Jackery Explorer 2000 v2 vs Jackery Explorer 300 v2

Buy the Explorer 2000 v2 if you need to run a fridge, microwave, power tools or a whole room during an outage; its 2,042Wh LiFePO4 battery and 2,200W output (4,400W surge) put it in a different class. Buy the Explorer 300 v2 if you want a grab-and-go pack for phones, laptops, a CPAP, a drone or a small fan, at 8.3 lbs and small enough for a backpack. Both use LiFePO4 with roughly 4,000 cycles and both offer a 20ms UPS switchover, so the choice is capacity and output against portability. Owners rate the 2000 v2 well as a balanced default pick; the 300 v2 has fewer ratings but a higher average, and reviewers call it the lightest in its class.

• Choose the Explorer 2000 v2 if you need to back up a fridge, run power tools or keep a room of appliances alive through an outage.
• Choose the Explorer 300 v2 if you want a light, packable pack for charging small devices and running a CPAP or mini-fridge on the move.
