The Jackery HomePower 3000 is a 3,072 Wh home-backup station that replaces the Explorer 3000 Pro. With 3,600 W of output across four 20A outlets and one 30A outlet, it can run a fridge, lights, Wi-Fi and small appliances for one to two days, and its 20 ms UPS mode covers routers and computers. It weighs 59.5 lb, has no wheels and cannot take extra batteries.

Expect about 58 hours from a full-size fridge alone, or about a day and a half with a fridge and a chest freezer sharing the battery. A CPAP with its heated humidifier runs for about nine 8-hour nights. A Wi-Fi router and cable modem last about 104 hours, a little over four days.
One device at a time, from a full charge. Devices that cycle on and off (fridges, freezers, heaters, pumps) use their average draw.
Battery Wh × 0.85 ÷ the device’s average watts. “Can’t run it” means the device needs more than 3,600 W or a start-up surge above 7,200 W. Try your own mix in the calculator.
A full answer for each device on the Jackery HomePower 3000: hours, start-up surge and other units to consider.
If you want the most battery you can buy as one box and never think about add-ons, start here. Its 3,072 Wh is more than the base BLUETTI Apex 300 (2,765 Wh), yet it weighs about 24 lb less (59.5 lb against 83.8 lb). It also keeps the everyday ports the Apex leaves out: two USB-C, two USB-A and a 12V car port.
Against the 2,000 Wh class it is a clear step up. It holds about half again as much as the Jackery Explorer 2000 v2 (3,072 Wh against 2,042 Wh) and puts out 3,600 W instead of 2,200 W. That covers a fridge, lights, a router and a microwave at the same time. Its 30A outlet and a manual transfer switch, installed by a licensed electrician, let it feed up to six circuits in your panel, so you skip the extension cords.
The ceiling is fixed. It cannot take extra batteries, and it does not list 240V output, so a hard-wired 240V well pump or central AC needs a unit like the Apex 300, Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus or EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3. Solar tops out at 1,000 W, about 3 hours of ideal sun to refill. Jackery rates its 4,000 cycles down to 70% of capacity, not 80%.
2,765 Wh · 3,840 W output · 83.8 lb
Pick the Apex 300 if you want to grow toward a whole-home system. It starts smaller at 2,765 Wh but expands to 33,485 Wh, takes 2,400 W of solar, supplies 240V and is rated for 6,000 cycles. It has no built-in USB or 12V ports and weighs 83.8 lb.
2,042 Wh · 2,200 W output · 39.5 lb
Pick the Explorer 2000 v2 if your outages are short and you carry the station around. It weighs 39.5 lb, 20 lb less, and refills from the wall in about 1 hour 45 minutes. It holds 2,042 Wh and puts out 2,200 W.
