kind of false advertising to me as in multiple places on their website they refer to the unit having a 5 year warranty and in other parts they refer to 3+2. I am not going to cancel my order, but between the Jackery customer service reps not knowing anything about their own products and the shady warranty advertising that is already 2 strikes in my opinion. We will see how it performs out of the box.

Homepower 3000 one recently came out in the spring or so, has low idle power and may be the lightest 3kwh unit.
There is the older li-ion explorer 3000 pro which everyone should pause on.
This link actually goes to explorer 3000 (not pro) which is lifepo4 at least.
One can definitely complain about their product naming.
Anyone done it before? I do remember the IRS requirement being a bit weird, having to be installed etc.
