Most capable Flat-sized (3–8 kWh)
Highest technical score among the 6 sheets in the Home backup category (flat-sized tier): 84/100.
How we assign awards →The differences that matter
- 1.07 kWh vs 4.608 kWh → a 1000 W load lasts about an hour against four and a half.
- 1500 W vs 3800 W continuous → on the Jackery two kitchen appliances together exceed the limit; on the Zendure they run.
- 400 W vs 3000 W solar input → with full sun a full recharge takes nearly three hours against an hour and a half.
- 10.8 kg vs 55 kg → the first is carried in one hand, the second is set down and left.
Which one to choose
Choose Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 if…
you need a battery for a weekend away or to keep a PC and router running through a short blackout, one you can move with a single hand. Above 1500 W it will not cope, it cannot be expanded, and with a 400 W solar input a full recharge takes nearly three hours of full sun; the switch to backup has a brief pause (20 ms).
Choose Zendure SuperBase V 4600 if…
you want to keep several loads running for a long time, with six mains outlets and up to 3800 W: about four and a half hours for a 1000 W load. It accepts up to 3000 W of panels, switches over as a UPS in 13 ms and is expandable, but it weighs 55 kg and stays where you put it.
