Jackery Explorer 1000 v2: runtime & specs
1,070 Wh · 1,500 W continuous AC · 400 W max solar input · LFP (LiFePO4). Specs below are the manufacturer's published figures — continuous and surge watts are separate numbers here, because they are separate numbers in reality.

What it runs, and for how long
Estimates use our published formula — capacity × 0.85 ÷ load, duty cycle applied to cycling loads, and a start check against the surge rating (methodology). Loads that fail the start check are marked, not given a fake runtime.

Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 questions
How long will the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 run a refrigerator?
About 3.2 hours for a typical fridge at a 40% compressor duty cycle (700 W nameplate draw while running), using our standard formula: 1,070 Wh × 0.85 ÷ 280 W average. That is the duty-cycled figure; the same station runs the fridge for about 1.3 hours if the compressor never cycles off.
How long will it run a CPAP?
About 22.7 hours at 40 W — a typical CPAP without a heated humidifier — or roughly 2.8 nights at 8 hours a night. With a heated humidifier (~90 W) expect about 10.1 hours. That's device runtime math only; see the CPAP calculator for your device's actual wattage.
How long does it take to recharge from solar?
With 400 W of panels, the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 needs about 3.4 hours of full sun for a full charge after the 0.78 real-world derate. Try other panel sizes in the solar charging calculator.
