I'm actually interested in a 2 or 3 KW model as well but Everytime a deal comes up on one of those I do the math and 2x $350 or 3x $350 is always cheaper than the sale price on the bigger unit, making it very hard to justify considering I have no real need for a higher max wattage. More smaller units= more flexibility and a lot more portability.

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.

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.
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.

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.
