5040Wh LiFePO4 Battery, Expandable to 60kWh

Start with Days of Power. Scale to Weeks.

The Explorer 5000 Plus is built around a 5040Wh lithium iron phosphate battery pack, and its modular architecture allows capacity to be expanded in increments up to 60kWh — enough to power a home for up to 13 days on a single charge.

• 5040Wh base LiFePO4 battery capacity (45Ah / 112V DC) for sustained whole-home power

• Expandable to 60kWh by connecting up to 10 Jackery Battery Pack 5000 Plus expansion units

• 4,000+ charge cycles to 70% or greater capacity retention

• Battery cell lifespan of up to 11 years with regular use

• Cell-to-Body (CTB) structural integration for increased energy density and mechanical durability

• LiFePO4 chemistry provides superior thermal stability, long cycle life, and safer long-term operation compared to standard lithium-ion

LiFePO4 battery chemistry and CTB structural engineering combine to give the Explorer 5000 Plus the capacity, durability, and safety margin required for reliable whole-home power across years of regular use.

7200W Dual-Voltage Output with 14,400W Surge

120V and 240V Power for Every Appliance in Your Home

The Explorer 5000 Plus delivers 7200W of continuous pure sine wave output across both 120V and 240V split-phase circuits, and when paired with a second Explorer 5000 Plus unit, combined output reaches 14,400W continuous — covering virtually every appliance and circuit in a standard home.

• AC Output (x4): 120V~60Hz, 20A, NEMA 5-20 outlets for standard household devices

• AC Split-Phase Output: 240V~60Hz, 7200W continuous (14,400W surge) for large appliances and HVAC

• L14-30 Twist Lock Generator Port for whole-home transfer switch and generator circuit compatibility

• USB-C Output (x2): 100W Max each for fast charging of laptops and high-powered devices

• USB-A Output (x2): 18W Max each, Quick Charge 3.0 for broad device compatibility

• Car Port (x1): 12V / 10A for 12V accessory operation

With full split-phase 240V output and 12 simultaneous output ports, the Explorer 5000 Plus supports the full electrical load of a standard home, from lighting and small electronics to central air conditioning, well pumps, and electric dryers.

Online UPS with 0ms Switchover and Smart Transfer Switch Integration

Instant, Automatic Protection the Moment the Grid Fails

The Explorer 5000 Plus operates as an online UPS, meaning its inverter is always active and connected devices experience zero interruption at the moment of a grid failure — no transfer time, no reset, no data loss.

• Online UPS mode: 0ms switchover for completely seamless transition from grid to battery power

• Always-on inverter keeps connected devices running without any detectable interruption

• Compatible with the Jackery Smart Transfer Switch for whole-home automatic backup without manual rewiring

• Protects computers, medical equipment, network infrastructure, and sensitive electronics from power disruptions

• Reserve UPS mode also available for reduced standby power consumption with sub-20ms switchover

The Explorer 5000 Plus's online UPS architecture ensures that even the most sensitive electronics, from CPAP machines to home servers, continue operating without interruption at the moment grid power is lost.

4000W Solar Input and Fast Recharge

Rapid Solar Recharging for True Energy Independence

The Explorer 5000 Plus supports high-wattage solar input across both high-voltage and low-voltage configurations, enabling fast solar recharging from a full array of Jackery SolarSaga panels and a variety of third-party photovoltaic systems.

• High-voltage solar input: Up to 4000W Max at 135-450V DC for full recharge in as little as 1.7 hours

• Low-voltage solar input: Up to 1200W Max at under 60V DC for standard panel compatibility

• AC wall input: 1800W Max for grid-connected recharging

• Supports simultaneous multi-source input for maximum recharge speed and flexibility

• Compatible with Jackery SolarSaga solar panels including the SolarSaga 500X and SolarSaga 200W

• High-voltage PV input enables full recharge of the 5040Wh battery in approximately 1.7 hours under optimal solar conditions

The 4000W high-voltage solar input capability makes the Explorer 5000 Plus one of the fastest solar-rechargeable portable power systems available, enabling true energy independence for homes, cabins, and off-grid properties.

Portable Whole-Home Form Factor with Built-In Rolling Mobility

Home Backup Power That Goes Where It Is Needed

Unlike fixed standby generators, the Explorer 5000 Plus is designed to be repositioned, stored, and deployed as needed, with integrated mobility features that make it practical for a single person to move.

• Rolling wheel base for easy repositioning across floors and outdoor surfaces

• Heavy-duty telescoping carry handle for one-person maneuverability
