Jackery Explorer 2000 v2 + 2 × SolarSaga 200W Features
- Bifacial Solar Panel Design - The included SolarSaga 200W panels feature a bifacial design, allowing the rear side to capture reflected sunlight in addition to direct sunlight reaching the front. Jackery lists a bifaciality coefficient above 70% for Pmax on the current panel.
- Under-20ms UPS Switching - The Explorer 2000 v2 can switch to battery power in under 20 milliseconds, helping compatible routers, computers, NAS devices, and other equipment remain powered during an outage.
- Approximately 1.7-Hour AC Charging - High-speed AC charging can restore the Explorer 2000 v2 from 0–100% in approximately 1.7 hours, helping get the system ready quickly before an outage or trip.
- Quiet Indoor Operation - Jackery lists operating noise at approximately 30 dB in Quiet Mode and 45 dB at full load, measured from one meter away. This makes the unit suitable for indoor backup and nighttime operation where lower noise is preferred.
- Compact 2kWh Design - Despite its 2042Wh capacity, the Explorer weighs approximately 39.5 lbs (17.9 kg) and measures 13.2 × 10.4 × 11.5 inches, making it relatively compact for a 2kWh-class portable power station.
