"The Explorer 1000 houses a 1,070Wh LiFePO4 battery within its compact frame, weighing only 23.8 pounds. This capacity translates to real-world performance that matters during an outage: running a full-size refrigerator for roughly 10 hours to preserve your groceries, powering a space heater for about 1.5 hours to stay warm, or keeping your internet router and laptop running for an entire day to work from home."
"The LFP battery chemistry separates this model from the more affordable options: Typical lithium-ion batteries do not last long, but this LiFePO4 arrangement retains upwards of 70 percent of its original capacity after 4,000 charge cycles. That kind of longevity equates to well over a decade of service, making that $449 price tag seem much more reasonable if you calculate it on a cost-per-year-of-ownership basis. This battery technology is also less susceptible to temperature extremes than a standard lithium-ion cell."
Jackery Explorer 1000 is a portable power station with a 1,070Wh LiFePO4 battery and 1,500W continuous (3,000W surge) output. The unit weighs 23.8 pounds and can run a full-size refrigerator for roughly 10 hours, a space heater for about 1.5 hours, or an internet router and laptop for an entire day. LiFePO4 chemistry retains over 70 percent capacity after 4,000 charge cycles, providing well over a decade of usable life and better temperature resilience than typical lithium-ion cells. Emergency charging via the Jackery app can recharge the unit in about one hour, while the default mode takes about 1.7 hours. A current price reduction to $449 includes a free 3-port 103W fast charger.
