Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 is a home power station with lithium iron phosphate cells, built to stay near an outlet more than for a weekend away. It doesn't grow with extra batteries: what's inside is all it will ever have. When power fails it switches to the battery quickly, so a running computer or a router don't notice.
It charges from the grid, the sun or the car outlet. To reach the maximum solar charging power, two panels need to be connected together, with a connector bought separately. It also powers appliances with a motor that draws a high startup peak, like a fridge's compressor, but it isn't suited to servers, workstations or any equipment that can't tolerate even a brief disconnection.
If the connected load stays too light, for example a router left on by itself, it turns off the outputs after a few hours so it doesn't drain the battery for nothing: for continuous use, this setting has to be turned off in the app. The warranty printed on the box applies in full only if the product is registered online within the deadline. It's built for anyone who wants a fixed home reserve for short unexpected events; anyone who needs absolute continuity, without even a moment's gap, needs something else.

Which documents this page rests on
The rest of the data comes from one page on the manufacturer's site, cited row by row in the table above.
A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.

Pros and cons
In favour
- The hundred-watt USB-C port is enough for a laptop, without its own charger.
- It stays quiet even while working, not just while charging.
- It also powers appliances with a motor that draws a high startup peak, like a fridge's compressor.
- When power fails it switches to the battery quickly: connected appliances stay on.
Worth knowing
- It shouldn't be connected to servers or workstations that can't tolerate interruptions: it isn't professional-grade power. source
- If the connected load is too light, like a router, it turns off the outputs on its own after a few hours. source
- Full warranty is only obtained by registering the product within the deadline; otherwise only the base years remain.
