Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus

Purchased the 5000 so the wife could plug it into the manual transfer switch and just turn it on. We've had 5 power outages this year so far. I was so impressed I purchased an expansion battery. Power goes out, plug it in to the transfer switch, turn it on and flip ithe transfer switches to Generator. It's running a tv/DVD player, two inverter window ACs, a freezer and fridge, LED lights, two Coway airmegas, two small fans, some office equipment, two CPAP machines, a nebulizer, two pond pumps ... Basically we are using under 2000 Watts of power at any one time. I just got a second expansion battery and am currently charging it. We now have a 15kWh system. No solar, we gotta change it with a generator or a wall outlet. It does take almost 1800 watts to change via the AC charging cable, we have a dedicated 20 amp circuit in the house when there's power, or a dedicated 20 amp inverter generator power. I'm absolutely impressed with the ease of use. Batteries at night, Generator during the day. Hooray

So far so good!!

This is my third Jackery. And so far I’m very impressed with it just as I was with my 250 and 1000 watt. The 5000 is going to be put to work running my small woodworking shop and powering our houseboat while out at anchor.

Very Happy to with Jackery 5000 Plus

Very happy to with Jackery 5000 plus. Very easy plug-in to my existing manual transfer switch. Zip chat support extremely beneficial online with quick, detailed responses to evaluate product as well as testing procedures after purchase. Plenty of power and storage for essential home back-up at a competitive price. Only suggestion is to enable (provide an adapter) for charging above 15 amps / 1440 watts with a standard 30 amp input plug for dual fuel generator charging without having to buy the smart transfer switch. But there is a workaround using solar and gas generator simultaneously. Purchase is recommended.
