The Jackery HomePower 1000 Plus v2 Red Cross Edition is a portable power station for home backup, job sites, temporary worksites and off-grid work. It has an 1800W continuous output and a 3600W peak, and it can run corded power tools such as chainsaws, angle grinders and table saws. It can also power cameras, monitors, LED lights, radios, heating devices and phones.
The unit weighs 23.8 lbs and measures 12.4 × 7.9 × 9.2 in, so it can be carried one-handed. It has a pure sine wave output and runs at under 30dB in Silent Mode. The UPS switchover takes less than 10 ms, and 3kV surge protection helps protect a refrigerator's compressor from power surges. It is designed for 6,000 charging cycles and up to 16 years of battery life, and automotive-grade CTB construction adds structural strength.
Storm Alert Mode charges the unit to 100% when severe weather is forecast and sends a notification in the Jackery App. Emergency Power Reserve lets you set a battery percentage to keep in reserve and unlock it in the app. The app also shows battery status and remaining runtime, schedules charging for off-peak electricity rates, and prioritizes essential devices as the battery runs low. Storm Alert Mode requires the unit to stay connected to AC power and the internet.
