The Explorer 2000 Plus in brief

Solar input of 1,400 W is the highest among the 19 stations in the 1,500 to 2,500 Wh class, and it is the first thing to know about the Explorer 2000 Plus. Through a DC8020 port that takes 17.5 V to 60 V at up to 24 A, a full solar charge takes just 1.9 h; the wall takes 2 h. Output is 3,000 W AC with 6,000 W of surge. The 2,042.8 Wh pack weighs 61.5 lb, and Jackery says it can support up to 5 battery packs, which brings the system to 12,256.8 Wh. A refrigerator runs 19 h to 50 h, a gas furnace blower 2 h to 5.8 h and a 1,500 W microwave 1.2 h to 1.7 h. The warranty is 3 years, plus 2 more if bought from Jackery.

How long the Explorer 2000 Plus runs things

Times use about 85% of the rated capacity, the part left after inverter and battery losses. The 1,736 Wh usable estimate is what drains under heavy loads: a 1,575 W space heater lasts 1.1 h to 1.3 h, and a 1,875 W hair dryer 56 min to 58 min.

Solar panels for the Explorer 2000 Plus

Its DC8020 port takes 17.5 to 60 V, up to 24 A and 1,400 W. A panel's voltage rises in the cold, so the marks below show each one at 14 F, and a pass here keeps 10% of headroom under the maximum.

17.5 V 60 V maximum 53 V, SolarSaga 500 X 48 V, 2 x SolarSaga 200 50 V, 2 x SolarSaga 100 Prime 27 V, SolarSaga 100 32 V, SolarSaga 100 Air 27 V, SolarSaga 100 Light 28 V, SolarSaga 40 Air
