Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 is a compact LiFePO4 power station that fits camping, fridge backup, and light outage duty. It can run a refrigerator for hours, keep a heating pad going for multiple nights, and power USB C laptops more efficiently than using the AC adapter. The unit is very quiet on the low setting and works well for bedroom use or as a short UPS bridge. Main limits are the tight DC8020 solar ports, modest solar input of up to 400W, and runtime that drops fast on high draw loads like heaters or gaming laptops.

Several questions I have on these power stations.

  1. If you use a laptop and multiple monitor setup but you do get power outages and don't want any downtime, you want it connected to a UPS right? If you use a surge protector, well you going to have the power turn off on your monitors and your laptop you have to disconnect the cables from the monitor to even use your laptop right by itself? So if you use a surge protector, you going to have to disconnect cables and connect it to the power station when a power outage happens so there is downtime. Do people do this if downtime is not a concern?

  1. If you buy this power station or similar ones, could you use it like a UPS? So have this power station connected at all times so it's 100% battery. But using it as a UPS or is that not good? So if a power outage happens, well you don't lose any power on your laptop and monitors since it's already connected to a power station? If so, wouldn't this be bad for the power station battery though? Because shouldn't you be making sure your power station is fully charged to 100% and then you unplug it. Then you basically have the power station on the side so when it's needed during a power outage, then you connect to it? Is that the proper way to use it? But how would you make sure you don't have any downtime though when a power outage happens? I read something like you are suppose to have your devices connected to a UPS. So when a power outage happens, you still would have power on your devices for a bit. I read that is what a UPS is for and not meant for powering your devices for a long time. So even a big wattage UPS won't last a laptop and multiple monitor for an hour or so?

  1. But how do you then use the power station power without downtime or is that not possible? I thought you would then disconnect the monitor and laptop cables from the UPS and then connect the same cables to the power station you have laying around but doing that will give you some downtime. But is that the proper way to do it? I thought I read you connect the power station to the UPS so that way there is no downtime? Can someone explain how that works? So it's like all connected together? So if it does, does it use up all the UPS battery first to 0% before it switches power to the power station? Or does it immediately use the power station power and only when the power station goes to 0%, then it goes back to the UPS? Let's assume if you could connect the UPS to the power station, UPS has like 10 minute battery left.

I'm looking for a power station for my storage unit. I would be running a laptop and label maker and maybe an over head light for a couple of hours tops. Would this work or would I need something more powerful?
Tell me more about this business you are running from your storage unit.

Great unit; work well. Got it last BF deal.
If you have a laptop that can be powered with USB-C; use that instead of AC adapter. While AC power conversion does take a hit with efficiently, DC usage is much more efficient.
As for UPS mode - it can switch to providing battery power within 20ms of power loss according to their manual. So while many devices may be "ok", it is not a real 0 ms UPS switchover. This will depend on device sensitivity to short power fluctuation - 20ms in this case.

eh, I think it depends on what the UPS is for.

Are you in an area where brown outs are regular and you need to smooth over a few dumps in power that last less than a minute? I think an actual UPS is cheaper and will do the job and is cheaper to replace down the line (UPS and batteries are consumable products and don't last forever). Also it'll be uninterrupted if you get a decent UPS.

If you're talking about a situation where you're out of power for a while, and want to dig out some power for a bit, then this can be helpful. It's possible to connect your PC to a UPS, then when the power is out, connect the UPS to a jackery or other power bank to last longer.

I wouldn't use this as a UPS, it doesn't necessarily switch over as well as a UPS, assuming it has EPS (emergency power switch) that not all units have, it's still a delayed switch, more for appliances than a PC.

If you need a UPS, get a UPS, and whether you need a UPS depends on how is power relaibility in your area as well as how important is continual uptime is on your system.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I just discovered by trial and error and confirmed with Jackery support important undocumented details running this in UPS pass through mode that should be important to those who want to use this in UPS mode. Passing this info along for people trying to decide.

I am one of those people who are tired of replacing batteries in my UPS every 2-3 years. I dont need the AVR of the true UPS but I do have blackouts on occasion. You can use this instead of a true UPS but there are caveats that will drain the battery lifetime. The current firmware v1.0 provides UPS pass thru mode ONLY with battery saver turned off, so the Jackery will be at 100% at all times. This shortens the lifetime of the battery. If you choose battery saver mode, limiting the charge to a max of 85%, then the load will NOT run off the line, but thru the battery and inverter and cycle the battery between 80-85%. This shortens the life of the battery and inverter. So UPS mode on the Jackery shortens the life of the battery. There is zero documentation on this behavior on the web (I searched) and I confirmed this with Jackery. Bottom line - the current jackery firmware degrades the battery in UPS mode. How much it does depends on your load or if charged always at 100%, dont know.

As to the switchover time, I tested it with my computer system that draws between 120W - 200W. Everything worked fine. I tried the same with a River 3 Pro that had a shorter spec for switchover time. That worked fine on switchover, but on battery power, the monitor occasionally blinked, which suggests power wasnt clean. So its not just switchover time that matters.

finally the one thing that is great about this Jackery is that in slow charge mode, it is dead quiet. You can put it in a bedroom with a CPAP or whatever and you will not hear it. It is quieter than <30dB. 30dB is the noise level of a typical refrigerator, so that should inform you.

Is this better than Anker? My wife bought an Anker one recently but it didn't have the AC port. Thinking of getting this one instead.

Depends on the power draw of the laptop. Figure you're only going to get 80% efficiency converting from DC power to AC power and back to DC power for the laptop power brick. At that point, it's 800 W divided by the power draw of the gaming laptop (per hour). I'd estimate 3-6 hours, depending on power draw.
It has a usb c 100 watt port so only one way conversion unless you have an insane laptop.

I've done some research on this and would like your thoughts on this Jackerv vs the EcoFlow River 2 currently on sale for $339 at Sams Club (Normally $499). Granted, it's rated at 800 watts, but can you guys weigh in on if that EcoFlow is as good or better? I do realize it's capacity is lower, but it comes with 2 45Watt solar panels and has a 70 minute recharge time. I plan to use it as a power supply in the event of losing power as well as bringing it on the boat for power supply when needed.

How long can this run a 250W portable heater in a vehicle/car cabin?
