The Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus is a home backup power station with LiFePO4 cells. This bundle includes the Explorer 5000 Plus and one Battery Pack 5000 Plus. System capacity ranges from 5 to 60 kWh. The AC output is 7200 W, with a 14400 W surge, and it has 12 output ports for running several appliances at once.
It has two backup modes. Online mode switches over in 0 ms, for sensitive devices such as PCs, Wi-Fi routers and NAS drives. Backup mode switches in under 20 ms and uses less energy. The unit supports 120V/240V dual voltage and has five ways to charge, including 4000W solar input. Through the app, you set a backup power level. Above it, the system prioritizes solar charging. When the battery drops below it, the system switches to hybrid solar and AC charging.
The unit has built-in wheels and a handle. It includes ChargeShield 2.0 protection for the battery and connected devices. The smart transfer switch, which routes power to essential circuits, is not included.
