This is an excellent UPS and the App works very well on my cell. Everybody should buy this Homepower 3000.
Very impressed so far, fast delivery, options are great. Husband is impressed.
Got my home 3000 and panels and have to say this was the best investment for the RV, Farm, and anyplace we need power!! Zero issues when you go with Jackery
2000w capacity is pretty good but we tried using an air conditioner (1200w) but it looked like it couldn’t provide enough for the initial surge. Aside from that, it worked enough to power most devices.
A shortfall of the device is the 400w maximum solar input. If you’re powering other devices during day time and it exceeds 400w, you won’t have enough solar input to keep it up and might not have enough battery left for the night. If it had 1000w solar input or more, it would be better
So far so good, I like the option for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi access.
The capacity is exactly what I would’ve wanted, weight and manoeuvrability is pretty great.
The real test will be the lifetime. I’m pretty sure it said something like a 10 year lifetime warranty so hopefully if I can use the battery appropriately I get that long out of it.
This type of battery does best resting below 80% capacity and doesn’t like to be depleted below 20, luckily there is a built-in battery saver mode for charging and discharging.
My intention is to let the unit charge to 100% only when I’m prepping for consistent use. Otherwise I’ve charged it to about 80% and I’m letting this sit until it’s needed, or until the intermittent uses bring it below 70%.
I’ve considered using this as an automatic battery backup for home devices, similar to an uninterruptible power supply. Though I have concerns about leaving the battery steadily charging at the 80%. It talks about automatic switch over within milliseconds, but in order to use this as a power back up, it would need to be plugged in consistently holding charge until an outage, which I worry would deplete the battery lifetime even if held at 80% consistently.
Although there was some confusion regarding the shipping in this order, I have to thank the customer service dept, especially Elena, who was very helpful in communicating with me throughout the process and ensuring the unit eventually got to me. Late, but it all worked out in the end. I'm very satisfied with my Home Power 3000 Jackery. I was fairly compensated for the troubles I had.
I have one I got 2 years ago 2000 but need a smaller one to run sleep apnea the big is for star link and charging things up love both
I am one week in as owner of the Jackery Explorer 5000. I love it! It is very user friendly and easy to figure out inputs and outputs. I have been using it with a 4400W solar panel array to charge my Tesla. Using the Nema 14-50 plug and the Tesla app to control the amperage is very helpful. I am able to control the output wattage depending on the solar input which allows me to keep the Jackery at healthy charge levels. Being able to control all of this from my phone app is amazing! We have not yet experienced a home power outage, but I almost can’t wait until we do. Thanks Jackery! This is a great product!
This battery is big but not too big for the discerning modern lady. I took this delightful contraption camping and it comfortably ran my cpap machine for 2 nights and had enough jam left in the tank to have run a third if I extended my stay. I also charged my phone once and some little flashlights on the same trip. No issues, just solid function. Good job Jackery, you did it, A+ work.
I just purchased this battery station and took it out camping. Used it for 3 days, charging phones, speakers, and pumping my paddle boards etc. still had 40% power remaining after our trip. High quality, I highly recommend.
Super smooth from transaction to delivery. No issues whatsoever. Additional warranty was an added bonus!
I ordered an explorer 5000 plus on May 10. It's mid June now...surprisingly the unit was send out with Canpar, no real tracking available. No outreach, no follow up on inquiries...I hope the unit actually works much better than the shipping. If I ever receive it. Poor customer service experience so far.
My new solar panel bag only had the 4 panels in it non of the accessories included. Can’t use them like this.
So far works as advertised. Charged my jackery 500 fully on a sunny day. Definitely way more portable than other 100w panels. Hopefully it holds up we'll see
Placed an order over 2 weeks ago, they have tired to ship out by canpar 2 times now and has not moved. Jackery just keeps saying to wait. Well when you spend $5500 you don’t want to wait and start to feel it’s a scam when this happens.
So i run a 19ft trailer for worm monday to thursday. The Jackery is treating me ok, lucky i have the ability to charge it t work. Benifits: Has an RV receptacle. Battery will run my rv fridge, laptop, and charge my phone and will last the whole night. Very easy to connect via bluetooth. Downfalls: If i run any huge draw devices, heater or AC, the battery will last about 2 to 3 hours. It's not dust or water resistant. If you have to carry the power station, the handles feel a little flimsy. I hope to expand and maybe try out some solar panels in the future. Update: jackery is sending me a car charger to change my 3 start review to a 5 start review. Once I get the car charger, I'll let you know what the charge time is in your vehicle.
