Technical comparison · Home backup
Two home power stations with the same LFP chemistry but different jobs: 2.048 kWh, expandable, at 23 kg against 1.07 kWh, not expandable, at 10.8 kg. The choice is between energy in reserve and ease of moving it (manufacturer-declared values).

The differences that matter
- 2.048 kWh (up to 6.144 expanded) against 1.07 kWh, no expansion → a fridge and router last much longer on the first; the second has the capacity it has and no more.
- 2400 W against 1500 W continuous → the first handles an induction hob or hairdryer alongside other loads, the second does not.
- 1000 W against 400 W solar input → with more panels the first refills in a sunny day, the second far more slowly.
- 23 against 10.8 kg → one is moved with a single hand, the other takes two people.
Which one to choose
Choose EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max if…
in a blackout you want the fridge, router and a few lights running through an evening, or a load up to 2400 W, with 4 mains outlets and the option to grow to 6.144 kWh with extra batteries. It also takes 1000 W from panels. The trade-off: 23 kg, so it stays in one spot at home and rarely moves.
Choose Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 if…
the unit has to travel, from garage to balcony to car boot, and loads up to 1500 W on 2 outlets are enough. It weighs 10.8 kg and has a stated noise level of 22 dB. What you give up: no expansion, solar input up to 400 W and a 3-year warranty.
